It's SOOOO CUTE!!!!!!!! I'm not a fan of the bus mirrors. Needs old school west coast with spot mirrors too and bottom. That way you can see the top corners of the camper. "Texas Pyrometer" style.
Hey Mike just had a real rush of a sales pitch for the maxi truck!!! Tell Andrea that if you get the pick up then when you take her on another over night run to LA to shop at her favorite store! Think about the comfort (ie: sleeper) she could have plus extra room for purchases! Plus you could get a bumper sticker made up saying I bought this truck at Pacific Peterbilt of St George BC...... Its a idea to ponder! Im rooting for ya!
Mike I watched again you playing wit the mini KW...I think we will see this in your driveway before too long! Andrea will love it! She might decide it is hers!!
I LOVE IT BUDDY. JUST RITE TO PULL MY BASS BOAT. I ACTUALLY CAME HOME ONE WEEKEND AN MADE A HITCH TO PULL MY LITTLE BOAT WITH MY LONG HOOD PETE. MY FRIENDS LAUGHED BUT MY SON AN I HAD BEST FISHING TRIP EVER. HE WAS ABOUT 8. NOW HES BEEN TRUCKING FOR 15 OR SO. I DROVE ALMOST 50YRS AN IM RETIRED NOW. LOVE THE CAB OVERS.
I'm so much more at home in a road tractor. I'm retired of almost 50yrs trucking an I started in 1970. I can get around so much better in a truck. Being old 99% of what I drove were cab overs.
Thank you so much for showing this great looking KW ( pickup 5th. Wheel hauler) What a great idea. Everyday driver, no problem Fuel economy excellent. For the price you pay for a new Pickup with duel rears. That price you said a guy should buy this truck instead of a custom built Pickup. It should sell, YES you better pick it up before someone else does. Just asking, do they make those with a Manuel transmission, just thinking of a split shift. My 71 SeaGrave has a 8-71 Detroit, with no water in it's 750 gallon tank. It gets into 5th. Gear with progress shifting so fast. And it slows down great, no down shifting.
Mike, you asked what we think. I think you should BUY IT, BUY IT, BUY IT! You want to BUY IT, BUY IT, BUY IT! We'd like you to BUY IT, BUY IT, BUY IT! You need to BUY IT, BUY IT, BUY IT!...BUT IT! Like Micheal Dittmer and some others in this thread suggested, you could sell off anything that is duplicate, possibly including your present RV, (and buy a fifth wheel camper to replace that, of course!) to help with purchasing it. You really like it, and you were really enjoying yourself during the test rip you took. You looked to be in heaven! Plus, it is sorta red, your favorite color! What's not to love?
Mike, we all agree you should get it, even if it means getting rid of one or two of the other trucks. If you don't get it you will probably be saying to yourself down the road... I should have bought it, darn. .....When opportunity knocks.....
You should get it..thats a life choice for sure ....It would be a lot less stress to own and you would have alot more spare time on your hands than building the cabovers..
I would like one please in that color or lime green or midnight blue if not a KW but and old School Shaker would work great also and or a Peterbilt 362 would work great also
O-H-I-O Porter greetings!🇺🇸 We’re still cabover crazy here in Ohio…all 3 of us boys!🥰 I recently heard someone say that these little KW hotshots/RV are too truck looking & acting! I do somewhat agree, but most trucks weren’t designed to be in the same category as pickups. You mentioned that they’re built to be responsive either like a truck or pickup & not both. Well, that’s what I got from it.🧐 Thanks for clearing that up a bit. Well, you have to give us an update…YOU GONNA BUY IT OR WHAT?! Don’t hesitate or it will be gone & you will regret it for sure! If I were going to build a truck like this, this would surely fit my example of what I want/need/like. I got the feeling that it was scaled down a bit, but that’s actually OK. This would be a truck that I would definitely look at on any lot!🤩 Don’t tease us & make us wait! Get this thing or make it available to someone who will really appreciate it! 🥰😎✌️
GM had the Chevy Kodiak/GMC Top Kick pickups, Ford had the F550 and International had the MXT family of pickups. Now if the exhaust was underneath the truck and had four doors......
I don't know much about trucks but l just love the overall look of that one. Just a great little truck and l bet it gets a lot of admiring looks from passersby irrespective of whether or not they're trucking enthusiasts. I'd love to be able to afford that truck and have that shipped to New Zealand to be used as a daily drive. 😂
Ya mike that sweet, but to bad it's a med duty chasis and only a 5spd. I built my own pete hauler last year and. Shorten it to basically the size of a f350 crew cab longed Ford. Check it out . Also wish that KW had pwr windows
mike i also agree buy it then trade the motorhome in for a fifth wheel and just drive into the driveway and suprise the wife but one thing red isnt that your favorite colour
That is a beautiful, good looking little - big truck . I can see where that it would definitely be great to pull a RV trailer with . Thanks for making us the video and I will see you later, so take care and stay safe . 🤗👍💖💫
Mike you should have the dealership buy it and you finance it through them. Plus if you register your YT channel as an LLC you can write it off. Oh, forgot you’re in Canada so not sure if the same tax laws apply.
I saw the video on getting the K100 going and I forgot to subscribe, then I couldn’t find your videos. RUclips Algorithms have been kind enough to show your videos again and I won’t make that mistake twice! I am an ATS Sim Player and enjoying the Pete 362. Great videos thank you.
"Andrea, honey, love, sweetheart........ Er, you know how much I love you.......Please can I...........?! You'd love it honey..........". Worth a try, even if it means another roadtrip to California........!😉 👍 Awesome bit of kit. It'd be a superstar a few thousand miles east of BC! I didn't realise that Canadian law required qualification to drive a vehicle with air brakes. Is it the same in the US? There's nothing like that in UK legislation: We're trained and tested according to vehicle size, configuration and weight. Every day is a school day!😁👍 Thanks for another interesting video Mike, much appreciated.
I was all for it but you lost me with the automatic transmission & no air breaks, if it had air breaks & a manual transmission it would be perfect LOL.
I drove T600's hauling horses, a lot of horses owners with unlimited funds buy those very common in the horse business, problem with the T600's if your big like I am you need a shoe horn to get in them, never liked them too small, mostly did my hauling in a T660 class 8.
That is an awesome pickup truck! Andrea might not like you buying another truck, especially one that expensive, but I bet she would appreciate the ease of getting into and out of it without climbing up and down the side of a COE. The interior looks super comfortable.
"Andrea - guess what, I bought another pickup and YOU'LL LOVE IT."
Buy it Mike, even if you have to let something else go it’s worth it
That truck is fantastic
I love that black tri drive in the background, those stacks look massive makes it look a proper beast
It's SOOOO CUTE!!!!!!!! I'm not a fan of the bus mirrors. Needs old school west coast with spot mirrors too and bottom.

