Doesn't matter what we say, you're going to do what you want to do, and that's take it apart.
He could mess up a good dream
Well then it probably isen't his in current form @@rodneystewart8958
@rodneystewart8958 you couldn't do anything
Go watch your hero Timmy and leave
@@George-dy3pt 🤣
Everything Brucester buys he takes it apart or breaks it! Reason argosy looks so cool is the way it’s set up! Gonna look like doo doo jacked up in bigger tires.
Sure hate to see you destroy it.
Sure hate to see you needs always having something negative to say instead of just not watching and leave! You p o s
Considering I know him, and I know the love he puts into his builds, and his trucks, and the fact that you’re going to absolutely destroy it. This is a bummer.
hey you know Shelly too? I miss his frieghtliner
That western star in the back is 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Fr I’m from down there I see him all the time it’s awesome
I like the quarter fenders and box between the steer and drive axles
I have a feeling that’s an old hay hauler setup. Lots of argosy’s day cabs down here in California that were used as hay hauling rigs.
Ex Dirksen/Gardner truck
Super shocked when I saw the thumbnail.. this is one of my favorite spec Argosy daycab flat top tandem axles👌 Glad you bought it Bruce! Please keep it and never sale it. Im excited to see future content🔥🔥👍
You could use a disc brake conversion on your cabover from one of those salvage trucks.
Freightliner had that air disconnect wheel back in 2005 Hoss. Them 255’s will make 10 good spares for your RGN. That should have 255’s on it
Looks like a sweet truck👍 Have a great Sunday my friend.
Get that cb in this truck plus change those tireds So you arrive will be very nice and smooth
Now this is a hot truck! Drove cabovers in my early days and still have a good feel about them. Put this on a grain trailer and go truckin'! Hell, I'd (almost) come out of retirement to drive this!
Tires are separating inside Im glade you made it home. Id definitely get some fronts before I went out again.
Dope new rig!! Never thought I’d actually like it as a day cab setup but I’d get one sitting just as low if I could
That truck would make a cool tow truck with with a clean under reach.
Turning it into an rv or overland vehicle would be really cool. You should build a custom short trailer that is like a lounge or hangout room inside with ac and tvs on the wall. A kick back place for when you are at shows.
I’m really digging the looks on this truck
Hey Bruce that is a really nice Freightliner Cabover just keep the stripes on it and put bigger tyres on it if you are going too use it all the time.
What a beautiful truck, love it
In Europe we´ve got theese super low trucks with very slim low profile tires too, they are called lowliners, and also got super flat fith wheels, to get 120" of inside hight of the semitrailer instead of 110" only with standard trailers.
WOW - that is an INCREDIBLY rare beast, especially here in North America...
Great look for that cab over !! Great buy !!
the trd tri color livery's on everything is so sickkk
Sounds like you need to ask Jason the original owner of the truck if you can have permission to use that doodle of the truck as a design for a t-shirt, hat or something else. That would be a really cool design to have on a shirt!
Could be fun to see you guys go to Australia and buy some COE trucks from American truck manufacturers. They got some serious cool American COE trucks down under
that would be fun to see and cool.
@@davidsesona4156As I understand some of them are produced (as parts) in the US and then shipped down under and assembled down under. And they have retained some of the 90s COE look that you saw in the US in the 90s - obviously with some design upgrades to look more modern. I love the American conventional long hood trucks, but as a European I also like the Cabover design. Especially those you saw back in the 90s USA/Canada. And now those American cabover you see in Australia/New Zealand with their American styling
@@Land_Rover_TonyVolvos and Mercedes trucks are great trucks. So I can’t blame you aussies
@@Land_Rover_TonyI thought the Argosy is/was popular truck
That would be nice to see!!
