I drove Dump trucks as a Teamster (282) for over 35 years in New York City and all surrounding States. Retired with some disabilities now. I did enjoy the KW 800's and 880's. This video is over a year ago so a belated congratulations to you. I started in the early 1980's back when very few owned new trucks so you could imagine the hunks of junk I drove on my time. It's so nice to be in a truck that doesn't fight back. I started in a B model MACK with a Quadraplex transmission and moved up to a 1968 MACK DM 800 with a 18 speed Quadraplex. Back then there were mostly Tandem trucks on the road. Anyway thanks for listening, I love your videos. Keep on Truckin' and keep the rubber side down.

Great to see you finally got a truck!! I was super excited when I got mine years ago. I mostly hauled asphalt, and gravel, but I really liked the asphalt jobs.

Having followed your journey for years your development is amazing. Now, working as a Heavy Equipment Tech in The High Arctic you just might benefit from using Arctic Grade lubricants and Grease during winter time. Uphere we spray every outside placed part that moves something with an aerosol driven Arctic Lubricant, and works great. I am looking forward to see you develop your trucking business, with your drive I am sure that you will need a lot of truck numbers pretty soon. Merry Christmas.

[@stepheng1082]

Nice looking rig. Chances are the trailer brakes are frozen up as well with the dogs and reach locks. Be careful that the truck gate doesn't hang up on the reach lock when you're Jack knifed to dump the truck. It's good to let the truck box come down a ways before pulling forward especially with those sturdy weld reach locks. On uneven ground the truck gate can contact the reach possibly. All the best on your new venture.

[@Peter-gi3re]

Congratulations, that looks like a very clean truck for 2003. May you have many happy miles on the road.

The 9 speed worked okay since I was mostly I-5 between Vancouver BC and Olympia.

Happy trucking Dauminique. But some tips . It will sound a bit tedious , BUT, FROM MY EXPERIENCE OWNING HEAVY VEHICLES, when you buy a vehicle that was standing for a while it is best to do an examination first BEFORE you start to work it.1.) Free up and lubricate ALL mechanical moving joints, linkages eg. trailer tailgate. GREASE and do a proper examination of the FRONT END and wheel bearings. Replace worn PARTS. 3) OVERHAUL COMPLETE BREAKING SYSTEM. REPLACE ALL BREAK DIAPHRAMS They can rapture under load. You DO NOT kNOW if they are dry rotting. Two incidents.A) This almost cost me a vehicle.2) Inexperience driver - piston seized up IN WHEEL, cause vehicle to capsize. When vehicle was not loaded all worked great ,BUT, under load TROUBLE.

The tube that connected to the slack adjusters got a build up of hard grease. Tare it apart and clean all that hard grease out and then Maxi canister and slack adjusters should operate a lot smoother with out using a hammer. Hope this helps.🇺🇸

What an amazingly clean and straight truck. Beautiful.

Start with whatever you want. Beauty of owning your own company .

[@garyolafson8303]

Pretty color & wheels for you. Grey color, almost looks light sky blue depending on daylighting. My high school buddy, PA logger prefers KW. Me (not a trucker) watch U-Tube Peterbilt rotator crane upright semi's & Peterbilt tow trucks pull snow stuck semi's over CA Donner Pass, and Colorado I-70 Summit

Fair play looks newer than 2003 looks brand new

[@harryforvour8285]

great purchase with a caterpillar engine

[@fuzzybutkus8970]

Here in Mi. We can haul 161k with a 36 ft lead,Two axle dolly and 24 ft pup with 9ft spread. Legally everyday if plated. I never got that long ass hitch. Trucks clean as heck for 03’ but short doubles are just that. If you have a landaull or RGN you can use a tractor for all. Not ice it’s rust,Marvel Mystery oil to the rescue. Dump the hammer grab the oil can.and grease gun.

[@Plowguitarist]

Awesome!! Single turbo cat and 18spd, can’t go wrong with that. And tell your husband Peterbilt is the “Cheaperbilt” division of Paccar.

[@DauminiqueTheDumpTruckDriver]

Lol I’ll tell him

[@ricardotrujillo5106]

The older the better my friend. The newer one have that def system and sensors plus sensors all around. This is a stronger truck also. Keep the good videos coming. God bless you and your family and business.

[@DauminiqueTheDumpTruckDriver]

I’ve driven a lot of new trucks, if you have a mechanic that knows about them then you’re fine.

***CONGRATULATIONS....1st VID I HAVE SEEN FROM UR CH & LOOK FORWARD TO MORE(& working thru u vids already posted)*** I would ❤ to see a detailed vid showing how everything operates & the purpose of things on the inside & outside of the trk & dump trailer. Like the reach trailer, which I guess extends/retracts(what's the purpose?), what are all the gauges, how does the floating axles raise/lower & so on. BEAUTIFUL SET UP MA'AM, WE CAN TELL UR SO PROUD TO OWN IT, AS U SHOULD....HARD HONEST WORK ALWAYS PAYS OFF!!!

[@3069mark]

Nice rig. I don't really know anything about dump trucks, but I was an OTR truckdriver for 13 years before I retired. I remember one time in the late 90's I pulled into the fuel islands of the old 76 Truckstop in Oak Creek, WI and there was a shiny new Mack Granite there and it was one of the most beautiful trucks I ever saw. I don't know if they were good trucks or not but they sure were beautiful.

[@truckerray7533]

Nice Kenworth T-800!!! Kenworth W900's are my favorites followed by the Peterbilt 359's

[@victorbasta7359]

She's a beauty. Looks brand new.

[@DauminiqueTheDumpTruckDriver]

Thanks!

[@thomasharding7235]

Congratulations! Great truck. After seeing the thumbnail and watching the video I'm 99.9% sure that was originally purchased new by my father. I say that because I spent 2hrs EVERY Saturday washing it along with many others for 2yr stretch of my life. Great job for a 16yr old... Anyways had to comment as seeing it brought back many good memories. Best of luck with everything!

[@chrishankins905]

That’s beautiful congratulations. That’s definitely something to be proud of

[@DauminiqueTheDumpTruckDriver]

Thank you

[@jameskirchner2655]

Very nice Dump truck. I use to drive dump trucks and a lumber truck with the spider on back. I'm disabled 3 hip replacements so no more CDL😢the best feeling was driving. You be safe and always take care of the equipment it will take care of you🙏

[@jameskirchner2655]
