That is a really sweet truck. I actually stopped my car last week in town to watch a cabover go by. It's great to see those old classics still working. Thanks for sharing the ride. Stay safe and God bless.

O-H-I-O Porter greetings.🇺🇸 That’s the right response when you see a cabover! I drove about 3 miles, flipped around & went back to the truck stop to catch up with a K100. I had my boys with me & we had a ball getting it on video. Cabovers Rule!Blessings.🥰🤩✌️

[@chrishelms1967]

Very cool...... reminds me of the hey days of 70s

[@smokinacamel]

Wow, im honored to have you "ride along". You made this ol truck look pretty good, I must say. Thank you. Lets do it again sometime. 👍

[@davemachoukas6175]

Thank you! sir! I enjoyed hearing your truck. She's buetiful!

[@PikaChu-fy5pt]

Nice looking rig. Sounds like a truck. Not like these fiberglass and aluminum things they call trucks nowadays. Where did you guys go? It looked familiar. Company I'm with pulls reefers too. Hung out at Holstein a few nights over the years. Nice stop.

[@keepontruckinoutlawlife1248]

Sweet rig driv,ah love it. Please start a KZbin channel

[@jamesupton143]

Kurt you gave that cabover lots and lots of love. You could start doing videos like this for all different types of trucks. You did an awesome job with the video segments. The different views were great. Thanks Kurt for what you do. Remember it was because of Opie I started following you. God bless and be safe.

[@dirtyduck1947]

fsc trucking would love this just like his peterbilt

[@Connie1Fan]

Shes a beauty.. 🥰 My first truck ride ever was in 1975, it was a 1973 cabover PETERBILT, hauling a milk tanker for IDFA, my husband worked for them, hauling from Florida to Wisconsin, I was 18, he was 20, what an experience, it got me hooked on trucking, I started driving trucks in 1979, still doing it today, but never driven a cabover. That was cool 😎

[@joeprocopio494]

Nice way to go connie,be safe I retired after 43 yrs!!

[@randyeddington4405]

Nothing like them ole school trucks nothing but things of beauty and definitely a work horse..... Keep on keepen on!!!

[@timothypritchard5391]

got to love the sound of that truck, God bless our drivers

[@LT.X380]

Great video. I love the old cabovers I drove a White Freightliner in the early 70s. Stay safe my friend. God bless you all. 🙏🙏🙏

[@harryd9782]

I love small town Iowa and Nebraska. Lived in Wahoo, NE for years and I miss it.

[@gord2358]

The first Big Rig I drove was an International cab-over with no sleeper. We called it a "half-shack". It was ideally suited for the two flat deck trailers we used because it kept the weight down to 110,000 lb. GVW which was the legal limit when hauling three steel coils.

[@denisryle6410]

I drove a 362 Pete COE double bunk 350 Cummins 13 speed 390 rear ends for a year in the late 70’s was good memories. Thanks for bringing them back. Enjoyed the video thanks again ✌️

[@danielgarver2660]

"A cabover Pete with a reefer on," song "Convoy" by C.W. McCall, 1975. When I was driving a cabover White Road Commander as an O.O. leased to North American Van Lines Electronics Exhibits fleet. Hauled all over the U.S. and a little in Canada.

[@johnmcclain7072]

Started my driving career at NAVL. Drove an Astro for an OO on the freight side in 85. Ran NJ to SoCal and back.

[@davidschmidt5557]

Hey Daniel, speaking of C. W. McCall did you catch Kurt's video titled "Learn it now before you have to later". At 6:36 Kurt went through Pisgah. IA and he pointed out the cafe. Thats where C. W. wrote the song "Old Home Filler-Up An' Keep On A-Truckin' Cafe. Takes us way back.