I had a 75 El Camino. When I shattered the spider gears in it. It went thru the diff. cover and it raised the rear-end of the truck
Please send that music 🎶 back to where it came from
Omg lake got his cdl i told ya now ryan has to get his i havent been watchin any vids because im back to work and return to truckin brcause you guys i was gona give it up but you guys made me me realize its in my blood that 14hr kickin my but so i done fell behind but yall know im #1fan❤
actually looks like you know what your doing with that rotator now! you been to the training course? We still need more SCANIA content tho!
Not just the Scania, but also the 389 camper truck
That experience you had at the tire place... Welcome to Hagerstown.
The rates Freightliner charges for making ECM adjustments are insane. You’d think for spending money on a DTNA product, they’d be a little better about it. We spent a small fortune when we had adjustments made on our fire co water tanker.
Maybe some Super singles maybe a nice chrome Merritt cab gaurd on the Argosy
I think you should put. Landoll tilt deck behind it to move the salvage trucks around
Check the king pins before alignment!
Needs crome bumper and crome front grill and a crome gard at the top to top it off add new lights and add your logo then b on point 🙂
Damn, this is honestly probably my favorite truck you've bought. Jealous
His truck his ideas his moneylet him do his thing and quit the negativity.
Freightliners are awesome. They’re better than a Kenworth or Pete with a Paccar engine.
ABSOLUTELY-----> OUTSTANDING!!!!!!!!!!. 🙂
Sweet truck.... you need a landoll trailer painted to match to pull with it, save the rgn for heavy and equipment hauls,good luck with it
Add a sleeper to it and re-sale
It! People really love Canovers but not enough of them on
The road
These trucks had lower tires to get under low bridges. Taller trailers. Short wheel base navigating in the urban areas.
This truck might have been used for hauling spec loads. Heavy loads, 14 foot trailers in texas and washington state.
The argosy curtainside autohauler averaged 7 miles per gallon. That i drove. Series 60 2001 15 liter 10 speed.
All centuries, argosy and columbias that i drove all had an air operated tilt wheel. Mercedes owns freightliner.. hence the engineering.
This truck might have been speced for 57 foot 14 high trailers hauling paper in washington state or texas.
And yes there are places that have truck and other speed limits.
Be old school and keep the 255s on the steers and run 11r22.5s on your drives helps the ride and get your road speed back up
From that camera it looks cool like it’s got taller tires on steers !
Leave it alone do not do anything to it Don't put bigger tires don't do anything just leave it the way it is
Great you bought a truck that doesn't need anything . Now how are you going to mess it up ! Cause we all know you cant leave anything alone ! Next video the top will be chopped off of it and it will be sitting out in the rain !! 8 days between video's thought I was watching Gentry's channel !
Apparently, Freightliner is bringing back the FWD Cabovers from the past. When I am not to sure, but soon...
Thats a bad ass trailer too.
The only way to unplug the speed sensor successfully is to jump it with a paperclip that prevents a check engine light from coming on
Hey Bruce, next time you jack the cab up, make sure you open the grill at the front of the Truck otherwise you may damage it
The Argosy was the last class 8 cab-over truck made for North America.
Why is it when I try to watch these videos I get a long commercial with a message saying that the long commercial is to replace more shorter commercials only to be presented with another long commercial a few minutes later.
Pretty sure I passed you on 62 when I was going to Monterey to buy a msd starter yesterday around 11:30. I was like that’s cool rig Wilson needs that lol
I bet that over head crane has more torque than Ryans challenger 😂
You should get into contact with ron pratt and he can give you more insight on the rotator..
Cant say flew down when you flew up buddy!!! Lol
Drew the funny guy
i always say my buddy flew down when he flys up from florida for some reason lol
Depends on where you put your zero dude.
In space there is no up and down. We just happen to be on a giant rock with water in space where there is no up and down. If you’d like to get technical lol
Beautiful truck. Good luck with it
3:40 why he look like the person off of 'Pawn Stars'
I like the western star 4900, sorry for sounding like a nerd but that truck literally resembles the G2 optimus prime. I always wondered what prime would look like as a western star long nose truck.
