I've watched this video and the first one at least a half dozen times. I've taken down notes and tomorrow morning I'm going to inspect my first new (used) truck purchase in Tifton GA. Thank you so very much for the channel and great information you provide. Steve, thank you as well for all the straight forward no BS insight you provide.
That’s a lot.when I was a owner operator I had a 2006 freightliner Columbia with Detroit 60 it made it 1 million 300thos b4 a 4K break down did pretty dam good
I've trucking for a long time and can remember when you could not give a series 60 Detroit ( 12.7) away and now every body wants them. I have a 1999 volvo with a 500 horse 12.7 and love it.
I’m motivated to get my cdl I’ve been watching your videos for 2 weeks straight. I love the information & all the personality’s you come across. Keep doing what you do brother your changing lives wish me luck.
Barry, normaly a technican no can say the Truth, it is forbiden from the shopowner. Ihe lie is part from the buisines, all over the world. With a modern Truck (car) you can do nothing, you need a laptop fore analyse the engine. You can be a elecronik ingenieur from the NASA, but you can do nothing. We are in a digital world, only bits going around in the wire, no voltage like before. With a voltmeter you can do nothing, maybe check the Batterie?
Every successful fleet owner that’s been at it for over 20 years I’ve ever talked to (5 of them) says the same thing as far as equipment goes: if you’re running OTR the best driveline is: either a 12.7 dd60 or N14 Cummins, a 10 speed roadranger with the C ratio set (this is important!!!!), and either Rockwell or Eaton 40k rears in a 4.10/4.11 ratio. This combo will last forever and when they do fail, each component is cheap and easy to find, fix or replace. I’ve seen several C ratio 10 speeds with over 1.25 million miles on them that are still quiet and tight, you’ll hardly ever see that with a 13 or 18, let alone an auto shift. The 15 speeds are also a good option being as they’re built off a 10 but they add weight and they don’t make them in the high torque ratings that you can get in a 10 to keep up with the 1,500 lb-ft plus engines on the road today.
Intriguing perspective. Why is the c ratio important? the rear ratio 4.10/4.11 ?? what significant role does this in hauling reefer If I was to do a rebuild engine could I add the c ratio ? I have no idea what I’m talking about. But I know you do lol
Alex......Dont get mad at me dude....... Can we get some more interviews with Hard Hustle......That gentleman has so much knowledge that's untapped and he gives it to the driver in a way where he doesn't talk down to you. I know he loves trucking but he's a guy that might have to be featured on your podcast bi weekly or monthly but there are alot of drivers that are willing to learn and you and your growing forum would be the perfect jump off for young drivers to get this information!!! He doesn't charge, you don't charge so drivers get there information and knowledge. Hard Hustle pulls out files.....Your dam right he keeps great records!!!! Appreciate you again and your hard work Alex......Stay Safe........
Glad to hear that Alex...... Your a good driver but your 100 times more important to the driving community with everything your bringing to us. I think im speaking for alot of people when I say I'm seeing big things for you and your channel my freind!!!
@@nickl8192 ......Yes sir.......Hard Hustle has the Yellow Pete with matching trailer. ......Alex just did another great interview with a gentleman that is at the same company ......Ya Nick L that Yellow Pete is what's up man!!!
Alex!!! Easy way to figure out how much it costs. Take your "guess" for the part and multiply by 3.25, if you end up paying less than that for the job then you got a good deal.
Could you have Steve pretend he's someone's mechanic and looking over the truck for them before purchasing and just a step by step of how he would inspect it. Or maybe what he looks for before LRM purchases one? Hopefully you see this and help us have some peace of mind before buying a semi, thank you Alex!
Definitely look forward to seeing more videos with Steve. I love hearing smart people real about what they know. If you want some more mechanic videos check out Adam at T.A.T. express. He has a few inspection walk through videos for buying a used truck.
Yeah this is a great video I wanna have some knowledge about going to purchase a truck just got fired from a company today and I’m good at saving money and your channel would lead me in the right direction
Thanks for the video!It came at the right time!. I just sent LRM my down payment earlier this week to reserve a truck. They let me know that there a long wait to get a truck . This video just confirmed it.
Hey brother. I know my phone is definitely listening to me cus I was speaking about this topic to a of couple people and I open the app and BANG, the first video I see is yours lol. Thanks for information 👍
Here is some facts to keep in mind about the new detriots. The engine has over 3,000 sensors internally and externally that the ecm calculates while the engine runs. The fuel pressure in the line is measured in thousands of pounds. Enough pressure in one of those file lines to cut your fingers off if you don’t know what your doing. The def filters cost about 3,000$ each. Half a dealerships service department bays is regen and def related issues. Not engine or trans. Def and regen issues.
Wow those are some exaggerated numbers. Between the engine and aftertreatment system there are roughly 35 sensors. Fuel rail pressure bleeds off to a safe pressure about 10 minutes after shutdown. Certified Detroit reman dpfs cost about $2700 for both, and each one has a $532 core charge return that you get back if you turn the old ones in. So it comes out to roughly $1730 for both. Granted this is only for parts, and not labor too. Our dealership charges $945 to replace dpfs. This includes R&R, resetting the ash level in the ACM (a must), and running a regen. Not trying to be rude, but you got to get your facts right if you're going to instruct unknowing people.
