2020 Volvo VNL 860 Truck Tour

How I set up my 2020 Volvo Vnl 860 truck

Best truck tour hands down on KZbin. Definitely love the Volvo.

[@danielbortner9646]

Hey forget the nay sayers I really appreciate you giving instruction to the nubies I hope you will do a lot more brother

[@philharris4504]

Yeah the 389's are beautiful and "old school cool". But I agree with you, as far as spending lots of time on the road, I'd much rather have the extra room, the extra comfort and the extra MPG's that a truck like this provides. The new VNL 860's are VERY good looking trucks in my humble opinion.

[@RodeoRides]

Friggin sweet I always loved those Volvo’s 👍🏻

[@alechamid235]

Best set up I've seen so far.

[@RushinTruckin]

Best truck setup I’ve seen out here!

[@saladdays180s9]

I was literally scratching my back by grinding it in a doorway when you showed your handy backscratcher. Those things are priceless. Watching your channel and getting insights, as my two brothers and my son are contemplating starting out own little trucking company.It all really started when my brother got his CDL to transport a dragster rig to races around the country. It was a side job. He absolutely loves it and I can't blame him. We all have wanderlust built into the family genes somehow, and can happily spend all day just looking around. Turns out truckers have a great vantage point! Anyhow, thanks for the video here. Is nice to be dialed in, and pull from experience from those whom are already there.

These volvos are nice, make me wanna get my cdl and drive 👌👌

just subscribed. love watching your trips. keep up the good work.

[@thephantomeagle2]

very nice truck. I can see why you went with the Volvo.

[@provostmotorsportstrucking2298]

60,000 miles already ...still loving the Volvo !!

[@hawki5120]

I am one of those weird old people now. I have to be able to shift my truck and I have run Cummins since the early 90s. But other then that I agree with you on the fuel mileage plus the added bonus of so much more room then a 389 or W9. Its a good thing you listened to the boss and waited a couple months for it.

[@markm0000]

I got a Cummins and a 13 speed after 1 year of driving an automatic. It was a bit scary the first few thousand miles but now I can float up and down no problem right into a stop.

[@Tomatohater64]

I love everything about your truck. Just not crazy with white. I have to give credit where it's due; Volvo made one hell of a truck.

[@harrycarson2119]

It seems you really know you're stuff about trucking ! Nice truck god bless

[@ryanbrandenburg1882]

The crapper storage sealed the deal for me. I'll be in one in March 2021

There you go! You're making a good point about that fuel economy thing! That's right!

very nice truck

[@MrRld1960]

The best places I have found to work on or change the oil on my Tri-Pak APU are in Ocala, Fl. and Birmingham, Al. They didn't install mine, they come on my trucks. Those are the only 2 places { except for 1 time } that I had work on my APU on 3 different trucks over 15 yrs. They were always nice and fast.

[@barbarajones227]

Cool tour of a super advanced rig, thanks for sharing! The Killem product is very interesting. Have you looked into doing solar with LiFePO4 batteries, like Battle Born rather than an APU? The run time on Lithium batteries is crazy good, but they are pricey.

[@user-uh9lg9wg1d]

I have the same truck, try down shifting once you see the little arrows on the dash. You’ll be surprised how well you can manage that 1850 ft lbs of torque when starting an up hill under load. These trucks are all programmed for optimal fuel economy. You don’t need to be In manual mode to grab a lower gear and you can do it with cruise on. Give it a try.

[@lubsey]

great truck

[@provostmotorsportstrucking2298]

Thanks 👍

Ive watched this video 3 times now man! I love these new Volvos! Killer truck man..Im happy for ya!

[@provostmotorsportstrucking2298]

Thanks !!

[@milkman1944]

Love the Volvos, I drove Freightliner and it was obvious why they were cheaper, I bought a two year old that I drove since new. After 1,200,000 miles, I traded for a new Volvo. It was like getting out of a Ford Falcon and getting into a Lexus, smooth, quiet and roomy. Retired in '04, still miss that truck. Just wondering, what's your bobtail weight, my Volvo was heavier than the Freightliner.

[@dankruger2890]

i know fuel economy differs from load to load. could you give us a couple examples of what you have noticed on mpg

[@robcountryboy4851]

Well I think this is an awesome truck and if your trucking alone I never understand why more drivers don’t sleep up top and use the dinette. It’s like an extra feature having the dinette plus The toilet is a nice touch lol

[@markm0000]

You should probably go to the dealer and figure out a way to get that ishifter mounted onto the dash board. That seems like it would always get in the way. I would end up breaking it in an emergency trying to get out of the truck too quickly.

[@danielbortner9646]

Just curious what is your mpg when your running bobtail?

[@mirnamt2]

Is there a difference between the ishift lever and the ishift drive buttons?

I have only just started watching your videos so the question I am asking may have already been answered but, does your truck have drum brakes or disk brakes, and if you have the disk brakes how do you like them compared to the drum brakes? Very nice video, thanks for sharing, and I agree with you, about gas mileage. When you are footing the bill it becomes a very important topic. I used to run a 26' box truck and putting fuel in that thing changed my driving habits quickly, so yea, those 389 like nice, but how does it help my bottom line? Doesn't make a lot of sense to me pushing a brick that has bad aero. Simple math proves the point.

[@provostmotorsportstrucking2298]

Drum...next one will have disc...the drum brakes on this truck work way better than my Freightliner

[@scotabot7826]

What is a Provost Motorsports?

[@bhavyanathg4632]

Is your truck has 6x4 axle configuration? And also what's the rear axle ratio of this truck?. Your videos are fascinating and trying to adjust to your level. Thanks for all the videos!. Stay safe from coronavirus!.

[@chrismoody5977]

Do u think super singles or wheel covers would have made a difference to your already great fuel economy?

[@markm0000]

Super singles are a scam. Any money you save is instantly thrown out the window when you get a flat tire. The rim drops down onto the road and completely chews it up. You can't get stopped on the shoulder fast enough to save it, no matter how hard you try. The wheel covers kinda work to help mpg's but they always just get in the way when you're trying to check air pressure or clean the wheels. If you're driving up and down a lot of steep hills I wouldn't get them. Your brakes need as much cooling as possible and those covers will just bake them until they burn.

[@whoisromello]

Is there any special hardware that you need to install that TV on the mount and if so what did you use to put the TV up

Hey man if you get a chance do a short video on the suspension system the airbags and let us know if your truck has the airbags on your steering upfront. I’ve seen where some of the new Volvos have airbag suspension on the steering axles. Also do you have the ability to dump your airbags and slide your fifth wheel I like the way you have your truck set up