[@sandyg9228]

Same lyrics came to my mind

[@johnmcclain7072]

Just a beautiful Pete. Drove one for Fitzsimmons out of Minnesota if anyone remembers them. Loved that truck. Shannon and Kurt truck it safe 😎

[@psg6314]

Great video and great cabover I used to drive one 85 to 91 it was the best truck in the fleet well kept we hauled trash trailer the only draw back no power steering and a 8v71 Detroit and 10 speed God bless from GA and stay safe from GA

[@DDD-us6uu]

Very nice cabover, they do ride better stretched, take a long ladder for Opie, but he might like sitting on the dog house, he could see good, and yes you are first on the scene of an accident, good job Kurt.

[@sandyg9228]

That is one bad Pete, really neet to see it working

[@majorpayne4098]

Not everyday you get to enjoy that classic ride. Gorgeous!!!

[@eastonA11]

Working trucks IS where its at! Couldn't look any better, regardless of how many shiny new parts you put on it. That's the truck in its raw beautiful form.

[@garykocker5785]

Got my start riding with my father in a GMC Astro! I only got to ride in it and move it back and forth to load grain! But I got to drive a 1978 K100 Kenworth he drove so any time a cabover is seen you got my attention. Cabovers are cool.

[@jandcco]

I love it True old school trucking , even got the ______-knob so cool

[@georgewilson1184]

You should do a video & team run with Steve Fezchek of Freedom Wisconsin he has a 1984 Peterbilt 362 COE he calls Orwell from the book George Orwells 1984 Steve is a heavy haul dropdeck operator

[@Supertrucker1962]

I drove for JMI Batesville Ark circa 1986 and when I first started it was a single bunk Pete cabover. After awhile they gave me a double bunk Pete and was joking to myself all the fun I would have in there with all the commercial beavers in the truckstops. 10-4.

[@jordangraff2254]

Mr. "Crossed Bones" Shannon has a damn sweet Cabby! Love those 362's! Especially with an N14 Celect Plus Cummins 😎. Another great video Kurt, sure I came for the W9 originally way back on episode 3 or 5 a few years back now, but I honestly stay for you now... Love how much your videos have improved over time! Great job Kurt, be damned proud of yourself eh

[@maxschimminger1553]

That was a great ride along. Nothing better than a cab over. It's going to be hard to beet this one. Great channel

[@CrampedGrampy]

1972 I was driving a Kenworth cabover with a Super 250 Cummins and a ten speed (after a short time driving it It had a Super Something else name!). About a year later with a different employer a Mack cabover with a 13-speed behine a 325 Cat. I really liked that one. As you know changes took me elsewhere driving an International, can't remember the model (9600?) 350 Cummins and a 13 speed. That one rode nearly as good as the Mack. Thanks for the video and the memoies. Geeze, that was 50 years ago.

[@davecramer9725]

That cab over was sweet drove one from 1980 to 1996 owned my own from 85 to 96 owned a 78 kw k100 and an 85 international

[@michaelmclachlan4278]

I sold Pete's for years...fun fact 362 in its day was one of the most aerodynamic trucks on the road. One piece glass 3 wipers loved loved the 362.

[@grumpy4316]

I have big soft spot in my heart for cabovers. Especially stock cabovers. Shannon's is clean!

[@RozD1]

The cabover style is all we have here in the UK but we have more space above usually 6feet up so it's interesting to see the diffeerent variation. Are you enjoying being a passenger princess 😆 I hope you are enjoying your home time, the home videos are nice to watch as much as the trucking ones have a fab week to you and all the family

[@huskersue5123]

I was noticing how high up the cab is when cars were traveling by the opposite direction. Thanks for the video, Kurt.

[@chiefvilla3167]

Oh one more thing. That's one cool looking Pete. There was another truck in your next to us call rabinda. Trucks the same color except for they had a black pinstripe. They all music instruments for musicians all the big bands. Most of their drugs for cabovers. Keep the rubber side down and the shiny side up.😎.

[@Grumpy777]

Heck Yeah Man.... Awesome 👌 👍 Video... Way To Coool Hero '.. Cabovers are awesome

[@jonathanbecker3806]

Not knocking the cat but any video with an n14 is a winner to me. Cabover is a bonus too. Thank you for sharing.

[@fizixx]

Nice guy, no-nonsense, and a beautiful COE. It sure looks like it's in top shape.

