4:22. Be right back. Now I gotta pee. 😂

Im 54, but when I was younger I remember the Autocar was a common choice for snow removal.

Fine Job Buddy. Yeah, you had the camera in a good spot. I was able to see you shift those horse shoe patterns. I drove a lot of different trucks and transmissions but never did get to shift that one. It looked like an easier way to run through the gears better. Happy New Year to You & Yours Buddy!

These Mack’s and Autocars built this country best construction trucks ever made especially these old girls all mechanical Do Not Ever Get Rid Of Them

Yes your correct Autocar had the DC models back in the 1950s

If you put a 12 spd Mack gear box behind that 300 you will have a good balance of pulling power and good highway speed

I used to drive a 70 Autocar, 335 Cummins with a 4 and 4, cabs looked almost identical

Two old workhorses are still on the job! And being driven by someone who wasn't born when they were new and was on their first job with the original owners.

Don't Whine about some cheap jumper cables.

Hello James The man behind the wheel excellent video loved the scenery you and your family a Happy Healthy New Year thank you ken

Good stuff!! I am old school, so these were common trucks back yonder. Mack... the innovators. Air ride cab, diesels with high torque at low rpm, cab n sleeper as 1 piece... The "Awfulcar"... haha, workhorse... 6:13 rear end... able to crawl and pull a house down. I had to take a "Vactor" truck, a specialized vacum truck for wet or dry product years ago from East Coast, right on the ocean, out to Wyoming for an oilfield job. 58 mph top end... man that was a L O N G noisey ride!!

One day I hope to get to come up and ride one time . Enjoyed the video .

This is a good old truck

Such a great life driving these old gems for a living I drive brand new stuff and it just feels like a car lol boring....my old company I drove a 90's W900 and a 90's T-800 great trucks

Overdrive box.

Sometimes just juice to go for a ride! Happy New Year!

Great old iron! Would you consider selling either, or both?

Happy new year you did a very good job driving the old AutoCar I drove a variety of trucks over the years that had that square shift pattern instead of the more familiar X pattern nothing to it it just takes a few miles to get use too the only thing that use to ruffle my feathers is when some idiot would remove the shift pattern plaque or label then it took me a half a day sometimes to figure out the pattern or if it was a 9 or 10 spd or if it was A 6 or 7 spd like Consolidated Freightways use to have in those old White Freight Liner Cab overs the 7 spd was not too bad but those old 6 spd took some patience & practice very quirky gear pattern never sure what gear you were really in but once I mastered that old girl it was kind of fun I empressed the safety manager one day I was already there about 2 months and he grabbed me one day he said my records indicate you have not been road tested by me yet so I said ok I’m ready we only went about 4 miles he said that is some good shifting skills you have how long you been trucking about 2 years I said he said well I have some guys here for 20 years that are horrible at these kind of trucks he said keep up the good driving habits

I drove a 1978 autocar azteca ( Mexican version for oil field) in the north of veracruz state Mexico I was 20 years old we transported rigs, installing to

Fuller 9 speeds overdrive up fast transmission

that was a nice run right between you & your dad both, damn good video i love the ride along videos, the autocar got more muscle the mack was out of there even though you kind of tailing your dad if it wasn't for that car in front of you lol, Happy New Year to you & your family Bro.

You just gotta enjoy the looks of the old iron, I always did like the shape and curves of the old R model Mack, kinda enticing, like a curvy woman, but less cranky.😛 The Autocar is distinctive too, screams “ can we go to work now, I’m bored”. Good to see some of the ‘ole iron still survives. Happy new year from foggy Newfoundland, and good driving by the way.

Same cab as our old White Road Boss.

I think if you could've gotten in your Dad's draft, you would have had him 😅😅

Such a beautiful truck. Drive it like you stole it! Happy new year!

My truck autocar

Country' road take me home to the place i belong west Virginia mountain mama take me home oh country road...

Happy new year James to you and family 😊love them trucks

Thanx for another ride and Happy New Year.

Lol your dad was burnin up the road in the ol mack. Happy new year btw hope yall have a good and safe one.

20 years ago I ran an early 80's International tri-axle dump truck that had that "horseshoe" styled pattern. I wasn't a fan of it. Good camera position/angle. 👍🏻

I love the Autocar my first truck I drove for 15 years 5*4 twin stick 1963 model.

Seasons greetings and thanks for all of your content during the year.

That old Mack sure sounds good. I drove a 78 Mack Superliner with the 283/285 horsepower Mack engine, 2 stick 6 speed transmission, 3.87 drive gears. I really like those older Mack's. The engines, transmissions. Tough trucks.

You need a spinner knob on that steering wheel.

My experience with Johnson Grass has been good. It will grow out of a freeway embankment, doesn't need fertilizer, makes it's own seeds and has broad leaves. The cattle love it. With other grass you have to put down expensive fertilizer or have to broadcast the seeds and disk them in.

Thanks

Ok done , now for number 2 truck ..... Make a list of what you need , buy it then ' fix it & drive it , sell it Whole or for parts . They are back on the road however you look at it .🤔😳😲😲😲😳😳

Up in British Columbia here, all the supperliners are 8s because of the logging. You don't see the 6s. The R models are concrete trucks and the odd gravel truck. In all though very few Macks

Y'all going to get the other one running too

Need to put some of that marvel mystery oil in there too

I don't care what it is, these kids, today CANT drive them.! Need Turbo whistle.!

Have you seen Diesel Creek's 2 auto-cars he has a 1950's vintage and a 1980's one he's in the process of repowering it

You know how a drummer is always saying more cowbell this here trucker needs to here more air horns driv,ah... awesome job

The oldhead thinking ahead about incase the engine decides to runaway is what being wise is all about

I owned a 2002 mack vision sleeper truck had the mack E7 engine let me tell ya you had to be a diesel mechanic to work on it!! Now that Volvo owns mack doesn't even know anything about mack!!! Nice mack them we're the good ones super liners R models yep though trucks... great job. Happy new year 🎉🎉🎉 I bet them horns are loud

Красота 😍

Hi James, once again a great video. You’re always the first video notification I go to then FSC. Love seeing trucks from my time.😉👌👍

The best part is you don't feel the need to speak. You just drive. Love it, and thanks for the ridealong