Better not get caught in Commifornia with a deleted motor.
22MPG?!? That's insane!
Mike I watched again you playing wit the mini KW...I think we will see this in your driveway before too long! Andrea will love it! She might decide it is hers!!
OMG !! My wife would wonder just where the heck I am, If I bough that. International harvester (IH) had a pickup truck. But I love this a lot more.
I LOVE IT BUDDY. JUST RITE TO PULL MY BASS BOAT. I ACTUALLY CAME HOME ONE WEEKEND AN MADE A HITCH TO PULL MY LITTLE BOAT WITH MY LONG HOOD PETE. MY FRIENDS LAUGHED BUT MY SON AN I HAD BEST FISHING TRIP EVER. HE WAS ABOUT 8. NOW HES BEEN TRUCKING FOR 15 OR SO. I DROVE ALMOST 50YRS AN IM RETIRED NOW. LOVE THE CAB OVERS.
A truck like that I'd make my daily driver. It's gorgeous
Hi James how are you doing😊
That's the coolest pickup truck that I've ever seen.
Stop hoggin' all the trucks, Mike! 😆
I'm so much more at home in a road tractor. I'm retired of almost 50yrs trucking an I started in 1970. I can get around so much better in a truck. Being old 99% of what I drove were cab overs.
Okay will you make me regret and suffer that I have no family except God and you
I love trucks but peterbilt the best 👌 👍 😍

Lol right! I only have one snag.... Her name is Andrea bahahaha... Maybe I could build a Peterbilt like this 🤔
Wow that's cool and the fact that any one can drive it makes it that much cooler 😎
That is a sweet ride, I want one
Supper looking truck, that would be great to use for a 5th wheel travel trailer.
Mike, we all agree you should get it, even if it means getting rid of one or two of the other trucks. If you don't get it you will probably be saying to yourself down the road... I should have bought it, darn. .....When opportunity knocks.....
Hey Mike that truck is bad-ass That sure would look good parked in your driveway You should definitely pull the trigger on this one👍👍💯
I am really impressed by that little truck! That thing is cool!
Wow. I love it . And it's a kw .. my favorite otr truck to drive .. from a retired otr owner operator. Got any more information on her ?
I hope you can score this one eventually... It is so cool 😎 and it would be quite an attention getter at Car Shows and Truck Shows!!
Think you better hang on to this one! It’s a keeper!
Enjoy your varied content. Keep up the great work!
Thank you :)
COOL LITTLE TRUCK , BUY IT !!
As a highschool and college kid my dream truck was the international version of that truck cxt was coolest truck on the market at the time
I love it
Oh it's period red, how nice.
Its a nice truck. Basically a t270 like what a lot of rollbacks are, with a standard kenworth 42" flattop sleeper.
You should get it..thats a life choice for sure ....It would be a lot less stress to own and you would have alot more spare time on your hands than building the cabovers..
Dang.. that's bad ass!!
You Definitely Need to Buy this. 👍🇺🇸
I would like one please in that color or lime green or midnight blue if not a KW but and old School Shaker would work great also and or a Peterbilt 362 would work great also

