Such a good looking truck 😍

[@raymondbradley6788]

James, that was looking a little sketch trying to do that by yourself. Glad you got some help. Looks 100% better without that thing on it, good job.👍👍👍

[@JamesPretty]

Thx Raymond

[@NickManCuso59]

Hi James enjoy your sunny weather Woke up this morning to find SNOW on the roof tops second day in a row. Typical Montana spring weather ! 🥶 The truck looks much better !

[@JamesPretty]

Thx nick

[@NickManCuso59]

@@JamesPretty Yep. Less weight more freight !

[@richardhoneywell7411]

Great video James Twelve looks good as a flat top. Look even better without the fairings on the tanks and better with steps on the tanks give you a little more ground clearance for logging. Thanks for sharing stay safe James and Jessica.

[@JamesPretty]

Thx Richard

[@RodHinman-zr6ps]

Good call taking the roof fairing off keep up the good work James

[@JamesPretty]

Awww yes, so glad you're doing this 🙏🏻

[@jpbnr2931]

Great decision taking the roof faring off! The truck looks 100 times better! I wasn't a fan of the green fld's but that made a huge difference. Nice work James!!

[@JamesPretty]

Ya it’s kinda amazing how much better it is. Appreciate ya

[@jeffreyadams8811]

Looks way better without the fairing in my opinion James

[@JamesPretty]

They need straightened anyway might try it

[@jasonlefley2117]

The truck looks so much better with that off. Will look better again with all the plastic sides off. This video seams to be getting more views. Keep up the good work and stay safe

[@JamesPretty]

Thanks Jason

[@rickmunson8317]

[@user-zo1os7cv7w]

Hi Mr. James, you are amazing and a great truck

[@JamesPretty]

Thank you

[@scootersmith7173]

The truck looks a lot better now. But you know the roof flaring was used to cut down on the wind drag to the trailer. Which helped save on fuel. Can't wait to see more of you and your videos.

[@JamesPretty]

Appreciate ya being here

[@danmacsween3448]

She looks much better with all that wind stuff gone !lol Great idea and job man ! 🇺🇸🇨🇦👍

[@JamesPretty]

Couldn’t agree more. Thx Dan

Good job getting that off the roof I think it looks better too the fat top keep up the hard work brother be safe on the airplane captain

[@JamesPretty]

Thx brother

[@user-bu2xg3ej3j]

Hi JAMES FROM EASTCOAST AUSTRALIA she looks much better as a flat top be safe and hang in there I like your stuff.

[@JamesPretty]

Thx for being here. Much appreciated

[@johnbird2703]

Looks much better now, once you get the side fairings off that will be a nice truck. Moving on Mr P Keep at it 😊

[@JamesPretty]

Ya I think so too

[@raykev27]

High Temp black spray paint and that whole pipe will save you time and money . Maybe add a little black to that green and it will pop nice James . Looks great without that hat . Great Video .

[@JamesPretty]

Not a horrible idea

[@neilmcintosh1200]

A worthwhile task done. Is it going to get a contrast stripe like X has?

[@JamesPretty]

It needs one huh

[@neilmcintosh1200]

Those Terro ant baits really work good. I've used them in my home and they work fast and effective.

[@FreemanHochstetler-mr3ns]

I’m late but I’m here, so much better looking now that you got that crap off the roof, so hard not having 4 arms, be careful and safe. Yeah Right. 😂

Good beautiful morning brother

[@JamesPretty]

Morning bro

[@ralphredmondsmull1773]

nice job getting the top off the truck looks better without it

[@JamesPretty]

Thx Ralph

[@daveliggett5910]

It looks a whole lot better James. Nothing like a ole flat top

[@JamesPretty]

I couldn’t agree more

[@fredschell3972]

James, I noticed you revved your engine up before you turned it off. That causes your turbo to turn at a high speed with no oil supplied to it and raw fuel to wash down the cylinders. I always let my truck idle a while before shutting it down. Just a thought. Your doing a great job with your fleet. Thanks for keeping us entertained. Long time subscriber.

