Hey man, what are you hauling... I ran a dump wagon just like that and haul lime

Hey Gerald, great to see the videos and see you end dumpin! Looks like the end dump is quick load and unload,... unlike the sometimes 5 hour waits with the hopper. Keep the great videos rollin!

Gerald don't sell yourself short just because you don't work in an office. You run your own business that's takes brains to do successfully. A guy like me watches your channel and wishes we knew what you do. I'm about your age and wanting to go from construction to trucking. It's quickly becoming obvious even if I can make the transition I'll always be behind the eight ball. Dig what you do sir.

I am genuinely impressed with how much of your own work you do on those old girls. If you ever want to get off the road you'd make it as a 1 man traveling 359, 379 Cat expert mechanic/repair/roadside repair business. All you need is yourself and an air compressor and as much of your shop as you can fit in the back of the service truck. Heck, id call ya if i was sitting on side of road! Good luck, how about totally rwbuild tue 379? Strip it down to frame rails and build it back yourself. Ive done that to 2 trucks (not myself) i hire a shop... and once i get the few rebuild kinks worked out... the trucks just run... tjey just plain run. Its been worth it. Can count on em to make their loads. Respect, and good luck. Id like to see you work on the 3406E! Get some good vid of that bud!

Trying to keep two trucks in shape usually means you don't have ONE truck worth a damn.

Thanks for Sharing. Hate to hear about your engine, comes with the trucking I guess. Wonder if you have a leaking air intake and been sucking up dust? Strange it happens right after you made the switch to dump trailer. Or I guess it just burnt a piston. Been where your at more times than I would like to think about. At least we get to see 359 Action! I added some links to my profile, enjoy TGP

I had a good time hanging out talking trucks. Maybe next time we'll turn some wrenches and get some stuff done.

Why is there such a big gap between fuel tank and step on the 359....that way from factory??

@JacksonClass 6 ай бұрын

The way they were made back then

@wyatt12358 6 ай бұрын

Do you recap your own casings. I would dump about 1 gallon of STP motor for now and dump a little ATF in fuel tank.

@glindabeaven6805 6 ай бұрын

I guess if all of this had happened several weeks ago you could have done all the motor mounts and other repairs then instead of all the work you did before. Aint trucking just full of fun fun fun

@tracywood8676 6 ай бұрын

You should just sell the green truck with all the problems you are having and find you a good Peterbilt day cab with a wet kit on it.

379 reminds me of the woman that takes all of our time and money, but we keep taking her back thinking it's going to work out. Tell her "we need to see other people".