I should just build a new one, but new is like at least a year away. If they would let me use one of our alocations.
GM had the Chevy Kodiak/GMC Top Kick pickups, Ford had the F550 and International had the MXT family of pickups. Now if the exhaust was underneath the truck and had four doors......
Buy it Mike it's got your name on it it's amazing you only live once it's toys for the boys 👦 cheers 🍻 Mike 🎉respect 🙏 👍 👏

You Brought the Wrong truck Man 👨. Greetings from Angola 🇦🇴.
Mike you should have the dealership buy it and you finance it through them. Plus if you register your YT channel as an LLC you can write it off. Oh, forgot you’re in Canada so not sure if the same tax laws apply.
Mike , That truck would be great for your Dad; You should buy it as a gift for your Dad.
Only thing I would change is 22.5 on low pros or 24.5 on low pros
Man that is beautiful
I saw the video on getting the K100 going and I forgot to subscribe, then I couldn’t find your videos. RUclips Algorithms have been kind enough to show your videos again and I won’t make that mistake twice! I am an ATS Sim Player and enjoying the Pete 362. Great videos thank you.
Awesome thank you for coming back 🙏🏼
You definitely should buy it if I lived in Canada I would be there in a flash
"Andrea, honey, love, sweetheart........ Er, you know how much I love you.......Please can I...........?! You'd love it honey..........". Worth a try, even if it means another roadtrip to California........!😉 👍

Now thats a truck.
I was all for it but you lost me with the automatic transmission & no air breaks, if it had air breaks & a manual transmission it would be perfect LOL.

I'd like to build one with a new Peterbilt 537 with a 58" flat top sleeper. Then a guy could get the seat back far enough for us tall guys.
Damn paccar ! I was hoping to see a cat under the hood.
Hello Mike This is really something for you 👌. You need it Greetings from the Netherlands 🇳🇱🇳🇱
It's a great investment Mike , you should buy it !
At least it’s equipped with the right badge 😏
I reckon Andrea wants you to have it 😜
Andrea does not. 🤣
That's a tractor that's been converted into a pickup truck and it's pretty big,I'm sure it can be used for medium hauling
Don't do it Mike. Think of all the handbag trips you will have to do to pay for it. 😆
🤣🤣🤣
Lol, yeah although this would be a nicer place to sleep than the back of a VW Gold
Sell the Super duty & the motor home and replace them with this truck and a new fifth wheel camper. Fair trade for sure!!
Add a nice gooseneck trailer with the hydraulic tail and winch to haul projects
International made some massive pickups.
I like that truck
Sell it to vice grip garage !! They could use it with a car hauler trailer. He wouldn"t have to drive his cars home after he buys them any more !!
First thought: Squirrel! Second thought: Oh, he's working and being a salesman.
If you don't buy it ....... I WILL !!!
Mike you need this truck in your life
I love it ,do you need a cdl to drive it?
That's nice I would love a mini truck
I feel a name change coming on PACCAR Mike. Nice truck, is that similar to a T180, We don't have them in Aus.
If I had that ...Def make it my D d!!! Awesome truck!
👍🐺🧙♂️🐺👍!
you should of tested the air horns and if i had the money i so would buy that
That's an awesome truck!
You have to buy this and a trailer to haul trucks. Together with Andrea cruising in comfort
It’s a long way from the cabover he built many years ago.
Buy it ....you know it makes sense mike 🚛🚛🚛🚛🤣🤣...Andrea wont mind 👍👍👍👍
Lol 😇
I’d be interested if it truly comes up for sale. I’m down in the Southern Willamette Valley of Oregon so it could continue to live on the West coast.
Awesome!
Maybe a approach would be sell the super duty would not need that anymore just do it Mike u know you want too 👍👋🇨🇦
Well it's not flat nose toter home however I guess it'll work
You gotta have it mike
I love it too.
What the towing capacity?
Buy it MIKE!
That is an awesome pickup truck! Andrea might not like you buying another truck, especially one that expensive, but I bet she would appreciate the ease of getting into and out of it without climbing up and down the side of a COE. The interior looks super comfortable.
They made the CXT international into a pickup
