[@larrytaylor4482]

Thanks for the ride along today, really enjoyed it! Also thanks for having the window down, I know it must've been a little cold but I appreciate it. Be safe out there 🤙

[@adnanrexhepi710]

That Albanian Double Headed Eagle in the intro immediately caught my attention. Then i saw your Albanian face attributes. Gorgeous truck and great channel. Kalo mir Shqipe 👐

[@mackjenkins7721]

Man she's riding good and sounding really good. I just love hearing 13 speeds and 18 speed shifting in a truck. I'm glad to see you got your baby back & she is Shifting well. Be safe out there driver and thank you for sharing.

[@dsouth6826]

Floating those gears so smooth they call him A&W. Sounds Beautiful

[@bryantorres4716]

$4,810 for an 18 speed trans ? That’s a heck of a deal.

[@mrnoah1124]

agreed. just spend 4400 on a reman 13 speed with 1 year warranty lol

[@silentA221]

Holy moly that truck is beautiful.. I bet your loving the 18 speed.. Feels much more better flicking those extra gears

[@ErnestConnett]

Love your truck well keep and great sounding kitty and thank you for your service to are country. From fellow driver

[@natescott8632]

Beautiful truck seems like it runs great and shifts like a dream.

That truck is a beast! Looks like a handful at times with that small steering wheel.

[@tamechadwick4197]

Tame from Sydney Australia. Wow, great viewing, you've got some smooth gear-changings happening Bigman. Sounding wicked. New subscriber, luv the trip. Be Safe and look forward to continuous updates.

[@Exotic_xWasteD]

jake brake gives me goosebumps every time i hear it, it is so rare we see such in norway, in norway there are about 10 of such american trucks😍

[@choosetherightify]

This is an incredible truck. And I applaud that you have no interest in trucking within California. Shume makine e bukur.

[@kremesodajay3385]

THAT TRUCK GOT SOME BALLS

[@robertbradford7892]

For all the work done that's not bad it's worth every dime... ✌🏾

[@latinoracer]

This is the coolest truck I've seen!

[@wishusknight3009]

13 and 18 speeds come in different variaties that can effect crusing RPM, but only if you have the direct drive or overdrive versions. Most road trucks will already have the OD version. usually only pit trucks will have the DD version. If one is wanting better cursing RPM's, going to an 18 speed can be advantageous if you are also going to taller final drives so you don't lose bottom end pulling power.

[@chrisclark5178]

Your interior is sick 😮‍💨👌🏽👌🏽! I love it !

[@3408kid]

to me thats money well spent your clutch and trans should be good for a couple years now i think thats good insurance to me keep up the good work and i hope your wife and baby are doing well god bless my friend!

[@hellojoe70]

Jesus Christ that sounds beautiful.i could listen to that all day lol

[@marcusmiller5033]

No you couldn't, had 8in on mine 6nz cat motor went back to mufflers, favorite word was "what" when on phone. 🤣 no difference between 18 spd and 13 spd on high side. Can split gears on low side and get a slower reverse in deep reduction, and normal in high low. But sometimes 18 spd are actually cheaper

[@monteowens9459]

Truck is sounding good and I can listen to them jakes all day. Sometimes I have to hit mine at speed just to make sure they’re working, lol! Take care and be safe my friend!

[@CMReid]

Good to see and hear the big W9 back on the road. Thanks for sharing. 👍🏼

[@jeffvandenberg8422]

Thanks for the ride along. Always wanted to see Chicago. Truck sound sweet. Cheers and stay safe. Cheers from Sarnia Ontario Canada 🇨🇦

[@thedetailingman3816]

Sounding good and looking clean! That is a good deal on the warranty for sure!

[@dallasheld9121]

I'm proud of you brother!.... Keep that left door closed and keep the greasy side down 🤘🤘

[@Runndeep]

It's a pretty penny but you cant put a price on piece of mind, especially when you're on the road.

[@Tech_Duster]

Joggers and loafers. Thats exactly what I wear every day. Its too comfy.

[@scottberry5266]

Glad you got a valley instead of a weller. I’ve got a weller in my Pete and haven’t been real happy with it, lots of oil leaks.

[@kinggrimlocksgaming1076]

just subbed en jeezzz that cat sounds like sweet music in my ears and better with window down thanks for that and looking forward for more vids of awsomeness be safe greetings from the netherlands

[@l2kxboost]

Anyone wanting to learn before cdl school. Get you a Logitech wheel with shifter and American trucker. It will make it ALOT easier. I do not own a cdl but have played a lot of American trucker and I said to myself multiple times that this game is the closest thing to driving the real rig. It looks the same.

[@christianvacaro76]

Parabéns pelo seu vídeo. Sou aqui do Brasil e tenho que comentar: Brasil é considerado um país de "terceiro mundo", mas aqui nossos caminhões e implementos possuem uma tecnologia de ponta que muitos países desconhecem. Um exemplo disso são caminhões com câmbio automático e repleto de muita tecnologia. Câmbio manual aqui no Brasil, já é passado.

[@22Tornado]

ele usa manual pq quer, é gosto

[@markopolo286]

She sounds great and helluva job shifting!

