C-15 550 Cat Straight piped and Jake brake

Hauling a yacht to Seattle pulling out of Vantage, Wa, check out the ending!!! Gotta love the Jacobs engine retarder with 6" straight pipes, and yes the windows are still up!!!!

[@caleb505]

Man, videos like this just make me want to hurry up and turn 21 and start trucking over the road!

[@eddiealfaro5487]

Are you trucking now?

[@ThunderingDiesel]

time flies dont it, hows trucking?

[@e16able]

AWESOME, i want to be a trucker when i grow up, i'm still 36.

[@runincool01]

Thank you for posting this video. I don't know why it was made but it sure brought back good memories. I'm a Desert Storm veteran and an ol' refer hauler (runincool) from the pacific northwest that's seen better days (living on SSD) and this video allows me a few minutes to "quietly" reflect. Many thanks. Hope to see more like this one.

[@BUL-SON]

Let that man rock n roll during his job! Sweet sound and good music choice *thumbsup*

[@TheBCSledder]

I just keep watching this and never get tired of that cat sound :D

[@lucasdobson9278]

Love the cat best engine mad for a truck

[@athonynesbitt7956]

The only music i need is hearing that Cat 3406E through them Straight pipes😊😊😊😊😊

[@ryanpierce6178]

But it’s nickel back lol

[@1994delicaman]

I love that sound! You gotta love cat engines!

[@FVAS2007]

The last cat I heard was 20 years ago. Thanks for the memories, felt like home again!

[@flat4subie]

Good lord! Love the sound of that kitty Cat hauling ass up those hills, split a gear passing everything. Very cool!

[@Seveneleven44]

I have the same motor & truck. 4.08 rears for pulling hills in PA. I just got a full set of turbo back 6" straights with Aussie cut tips. I had debacles mufflers but I decided on straights. You can't beat the sound of a CAT.

[@pier72]

The sound of this engine is music!!Beautiful music!!

[@mitchcartablancakenworth3681]

music killed it

[@alecmitchell4535]

Dude turn the music down, so can hear that cat better, other wise way cool

[@scaleop4]

man I love the sound of that engine.

[@GerOffYeWeeBastard]

Turn that damn radio off! I can't hear the engine!

[@xadmiral291x]

notice that C15 smoking past those trucks loaded uphill! nothing like a CAT !

[@gunther482]

Nice truck. We recently purchased a 06 Pete with dual 7" straight pipes. Best sound ever.

[@arosaadmin]

Awesome video, if you have a chance load more videos like this on the cabin. i love the whistle of the turbo, the CAT-15 is a powerfull machine.

[@JU-lj8hl]

What a pull uphill, then the sudden drop. Nice.

[@Cumminator2005]

i drive a 2002 Kenworth T800 with a C-15 cat and a 10 speed and man i would be in like 6th gear climbing that hill at 20mph but i haul feed for dairys so im usually about 105,500 lbs haha impressive truck to say the least

[@TruckerDan75]

Man that was SICK!!! Love strait pipes!!!

[@CountrySloth]

Nice video, awesome truck, and kickass scenery

[@justinrasmussen8802]

I see all these comments about the music and I can here the Jake engine sound just fine even with the music on

[@catdieselpower193]

dam rite! sweet vid pard!

[@brent440]

Gotta love the big dozer engines, I call them. My brother has an acert 550hp, 928 cubic inch, the monster pulls like a train and he can run as fast or faster than my Cummins, but, my lil 855 cubic inch 525hp N14 can close the gap up any of our little hills in North and South Dakota when I'm following him. We both run at 93 thousand pounds and feel like big fat targets for DOT anywhere south of the dakotas If I didn't like my N14 so much I'd like to have the bigger 3406E or 6NZ Cat modified up to 800hp ..I guess there's a smaller displacement of the 3406E as well. I have twenty years in auto and heavy truck parts and heard a lot of good things about S60 Detroits too

[@Kamkam_90]

Yes Mt. Rainier!!!! I miss seeing it everyday.... Great shot

[@DB-47]

What a long steep gradient, almost as long and steep as the one from Dead sea to Jerusalem

[@keithinapete1017]

😂😂😂😂

[@BrianW._1313]

@tannerair no doubt that when it comes to HEAVY haul, you australians are in a class all by yourselves. head & shoulders above the rest!!! very impressive!!!

