"Do I got one arm or something!" LOLOL new truck and big surprise???.. following. nice vid thanks for the info.
Thanks for the honest review. The No cruise while using wipers is a deal breaker for me. It's a nice truck but fundamentally impractical if you ask me.
It turns out not all Pete’s are equal at Prime😳…sssshhhhhhh😂
Great info!
Man I sure could this horn. Love the sound.
What's the mpg difference? If you're driving similarly on both
Can you fit your cooler refrigerator sideways on that top bunk with the bunk folded up?
Nice review there brother keep up the great content
Thnx Obryant👊
I like the looks of the Pete without the aerodynamic stuff better. Also, I don’t like how mine coasts. It seems like it coasts too much.
Cascadias have the manual mode shift as well. Prime just locks you out of it just like preformance mode. With 2 trucks I went over to the tractor shop to have them turn manual mode on and they never gave me a hard time. Never asked about Preformance mode. Ive ran it once in my new truck and i didnt see enough change so Ive always kept it back in economy.
With the wipers that’s completely backwards for me, although I’m in a KW T680 here at prime. The freight liners as soon as you went over speed 3 with wipers it shut off cruise also always turned on the head lights. My KW I can go max wipers and never turn the cruise off or turn my lights on. I really wish I could buy this truck!
Love the review....... driving a Cascadia makes me want a 579 now because of the crappy roads......stay safe out there......😁
Thanks bro, it’s definitely smoother that the Fr8ShakeR
Excellent review
Thnx Brother! Hope all is well with you and yours!
Beautiful Peterbilt 579, I understand that it is new but which one is better? 579 or 389? for long journeys
What is the color u have of blue seen there is 4 options of nlue
Pete is definitely the way to go. And since crossing over 150k miles with mine I’ve notice improved fuel economy. Stay safe brother 🇺🇸🤙🏼
which engine do you have x15 or paccar? if you r running paccar what are your thoughts on mx 13 paccar engines
@@Gtown9011 all Prime inc trucks run the Paccar engines. I’ve personally have had zero issues with it. Pulls up hill pretty good and if you keep your speed and rpm low 60-62 mph and under 1400 rpm the mpg is very good.
@@Pokerhead1776 whats the year of your truck, Hp, torque and gear ratio ? Also if you dont mind telling me if you do upto 80000 lbs of gvwr woth either dry van or reefer. Thanks brother much appreciate it.
Fighting to shut the small door on the passenger side, the nav/launcher system randomly shutting off, curtains popping out, not being able to use cruise after the third wiper setting are the same issues my 2020 Peterbilt has 😆
Hey Brother Does Prime Allow People To Install A Aftermarket System I Got My Audio Plug In Houston who does my work their jobs in my pickup are in my channel they do cars pickups and semis
What do I only have one arm? Made me crack up!
Well?!…DO I?!😂😂👊👊👊
Jim was here 🎉
Is there a Cummings option for the motor? Also are the rear drive axles single or dual power? And do they allow you to select the gear ratio you want as well?
Yes there is a cummins X15 option.
😂😂😂 man i HATE AUTO-CREEP MODE!!! I have definitely slammed into a dock at 2-3 mph and maaaannnn.. heart attack!!!
It’s definitely an eye opener EVERY TIME!!!😂
One big problem in the pete is that junk ass Paccar motor!
I hate that they have that flow below fairings on. They're such a pain in the ass to get to the fifth wheel release and check your brakes. And let me guess, Prime won't let you take them off.
I love the Bible verse 🙌 🙏
what kind of blue is that? I saw different blues in the list but I don't know what the name of that blue is!
Sovereign Blue / Peterbilt Code L0347
Great video bit you forgot to mention the fridge
They don’t come with the truck though you have to pay extra for that
@@angeldedmon I know the fridge size
It’s a fridge, it cools stuff. Now you know😍😂
@@fr8sk8r haha no. You can only put a tiny fridge in the Pete that the negative.
#petegang
The Peterbilt is the best 💪👏
If you like having faults constantly popping up on the dash
So are you happy with the new pete? Is it worth the money you paid?
Love it!!
@@angeldedmon wooo.. congrats
Ty!!
It seems there's a lot of customization to be had on the BCUs and ECUs found in these trucks. On this KW I'm in, it's an option in the customization menu whether or not the cruise remains on with wiper activation. It can be set to shut the cruise off with wiper activation - though you can flick it on and off briefly to clear the windshield without triggering it - or to remain on even with wiper use. I usually leave it set to turn off with wiper use since it's not a good idea to drive in heavy rain with cruise on anyway.
One thing I've noticed with this KW is it chronically forgets user customized settings, then you have to go through and set everything the way you want it again. So someone somewhere at PACCAR must not know what they're doing with regards to memory management or something along those lines.
I agree that the build quality is far above that of Freightliner. This is somewhat ironic since Freightliner is basically Mercedes-Benz. I would expect more from MB given their reputation for quality.