Ask Tim Gentry about those trucks , he's an argosy wizard .
Next video: i found so many issues with my cabover
I havent seen one of those cab overs that body style in years
We have those freightliner cabovers in Australia and New Zealand aswell
Bruce! Dont forget you never walk or stand under a suspended load. 🤪
Put Michelin anti splash super singles on with the anti splash rib on they look aggressive definitely need them on the scanias
Nice truck. The cab shape reminds me of a 1970's Volvo F88.
That thing is seriously dope. Very cool.
That is a rad looking cab over never seen one like it
I had to drive them way back in the day. Yall can keep them rough riding no room hunk of junks . Best dang thing the manufacturers everydid was to do away with them.
2007 is way back in the day?
Well the truck was nice until he got ahold of it
Quite being a heating
except for the squarish box on the side, and colors, stripes and all, that's one of the nicest trucks i've seen. it's not fancy, but it's less is more type thing. people can really mess up a good truck with more than is necessary. it's a truck, not a show-boat...
That red Freight liner day cab looks like it used to be a US Express truck
Look at the two brothers freightliner and western star
It's a very nice truck for a nice truck. Guys two of them are modifications on there it'll be fine
trucks history : oregon to california, then california to pensylvania, and then pensylvania to tennesse. thats quite something
We had a guy that makes a transistor thing that went into speed senser .
Pumped for this one! I have a k104 kenworth cabover with 14l 60 series detroit straight piped, with 18speed, tuned!
No hidden argosy steps like an old British lorry when they stepped on the wheel hub🤨 freightliner did consider these for the UK but they said they were too wide
You should display the money deck plate and speed limit deck plate in the shop.
NOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LEAVE IT ON THE TRUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LEAVE THE TRUCK ALONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Beautiful truck!
the south african argosy trucks looks so much better on the inside compared to the USA ones. but finally its good to see some argosys running in the usa
Just realized u got a better paint job on your forklift than my car. The Fitzgeralds can paint.
Bruce You should check out ron pratt he is a wrecker operator/towing and recovery
Yeah bigger tires? If swapping fithwheel block it up. Bigger tire not going to make it ride better. But whatever ,then figure out how to step up in.
Man I know it isn’t the popular choice but I’d love to have the cab over to haul doubles with
These trucks are from former Market Transport in Portland, OR. These stripes are used to be their logo, even when I worked there. Company was sold I think in 2011 or 2012.
Love the new cabover, wish more of those style cabovers like the K200 were in america more
You know when I really Look at an Argosy I think to my self how did Freightliner come up with the looks on this thing you need to go back to the 1960s and watch a episode of an old Speed Racer cartoon called the Mamouth Car it may be cool if you got some new LO Pro tires but me personally I like Tall Rubber and be cautious once you screwup that Cable shifter you probably will need to replace it not a DIY job will have to be done by a Eaton Fuller transmission Specialist service center $$$
He said that Western Star “turns good”. I’m waiting to hear his secret!!
It needs dual stacks and a headache rack
Build a custom shorty merch trailer to match!
Set up an electric cab lift
Do a video about shimming the RGN. Why, how, when, etc
WesternStar trucks a very well built. The trucks I drove pulled mountains of weight and took a lot of abuse and kept going.
Muy bonito este video gracias por este hermoso paseo😊
Put higher risers on the 5th wheel
Now we need a comparison video with a scania
You cant rly compare a turd to a golden nugget, can you?
@@Thelemorf Go on then let's see whether you're American or European..... Which is the turd?
(Answer wisely 😁)
That truck is clean looks awesome 😎👍
THE LONGER THE BOOM,, THE LESS PICK UP YOU HAVE!! YOU SAID IT THE OTHER WAY,,,, HORIZONTAL /LONGER ,,IS LESS,,,,,MORE VERTICAL MORE
I wonder if it was an old Gardner Trucking truck
It was Dirksen/Gardner
Very cool.
