I'm glad to hear the X15's have been good and has done you well from the financial standpoint. Nothing worse than dealing with a broken truck and not being able take more loads.
Glad it’s worked out good so far. I know the earlier model of those def/dpf trucks had lots of emission issues. Keep the videos coming I’m enjoying them!
Man it's good to see you and Sally again. I love your trucks and your videos.. I know you're a busy man with all your doing.. but I wish there were more videos. Call me selfish. Hahaha. Keep em coming when you can. Stay safe and give Sally a pet for me.
i was wandering about the wandering pete. good to hear on the x15 pete. we got a 2020 western star and a wiring harness went bad and it costed me alot of down time because they coudn't find the problem and it took out are AC, It was a bad deal. My driver tied down a generator in the back and put a home AC in truck. It was ridiculous.
I have been itching for a while at a new truck. I just finished doing both rear in my orange 94 pete this morning.. thats been a great truck. 3406E tuned to 650hp. I have a hard time walking away for my Caterpillar. But as i get older to desire for a quitter more comfortable truck makes me think about it more and more
@Adventures of Trucker186 yes has new shocks and seat. Truck is a 94 so it was one of the last non unibilt trucks. A unibilt sleeper setup rides much nicer and has a big hole in the cab. I was planning on cutting hole bigger. But not sure is its work converting it to a true unibilt sleeper. Maybe we will have to see
Where would you post for sale. I’ll be in the market for one used next year. Need to replace my old truck for California regulations. Serious serious buyer👍🏼
I wish I could say the same. My company recently let me spec a new Kenworth T800 with a Cummins X15 605/2050 I’ll be picking it up from the dealer for the 3rd time in 18,000 miles and it’s yet to be fixed, it’s driven like absolute garbage since the day I got it and I’ve received little to no support from my local Kenworth dealer and local Cummins dealer, my previous T800 with a deleted ISX 475/1650 would run circles around the 2022 any day of the week
Thanks for the video and the update on the X-15.. I have one as well just turned over 365,000 with 7000 engine hours. I do have a APU unit and do not idle unnecessarily. A strong reliable engine so far no issues at all. Have you replace your shocks on your tractor? I have not, trucks been feeling a little squirrelly lately I believe I need new shocks. I am planning on trading mine this month as well matter of fact I am waiting on a phone call from my dealership my truck is supposed to be available in November. Again I enjoyed your video!
why do yous swap out trucks so frequently.. the money to trade in and buy new must be crippling.. could run that engine for 2million miles im sure in that time you would of went through what 5 trades.. so if youre loosing more than 20% on a trade in which im positive you are then it doesnt make financial sense.. run the trucks until theyre too unreliable to run
@@AndrewBrowner 2 million miles? This is an EPA engine. These new POS engines can barely hit 750k miles before it puts the owner out of business with downtime and what not. Plus the EGR constantly pumping dirty soot air back into these engines. I've only personally seen one EPA engine in my entire life that made it to 1 million miles. That was from a guy who does 12,000 mile oil changes. Idk what you're talking about, 2 million miles? lol
Great videos man I just bumped into your channel. I’m leased to a company pulling an ammonia battle. I got a question I want to get my DOT and own trailer to pull food grade. I live in Iowa I’ve been asking how to get loads and no one wants to give me info. Can you tell us how you got Started How you get loads and all that stuff
7/8 months is when I’m looking to buy 🤔 wonder if I can’t be lined up to get it off you or the dealers hands. Where are you ordering from if you don’t mind me asking
to compare that truck i drove a ford conventionial half long nose detroit engine in 83 80000 lbs i toped the big hill in nebraska at 20mph or 10mph i literally coulda jumped out door and ran along side of it
Why a new one? Maintenance free? I assume that and the warranty. People don't realize you are better off to màke larger payments on new trucks than small ones on old ones. Labor, parts, downtime,stress are more than bigger payments.
you should have a air starter on her lol when i was 13 my dad said climb on up old mack it was cold and shut off he hit a button and the air starter was so loud i was screaming omg yes! weird i know but i was hooked after that
300,000 miles is nothing. My 1998 w900 3406e is at 1.1million. original motor hasn't been touched. Besides a few age related wiring problems it just runs and runs.
I would put money on it that my n14 pulls better and gets better fuel mileage than that truck and it’s more reliable! Young guys watch this! If you have common sense you can actually have more freedom and reliability from a 90s model truck and you don’t have to run elog! That’s my opinion and it’s worked for me and for an old truck my 379 and 359 are no slouch when it comes to looks. I don’t know why more people don’t raise hell about the crappy def system all that carbon goes right back into the engine. That is a 6 maybe 7 hundred thousand engine if your lucky!
Been there done that with the old trucks. They’re terrible. It’s not the engines that are bad, it’s the 34 year old wiring, seals, and valves. New trucks are far more efficient and cost effective. I don’t know what all this freedom people with old trucks are always carrying on about. The whole time I was running old ones I was always broke as all get out and having to turn work away because my truck was always down. Then I finally got smart and bought a brand new one, then I found out that freedom was parking it in the yard and completely forgetting about it until I wanted to go again. Freedom was having more money than I’d ever had in my life 3 months after buying that new truck. Freedom is not having to worry about what dingy roadside park your driver is calling from telling you your truck is broke down……again. I even went and bought another old truck a few months back because I absolutely had to have the capacity and it’s been nothing but a money pit and a headache. I can’t wait to get it off my feed bill and actually replace it with something that makes me money. You don’t have reliability from 90s model trucks. I’ve owned several, and every single one was a bottomless bucket to throw money at. PS: I make way more money hauling loads with an elog than I ever did laying under one with a paper log.
@@wanderingpete3196 you must get bad ones I don’t seem to have them problems must new wire harnesses are made in Mexico and are junk. We have a lot of x15 constant check engine lights and emissions sensor lights, dosing problems. I don’t agree with your opinion I hope young people don’t listen to it. If you get an average of 4 dollars a mile one way every mile you won’t be broke.

I drive local now and never had an interest in otr until I see these beautiful trucks makes me wanna try it out

Saw your cream colored Pete in Ca this am, looking good!
Saw that sweet ride in vaughn n.m. couple weeks ago it stands out. not too much just enough
Good to hear👍👍👍
Nice video thank you
Aww, I've missed Lil Sally!
You are a good "Sally- Daddy"!!!
Roll on...
:)
nice trucks for sure!!
Man them Kelly KDA are the best drive tires you can buy. They've been building them unchanged for 25+ years.

My 379 has 1.7 million on it. Obviously the engine, trans, radiator, rears have all been done.

These do ride good, I’m in a 2021 and it very smooth
What is your high and low oil pressure on the Cummins.
Thanks.
Where would you post for sale. I’ll be in the market for one used next year. Need to replace my old truck for California regulations. Serious serious buyer👍🏼
What mpg are you getting on the x15 performance?
"i gotta take this paper floor matt out of the truck... i got a load of things to do today" ... yepppp that sums it up doesnt it
Hope you had a fantastic Xmas
Love that Sally!!
