[@simonharris1804]

[@robertlee7606]

[@mikeservais888]

Good job shifting truck sounds good

[@chrismurnane6389]

Yes, he is a good twin sticker. I don't want to take anything from him, but Dr Bill seemed to me like he could do it in his sleep, he didn't even change the tone of his voice as he did two hand shifts.

[@chrismurnane6389]

Yes I could listen to backdrop Cummins exhaust sound all day.

[@icemanroyal]

that double shifting man... very cool

[@MICHAELSTEWART]

bill hicks, i learned how to drive on a b-81 in 1963. bruce werner, we had oshkosh snowplows with hall/scott engines when i was in the navy in alaska.

CL Cobb A cattle Hauler in Toppenish Wa Had three of the w-71 in the 50s. I drove a 1954 with added sleeper for for 2 years. Nice truck.

[@doxyonr]

That sound is PERFECT!

[@chrismurnane6389]

Absolutely Perfect!!! I haven't heard it on the road for decades. It wasn't all that common in Australia 🇦🇺 anyway. All you can hear these days is fan noise and tyre noise.

[@dwayneoxford9719]

Great!! Now a period trailer and some load to hear it pull.

[@sethnonya8566]

When they did the face shot of the guy while he was accelerating it was like a movie or something

[@brucew44guns]

My dad started driving in 1940, retired in 1984. He said of them all----that there was never anything better than a good hot 275, unless it was a good 400 series butane burner Hall Scott.

[@Jesse-le9bh]

Beautiful thanks.

[@longroadpro]

This truck belongs to a friend of mine in Oregon. I'm just the video guy. Amazing quality on the restoration. No doubt of that.

[@stevejake4316]

Where was that filmed? Some where by klamath falls?

[@Hitman-ds1ei]

Probably better than the day it was made !!

[@whitetiger8652]

Excellent!

[@chrismurnane6389]

I think Ken Thomas restores his trucks at least as well any other and better than many other truck restorers. truck.

[@rev.randall2292]

Looks and sounds great.

[@longroadpro]

A friend of mine named Steve Ide. There is a clip called "Crawdad" on here from my son Sam's college jazz recital. Steve can be seen playing on that. If you search for the BTU's, there is more of Steve's amazing talent.

First Mack I drove was an H Model

[@robertlee7606]

Me too, H 61 in 1955

[@MsJinkerson]

can you do a video explaining twin sticking

[@longroadpro]

@MegaZsolti When I upload to KZbin I don't "tach out" the audio. Digital audio does what they call clipping when it's too loud. Try turning up the volume level on your computer speakers.

[@longroadpro]

I would guess between 60 and 65 mph.

[@jorgedelcid6178]

[@MegaZsolti]
