You Sir are a good man, a sincere man. It is pleasure to meet you. Thank you for sharing your life and adventures.

[@briankole7930]

You probably dont give a shit but does anyone know a trick to get back into an instagram account..? I was stupid lost the login password. I would love any tips you can give me

[@nelsonprinceton7647]

@Brian Kole Instablaster ;)

[@briankole7930]

@Nelson Princeton i really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and I'm trying it out atm. I see it takes a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

[@briankole7930]

@Nelson Princeton it worked and I now got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D Thank you so much you saved my ass :D

[@nelsonprinceton7647]

@Brian Kole Glad I could help =)

[@harvey50ok]

Dan your right,take care of your truck and it will pay your bills and feed your family. I still hear my Dad telling me that every time i think about waiting till after the next run to change the oil. Good Luck Dan,maybe ill run across you one day in Joplin or Tulsa, i spend a lot of time in the four States now days,getting older you know...........

[@bigjunior9]

It's Beautiful.Love it, retired trucker here and it almost makes me want to go back to steering wheel holding again but I can't,(disabled). Love your video's, watch them sometimes twice. " BIG THUMBS UP "

[@billalbion]

All the best with your new truck. DAF is biggest selling heavy truck make in UK and is Paccar owned, I think that is the same 13 litre engine from DAF with excellent reputation grossing 44 tonnes on 6 axles. A few years ago I ran the older DAF 11.6 litre engines again grossing 44 tonnes and they all did over a million miles without overhaul before being sold to work on. It certainly is the same steering wheel as in DAF trucks. It amaźes me how you guys cope with the long wheelbase tractor units compared to our short 3 axle cab cabovers with single drive and two steer axles. Thank you very much indeed for most interesting video's.

[@bowtieguy6870]

I loved the first positive on your list "it's a Peterbilt". That is a positive for sure. Beautiful truck. She'll serve you well. Congrats!

[@javieraviles6314]

Great charing the new truck features with us and good luck on your passion job . Blessings to you and your Family.

[@rcdenis1]

Thanks for the tour. I'm eager to see, in the coming months, how it compares to your old truck.

[@SuperTruckerdan]

+Rick Denis Me too I'm anxious to compare fuel mileage between the two trucks Thanks for watching

[@dardie37]

nice looking truck Dan , and in the UK we run 280 mx13 paccar engine trucks and they use less adblue (DEF) than the benz engine trucks and i can't remember an engine fail , just keep on top of regular oil changes only the auto gear box issues so driving through a 13 speed should be good and that engines have so much torque at low revs,

[@uggy7]

Congratulations on your new 2nd hand truck. May it give you millions of trouble free miles and keep you safe always. Look forward to the next vlog.

[@tylerhorner4387]

Congrats once again Dan!!! You look happy. Thanks for the videos.

[@lildevil7002]

Hi Dan, great looking truck and it wil serve you well ( I'm a 379 man so I'll miss the old truck) Safe trip home and I'll be watching to see you pull your first load.

[@davidanddiana7173]

Super trucker Dan love the New truck

[@pete379100]

For the price the new truck is in great condition. It has a lot more options on it than I thought it would. Congrats on the new purchase

[@SuperTruckerdan]

+pete379100 Thanks for watching

[@SteelyPaw]

The scuff's and stuff is not bad, and like my dad always said, the paint don't make it run any better, LOL... Was really a nice tour of the truck, I feel like part of your adventure. It's a great looking truck, you did a nice job buying it, and I wish you great luck with it, and hopefully I'll be riding along to keep tabs on how your treating our truck, LOL.. When outside, I had took a moment to admire that flat bed across the way with the two Ford F250s or 350's on it.

[@SuperTruckerdan]

+Pete_ Hine_Of_PA I had my eyes on those old fords too Thanks for watching

[@SteelyPaw]

Thanks Dan, I always enjoy your comments as well as your Vlogs...

[@anthonypirrello2473]

Thanks for the tour and best of luck to you with it. Yes - be sure to get your Theresa sign installed soon. Your company has a display/recruiting booth along with a beautiful tractor at the GATS in Dallas. We were there today and wished you were there to meet you. But work comes first.

[@James-jt4wf]

Nice,good luck with the new truck

[@lonniemccovery4750]

Congrats Dan on new truck

[@DoRC]

Congrats! She's beautiful! Good call on the warranty even if nothing goes wrong it's worth every penny!

[@frederickoning191]

Very exciting to see you in your new truck! Thank you for the extensive tour and great commentary. I love your perspective and attitude towards money. This purchase has plenty of utility and the economic case you make is sound. I look forward to riding along. Have a safe trip home.

[@elihernandez1988]

Congrats on your truck. Thank you for your videos

[@bobskrutsky2240]

Good luck with your new truck. You did a great job keeping your enthusiasm in check showing it off to your viewers. You did your research and it shows with this Peterbuilt.

[@sipzter]

Great to hear the excitement in your voice for the new truck.Must be fun to get a new to you rig after all the miles on your other truck. It is a nice rig, lots of new features. Safe trip back home.