If you get that guy again since he's an expert on Freightliner can you get him to go over the service intervals currently recommended for these trucks. Things such as bearings, wheel seals, valve adjustments, or even pm maintenance and recommended brand filter and oil type.
Long story short, if you're gonna become an O/O, buy a manual truck! They're a lot more reliable, fun to drive, less expensive to replace. This goes for cars too.....
@@dpstarcom I got a friend and co worker that he hate the manual transmission trucks , the other day he took a training in the yard but once he took the road 🥵🥵🥵🥵 he had to comeback to the yard because he just forgot how to downshift the 10 speed manual 🤣🤣…. I’m here in boston ma
@@donje31 I find them all over. I can buy trucks with them. every junkyard in the country sells em. I even have a spare in the shop. not hard to find. but not getting cheapet.
Wow what a awesome video. Thanks so much on this type of information. I’m currently saving up to buy my truck. I currently drive a freight liner for my current job an loved them. It’s a great starting point to know how these trucks function. Thank you for this video I look forward to buying my truck soon. 2023 let’s get it 💪🏼
Alex used dt12 are not that expensive, more than manual but $12k is bit extreme. You could probably get it installed for half that price. Shop around ppl..
I drove a truck with a super 10 transmission . With a box that shifts for you . Exact same trans as a manual. But with a box that makes it auto. Seems like a cheaper more dependable route .
I’m eager to get acquainted with manuals again, I haven’t driven them since I was in school nearly two years ago. But definitely would prefer one for my very own truck for reasons mentioned in this video.
Thank you for all the videos you do it's helping me out because I want to be a owner operator and I know there's big money in it half of my family drives a 18-wheeler I don't see any wrong that I can do it I've been around it most of my life it just it just comes natural and the truck I prefer to get is a Kenworth w900l
It's the same with the trucks as a whole. I could go out and buy some nice Peterbilt or Kenworth for 70-80k with maybe 500-800k miles, maybe more that are manual. But the automatic trucks that have about the same mileage I've seen going for well above 100k
ask this guy about automated manual eaton vs eaton manual shift? I feel like automated manual eaton would be best because it removes driver error of grinding and clutch wear. im an apprentice mechanic and have seen the clutch lasts longer on an automated manual.
This is a great video. I have a different question but totally related. How to buy a tractor from a private party without getting scammed? Which are the things to do ahead of time so that one does not show up to a deal where one is robbed, sold a stolen vehicle, or one that is ghost?
You can get transmissions anywhere Kentucky everywhere man you tripping not until now you can get them for about 8 Grand or less at the market parts too😂😂😂😂
Wish there were freightliner guys around my area in Minnesota that could fix the wiring issue in the dump truck I drive... trailer lights go all whacky. I know for a fact the signal switch is bad, you can tap it an the wipers go off. Trailer brake lights/ signal lights go out.. or when you hit a signal the whole side of the trailer flashes etc. None of the guys at boyer could figure it out, freightliner themselves couldn't figure it out.. so I can't pull a trailer with it.
Where are they located? I'm thinking about getting my own truck, but I need a lot of help. I've just been working as P&D/LTL driver for over 3 years now.
13 over drive are the best if you run west of the Miss.13 & 18 are the same on the 18 you can split the low side this means all gears low & high you can split direct and over drive,the 13only split the high side
What about a 10 speed automatic. I drive a 2019 day cab international. It shifts like crap and I really don't like it. Our old manual 10 speed truck was 100 times better. I drive for a company BTW.
I want no how involved it would be to swap out a 10 speed automatic transmission to a 18 manual transmission in a 2010 Cascadea with a DD15 or maybe some other manual transmission. Thx
I have 3 freightliners, 1 manual and two autos. If at any time my autos fail, I'll swap for a manual instead. Problem solved. The reason I went with autos was to give my drivers more comfort when in big cities with traffic jams.
@inderveerbilling yeah dd15, they both went to almost 900k miles before one seized up and the other one just recently started running poorly so it's retired for now. Dd15s have some quirks with oil supply issues, I think that's what might have caused the failures.
Viewing for the first time March 3, 2022. Very important and extremely helpful video. But please thoroughly clean your lens prior to filming. Either the dust from the shop, haze, or sun glare dims your video a bit which was particularly a bummer when trying to get a clear glimpse of the parts. Great work though!! Thanks for sharing.

The guy your interviewing probably needs his own mic
It's the same with the trucks as a whole. I could go out and buy some nice Peterbilt or Kenworth for 70-80k with maybe 500-800k miles, maybe more that are manual. But the automatic trucks that have about the same mileage I've seen going for well above 100k
Oh man. I really want the luxury of driving an automatic. I have champagne dreams on a mini can of soda budget. 🤣

Viewing for the first time March 3, 2022. Very important and extremely helpful video. But please thoroughly clean your lens prior to filming. Either the dust from the shop, haze, or sun glare dims your video a bit which was particularly a bummer when trying to get a clear glimpse of the parts. Great work though!! Thanks for sharing.
