I Bought a New Truck… Peterbilt 579 Tour

[@MrDAllen1124]

You really can't beat TruckPaper when it comes to filtering out *exactly* what you want in a truck. Nothing else comes close, honestly.

[@Pucky-4345]

Never did, your just 🐌 slow

[@JoshsTruckingadventures]

I went from a 20 579 to a 24 and I love both. As much as I love the classic trucks they don’t make sense anymore. The 579 are amazing trucks and I have the auto and have zero complaints.

[@NinoAmerica]

My 07 60 series makes a lot of sense. A lot of money. Idk what you are talking about

[@JoshsTruckingadventures]

@@NinoAmerica the majority don’t have them paid off. It also depends on your business and what you pull. Lots of variables. But if you had a proper speced aero truck that was paid off for what you do compared to a classic you’d make a lot more profit. That’s the point I’m making. You calculate the average classic gets 4.5-6.6 mpg. Most aero trucks are 6.8-9. That’s a lot of money givin to the greedy oil companies and not on your bottom line.

[@Curious-c1c]

The 'old-style' classic trucks aren't feasible anymore...economically. The newer Aero-efficient trucks are the only real choice going forward - at least if you want to be successful/comfortable/not-broke - just sayin'

[@JoshsTruckingadventures]

@@Curious-c1c true depending on what you do. The 389 I’m in isn’t not far off from the 579 I was in.

[@tommythompson3588]

Pittsburg Power Max Mileage, start running it right now. It’s expensive but worth every penny in that after treatment truck. Run it in mine zero issues.

[@OTRVic.]

Hotshots secret diesel extreme clean and boost works just as well it has been very good to me.

[@joshb2088]

It's all snake oil . Used both products no benefits

[@100pyatt]

Just stuck with pure 2EHN for your Cetane improvement. FPPF has a product called Cetane 8+ it's an excellent value for pure 2EHN

[@truckingwithcliff]

Fuel ox is another excellent product that helps with the after treatment DEF systems 1 Oz per 80 gallons

[@robertmiller7165]

Those are just fuel,treatments may,help but Max mileage is a catalyst and change molecules of the fuel to burn fuel hotter and stops soot which is the worst thing for emissions engines Also, the cost of Max Milage is pennies compared to labor and sensors

[@phillipchavez3705]

Congratulations man!! People say it's time to get out and even though I bought an older truck cash I did exactly as you said start win the market is down and I already run my ass off as a company driver but now on my own. Your awesome dude you help me get where I am today. Thank you for all your insight to everything about o/o

[@brandonhirst5940]

Good choice it’s simple economics from High School supply and demand. Supply is up and demand is down driving down truck prices. When the market was red hot everyone was trying to buy a truck to get in driving prices way up. Cash is king right now. Way to go!

Thanks bro 😎 The insurance addition held me up a lil longer than expected

[@Dachamp2001]

Im in a 2024. I'm jealous, lol. You got the dash. Mine is all digital i hate it. Plus, you got the better radio, and the cabinets have doors. Mine has the leather snap covers. But on the other hand. The top bunk can go, hood mirrors. Now add the emergency door and vented windows, pogo stick for the hoses. Lose the FW-17 fifthwheel for the FW-35. But all n all nice truck

[@Nobluffbuff]

I've been o/o for almost two months. I know what you've been driving, and I'm confident you'll be happy with the fuel mileage benefit.

They’re selling at auctions all over right now for $35-$45k but they polished that one up nice.

[@WB-Brown]

Figured it would be another long nose, was surprised. You will like the fuel mileage, hope the ride is good. If I got back on the road I wouldn't get anything but a Pete or KW long nose. Something about the ride and sound that is so much better than those aero trucks.

[@MakeCentsTrucking]

You got that right 🙌🙌

It is fancy! I love the inside of the cab and sleeper. Just need some chicken lights and new Mudflaps.

[@PotBotorg]

277385 on my Peterbilt only problem it went through one derate.. that's it not ONE single issue. Solid 579. WELL actually had to replace the brakes but they never last forever. Great trick

[@bradmyers3327]

Cool my brother. Thanks for the inspiration. Truck is wicked nice!!!!!!