[@JamesPretty]

Ya you’re right. I know better. I have a few bad habits

[@robertfranki5477]

I prefer with the top on because it gives the truck a distinct advantage over the other regular flat top FLD s out there

[@bobbarenthin7437]

Much better . Peterbilt mike could use that fiberglass for smokey lol 😆

[@JamesPretty]

Possibly. But shipping would be worse then ever

[@michaelwinter9733]

Looking good 👍👍👍👍👍

[@JamesPretty]

Thx Michael

[@benjaminfjacksonsr5220]

Need another stack put on it now .

[@JamesPretty]

It does for sure

[@hammers1518]

Looks good as flat top. So, brake lights still not working on Krystal? They didn't light when you were backing up.

[@JamesPretty]

I checked em They do work but I’m not sure if low pedal force doesn’t light the lights or Not Cause I haven’t had anyone push the pedal for me

[@brentbell9543]

Looks way better as a flat top.

[@JamesPretty]

Thanks I agree

[@keepontruckinoutlawlife1248]

Looks way better driv,ah 😎🤙🏻

[@JamesPretty]

Sure does brother

[@darrencatenacci2737]

Hi James and Jessica looked a little iffy for a minute or two, but off it came. Too bad that stack couldn’t be saved but rust never sleeps. Think it looks better without it. I don’t know if you’ll really need it anyway it’s probably gonna be a log hauling truck. You should probably take the side fairings off too. They will probably give you ground clearance issues if I remember correctly those were pretty low on that style truck. Hopefully the top cleans up ok sometimes you take those off and the paint is pretty bad under there. Stay safe

[@JamesPretty]

Thx brother. Let’s see what’s next for it

[@darrencatenacci2737]

Seems like a plan to me. Used to drive one almost the same as that mine had sit down sleeper on it. Was really a decent truck, no room in it tho.

[@sterlingknight83]

She looks good! Glad you got help. It looked a little sketchy.

[@JamesPretty]

Ya it’s so Large it’s hard to handle

Thanks Billy

[@billysmith2494]

Morning James I think 12 looks a lot better as a flat top now get rid of the side fairings and it will look like a new rig keep up the good work brother love what you do

[@JamesPretty]

On the fence about the side fairings. But you’re probably right

[@billysmith2494]

I think so and then you need to do something that you did on 13 as well

[@johnwalsh1903]

I like the side fairings keep them

[@JamesPretty]

I’ll try it both ways

[@tombeltz2087]

Oh okay

Thx James

[@spudhauler]

Not very often you get to improve the look of your trucks so much without spending money.👌👍🇬🇧

[@JamesPretty]

True. It was cheap and relatively easy. This truck needs step tanks and dual pipes

[@spudhauler]

I'm with you on that.👍 not many aerodynamics add to the appearance of trucks.

[@richwilson8658]

now you need 2 stacks

[@JamesPretty]

It sure does

[@leonrose7799]

HI James she looks much better but remember she needs a new name how about spider rider you remember the spider you got in the brake hub?😂😂❤

[@JamesPretty]

Hahaha nice. I think the spider came from 13 tho

You need to get her on the road bru...

Been tryin. But I don’t have a lot of free time and hard to put a driver in a truck ya know

[@deandauner3255]

How many men to take off a roof faring ? 3 one in the front one on each side. Or gauge out the roof. 😅

Ya. Wish I had more than one guy. But it worked out ok

yes JP, a NON working Truck, does not need a roof fairing- As U know, the Trucking industry is fighting ways to save on fuel- In case U haul Box trailers with this Truck, U may need it back.

[@JamesPretty]

I believe at best this is a log truck

[@fastback5201]

Hello driver! Looks so much better and would look alot better with 2 stacks..my 2 cents worth! Lol

Ya two stacks would be way better