[@Thatonerandomcupcake]

Thanks for the ride along I enjoy it and I hit the subscribe button and the notification so far I like your channel see you at the next video and God bless you

[@steverevard3135]

smooth shiftin, soundin real good!!!

[@wishusknight3009]

And I will say I really enjoyed that view. Being able to see the tach, speedo and what gear you are in was fascinating for my mechanical mind! I enjoy that kind of thing. The only thing that could probably make it better was to see turbo boost and EGT. But that isn't worth spending the time to setup for that lol. Unless I am mistaking what the guages on the left mean.

[@ESKILAONABOLEIA]

nice dashboard

[@danielakili6705]

Respect Shqipe 👐🏻🫡

[@davidkopacek1187]

Oooh f*ck, this sound Is so amazing, love it 😱😍🤤👍👍👍

[@AM25Gaming]

Sounds awesome

[@martygt3357]

You are right about the top gear. In the 13 and 18 speed the top gear is .73, the same. And the 10 speed top gear is .74

[@nordic9270]

Hello from indonesia, nice truck,

[@pakitocalvillo1008]

Rig sounds in great shape

[@LuisDanielYT]

Another great video!! Your truck also sound so healthy!! That CAT is amazing! How is it compared to the DD60 you had on the Classic, in terms of mpg? I was in the US for vacations from the 1st to the 19th of Feb, I thought I saw your W900 next to Tampa, FL on a Monday afternoon. It wasn't you... your was on the workshop with the transmission being done. Bro, I dream of driving these trucks! I really do! I wish you all the best with you new setup!!! Regards from Portugal! :)

[@TruckingPassion]

The DD 12.7 was much better on fuel by 10 percent

[@uifturis]

35 hours of labor on a 10 hour job? Man they got you good

bad ass rigg great vid

[@dennisbiggs7040]

Love the Kwhopper

[@EliteBundy]

That new trans a little sticky I see haha always like that when new & tight like that. Doesn't quite float in and out easy at first but over time it gets better. Didn't know I could Rev match between splits on the downshift either, you just taught me that. Thanks bro! I failed My test but I'll retake it in 2 weeks & then you'll be seeing my Red W900L wrecker around that area. #SurburbanTowing

[@TruckingPassion]

Failure is just a leaning opportunity brother

[@MenzoKorver]

I would love to drive that truck and shift without using the clutch. Really old school. Something you hardly see anymore here in the Netherlands. Automatic transmission is what we have now. The new commercial drivers can't even handle a manual shifted truck. A 18 speed transmission is 3x3 speed with a splitter an every gear? (3x3x2 makes 18)

[@dizzythakidd7350]

lol itd literally like American truck simulator !!!!

[@semiprofessional8470]

Bro I didn't know you were in Michigan!

[@TheBAIN1]

Yesssir shifting good my boy I knw if u had the time and the tools for that transmission you would have D.I.Y BUT all in all that was about the rite price

[@leonardentz5324]

That's a awesome kw 900 it sounds great

[@westiskeja]

Nice one Shqipe

[@turkeyslayer63]

High gear on any transmission should be 1:1 unless it's an overdrive, you are correct to change final rpm the rearend determines that.

[@notchfox6086]

Sick ride! 👍👍🚛💨💨

Nice rig too ,

[@Dubya9W9]

looks good! got a 13 myself, grinds when switching from low to lhigh..will probably go with 18 when time comes to swap. Currently getting painted, bored out of my mind!

[@timcanizares5240]

Your probably going to fast when your shifting down from high to low

[@Dubya9W9]

@@timcanizares5240 lol low to high, and no..the Syncros is going/went out, nothing to do with my sifting

[@dizzythakidd7350]

As the previous Comment said Thank You for Great Angles/Happy Shifting Take Care

[@mistawallifornia2364]

my God what violence.

[@piotrdusza3936]

Greetings from central Europe. I was watching Your video and I felt pain in my wrists looking how your steering wheel is trying to break your thumbs. Is that normal in American trucks? I’m driving here Mercedes Atego it’s kind of a mid range truck and you can drive through freshly ploughed field and it’s not that dramatic on steering wheel

[@Thefloorsspeakyiddish]

Brand new trans and he's resting his arm on the shifter...

[@oscarr.camacho7257]

GREAT💪✌

[@Mr19761973]

Loved the ride, especially the sound of that beast!! Have you tried the Mud Flap app for a fuel discount?

[@TruckingPassion]

I used to use it a lot when I was over the road, not that great in Michigan

[@brianburke6350]

What’s with that steering wheel? Is that off a Mazda?

[@nibiru260]

Awesome video, It looks like your are constantly fighting the smaller wheel. Has that been an issue for you?

[@TruckingPassion]

Because I converted the front to an air ride the truck sits lower which in turn the steering drag bar link sits at a different angle and that's why the wheel movement

[@lionelhubbard5612]

Can anybody explain to me how did he shift without using clutch ? I have seen he is pushing and releasing gas pedal. I haven't seen this before. Is at only in US Trucks ? Truck is amazing. Beatifull sound 🤗
