[@polikwaptiwache397]

Captain Larry No sleep Fishin...: You are right about truckin being in your blood. I had 35 years on the road and loved it. It was hard as hell giving up my CDL status license ☹ BUT it was time. I retired and I no longer required it. Do I miss it.... hell yeah!! If I had it to do all over again.... my butt would still be in that seat!!

[@prettylittlephotons]

She's absolutely gorgeous!! KW has always had my heart, but the ride on a PB is unmatched. I'm not a fan of the turning radius on a PB too much either. But, I have been more and more open to the PB's lately. We shall see.

[@earthscraper69]

I agree but the turning radius is the same as the T680 now I really need to do my fallow up video soon I have 22000 miles on her already.

[@prettylittlephotons]

[@yohnny8839]

Have you ever tried a Volvo? If you’re looking for a good ride, they can’t be beat.

[@prettylittlephotons]

@@yohnny8839 Hi Kevin. Actually, I haven't. I've never been too fond of the former body styles. However, I must say the 2019's are looking kind of sharp. One thing I can say, is if you're looking for a super roomy sleeper, the Volvo is unmatched. LOL

[@Jimbobd421]

Keven Gil I drove a 770 for awhile. Didn’t care for it. Rough and hardly enough storage space. I prefer the 680 or the 579.

[@TxStang]

I worked at the Peterbilt factory in Denton Tx for 2 years until the big layoff in 07 , worked doing track rod and 5th wheel install on the line for the first year and went to cab trim joining the sleepers to the cab ( pounding the rubber seals between the 2 wears you arm out after 8 hours LOL ) and hanging mufflers and sometimes filling in in interior trim as well for the second year .

[@earthscraper69]

Wow that's crazy sounds like hard work but that's awesome I've been in GM plants it's amazing how things work in there.

[@TxStang]

very hard work but the pay was great , after the layoff I got a job in aerospace so when they called back months later I turned it down . That plant was like a well oiled machine , very efficient we were building over 50 trucks per shift when I left there . Also while there we built the last OTR Cabover to roll out the Peterbilt doors .

[@NomadicSociety]

@@TxStang cool! wish there were videos

[@jamesmorrison5632]

Oh yeah I might add I know exactly how you feel to I've never had anything like that before and never dreamed I'd ever have anything like that in my life but I was just as impressed as you are when I got my first one

love the look of those sears huge leather seats, how is the comfort comparing them to my National 2000 with backcycler anyone know?

[@shaneb1313]

I'm happy for you, that's a great accomplishment! I actually like the dash set-up and steering wheel more than the new 389's! The way those 2 bars are in the center of the steering wheel, allow you to hold on to it with a motorcycle style grip, the new Volvo's have it also. I LOVE IT! Not a huge fan of all the plastic now days but, I do understand the pros & cons. Good job bro! One thing though. It's an (A.P. Unit) or, APU. Not an APU unit. That would be an Auxiliary Power Unit Unit! Lol..... Take care &, safe travels! Saddens me to hear you say the word "automatic" though😦

[@polikwaptiwache397]

Beautiful rig!! Good luck with her!!

[@earthscraper69]

Thank you

[@Torsee]

One great idea that seems to be a peterbilt exclusive is the fold in half second bunk! Makes great sense. You can use the shelf it forms. Everyone else folds flat against the wall. Great truck!

[@NomadicSociety]

yea stick that mattress under your lower one for extra plush then have even more storage up top even :) put tool box liner up top to keep the stuff up there from shifting and rattling!

I kinda feel the desire to get into the trucking industry. I retire as a firefighter in 2 months. I’m 58.5 years old. Is that too old to get into it? I’ve driven fire trucks for 20 years.

[@earthscraper69]

Not at all all ages can do this job if y oui u love to sit for long periods and watch scenery this is for you. Heaviest thing you may have to lift is a broom to sweep out the trailer some have electric battery powered blowers to make it easier. If you decide to just take your time and enjoy it.

Basically he's got a Cadillac. My advice buy what the companies are buying. Freightliner cascadia with DD15 or DD13 engine. Work efficient truck. Pete's are too expensive.

[@ozziecrosby2092]

Yep!!! And the new Pete's are ugly. My company has cascadia and western stars. I prefer the cascadia.

[@kevink3429]

And new Pete’s look good u just gotta get the right one like a 389 long hood they look sexy

[@adventuresofperseus945]

I like the way the top bunk is i guess u can say deep. Cuz if i have my kid he won't roll off in The middle of the night

[@DanielGarcia-zz9eg]

Does this mean I dont have to do double clutch to pass my CDL at the DMV now that's its automatic

[@kurth.8599]

It is a pretty truck, but where the heck is the exhaust on this thing? I don't see nothing up the sides. I don't see nothing up the back. I hate underneath exhaust. It will fumigate everyone. Try parking next to a stinger rig, and you'll know what I'm talking about.

[@rovfranky3786]

Beatiful truck

[@earthscraper69]

Thank you

[@pkranz937]

It's the same truck as the T680. Built on the KW's frame.

[@ducksnpucks1192]

Nice enuf truck, but the interior is rather plain. You wanna see a wicked smart interior. Then the new Volvo VNL's or Mack Anthem's blow this Pete away. That said, Peterbilt has come light years with this interior. And all the manufacturers are heading towards creature comforts in these sleeper trucks. Much like small yachts and RVs. Despite the appeal of my likes towards the new Anthems and VNLs, I certainly wouldn't turn my nose up at this truck. It'll do.

[@tfries72]

KW vs PB? Which do you prefer also which engine do prefer paccar or cummins?

[@earthscraper69]

2000 more miles I'll be doing a 10,000 mile review of likes and dislikes. Thanks for watching.

[@hthouston3924]

It's same company just like Chevy & GMC

[@TheHasselBoff]

In Europe, night heaters or diesel generated APU and disc brakes come as standard across all new sleeper cabs and have done for many years. We win!

[@Nurse_Leslie]

how many Peterbilt 389x do y'all have over there?

[@TheHasselBoff]

You usually see them at truck shows, they're nice to look at. Peterbilt and Kenworth are owned by Paccar, so are DAF XF which we have in Europe and have an almost flat floor inside, like a cabover pete but if it was the same interior as the new kenworth W990

240 gallons and usually a new motor will have low fuel mileage and get better after 50k to 100k miles.