Why is it not good to drive in heavy rain with cruise on? I've been driving for 40 yrs and never had a problem or felt unsafe with it on during heavy rain. It's not like I had my right foot on the dash or laying on the passenger seat so far away from the brake pedal that would cause an issue.
Think the cruise issue is to do with standing water. If your wipers are on the higher level, there's more rain and more chance of standing water. Supposedly a bad idea running cruise in those conditions. I've personally never had an issue though
The only thing I don’t like is the Pete’s that Prime orders seem to be the ugliest ones. They don’t put the black side skirts and the gap in between cab and fuel tanks is like a mile long. Other companies like DOT have some really nice Pete’s.
On the new ones coming in they will all have the filler piece and air dams. Don’t know why they weren’t on there from the start but they are now :) we agree though
@@angeldedmon Thats good to know. Thanks
Only thing I wish peterbilt had was a Murphy bed option! I’m seriously considering going back to FL for that option alone. I love the ride of my kw most everything on this truck. I wish they would give us more HP 400 is just not enough. The Pete’s have 455HP not sure why prime does it that way. There’s pros and cons to both, right now it’s a tough decision on which one to buy. A year ago I would’ve said only Pete never a FL, now I’m not so sure. I hope Pete’s are more reliable than they used to be. My KW with X15 has been extremely reliable! I’m also planning to order a manual so the weird e coast will no longer be a concern for me.
If you were to choose to go down the owner operator how would spect your truck would you go with 455 hp pr got to 500hp engine or even go all the way up to 605 hp engine?
@@dustind3960 I’d go with a 475hp 1850 tq spec no matter the engine choice. Unless I needed more hp then I’d go 550 1850 tq
Right on with the manual transmission choice. I HATE that COAST action on these auto's.
dude ditch those tires like yesterday. Get the grip d super singles from Michelin. You're asking to get stuck on a thin layer of snow come winter time.
You shouldn’t be using super singles to begin with
@@user-FTRU6GJ That's what the trucks come with and it'll cost about around 10k to switch to duals and not everybody has that kinda money lying around just to switch.
@@armandbroxton1879 why do all the prime trucks come with super singles? Prime one of the very few companies that runs super singles
@@user-FTRU6GJ They are delivered to the terminal with duals then switched to super singles before they're given to drivers. To them, it's cost effective as a fleet. Every driver has their own opinion on it.
Can you still order the top of the line PLATINUM INTERIOR ? ON 579
They come with platinum at prime
whats the base model interior?
Can't beat a pete !!!
Isn’t the maintenance costs higher with the Pete?
C,Q,&A #17
@@fr8sk8r thanks mate. Looking forward to it. Shoutout for great content from the UK.
Thank You for the support and interest!👊
I am here to know what to buy in American Truck Simulator :D
soon the 579 next gen :)
Hmm i never had to use bungies when fueling my cascadia 😂
Well, you obviously haven’t had a fuel nozzle fall out mid fueling and the nozzle keep pumping fuel on the ground 😂 I pray it never happens to ya. It happened once to me, #neveragain lol
Freightliner is the best OTR truck out there and u know it
@@michaelpierre208what makes them the best? Pete and Volvo are way more comfortable than a freightliner especially OTR. I’ve driven both and you can’t compare compare a freightliner a Pete. The only thing I give to the freightliner is the better turning radius
@@user-FTRU6GJ Volvo interior and peterbilt don’t have enough space compared to Freightliner and not as comfortable also
Plus Freightliner got better fuel savings and more dealerships to get service from and cheaper to fix and more friendly to work with
More comfortable when driving and better looking on inside or outside
It’s so easy to drive because everything u need is right at ur fingertips specially compared to Volvo where they complicated everything example where they located the gear shift is laughable and u have a big gap between the windshield and the dash where anything that’s small drops there lol u ain’t gonna find it so please stop because I have sooo much more I can point out to u y Freightliner is an overall better truck on the market for truckers
I get better MPGs loaded then being MT it’s crazy most of the time it say 10+ MPGs and I have got 1730 mile on one fill up
Freight shaker don't shake anymore. Come up witg with something new. I never bungee the fuel hose, lmao. A guy from prime talking smack. Oh no lights brighter than they use to be, lol. That higher fog light option. Lol.
If you don’t like watching a Prime driver talk “smack” kick rocks…. Apparently this channel isn’t for you
@angeldedmon apparently you can't back anything up that this prime guy said. So keep talking "smack" makes prime look like a tool. Oh wait, they already are a bunch of tools.
This guy is a real Freightliner hater lol that’s how u know Freightliner is a better overall truck when u have this guy hating
I have a 2019 cascadia but want a 579. My Freightliner is so good to me I dont think i can switch brands. Also Detroit is the best motor out there now
gay
Frieghtliner does not shake 2022 is solid
Can you please tell me what color of blue, or the name of the color is, ( did that make sense)
Does prime or any other trucking companies sell their trucks
Or can I order 🤔 one ... for me?
The color of my 2020 Peterbilt is electric blue. It's possible the one in the video may be the same or at least close enough
Sovereign Blue was this trucks color
