6v92T straight pipe hauling corn

1978 Ford L9000 10 wheeler grain hauler w/detroit hauling a couple loads of corn. Luckily they didn't test the corn for sound damage or I probably would have suffered a pretty hefty dock.
Here's a short video recorded with my cell phone with a little better audio: • 6v92 straight pipe rid...
Here's another video but this time it's a tug of war between the ol' ford and an m35a2 army truck: • m35a2 vs 6v92 detroit ...

Got my daily fix of a screaming Detroit. Thanks! Takes me back.

Great to see these legendary engines so full of character still put to good use! Amazing sound!!

Sounds good, thanks for sharing! Also thanks for feeding America! 🇺🇸👍

Thanks for the kind words.

Thanks man. A Detroit Diesel WIDE OPEN is a universal language! Thanks for watching.

[@edwinschwartz2472]

Glad to see you use the clutch only for first or reverse!

[@beavercommander]

Yes sir! Only for changing direction of travel from a standstill.

[@herpnderpn2484]

Nah, the concerto the 6 pistons were playing merely softened the corn up so as to be easier to eat. They should be paying you extra.

[@beavercommander]

I like the way you think!

[@daviweiss4360]

@@beavercommander They reject your corn hault it to my coutry (Brasil) , we buy the corn and love good sounding engines, but the detroits never entered the fame ranks of a good engine here because the diesel poor quality sold here who help Mercedes Benz, but some people who not repowered they trucks still are working on small farms...

[@beavercommander]

@@daviweiss4360 I like to stay in Arkansas pretty close to the farm with my trucks so the D.O.T. (commercial truck police) don't get mad at me. But if I'm ever in Brasil I'll take you for a ride! There aren't many detroits left around here either. Thanks for watching.

Right on man! Thanks for watching.

I want more of this ole gall

[@beavercommander]

Right on. I bought a deuce and a half army truck a couple months ago and have been itching to have a tug of war between the two, just haven't got around to it yet. Stay tuned! Thanks for watching...

I always loved GM power in a Ford

[@tacticalidiot175]

Detroit is not GM 💀💀

[@mattberg916]

@@tacticalidiot175 Detroit Diesel currently is not GM. Actually right now owned by Freightliner which is Chrysler/ Fiat. The Original Detroit Diesel was 100% GM. The particular engine in the video is GM.

Also known as a "Double Breasted Yamaha"', well it would be if it was an 8-V. A 6-71 or 6-92 is or was known as a "Hot Water 6". They are TOUGH ENGINES, but they are NOT DRIVER FRIENDLY. BB

You're being nice. They're junk!

[@joeynelson4091]

Ahh Detroit season 😁

[@josephcox1811]

Nice old Ford Louisville from what I could tell.

[@beavercommander]

Thanks man. It's pretty rough but sure is fun to drive! She's been down for about two years after some crackheads doing 70+mph tried to pass me while I was turning left. Idiot in the early 90s swb Chevy never let off the gas until his pelvis broke when he hit my front tire... Last week I finally got around to rolling a new front end under it and replaced the steering box and she's better than ever. Hopefully be toting some corn out of the field in the next week or so. Thanks for watching!

[@RenewTheRWandBlue]

You wouldn't just get docked for sound damage, they would reject the load, lol!

[@beavercommander]

You're right on that one haha! I think they liked it.

[@andrewking9761]

Good engine the 6V92TA 350 hp and 6.5 mpg. Compact and reliable and only 860kg. A 🐈 Cat or Cummins weighs about 400 pounds more than that.

[@aaronsanborn4291]

And you can get a lot more power from a 3406Cat...I have a 600horse Cat 3406E under the hood of my T-800 Kenworth not that the Detroit is a bad motor...I prefer the 60 series myself

[@jasonacker9513]

I am buying a 75 gmc with an 8v71 gonna be a fun project

[@beavercommander]

Sweet! I bought a 79 ford parts truck for the front end that had an 8v71 and a 10 speed. It was a powerhouse what little I drove it before I stripped it down. Be sure to make a video and link it here when you get it!

[@jasonacker9513]

This one has a road ranger 13spd

[@toddgittins5692]

Otherwise known as a "13"

[@robpeters5204]

Is this in Ontario? Looks very far millibar? That looks like an 80 LNT9000 I remember that doghouse very well. Had one just like it.

[@beavercommander]

Arkansas, USA. This one is a 1978 model. Ford made some pretty neat old trucks. What kind of power did yours have?

[@robpeters5204]

Ours was an 81 with the 671and fuller 13spd. O.D trans.

[@hoost3056]

How is it on the fuel?

[@beavercommander]

I have an international day cab with a Cummins L-10 and I'd say it's right on par with it. The Detroit could probably edge it out if it had a good tuneup.

[@cdawggz]

did you get your name from duck dynasty

[@beavercommander]

I made this account probably 15 years ago before the tv show came out. They were just making hunting movies and duck calls back then. I was killing beavers for the $15 bounty at the time and thought it would be funny.

[@tedhicks5431]

Does this Detroit v6 have a turbo?

[@beavercommander]

Sure does. The truck doesn't have a boost gauge so I don't know how much pressure it makes.
