History of Paccar Inc. | Truck History Episode 10

[@Rockybalboa493]

This is a true American legend and it doesn't get better than this. ''Stay young keep your wheels in motion.....!!''.

[@robertemmons2260]

Thank you for a very informative video! I deal with PACCAR, TRP, CAT, CUMMINS, and so many other parts everyday as that I deliver parts to our customers. I work for Kenworth Sales Co, Rocky Mtn. region based out of Salt Lake City. I have many customers who like the quality and value of PACCAR parts.

GREAT STORY! AS I AM BOTH A TRUCKER AND A RAILROADER, THIS WAS QUITE INTERESTING !!

[@jackschromeshop8296]

Thank you!

[@jed-henrywitkowski6470]

@@jackschromeshop8296 I once knew a railroader with a small regional firm that said, when he looks at a tractor-trailer near the yard, that thinks I want that load! As a trucker's son and a railfan, I am aware of the rivalry; I grew up around the consequences. I mean that in the city I lived in from infancy to about second grade, I saw many loading docks that were for rail use when my grandmother was a girl, used for tractor-trailers. I hope you are always safe.

[@brentb5303]

Awesome documentary! Keep up the good work. Lots of trucker politics on ANY topic but you just lay out facts so I like the format.

[@jackschromeshop8296]

Thank you sir. We are here to entertain and inform! Glad we accomplished our goal! 😊

I really appreciate & enjoy these truck history videos from Jack's Chrome Shop! I've found no other KZbin channel that has such a great collection of the information. And yes, when it comes to chrome....I do know Jack's

The image of 'laid-off' employees at the 9m26 mark is actually one of Paccar staff locked-out by the employer at the Ste-Therese (Montreal Qc) Canada plant in 2014 during union negociations. As mentioned the Ste-Therese plant was closed in 1996 but entirely rebuilt and modernized a few years later and still in operation today, where both Kenworth and Peterbilt class 7 trucks are built on the same assembly line.

How about a truck history focused around catapilar and thier involve their involvement in the trucking industry.

Thanks for your great videos. I inspect big rigs and videos like yours give me info that. While not really necessary for what I do, I learn a great deal of good information. Thanks. I really enjoy these.

[@nzsaltflatsracer8054]

I always considered the T600 a milestone in the evolution but it didn't even get a mention here.

[@jackschromeshop8296]

Only wanted to highlight the two big owner-op trucks. We cover it in our history of Kenworth video!

[@geomodelrailroader]

that is a good story for now the W900 is The King of The Road.

[@tedcantell9088]

I really hope that these guy's don't get rid of the W 900 cause i'm pretty sure that they will be able to shut the KW truck line right down and close the doors, they say sale's have been slipping down wards !!! well i'm so sorry to here that guy's, but if they get rid of the W-900 in the line up!! they might just as well close the doors, !!!!! just say'n !!!!!!!!

Don't forget paccar also bought Hays and put them out of business the Canadian built 18 wheelers

[@MikhailGoncharov-tl4cr]

I love PACCAR

[@chevyon37s]

Just be honest with us... we know the W900 is going away... it legally has to in 2025. They’re just being smart by getting the replacement (the W990) our early so people get used to it.

[@chevyon37s]

v8Truckerchannelv8 new EPA standards for fuel economy and aerodynamics for new medium and heavy duty trucks sold. And the external air breathers are a big air drag.

[@MarioHernandez-bx3mr]

Thanks for the info Drew

[@Aleiria13]

@ Drew; K&N has a conversion for this that helps both aerodynamics & helps force-feed the air intake of our trucks, is this going to help our older trucks, or will all of the old-school truckers be forced to replace their rigs??🥺

[@joseywales2037]

why is it goin away legally by 2025

[@Dalejrandsr88]

Would love to see a history of Autocar if at all possible

[@jackschromeshop8296]

Coming very soon, possibly with a special surprise 😊

[@michaellee5399]

I have only seen one autocar truck and that was in over the top lol

Kenworth and Pete should have never stopped putting cummins and cats in their trucks

[@glennso47]

PACCAR has a parts distribution facility in Rockford Illinois.

I hope they don't stop production of the w900 , it's the Cadillac of trucks, if they do i hope they bring back the k100 aerodyne

[@MrMopar413]

You left out Paccar’s purchase of Portland, Oregon based Wagner Mining Equipment company from Eddie Wagner in a stock purchase when Eddie Wagner took it public in 1973 and owned it for almost 20 years until they sold it to Atlas Copco of Sweden. Under the ownership of Wagner Mining in 1987 Wagner’s introduction of the LHD scooptram affactionately known as the ST-8B with the patented of the SHAR brake systems that revolutionized braking systems of underground mining equipment used today. How I know this I worked their in final assembly as a heavy duty diesel mechanic on the first ST-8B and built and installed most of the SHAR brakes for the next 15 years.

[@jackschromeshop8296]

Didn’t know that, thanks for sharing!

[@pennise]

The W990 looks like a cross between a KW, International, and a Freightliner. Somebody missed the mark way wide.

[@MihalisNavara]

I've always wondered why DAFs have Paccar engines...

[@dutchman2506]

Wonder Why Peet's and Kenworth have Paccar engine as this engine is a developed in the Netherlands,just so you know

[@MihalisNavara]

@@dutchman2506 It becomes more and more complicated...

[@guerguistoyanov137]

@@dutchman2506 This is a very advanced engine and is (in theory!!) very reliable. According to Paccar, MX engines are capable of B B ,i.e 90% of MX engines are capable (again, in theory!) to reach and exceed 1 000 000 miles mark. Usually, CAT engines are capable of B 50. Instead of using good old fashioned cast iron and forget steel, MX engines have a lot of components made from compressed graphite which in return gives less internal weight/inertia and higher strength and rigidity. At least in Europe, DAF engines (MX) have reputation for being relatively reliable and economical units. And yes, MX engines are Netherlands child not American one.

[@stephenhunter70]

I've always thought that Paccar had DAF engines.

I've driven both KenWorth and Peterbilt and in my opinion they turn like crap. If I pulled 45 and 48 feet trailers it wouldn't be so bad but with some of the places I've had to put 53 and 57 feet long trailers I'd rather drive something I don't take half the day doing it.

[@alleycat1084]

Sounds like a tractor and trailer might be too much for you to handle. Have you given any thought to maybe a dump truck or even UPS delivery? Leave the large cars to truck drivers.

Looks like somebody’s not a professional driver because the real ones out there can drive anything

[@darrencatenacci2737]

DoNot Need Agreed KW and Pete both have terrible turning radius and turning ratio also. They’ve never really improved turning ratio on any of their trucks. The thing you’ve noticed is practically every other truck out there has improved steering system.

Paccard trucks at this point cost way to much for what they are and how long they actaully last. They are weak under powered and over priced.

Great Northwest what are you talking about they run just as good as a Cummings and Detroit and cat as soon as you rip off the DPF lol

[@GreatNW]

@@MarioHernandez-bx3mr from what I have heard it not nessessarily a matter of power or smooth running it's life span. They are just trying to squeeze to much power out of a engine with that small a cylinder. But I'm totally with on the DEF I love me some chipped 60 series detriots.

[@MarioHernandez-bx3mr]