[@eddebevic2097]

Love the Truck!!!

[@SuperTruckerdan]

Thanks for watching

[@shawncooper1573]

Nice truck, I'm sure you'll miss the Cat, but you took the better choice in the MX and stayed away from the Cummins. The aftertreatment system will take some getting used to, more so if you extend your idling time, big no no lol. Safe travels Sir

[@DontTreadOnMeToo]

New to you is awesome. Hope it is a blessing to you. Great news.

[@SuperTruckerdan]

+DontTreadOnMeToo Thanks for watching

[@jayt6524]

I'm excited for you. Love the truck. I hope you do a video on the way home. I can't wait days for another video. That wait was to much for me. Congrats to you.

[@wbball15]

Thanks for sharing, Dan. Enjoy the trip home.

[@ccfuzz2000]

Dan, I will say that I love your videos the best about trucking. Great New truck for you. Ive just finished my second week with my trainer with Maverick. Hope to meet you at here some day. Drive home safe

[@doon714]

They also sell flat screen tv bracket to mount where that steel plate is and it stretches out and folds back and moves every direction so its not in the way when your not using it.

[@walterfrancis7962]

Love the truck, couldn't wait to see it the only thing you have to do to the interior is put your little note back over your head again👍👍

[@dieseldoctor9294]

Few tips on emissions engines from a diesel mechanic that works on them everyday. Don't idle more than you absolutely have too, if you do idle, bump it up to 900-1100rpm while idling. Oil changes at 20k or less miles, also on the paccar engine do not run a metal oil spinner filter, use the paccar plastic spinner filter. Also everything on the aftertreatment system is cummins, yes they have paccar part numbers for everything but genuine cummins parts will fit the aftertreatment system, also dpf will need to be cleaned every 300k or less miles depending on idle time, etc. Also keep the coolant level right to the seam on the resorvoir or higher, doesn't take much to trip the coolant level sensor.

[@simentalg]

Matthew Cox don't forget to add an oil analyzes seems like the coolant level is low on Cummins it means the egr is possibly leaking

[@ricksworlddereaux2397]

sleeperdoor is great,if a bad dude walks comes at night,you ready point your sawnoffshutgun at him...use rubber or salt load.....works fine

[@donho5818]

Very nice truck,I miss the long hood but miles per gallon will be better,I'm happy for you.

[@bobamericana3099]

the 386 is the best pete to me...modern yet still has classic looks...i love that hood

[@stevepayne3425]

Contrats, Dave! Truck looks great and sounds like you hit your goal financially. We are going to enjoy your journey in the new ride.

[@jamesschultz172]

Make sure to blow dirt off around oil filters or all the crud around it will fall in when you take off.I just got a 579 at work with a 510 paccar runs pretty good.

[@teresaeljinini7850]

I hope you have good luck with it. That is a very nice truck.

I just went through Shipshewana, Indiana on Tuesday. Home to Double Eagle, since closed. I believe that some former employees started their own custom sleeper business near by.

[@LeeMack912]

Congratulations on the new truck brother. Drive in good health and be safe

[@garyforester1345]

i saw a guy with the def on passenger side that waited and pulled into fuel island that had a empty island on the passenger side. then he used the pump on the next island towards his passenger side and just drug the def hose over to his truck. then just fueled on his island when done with def.

[@kristiesavoy7222]

Congratulations Dan on your new/used second home/business property. With a half million miles it looks like very clean ride. still has the long nose look with the right amount aerodynamics, nice chrome to white ratio, over all a very good looking truck. As for your concerns about the DEF emissions/motor and i believe you totally understand this, change happens hopefully for the good but not always," how,s the engine going to perform, is the emission going to be problematic", who knows? Every industry goes through changes and eventually we all have to roll with it other wise you'd be diving a coal powered steam engine rig on wagon wheels. lol. As a mechanic/former fleet manager i cant over state this to everybody maintenance, maintenance, maintenance. you wont believe how many problems stop prematurely showing up or don't rear there ugly head until late in the components life just by having a good maintenance regime. Again congratulations, enjoy home time and take it easy, but totally understand the " gotta get some down time work done to get back making a pay check". always great videos and hope to see you setting up new truck. Thanks~David~

[@SuperTruckerdan]

+kristie savoy I agree with you on change. It's going to happen. I believe the ones that try to fight it are the ones that will get left behind. Thanks for the maintenance advice and Thanks for watching

[@derrickodyes1934]

need your hi Theresa sign back up! thing about paccar engines is lots of shops only work on the big 3 if theres issues and parts may take longer to get than cat/cummins

[@allendodson9881]

Very Nice , Impressive..I'am sure she will do great pulling a load and will ride a bit smoother too. Really enjoyed the walk thru and like the looks of the Truck. And she will look good hooked to the split tandem trailer too. Iam excited to head all about the ride home and the 1st load. Till then Dan, Happy Trails and keep the shinney side up ....

[@BigLarry1950]

Great looking truck, hoping it gives you many years of good service.

