I like what you said about not everyone has 100k to spend on a new truck.. the 12 valve is reliable and legendary..

[@brucekocher8241]

As a 30 year truck driver, I appreciate you putting that message out to the dumb asses that can’t appreciate how hard it is to stop when they pull their fuckery. Thank you, great video as always.

[@dennislockhart7290]

If only they would listen out here

[@hotshothauler]

Damn good message to start this off. I'm hauling a 40ft goosneck and weighing in at 40,000 at the heaviest and people don't realize I can't stop quickly.

[@steveswart8120]

Thanks Steve for taking us along, always interested in what you are up to.

[@stephenabril7084]

As a retired truck driver ( because I finally had enough of idiots trying to run me off the road and then call my boss and complain!) I salute you Steve!!!

[@WelderUpVegas]

Thanks Stephen!

[@craigmaverick]

I bought a new 2005 Dodge Ram 2500, last of the 5.9's, 6 speed manual, black, 4x4, quad cab, long bed truck that I still have today with only 113K miles on it. Love that truck and it was only $35K back in 2005. 100K for a new truck is crazy!!

[@1982MCI]

I bought a new one in 2001 and it was $32k. Wish I still had it today!

[@timburnette5914]

My dad was a over the road truck driver. Coast to coast ever week and he talked about those damn idiots that you just mentioned. Made him mad as hell! He would agree with you 100%. But he’s passed on now so just the memories! Thanks brother!

Yr welcome and sorry to here that. I bet we would have made great friends too. I am disabled now, but I drive trucks for 30 years, I loved it.

[@terryvuylsteke2434]

You Steve(A.K.A.) the metal surgeon are awesome! Keep the videos coming brother, and as always, cheers from Canada!!!

[@WelderUpVegas]

Thanks Terry, I think I like that title, " Metal Surgeon". Thanks you, nice of you to say. Cheers to Canada!!!

[@HogshooterHotrods]

Love the 12 Valves and having the sense to not cut up a truck that needs to be used in its original form, make money on that one to build another!

[@davidlough2182]

Awesome video Steve can't wait for the next one keep up the good work 🤟😎

[@scottrobinson9666]

Keep them coming steve. We will take any video you got time to make for us.

Finding treasures in the desert is awsome, keep it up Steve, cool stuff will always be cool stuff!😎

[@Mosiert93]

9:00 hell yea Steve, that's why I'm 12v swapping my old chevy crew cab. I could spend $100k on a nice truck today and it still wouldn't be the truck i WANT.

[@krishimmel6747]

Oh yeah you can get some pretty good deals out here in Las Vegas I drive truck over here locally in Vegas I fuel up at the TA there on blue diamond every other day

[@jakespeed63]

Dammit Man...I remember prepping these when they were brandy new, at the Dodge dealership. We sold the crap out of these trucks. People loved them, although I also remember rebuilding the Transmisson in a ton of them as well. Good score.

[@lchebuhar9212]

Thanks for taking us along for the ride! 💪👍🏼

[@WelderUpVegas]

Thanks for watching!

[@Dwayne7834]

Thanks for the video . Great looking trucks. Keep the videos coming.

Just started putting a '49 f135 body on a first gen 12 valve 4x4 chassis. Have to thank Steve and the Welderup crew for the inspiration and drive for all of my rat rod builds. Keep it up!

Thanks cobra45cola, I appreciate your comment.

[@anthonygarcia1993]

Thank you sir for saying what you say about Truckers around the world a lot of people don't understand when you're get behind the wheel and especially if you have been driving lot of hours on the road takes a toll on you and then Here Comes a crazy ass guy or girl and they have no idea what's going on when they get in front of you like that thank you for what you do and keep on trucking your buddy out of San Antonio Texas Big Mack attack

[@WelderUpVegas]

Always happy to help the truckers. It can be frustrating for sure. Thanks for watching.

[@repalmore]

I've done things like put a jack under the axle to get my ramps out and even used extra ramps and chain them down to support the back axle. I've had three extra cab long bed trucks on a 53'. Even had two 20' and one 40' containers on that same trailer. I miss trucking.