Hi Kurt, awesome video!! Love witnessing the vintage ol' iron still hammering down the gears and hitting the pavement. She's a real gem! Thanks Kurt and Shannon for takin' us viewers along for the ride! Have a great day, keep on truckin'!

[@Roaddawg68]

These trucks are beautiful, reminds me of my childhood , thry should be restored and appreciated so everyone can enjoy them.

I got my calendar today 😎 Great job on the photos 👍🏽 Thanks Uber Dad

[@davemachoukas6175]

Damm nice cab over. Thank you for sharing. Sounds great!

[@christopherkelley78]

Hey brother, I’ve always love those old trucks like that but crack me if I’m wrong but some of them in the 70s and 80s had stretch the sleeper out where it was still tight but it had a bigger mattress. God bless you man.

[@johnsimmons3643]

I just talked to opie about the c.o.e. and he said "he'll no" & he said you was to old to pick him up and put him in the truck 🤣

[@MAX999MAX]

Amazing as always. God bless you all

[@Cap6302]

For 5+ years I drove a '96 362 with 36" sleeper and recessed exhaust. It's still in use in CA. I loved that driving it and have taken it thru most states west of the Miss. I like the two piece windshield better that one piece. This one is a beauty.

[@stevenrobinson2381]

Good 'ol Petercar cabinover-I called it a 352 but do see it's a 362-one of the last of 'em. One of them 'ol girls is up here in far North Idaho-even longer wheelbase-enough room for a drop axle-which it has ! Don't get the super long wheelbase-out West here-yes-but ya need 2 counties to turn the dang thing ! Started my driving in a '86 9670 Cornbinder in 1994. Short wheelbase cabinovers made ya look real good getting into & out of real tight spots-but you were also 1st. at the scene of an accident. And we won't even mention the ride.

[@jasonbrace3229]

My first truck was international cab over. It was great experience an miss having to drive one.

[@skippyjones4195]

Hey Kurt that was a Beautiful Truck…. Ya the hat love it ❤️👍✌️💪🏻

[@melanierandolph6953]

So glad you got to go with crossbones. You looked like you were really having a good time.

[@danieldempsey9321]

Watched your video and a lot of memories came back. I drove a 70's Astro GMC cab over for North American Van Lines for a short time but it was great. Not as nice as a Pete is, but still fun.That truck looks great and you did a super job. By the way your camping videos are also great.Be safe and enjoy.

[@rolfsinkgraven]

A very nice and big cab-over wow.

[@larryfisher5796]

I'm an old school from WAY BACK there is nothing nothing like the old school trucks they sound different .

[@bodieb1233]

They are beautiful trucks. A by gone era I guess. I'm 75 y/o and they remind me of my love affair with the Big Rigs. I can't thank you enough for this video. Maybe it's a sign of a better year with the OLD ways and values. I don't know but thanks. I've got to watch the video again. Happy New Year !

[@geraldoreynoso2480]

The cab over is really cool 😎 👌

[@bobpaulino4714]

Great looking Peterbilt. They have been my favorite since I was a kid. My mom and dad gave me a framed picture of a 379 with a stainless corrugated trailer, titled 'California Hauler'. It's hung on my wall ever since. My first ride was in an Astro 95 with a chemical tanker. Neighbor of my grandparents drove for Detrex Chemical out of Ashtabula. Lee was a Vietnam combat vet- and a surrogate dad when I was visiting my grandparents. Several other friends took up driving. I travelled, but in a service truck doing industrial and institutional service. Lots of road time. Didn't care much for the air tubes through the berth. Thought it funny that many of the KW K100's paint schemes had the angled notch at the back of the sleeper to make them look like a Pete from the side. Thanks for the video. Blessings --

[@axelguzman8408]

I love that truck i use to drive a 1984 international i miss that truck

[@adco]

Cool tool, great times!

[@happyhighway106]

#175 Trucks like this can make the tight turns in Docks that have limited space, such as The University of Michigan Hospital Receiving Dock #5. We had one Driver that owned a cab over and handled that rig like a motorcycle. He was in and out in a jiffy!

