Chicken Lights and CHROME for my New Peterbilt 389!

What should we do about rear fenders? I'm so torn....
Did we go overboard? What do you guys think of the name “Blue Collar 2.0”?
Massive thank you to the guys at Fitzgerald Peterbilt for making this all come together so fast and easy! Be sure to check them out!

Sure would sound better with functional stacks

[@rrhh5157]

It's a emissions truck without deleting it no sound will be made no matter what

[@fujitsubo3323]

he is keeping the truck legal for now dumb ass. connecting the stacks would do sweet fuck all to the sound or perfomance of the truck

[@mericaactual3030]

Wait a minute, the stacks are just for show? Lame.

[@Shakira_6.0]

I wanna see the DEF system fall off that thing so that the stacks can be functional. Them 8in cannons would sound badass on that rig. Also id like to see paint matched window chops, deck plate, strapless breathers, chopped breather tops, and a ton of custom lighting! Love lighting mods! Also one more thing, the I80 truck show is comin up in July, the second Thursday of the month through that Saturday. You should come! Id love to meet you!

When you rebuild the cab over you should paint it the same blue as the peter

Love the two blues 😍😍😍😍 I think the 9 cab lights would have looked awesome.

Love it. I don't think you over did it, but it definitely needs stainless extensions along the bottom of the cab and bunk to fill in the gap.

No get half fenders the step deck will destroy the full fenders go half the step deck is not designed for full fenders TRUST ME I have hauled step decks and other trailers go half fenders and when you buy a regular flatbed trailer go full

Bruce, horizontal things get leveled, vertical things get plumbed.

[@chorbajiiski]

Dude for everyone talking about the stacks do u not know that almost every new truck 389/W9 with def have dummy stacks?? Look up peterbuilt steve, 1 of top salesman for pererbuilt, and all his petes that are absolutely stunning and show ready when they leave the dealership have fake stacks. When u can afford to buy ur own custom pete like this one day, do what u want to it. Just my opinion

[@christramontana3598]

Wouldn't want a Pete like this def and e log and the payment I'm good I own my truck no def e log no payment

[@chorbajiiski]

@@christramontana3598 I agree 💯 with u…got a 98 detroit 60 and I’ve never owned or driven or a egr or def truck out of 5trucks I’ve owned. I’m just saying everybody got their own preference.

[@justinnotbusch9205]

It is awesome to see your dad back on the channel an nice rig too

[@wyatt007]

Full fenders!! Would look amazing

[@davidfrederick392]

Good friend of mine owns a small trucking company with about 30 trucks. The new Pete's he bought spent more time in the shop with DEF and egr problems than they did on the road. They were choked down so much that it was causing excessive wear on the engines and they had to be overhauled before 250,000 miles. Now when he buys a new one, he immediately voids the warranty by having the DEF and emissions crap deleted. It drastically improves fuel economy, power and longevity of the engine. Also he is able to make money with the truck because it's not constantly broke down in the shop.

[@scarlett-walker4908]

damn that's a beautiful truck i love it, i say go with the full FiberGlass Fenders i think it will look way better

[@dwightcorbett8889]

Love the visor, but it seems it should be a few inches higher. Bright metal half fenders or full, not color coded or wrap around. There's already enough blue with both the cab and frame being that color. Bright metal deck plate would look nice too.

[@bradleyparker234]

Thanks pops for all the help. Let bring her on home

Sweet looking truck! At least right now, it has a very modern yet classic look.

And I like the classic orange marker lights. Gives it a bit of an old school look to contrast with the new age tech.

Wow looks like a completely different truck, beautiful

[@richardaenriquez2122]

Hey Bruce. Love the Pete. I would have to save to go with full rear fenders or double hump rear fenders. Your Pete kinda looks like Project 351 except in a gorgeous blue

[@smokengearsgarage]

Congrats on the new rig, Bruce!! You'll have to find a midnight mechanic and have it deleted when the warranty expires. Send some noise up out those barrels!

[@kidsteach938]

I'd rather see some round 359 headlamps, and real stacks. The dummies just block rear vision when backing a trailer.

[@Xj.jeeper]

Yes 359 headlights would look sick

It's A peterbilt you stand out on the battery box when backing trailers and I would get rid of those factory headlights in favor of twin round 359 style with hyper blue led bulbs that would look awesome

Great 👍🏼 Job - Hi 👋 from Russia 🇷🇺 (Moscow City 🌆) …..

[@Cowboytrucker2024]

If the truck is 2007 or older it doesn't matter whether or not it's legal or illegal, because that was pre def But anything after that it is illegal to tamper With the Emissions of the truck. Each state has their own laws against it, But most do not enforce them. On a federal level that is a different case, I know this because I was a cop. But I have since changed professions and have been a truck driver for some years now. But I can tell you they make emission trucks like this Peterbilt With functioning stacks Ive had a 2007 pete 379 that was pre def And a 2020 pete 389 post def with functioning stacks... It is not illegal to change the exhaust direction of that single under cab exhaust pipe to the stacks on that truck As long as you do not remove the emission system That came factory. There still will not be any noise and there will not be any smoke, It would still function the same as it does now. The only time you might see the resemblance Of smoke is if it was really cold outside the truck then will smoke like your car after a cold start, But it will go away once the engine is warm. My Pete 389 did it every time it was 20s to single digits outside

[@timteague3996]

Sharp ride. Good luck and safe travels with your new pete