[@Misesian86]

I’m not a fan of former fleet trucks. They don’t do the required maintenance. They change the oil and tires and that’s about it. I won’t buy used again. However, when buying a used truck; change the DEF filter, run the overhead, have the DPF and DOC cleaned by DPF Alternatives, do a DieselForce service. You’ll fix a lot of issues before they happen doing that list. I did that on any used truck I bought. You’d be surprised how much soot and carbon is in these engines from large fleets.

[@rollinghillstrucking]

Im super stoked brother! You are doing amazing! I love it! Awesome video as always!

[@MakeCentsTrucking]

😎👊 appreciate it bro

[@jamesclee1722]

If you are going to run Cali with it make sure you get that clean idle decal put back on there I bought a truck from them and got a $500 ticket first trip for not having it on there ( should be on drivers door just below mirror)

[@Imissmusicvideos]

Freymiller has nice trucks. I was thinking around 80-90k so don't beat yourself up on not getting an absolute bottom dollar deal. You probably paid 25-30k less than if you bought a year ago and you got that $15k TriPac as a nice bonus. Inventory is going up while prices are coming down. I bought my 2017 ProStar back in late '20 from a large fleet. They put new rubber, new alum wheels, new bumper, fixed and serviced the apu as well. I wouldn't hesitate buying another truck from a large fleet. I plan on upgrading to a '21 or '22 in the springtime. Very nice truck Sammy.

[@MakeCentsTrucking]

I really like there system 🙌

[@DAZZA1933]

Your very wise chose your dealer before you chose your truck ✅😊👍I really love that truck here in Australia we are right hand steering. Peterbilts are my favourite trucks.you guys are soooo fortunate great highways awesome truck stops, and you can buy a truck like yours for $80,000 dollars. Over here in Australia very very rare to see peterbilts on our roads. Lots of kenworths and Scania Volvo Mack’s which are now owned buy Volvo. Freightliner. And lots and lots a Japanese trucks. You guys are soooo blessed. Happy trucking 🎉I love ❤️ that sleeper layout.our sleepers are small compared to yours and being able to have such long wheelbases is awesome. 🤩 cheers

[@timothygiesalhart2896]

I bought a 2018 Walmart 579 big difference from my 379 but the ride and room is amazing you will love it i also have a way to trick the truck if you have the adaptive cruise control the beaping will drive you crazy if you unbolt it and point it to the ground and zip tie it up works like normal cruise it wont hit the auto brakes when following to close to another vehicle

[@littlefellatrucking324]

Tell me more because I keep getting ACC faults. Cruise won’t stay set. The best I can do is tap the brake first, then set. Cruise net work for up to 15 minutes. Sometimes a little longer

[@timothygiesalhart2896]

@littlefellatrucking324 I took mine acc sensor from the front bumper and pointed it to the ground you will have to zip tie it up now it doesn't beep or slow me down when cruise is set that might fix yours or your acc sensor might be going out every one and a while mine beeps when I'm in traffic and it picks up the metal bridge joints but that's it

[@veracityseven]

Tomorrow, I'm heading over to the dealership (DADS) in Idaho Falls, Idaho. They have over 12, 2020 Peterbilts at appr. 420k miles, automatics, $51,000.

Congratulations! I have almost the exact same truck. Mines is viper blue, has the paccar motor with 510hp, 13sp, 3.42 rears, dual exhaust, and a single bunk. I wanted the Cummins but it was an extra 700lbs and thousands of dollars more. I'm glad I ordered my truck though. I couldn't find one like it anywhere at the time.

delete that collision avoidance system. you will not like it when it picks up a shadow and decides to detonate your breaks because of it. other than that get the pdi air intake, tuner. add turbo system. you'll enjoy it. and change the rears to 3.36 for long hills. 3.25 is too high of a gear unless you plan on hauling ass.

[@atarijones5056]

No no no a huge fleet will run those trucks into the ground before they turn them in. Air bags will leak and all the filters need replacing plus air dryers are always clogged and need replacing and dont forget to change all the brake chambers also and the drive and acc belt too then it will run for a while but I always thought Cummins but as long as a paccar gets the oil tapped off and the recalls taken care of and the coolant level right they are the best and I get 8.2mpg with a 20k load and 7.2 with 42k and one last thing the mitigation system will be hell to Uninstall because they need to disconnect it from the abs brakes also so these things should be the reason not to buy a fleet truck with idle c ut off and the mitt system
