40 Minutes Of Classic American Cabovers

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

...and a few Scanias thrown in. ;)
This was a rather heavy video to put together. I compiled every single cabover clip I've ever taken throughout my truck spotting career. (2015-2022) Some clips are out of order, and I am sure a few are missing. However, I still hope you all can enjoy this spectacular show of old iron in action!
Enjoy!

    They used to make trucks with sleepers to allow a fella to get a good nights rest. Today its go go go and be monitored by GPS and some pencil pusher, bean counter. Back in the early 80's these machines seemed almost alive, rolling down I-80. Just works of art. Great video Austin!

    Me too, specifically the Mack and Ford from the 80s. Mack cabover is my favorite brah. I know they still on sell on few dealerships, but I don't know what will happen in 10 years. Things can be changed based on laws and parts can be discontinued from industry. The only thing is I know that Mack is a powerful and competitive industry.

    Seeing all of those cabover semis bring back memories & I miss seeing them roll down the highways here in the USA. I like that gray & white Mack one at the beginning. Nowadays the USA is one out of very few countries that have a small number of cabover semis still in service.

    Yeah, there is like from 1 thru 5 percent of cabovers in U.S. In IWOA, Indiana, or New York you maybe see a lot of old trucks. In Illinois is rarely that you a cabover or a 70s generation convoy.

    You need to come to Australia, where B doubles, B tripples & 2 trailer road trains are common. You'll have to go to the outback for triples or longer. Conventionals, slant nose (like SAR Kenworths) & cabovers all mixed. Though Most road trains are American, but Volvos Scania & Merc's on trains too.