[@LoiselleAssociates]

congratulations Dan, nice looking ride!!! I wish you all the best and hope it serves you well.

[@williemackay7824]

The new truck looks great Dan, your very best of health to drive it sir.

[@rudyc2100]

Congrats Dan, great looking truck. Heard mix stuff about paccar. Hopefully it treats you well. Keep her shiny put some lug nut covers, visor and some 8 inch stacks. If not you can always paint your tanks white and leave the tanks straps polished. Save you time in polishing. You can always switch sides of the tanks setups but I'm not sure with paccar but with cummins you can always delete dpf/def setup and tune the engine and it will run better and last longer. Many have done it. Either way, enjoy it!

[@stevensneeringer1452]

Nice rig ! Be sure to read the operator's manual supplement entitled Emissions. It is very detailed telling about DPF/SCR systems, regenerations.DEF fluids, etc. Both KW's I drove each had one.So does the Pete 579 I have now.

[@doon714]

Remember always keep a jug of DEF in the truck just in case. It happened to me 1 time I thought I could make it to the truck stop and didn't make it, derated the truck. LOL. I like the PACCAR motor, I got an average of 7.8 with mine running coast to coast, It was a little slower on the hills but that was ok. Good luck and Nice truck.

[@djbigdavethefyrm]

I've been waiting on this video. No get some nut covers and replace the rusted out axle hub cover. Polish and at least some chicken lights. look forward to the new videos in the new truck. Get home safe

[@perry437]

I enjoy your videos, truck looks great. Safe travels.

[@johnchesser896]

Good looking truck. Peterbilt Steve who is on KZbin was selling Peterbilts and he said the computer would run four cameras.

[@dwayneddg]

Nice walk around. I'm jealous 😊. And it was good to meet you today. Be safe.

[@wb6she]

Nice truck, good luck with it...hope it gets you lots of trouble free miles!...thanks for sharing..

[@brianmulligan6239]

Nice truck. Thanks for the tour. Have a safe trip home!

[@larryehrlich8702]

I think you should swap the tank setup from side to side. That would put your def and small tank on the drivers side and the large tank and APU on hte Pax side. That will be some work but trying to deal with the def tank is going to be a never ending hassel. Good luck.

[@karelweijkamp3613]

Nice truck Dan, Oh and the engine is i think a Daf It is like me Dutch and i can tell you it is a very good engine i drove with mi Daf more then 1.6 miljon km with no problems so i whis you a good journy and very safe miles with your new truck I dont drive no more there is a time to stop and i am now 72 years but i Always mis the big road! Regards Karel is teh same as Charles!

[@raydowell679]

thank you for the tour , safe travels dan

[@geneharden9265]

Congratulations to you Dan a great video and a beautiful truck.

[@insuranceman100]

Congratulations....looks good

[@philiplindley7384]

Looking good, Dan. If those engines are anything like the European versions you'll find they're lower on power, more gear changing but apart from that pretty bulletproof.

[@garyclarkii9801]

Honestly I really do hope the truck works out for ya but look at it this way, if the engine does decide to crap out on ya you can always go back with your proven Cat and drop it in there!!!. The shorter WB I'm not sure of but you can deal with anything that comes along in your fashion, its your baby now so anything that comes along I'm sure that you'll be able to handle any problems that pop up. Good luck again with your newer truck and best of luck on your endeavors. I do really enjoy your channel and hope we will see any and everything that happens on your adventures!!! Btw, I did notice that you have a remote lube staion and I'm sure that will make you much happier, no more crawling under the truck to lube it anymore lets hope!!

[@musicman4782]

Love the new truck. You're going to notice a very pleasant difference with the disk brakes. I have them all around on my 2014 Mack. Safe travels!

I like it Dan , You thought this one out , looks like a variable super charger . I think your going to enjoy the bagged front end also . Drive safe bud . Miss you Kallie 😻

[@chrisformby3039]

When regenerating that part of the exhaust will get up to 600 Degrees, this may discolour the chrome and it certainly uses more fuel during this process. I'm a truck driver from England, stumbled on your videos and I really like them. Driving in the US is a world away from driving in the UK. Keep up the good work.

[@otrtrucking6922]

Very nice truck. I really like that model of truck .

Thanks for the tour man!! Sweet looking ride. Make sure to video the generator changeover. Happy trails

[@michaelfrascati7610]

Thanks Dan: the BEST description of gauges and dashboard I have ever seen here on KZbin! Rest of truck and reasons for purchase were very informative as well! Probably one of the nicest 359’s I’ve seen, especially interior. Like that you plan on different steering wheel, I don’t like it much either...! 😉

[@rpop414]

Good job Dan Looking forward to many more miles and videos. Love the new to you truck. "Keep the shiny side up"

Nice looking truck, I hope you take that aero kit stuff off the back of the bunk, looks bad when you don't have any Chrome or lights on it and plus you get more room for over hang

Very nice truck. Make the assumption that it has the original clutch. So it may need one soon if it is. Hope the paccar motor turns out to be a good one. Had a Cummins in my last truck, giving Volvo a try this round.