[@larrybreuer4495]

Your opening comment, about 4wheelers cutting off big rigs, was spot on!(from a “son of a trucker”) l did spend some time behind the wheel when I got old enough to do it legally…but, I had A LOT of hours in the jump seat watching a lot ignorant drivers to some REALLY stupid shit! 👍👍❤️

[@barrychouinard4019]

Reminds me of a taught lesson when you discussed the Miata and a semi truck. "When crossing rail road tracks, just keep in mind, the train never looses".

[@ericborgen7311]

You can't say that his semi truck is not green

[@kellyw9459]

Omg! Wish I could find beautiful men like you. 🇨🇦 needs more men like you. 👍 in love.

[@ronhodgkinson7683]

Dude where the He@# have you been. Love your work and designs. Glad to watch the progress going on.

[@factsoverfeelings1776]

Most of the worlds population has absolutely NO NEED for a semi truck, nor do they have the money to fill up the fuel tanks on one.

[@jacobuscoetzee6689]

What most drivers of light passenger cars don't realise unlike your car a truck even smaller rigs needs distance to come to a stop. That's if there is nothing in your way say like a idiot in little tin can cutting in front of you. Folks its the law of psychics plain and simple

[@2010jshafer]

I was a driver before now I get everything you said there arw some stupid people that dont care about their lives or yours.

[@davidgeiman2012]

Steve Like seeing the Ole Peterbilt. Like to see in a future upcoming video of the two V-12

[@glindabeaven6805]

Thank you for talking about how the general public drives around semi trucks i see it every day driving a semi you wonder how in the hell these people make it home at night. They will pull out in front of you if they have just enough room to get out

[@shawnphillips4473]

I was pulling a loaded cattle trailer and some moron in a Prius got in front of me and put the brakes on as he came to slow down… I should’ve nailed him But I didn’t want to Bruise the meat I was hauling lol

[@ronniewilliz153]

don't you just love it when cars jump in front of you an eat up all ur stopping room. I say the same thing you won't win against a semi lol an they still think they can.

[@TheConkulator]

Be careful with those 2nd get shipping crates or your trailer is going to catch second hand electrical problems

[@spencerpetersen5275]

Man alive!! Up here in Canada that red truck would sell for a shit-ton ah cash as is!! No rust!!

Look for school busses with the 12 valve Cummings engines

[@georgesongenaert376]

Dat zou je moeten doen er zijn er zoveel die het doen waarom zou jij het dan niet doen. Of heb je daar geen zin in om jouw levens stijl te laten zien aan de wereld. Ik denk dat je veel succes zou hebben. Dat was met jouw programma op Discovery ook zo. Dus als ik van jouw was zou het gewoon doen broeder.mijn zegen heb je. Greetings from Belgium and my Georges 🥳🥳

I was at your shop in 2019 , I like to come back , you got one cool shop .

Thanks Dan!

[@markhawkinsmarkhawkins6417]

The first thing to do with the body’s of theses trucks is scrap them , the only thing worth A nickel is the engine and maybe the frames, I’m looking for one also,I have a yard full of trucks and I need three of theses engines, and I would trade my no paper no rust no problem 1960 Chevy pickup 6 cylinder stick shift stepside 6 foot bed runs with some normal TLC and tires, I would trad3 with no money 💰 for 55 Chevy 2or4 door roller car with good bones 🦴 lol thanks BigAl California.

Hi Al, send your info to [e-mail] I don't have any 55 Chevy's at this time but I never know when I will uncover one.

You didn’t even pet the puppy in the video!?! 😂

[@evergreenacres]

I would love to put a 12 valve in my 73 dodge D-100. But it’s got original engine and transmission so I don’t know if it would hurt the value. Because it runs and drives amazing for its age

[@WelderUpVegas]

This is a hard question for me to answer. Are you keeping it or are you planning on selling as a classic. It also depends on the buyer. Wish I could have helped.

Thanks Shane!

[@coreyhardcastle83]

I have respect for Semis, and people drive like assholes when driving in Ohio. I’ve stopped on roads, and even on highways to let semis over and for them to have room to turn, let alone back up. I’ll even throw my hand out the window and tell them they can get over in front of me. Hate the way people treat semi drivers.