[@drock7601]

You need to do you bud! We are just along for the ride my friend.

[@davidalexander5826]

Love the old cabovers first one I was in a K100e it was nice truck. Shame you don't see them must anymore but the ones you do they have put some time & money in them. Thanks for another great video

[@meganostra6633]

Us iowa boys know trucks for damn sure. Nice ride! E wn watching through your camera I could feel the way them old cabovers ride, lol sitting right up over that steer axle. Miss them days believe it or not. Great vid man!!

[@williambillwaynerobertson930]

Love them Cabovers I always wanted one until a buddy was at a stop light and a large car ran a red light hit him in the left front wheel and ripped the cab apart on a ol Astro, I'll still love them but not going to drive one, maybe have a show truck is all. That's one sharp Pete and the imagination runs wild of chrome and things ta do.👍🇺🇸🤙

[@richardeckert6130]

That is a beautiful truck great video

[@chriswarf5805]

I see he's getting all your freight lol

[@jda72]

My first cabover was a 74 Mack this one was rare had a 335 Cummins 13 spd. Reyco suspension it would run with the big dogs.Also had a 72 IH transtar 290 cummins 13 spd it had PS and a/c plus several others all good trucks but all rode rough and a chore raising the cab.

[@dannystidham7211]

Great video, love those old cabovers!

[@johnmcdowell9059]

great video you can't beat a cabover that was a sweet pete i love cabovers i've got a 1979 white western star cabover in the process of being restored cabovers are making a slow comeback and i hope they make a full recovery in the trucking industry

[@dodge33445]

I didnt get a chance to look at the truck I got so sidetracked from that BAD to the BONE mullet!

[@travisstoneking4049]

Only thing bad about a cabover is your the first one on scene when it comes to a collisions lol. Me and my father redone a 86 k100 was in the 2012 Louisville truck show wish we would or kept the old girl. It was called the “color of money”✌🏼❤️

[@waynehammerton5698]

That was absolutely awesome Kurt and definitely a beautiful truck that Shannon has there buddy

[@fearless7424]

I always liked cab overs.✌🏽

[@amish733]

Yes! Cabover for the win! Now that I have a hooded truck, people think I will stop driving my K100. I still prefer to drive/work my old cabover.

[@smokinacamel]

Love a K100 ❤️

[@wilburroth5150]

Btw, I loved that cab over! You should check out FSC trucking and his cab over.😁

[@smokinacamel]

I do follow him too, ive never pulled a lowboy, and I dig all the ways he loads, and secures such a variety of equipment. Plus he put that tripac on his. Was interesting to see how they did that. Thanks 👍

[@jerryhubbard4461]

The first truck I ever drove was a Tri-Star cab over with a Cummings 250. That thing struggles to keep 65 mph with 15, 000 pounds. lol Ten speed but it got the job done. Sitting over the wheels is one rough ride. At least it was in the International. lol

[@cooper5882]

I like the truck .. My first truck was a KW Cabover with a high rise .

[@terryanderson4366]

I drove almost identical truck for 7 years. The no hood gives fitting rig through an area instead of using hood as marking position on roadway. My 78 Pete had nylon tires on the steering and I could feel the icy road far better than radial steel belt. Air assist leaked badly so had it blocked off. Manual steer was not easy in tight places but gave me superior feel of road. Passenger seat was not air ride so I hope Kurt had one. Dog house carpet took a beating and door stop ripped off. Had to be careful not to let wind take it off. Always dry hand rail before getting out because it is a long way to the ground.

[@keepupwithspeedy]

I rode in a cabover once in my life. it was the only time i got to ride in a semi. Just a short run to Vassor and back. It was a rough ride but fun.

[@fredcasteel8265]

I like the suicide knob!

[@joshuasallee7509]

Shannon- no matter as you may think it's not a show truck or nice as you think it's needs to be- as long as your comfortable n safe n legal, that is all that matters. You have nice truck that you can afford to work on and reliable. Regardless Shiney chrome n looks is NOT what makes you money.
