We are ready for the Volvo semi rebuild to resume. Its been long enough.

[@achon1771]

That "project" was doomed from the very beginning. The only logical reason to buy it would've been if you had another one sitting with a blown engine, so you could've gotten it back on the road by swapping it with a low mileage motor at a good price.

[@nickstlouis847]

i don’t think he has a new cab yet

[@CHACALYAkA]

@@nickstlouis847 I think He does

[@andrewneil5902]

@@achon1771 frame was straight and everything was good mechanical after he finished the work now it just needs a cab and some cosmetic parts

[@achon1771]

@@andrewneil5902 do you have an idea how a frame is checked if it's within tolerances? What do you mean by cosmetic stuff? The cab has to be fully equipped for as far as I have seen.

[@ardajrsexpressinc.20]

The RED button on the side of the seat is in fact the seat warmer. I have a 2020 VNL 860. Good Luck with the truck, I'm currently at 220k miles and she is a work horse. I love my 860.

[@IcemanEdits]

I so badly want to get into long haul trucking but would only do it if I could work for a company that would provide a truck like that. Feel like that’s basically impossible though.

[@user-ix8ki9lc2q]

any problems with sensors and or emissions system so far?

[@jatinderkaurtoor1685]

OIC but its not required as your butt gets pretty warm sitting on the seat for 11 hours driving. LOL

[@raphaeljapan5338]

I thought it was the ejection seat:))

[@elpasso3337]

я тебе не верю

[@SuperAngus55]

I have driven a lot of trucks over my 54 years of driving truck. The day I first got to drive a Volvo I fell in love with it I did not want to drive any other truck they handel so nice you have a beautiful truck

[@GavinY]

finally a truck built for being away from home,

[@erikpettusjr.7090]

I’m not a truck driver but I like the look of the newer Volvos better than the older ones. Beautiful truck 🤩

[@linushedwall9838]

It's quite funny to see how the new US Volvos are like a mix-match of new and old EU Volvos. Even more fun to see how much you guys over there actually like them

[@tim6398]

That red button on the seat is for the heated seats buddy! And the controls you said were for the heater is actually the inverter...

[@shootingreal5945]

All in all, I am digging this rig, as far as comfort it looks good.

[@moneyprofessional]

Your truck looks amazing. Seems like Volvo have thought of everything. I'd be very happy to live in that cab for a while. Thanks for the thorough review, really interesting to see inside in detail.

[@Akumaa2000]

I drive a Volvo in American Truck Simulator, I love how the sleeper looks. 😎✌🏾

[@user-uv1pi4ew7f]

The extra plastic housing on the mirrors is to stop the windshield washer fluid and rain on the windshield to go onto the mirrors when you use your wipers. The mirror does not get dirty, or blurry (with water) this way.

[@michaellebednik6973]

Rusty, get yourself a pool noodle, cut to length, put a slit in them and slip over the ladder bars for comfortably climbing onto top bunk.

[@Gunners_Mate_Guns]

Great idea, but I believe 1" black foam pipe tube insulation would probably fit better on the rungs. I've only ever sat in a semi once (good Samaritan trucker took me to the next exit when I had a flat in winter...hell of a good guy there), so I could be wrong.

[@b9bot148]

It's a pretty luxurious truck. Lots of storage, and comforts for you the driver.

[@DeathRUM27]

If i were a truck driver, i'd definitly buy this beauty.

[@paramgujjar]

No one can do it Better than Rusty❤️. Great video as always

[@Skullitor]

Globetrotter XL is Volvo's top package.

[@eppoh66]

I love the Volvo, especially with the setup with teh table! Very nice!!! Congrats man.

[@yellastar2953]

I want a volve they are nice

[@muricansm2976]

ECO Roll is the feature when you driving down the hill and release acceleration pedal, truck starting to roll in neutral gear. But you need to disengage cruise control and engine brake first.

[@tellyonthewall8751]

Only one thing to say ... It's a Volvo! (Driving the XC90 in private, best car ever) The VISTA mechanic

[@bradh6185]

I've thought about getting an XC90.

[@scooby0006]

Love volvo Vnl's love the table set up. Enjoy rusty

[@rachelstinnett7983]

AWESOME truck!!! AWESOME video!!!