[@jasongreene303]

It was just another shifting/jaking video until the end. Nice vid!

[@e16able]

Sounds ever better than a diesel train, good stuff mate keep it coming.

[@ForeverEuroHouse]

[@zackarylong5934]

[@lucasdobson9278]

[@TowMater603]

[@SANDMAN3622]

[@PAUL_K]

[@pointingdog7235]

Man that kitty can go! Sounds great.

[@RussellAllen_SteadyRollin247]

Hell Yeah Driver! Made me miss rollin around the country! Keep the rubber on the road and keep on truck'in! Over and out!

[@Stream1222]

Im listening to this before i go to sleep ;)

[@terremoto..6809]

Lovely sound

[@glenmann62]

Nothing like the sound of a cat , The turbo whistle sounds just like a jet in flight , I remember making trips to Mexico to pickup pottery loads in Tijuana back in 78 with the first Aerodyne to come out from KW, My boss ordered the Bicentenial edition conventional built to celebrate the 200 years as United states , It had a red white and blue color scheme , it had a3406 cat that whistled dixie, it also had a 286" WB , we added some accent chrome but it didn,t need alot since it was already nice!

[@6str8up]

isnt it nice having power! nice video man

[@MrShaneac1]

Takes me back to when I used to drive

[@Jurgy777]

I-90 near Vantage, long climb heading west. Many truck engines have blown up pulling that hill.

[@kellyolsick4727]

[@thejourneyretold]

Vantage is not very easy to pull...and you made it look like cake! props man..

[@trevorholt5749]

Hell Yea Brother

[@outperformancelife3145]

What is the brand of your truck? It looks like a cab over.

[@GOLTURBO555]

@poldrag08 u shift very well! including when have one camera in the hand... and reduce gears very fast, nice skills.

[@Pray4Mojo1]

Had this exact same engine in my old international. Didn't like, most of my pays were spent fixing it and paying for fuel. It was way too loud too, I like loud trucks and the sound of a 550 CAT but it gets really irritating after driving for a few hours. 3406E is my favorite cat engine in terms of reliability.

[@tonylewis7298]

That music killed the turbo! Sounded good before that

[@userfriendly1981]

Kenworth t800???

[@13Dunbar]

Shit that c15 sounds so sweet, wish my"n sounded like that....

[@kcnaomorreu1]

thanks!

[@dalgat-abumuslimov]

[@prudyschwarz3456]

What state was this it looks like Colorado

[@markedwards9874]

Good owd cat 👍👍

[@Xantec]

was the mountain just after the ryegrass sign Mount Rainier?

[@MotorHead631]

Does this happen to be in Kansas?

[@petegambiani9012]

Pretty sure you've got your windows cracked. I own a similarly equipped '02 t800...550 6nz, 13sp, 6" pipes with the external air cleaners and its nowhere near that loud with the windows up. Nice try anyway.

[@champ0925]

love this video making me want to go take the w900l out for a spin

[@GOLTURBO555]

@catC15twinturbo hey hey respect the kenworth cabover! They r nice

[@katherinetorres5636]

I want to work for a company that has a beast like this

[@athonynesbitt7956]

Me to bro i love driving big rigs

[@Officernasty781]

how fast were you going

[@mikedilbert6599]

Sounds awesome. No disrespect intended but how does your head feel after listening to that for 8 + hours.

[@StonedPony1]

I am not the guy in this video, but I can tell you that it doesn't bother you at all. You can tell a lot about your engine just listening to it. Hell driving over a hundred and you can't even hear them, but for a small rumble.

[@JRWILDY]

i cant believe how quiet the roads are compared to the uk

[@ch.roughhabit5002]

king of the hills 💙❤️💚

[@nicholi56]
