Top-Secret Freightliner Truck Factory Producing Most Reliable US Long-Haul Semi Trucks

[@CarManufacturing]

🚨Which truck manufacturer do you think is the most reliable and which one has a high failure rate?

[@CarlosAlberto-ii1li]

Top secret and you put out a video of it, back to caption school.

[@Murdock068]

I would say Mack, Kenworth and Peterbuilt.

[@janamaro5894]

Kenworth, they're still making T800 and W900 they're both reliable legendary trucks.

[@CarManufacturing]

@@Murdock068 So you think Mack is the most reliable?

[@CarManufacturing]

@@janamaro5894 Thanks a lot for your feedback :)

[@larrybrown7273]

I'am not Trucker but been around them 54yrs The lacks freight liner are my two favorite

[@Kenneth-rh1bt]

I like them all they bring us things that sustain us from around America. So we need them all

[@CarManufacturing]

You're right - I agree. Thanks a lot for the comment

[@mojorisin7371]

Been a class A CDL driver for 25 years and for me Freightliner was typically the most reliable and comfortable. Of course depends on what you're using your rig for. For instance Mack does a great job with Dump trucks and trash hauling trucks, Volvo is good at long haul as is Peterbilt and Kenworth, International are best as box trucks, Western Star are great heavy haulers and tow trucks. But for my money I'm getting a Freightliner for almost any over the road hauling. 🤙🏼♥️

[@pauldionne1665]

They are just like cars. Some have been driven HARD and some have been driven as intended. All have some kind of RECALL! Those trucks from the Czech Republic were just so cool. I wonder how well they would do as Forest fire trucks. They seem to go over any terrain with major pay load. Wow cool truck. I enjoyed this.

[@RealJohnWayne]

What was supposed to be "Top Secret" about the Freightliner Factory (s) where they give public tours most days?

[@CarManufacturing]

So it's not a secret anymore... I've already declassified it :) Live tours are only seen by a few hundred or thousands of visitors... this video can be seen by anyone around the world

[@TheAlabamaWildman]

My Father was an OTR Driver all of my life & Most of His. Lost Him in '10... But He Mostly drove Macks & Freightliners. So, that's where my heart goes... Not Kickin' the others! Just Like These Better!!

[@CarManufacturing]

I prefer to watch Peterbilt trucking channels. Starting w/ Allie Knight (now retired) & PePes Towing & Recovery. Why: Peterbilt handles the Big Tasks easily & fun to watch

My favorite trucks are Peterbilt, Kenworth, Western Star, and Volvo. The best trucks I have driven are the Peterbilt 379, Kenworth W900 and T600.

[@Adrian_Nel]

Yeah, the factory that produces reliable Freightliners is top secret. But the factories that produce Freightliners that break down constantly are less secret.

[@coolmagoo52]

Yea right it’s the same damn plant.

[@hueyman624]

I have an 06 Freightliner Columbia built here. Its a great truck with original everything 666666, miles. The dealer rarely has to order parts and its a nice truck with a good ride. Its paid for and a lot of the people driving Peterbilt and Kenworth are still making payments.

[@raywilson800]

Cool❤

[@edgilhayter1237]

My favourite truck is Peterbuilt ,Volvo, Kenworth, freightliner.

[@CarManufacturing]

In this order?

[@rdththth]

13:11 _"Every Mack destined for the US and Canada is manufactured and assembled in America at this specific factory."_ Mack has final assembly plants at Macungie, Pennsylvania (near Allentown), and Glenvar, Virginia (near Salem).

I prefer the Kenworth Truck As My Father used to Drive A Kenworth Truck....

[@tarheelpatch3386]

Go to Cleveland NC and Mt Holly where can see Daimler ( Freightliner) trucks of all types being built in the secret plants. Went to the secret MtHolly plant whe they were building our new fire truck.

[@CarManufacturing]

@@jeffreycairns767 And which truck do you think is the best?

[@jeffreycairns767]

@@CarManufacturing Honestly, it depends on exactly what you're looking for. Personally, I've loved my Western Star 4900EX, 2016 Freightliner Cascadia, and Mack Pinnacle. The newer trucks have either a fancy looking dashboard (Peterbilt, KW) or a plain one (Freightliner, Volvo). I'd have to say that for comfort and looks, Western Star 4900EX. For fuel economy and aerodynamics, Freightliner or Volvo. The Peterbilt 579 would win if the drivers seat wasn't so uncomfortable. I've driven a 2017 & 2023 389 and a 2022 579, and the seats were all the same. They fell like you're leaning towards the center, towards the passengers seat, and thees no way of fixing them except by buying a new, different kind, but not for $2,000+

[@semiretired6033]

Peterbilt, Kenworth, Western Star, Freightliner, Volvo, Mack. In that order.

[@clintonmakela5511]

Mack is my favorite

[@CarManufacturing]

I think they definitely have the best logo :)

[@EdmondBouchard-sy3ml]

Kenworth, But the Tatra trucks are a beast with those axels.

9:16 _"A Mack truck with a gold plated or chrome bulldog indicates that the truck was made with a Maxidyne engine."_ Incorrect. The gold bulldog symbolizes all of the major driveline components; engine, transmission, and drive axles, were made by Mack. A chrome bulldog indicates one or more of the major driveline components came from another vendor. Also, trucks ordered by United Parcel Service have the MACK name omitted from the grille, and have a tubular aluminum pull handle instead of a bulldog on the hood.

[@stephenwilliams4067]

Freightliner Cascadia are assembled in Saltillo Mexico. Just watch how many Cascadia go north interstate 35 from Laredo Texas 😮

[@bandiprasad6979]

It will still be a top secret because only those who manufacture and use this semi trucks only know about them

The suspension on the tatra looks odd to me it would be kool to know just how it works providing comfort and stability.

@@CarManufacturing Volvo was one of the best manufactured trucks at one time. Around the time they came out with the newer design, that's when they started to slip. As did Detroit. Cummins has improved on their products.

Scania makes these US brands look pitiful, it’s so far advanced that any truck driver who gets to drive the Scania 660s -770S V8 engines will pine for them if they go back on these 1990 US models…In Europe the say there are two types of trucker , those that drive Scanias and the rest who want to drive Scania…I know I drove them from 1974 until I retired in 2020, I only bought them with the V8 engine as they will barnstorm a mountain with their 3700 Nm of torque …

They dont weld frames. I work on trucks every day and they have stickers that say dont weld frames. They are bolted. They dont import Tatra trucks into USA or even north America. Paccar engines are not popular because they dont hold up

Top secret ? Not anymore... You just mentioned three different manufacturing locations. Most reliable ? Seriously ? Freightliners have always been junk. There's a reason why they are so much cheaper than Kenworth and Peterbilt. Freightliners start rattling and falling apart after about 100,00 miles, and that's if it's a good one.