[@TheTravelers515]

Wow, I definitely need. Thank you for the review

[@travpark8163]

@TheRustyCracker ; You can manually unlock the king-pin, if its jammed, what you do, is first release it by the switch, that releases the air to the locking clamps; from there, you can do it manually. Its done that way, for just in case it does get jammed, as they can some-times do so. We have them in most of our trucks in the yard. (but for us, we have like an flip-switch that covers it, like launching a missile (but they cant be activated when moving, as a safety feature)

[@jefflloyd8612]

Nice truck! Really like the graphics they installed.

[@Aureas2]

Amazing! Over here in the UK our trucks are cargo carriers with a piece of Lego attached at the front where the driver sits 😂

[@stovebolt448]

Enjoy Rusty.

[@robertjonesboro4360]

I like the truck is very nice on the inside very nice on the outside and I think you did a very good job describing it burrow

[@daveb1081]

Nice video Rusty! I run this truck in ATS and absolutely love it!

[@sammuel9385]

Beautiful ass truck!! Great review bro thanks! 🙏

[@michaelbruzek4774]

Great looking truck … awesome features.. especially the ladder for the bunk .. I think it works great.. I’m glad I have one as well!!!😎😎

[@buckrogers2828]

Great to find my New Video From TheRustyCracker like a breath of fresh air instead of many of the Crusty Channels. XL is the Cab type higher roof etc.

[@corsnel594]

RUSTY: Rusty: I love the VOLVO I like everything that is placed inside the cabin as well as what is additionally in the SLEEPER. It helps you as a truck driver I'm one of those guys who is rather "old school" and prefer the CLASSIC XL. Love your videos - it gives good information and also pros and cons of what you drive as well as for the new guys who want to become truck drivers. Do not stop making videos - it's really something to watch

[@rajvardhansinghrathor9836]

The volvo is simply beauty and the beast

[@steffenfischer1673]

Great Truck👍👍👍 Great Video 👍👍👍

[@juliorodriguez8772]

I really love the volvo truck.

[@robc3887]

Nice rig, looks comfortable and can be made easily livable for OTR life...

[@terrychapman6645]

Volvo the best truck in Europe really like your USA version

[@cslamborchen9131]

That's a one heck of a beauty! I feel like taking a ride in it!

[@robertduffin455]

Brilliant bit of kit for the highway Volvo backup in Europe is first class 🇬🇧👍

[@shagandeepsingh5267]

I drove volvo 5 yrs in canada…. Its the best in the bad weather.

[@lesflynn4455]

Looks pretty awesome to me.

[@karlleego2513]

I'm not a truck driver and I live in Europe so we don't have these big trucks but to me the Volvos in NA look really nice. Glad that you got this new truck

[@westsidewags4411]

Your truck looks so cool in the cinematic view 🌄 😍😍wow

[@nelsoncarrera9807]

THE BEST TRUCK BUDDY

[@kirktitgen7453]

Really beautiful truck !!! Get those wheels polished ..lol 😅...stay safe and keep on truckin Rusty !!!

[@donSparda]

17:29 ooooooohhh oldschool volvo doorhandle :=D

[@kennethski4196]

I drove a FM 9 concrete truck , nice ! This is something else ! Love it 🙃

[@dadoboss3322]

Hi man...it's a very cool pub...good luck

[@pezzermra]

Shes a beauty. I drive a Globetrotter here in UK and a Volvo car so Im Volvo MAD lol..

[@mb5ggX2SyFMM]

How much does this rig cost? Of all the comments I have seen only one state "quarter of a million."

[@troberts2009]

My right ear enjoyed this video.

[@HennieMartens]

A beautiful truck!

[@ninonicebx]

I'll be getting this one. 22 or 2023 by the time I'm ready. I'm gonna be living in my newly bought Globetrotter for at least 5 years until they make a better one. I have nothing or anyone holding me down.

[@JagsF69]

If you have the same ladder with thin steps and you plan to leave it out pool noodles cut to slide over it give great padding for bare feet

[@nicholashansen]

This truck looks a lot better and features then the Western Star

[@phantoms9311]

What a beauty!!!

[@monkusbee]

Sweet rig!

[@wilE6764]

Whatever happened to the wrecked Volvo you were rebuildind?...did you ever find a cab for it?

[@yolandatew9576]

I love it so far

[@benjaminacosta2582]

i love this truck!

[@rommelvillanueva4230]

Wow that's awesome

[@methulelimoyo8290]

The Volvo the beast watching- South Africa

[@Havok135]

I think your company set you up for success man, good job!

