What a privilege it is to own a 359 with a 3408, specifically a clattering PCTA model!

[@paulcartanzajr52]

The truck had left our family and was gone a long time before we had gotten her back, the story on her coming back home was pretty special and amazing, we will try to do a video just on that when we get a little more time

[@Carolinastrucks]

That is genuinely a perfect pete

[@westernstar85]

This is truly the 1 of the coolest videos I’ve seen on you tube in a long time. From the farming operation to the trucks too cool. Always admired those trucks, I believe I crossed the 359 and 379 on 83 in Harrisburg this week. Or somewhere in that area. And that ford L9000 is pretty darn cool too!

[@nicholasperkowski8833]

You probably saw Arden Farms. They have #6 the twin to the 359 and also they painted a 379 to match. We haven't been that far north yet this year. The L8000 was a straight truck, converted it to a road truck couple years ago. Thanks for nice comment!

[@bobme2787]

That concrete shop is nice

[@paulcartanzajr52]

Thank you, it was built in the mid 80's for our trucking fleet, we have since downsized and mainly use the shop for our farm equipment now that it has all gotten so much bigger

[@KevinChristiansen-i2q]

glad to see the ole girl back on the road absolute beauty (beautiful trucks with some sweet drivers to)

[@kirktitgen2309]

That’s one impressive farming business you got going on and I love the cleanliness 👊💪☝️I live in Pottstown pa and shop at renders ,giant,and acme ….do I get your potatoes in these stores ????

[@paulcartanzajr52]

Our potatoes do end up in some of the local places, most of the time they are bagged up in the grocery store or brokers bag label nowadays, it's not how we would like it but it's how the buyers want it, the proud individual farmers have lost their identity over the years being able to ship under their own label

[@paulcartanzajr52]

Our potatoes during harvest are sent all up and down the east coast during our harvest season. August/ September

[@paulcartanzajr52]

As far as our cleanliness, my grandfather, our founder, demanded perfection, and although we are far from perfect, it's what we strive for everyday in every thing we do! Thank you for the nice comments and we appreciate you watching, the kids really enjoy putting this stuff together

[@taylor11089]

@@paulcartanzajr52Do any of you alls Potatoes go for Fries or Chips, or are they just Grocery Store Potatoes? What Types of Potatoes do you all Grow, any Sweet Potatoes? Seems like they grow Potatoes in Pockets all over the US. It is definitely a Interesting sector of Farming. Different than some of the Midwest Traditional Crops that I am use to.

[@paulcartanzajr52]

@@taylor11089 each year really is different, as the market moves from Florida up, a lot of things change / needs change. Although we pride ourselves on the fresh market side ( small pack for grocery stores ) we also do a fair amount of bulk run potatoes for potato salad, French fries and, in the past we did grow for a few of the leading brands of potato chips. Each of these requires a certain variety of potato

[@kizerbread]

That 359 is a 💎

[@speedandmarine9066]

Lots of good looking old iron there and old iron is the best kind!

[@ramonrivas2606]

Congratulations on getting your CDL driver

[@davidham1687]

Mercy. It has been a pleasure to watch this family and friends go about their business and enjoy those really nice Peterbilts. I had new 359's in 1982 and 1986 and what I wouldn't give to have one of them now. It was always fun to pull into the truck stop and flip the switch and watch that long hood on the 86 pop up. Lots of second looks and "What the..?". A very nice operation, and that big concrete shop has me envious. Keep up the high standards, folks, and good fortune will smile upon you. Take care and safe travels, even if it is only local. Best wishes from Canada.

[@paulcartanzajr52]

Thank you! We appreciate the comments and will do our best!

[@davidsimons6881]

Awesome old 359.

[@302potatoes]

Thank you!

[@taylor11089]

That Peterbilt 359 is Sharp, Left Side Air Cleaner, you know what that means, Cat 3408 (or a Cummins KTTA) Motor! Sharp Stainless Steel Timpte Hopper Bottom, I like the Blue Tarp on it, but the only Downside to Colored Tarps (compared to a black tarp) is that you have to Scrub & Wash them Good if you want them to stay looking Nice. I’ve had my CDL around 12-13 Years Now, DMV is still my Least Favorite Place to Visit besides the Doctor/Dentist Office.

[@adamtheede2575]

Finally a cool truck and not a cheap Detroit noise maker so refreshing also I’m biased to Cat lol

[@NickManCuso59]

[@302potatoes]

Thanks!!

[@stevekegerreis1962]

WOW !!!! A 359 with a V8 cat . One hell of a shop. All of the family working together and doing top notch work. Plus a friend with a beautiful 362 !!! First time watching your channel and I will be looking for more because I Hit that subscribe button. Thank you Ya'll ride safe

[@paulcartanzajr52]

The V8 had left our farm for a long time, she had some legendary owners, Tony Gegor in Maryland, Darrell Andrews in North Carolina, and back home to us thanks to Mr Andrews! It has a pretty cool story behind finding it and bringing her back home, we plan on doing a video on it sometime in the near future! Thank you for the compliment on the shop, it was built in the mid 80's . We are a small family farm and we like it that way, and we are surrounded by great friends that makes it all worth while! Thank you for watching and subscribing

[@michaelsorrentino9279]

Damn it son!! a real purdy 352 !