[@Edogawa1117]

Best truck I have seen.

[@gabemarah9465]

For the rain sensor, leave your windshield wipers on the intermittent settings, the more frequent the intermittent, the more sensitive the sensor. For Volvos, it will wipe once to let you know it’s active.

[@frklein1]

Pretty sweet!

[@ShanksMW]

You’re living in my dream buddy. Have a good day

[@agutama21]

Cool video, bro... Like it👍

[@isobekyaxshiboyev9274]

great track

[@lisaburks2]

Looks like a nice ride.

[@pinoytrucker82]

Rusty when are you going road trip again I miss watching your road trip video thanks and be safe.

[@goncalogalhoz3833]

Really nice vídeo...!

[@christian-wines9256]

*MAN RUSTY I HAVEN'T SEEN YOU IN A WHILE WOW WHAT A NICE TRUCK* (I wasn't being sarcastic)

[@mulugetazethiopia5839]

Volvo is the best!!

[@jacksonvasquez2294]

Beautiful Truck I love the blue lines big hug Rusty from COSTA RICA 🇨🇷 DEUCES!

[@christiansamazingvideos3682]

Nice truck would totally get a truck like this

[@jimjab3631]

I don't like Volvo but I am old fashioned. Looks like it drives like a sports car, and very comfortable

[@Vader2903]

Rusty the guy actually walked up to the truck & we said hi & all that lol it was pretty cool

[@XNick291X]

The base version companies such as Old Dominion use are literally perfect for European roads/haulage!

[@Jeffy-km1vm]

He finally got us the truck tour

[@kevinsarju3523]

Love it

[@adrianhiraldo3078]

I didn’t know that the Volvo was so comfortable.👍🏾

[@MyIntroVertedWorld]

I have no idea why I was paying attention like I'm getting a test later, but It was a good video. I watched the whole thing. LOl

[@0youx]

I think Volvo stay the best truck for the road

[@noorshalabi8896]

The volvo have worst off road truck and weakest truck with automatic transmission in 2021 But European volvo street trucks are good in comfort, but the interior is uncomfortable compared to Mercedes and Scania as well. What is more wrong with Volvo Trucks especially the newer model from 2013 until today? There are a lot of problems and terrible fuel and adblue consumption. Also (need a better seat) this is my opinion

[@mirzafarrukhishtiaqbaig]

Wow man great volvo is best.👍

[@mobeasley8577]

Nice...is there additional trunk space under the seats at the lower bunk?

[@ngonzalezjr]

It’s looks amazing and I’m not a truck driver beautiful truck

[@anderslindstrom3110]

Globetrotter is the high of the cabin , xl is the highest and just globetrotter is a lower cabin. A have a Volvo FH Globetrotter. I think it is a 10-20 centimeter difference

[@samsiphandone7412]

One of my friends just bought one last week... Now he has his own truck...

[@mathewsuiker2861]

the house plugs are controlled by the inverter that is below the control panel in the sleeper. Push and hold the green button and it turns on. It's not a heater lol

[@jatinderkaurtoor1685]

Great in looks and lots of features but I still will go for Freightliner.

[@jacobmendoza326]

good información thanks for the video

[@bd5av8r1]

Rain Sensor: It detects rainfall hitting the windshield. It then starts the wipers without you doing anything. :) My Town car has them.

[@haroontopa5902]

Very very nice truck.

[@TranslatedAssumption]

I saw one of these in PURPLE and I don't want anything else now!

[@K38official]

That Volvo is fuegooo🔥🔥

[@davidanddiana7173]

Cool cool truck man 👍

[@tntruckin5112]

Hey man where did you get those LED that you put under the truck and where did you connect them too?

[@chappy2121]

Nice bit of kit. That's the one I'd have.

[@ehcatsfaneric2211]

super tripindicular buddy!!! really awesome straight pimpin gangster semi road beast...a dream come true to just drive it compared to what I had...you are lucky son..be safe

[@EnthusiastCarHangar]

Great video! Would be nice to see a comparison to a European spec Volvo. Or why not a Renault or Mercedes. Just as a fun idea.

[@sfcjones2590]

I forget where at on I95 But there is a bunch of Cabs in a Junk Yard and I noticed a Volvo Cab. I think it was south of Florence, SC Not sure if it will fit your rebuild Volvo or not.
