He turns 56 this year and has 37 years behind the wheel. He owns his own company with 4 trucks (all rigid chassis with hooks to change gravel beds, machine beds or asphalt tubs) and 3 trailers for them. A 2018 Scania R580, a 2020 Scania R650 a 2020 Scania R660 and a 2012 Scania R490. The last truck is the only remaining truck from his old fleet of 6 trucks (2x 6-series R580, 3x 6-series R730 and the R490)

Wow, that's impressive.

A beautiful Peterbilt! Pure Peterbilt Class & Prestige at it's finest! Thanks for sharing this with us! Safe travels!!

I drove a 367 with similar colors, the fenders were a metallic brown. It was originally a set up as a slam bam transfer truck, but my boss made it a truck trailer to haul roofing tile. It was a shorter wheel base than most truck trailers and had no air ride, so it was very choppy, but it was a good little truck for driving in housing tracts and delivering cement roofing tile to new and remodeled homes. That is a beautiful truck you have, I never got to drive a 389, drove a couple 367 and a 359, but no Cadillacs….nice truck, glad you can enjoy it.

Love the conventional layout, timeless classic. A real looker, great choice, enjoy!!

Congrats there young man, nice rig. It takes some guts to jump out there & buy a truck like that. Especially in today's world. Back in my years it was hard as hell to get a bank to loan you the money. Good luck.

Thank you for showing that hard work will get you where you want to be!

Looks great man, congrats!

Congrats brother, much success to you! I've always wondered why trucks which are so expensive allow such easy access to the engine, while other vehicles open the hood from inside. I never understood that!

Congratulations! Enjoy your new truck!!

I was a company driver doing flat deck and boy I'm so much happier now that I bought my own truck and do long haul ltl dry van, nice rig man

Congratulations young man. May God bless you and keep you safe and financially 🙏 productive.

Beautiful truck. Love the colors

I've had 2 Pete's in my 30yrs... 83 359 and a 07 379....that 07 I got brand new...My favorite truck in all of my driving years.... Congrats young man!!

Congrats 🎊 God bless your truck and family it’s beautiful

Beautiful. Be safe my friend. God bless you.

Hey man, good luck and stay safe out there. I run locally under my own authority and haul steel. I'm 31. Went into ownership without any previous CDL A experience, however I had about 15 years of logistics background. Lots of money to be had, just remember that the bank don't mess around and we are dependent on our own health and drive to get that money in. My .02 that you didn't need to hear. I love my paid off 2015, couldn't sell me a new truck at even 0% interest. Keep it shiny side up driver.

Love it, wishing you many safe and profitable miles.

Good for you my man! 👍. That is one sharp semi. Can't go wrong with a Peterbilt, should last a very long time. Much respect.

I have driven 379's many times ....the company I currently work for just purchased 6 brand new 2022 389's ....the first just arrived today . My 389 will arrive in about 6 to 8 weeks from now .

I ran a 1992 with a 3406C for 3 years to get me going . It was a beautiful old truck and ran me good . That said it had its wants and needs as all older trucks will . Ordered my 21’ last fall before the covid had its grips on truck sales . Took delivery of it in Feb, with the lack of down time and the just GO EVERY DAY reliability so far . The 21’ is on pace to make me and extra 50k gross this year … makes those payments look a lot easier with that kind of results !

@mikeshultz1007

2 жыл бұрын

@@nicksmith7552 There is a couple reasons as to why it affects value. One reason is that larger fleets buy the vast majority of paccar powered trucks and with all of the problems with newer trucks so they are dumping them with around 400,000 miles on them, 10-15 years ago large fleets would dump them with just under a million miles on them. So there is a constant supply of trucks less then 3 years old on the second hand market. Large fleets only buy new trucks so the only people who are going to buy those used trucks are owner operators or very small fleets. Since they make the paccar engines and transmissions they do not have to source them from cummins which is more expensive. They can also sell paccar powered trucks cheaper due to future revenue from parts and services on those engines. Owner operators chose trucks for different reasons then fleets. With large fleets they only care about 3 things and those are lowest possible purchases price, lowest fuel consumption and warranty since they are going to get rid of them not long after the 3 year 300,000 mile warranty is over. Since there are fewer cummins powered trucks they command a higher price and owner operators and small fleets are going to keep them as long as they still make money.

Congratulations ! Very smart decision..... buying a truck with a warranty. Double your payments and save interest.... When you get the truck payed off, stop paying the insurance companies and pay yourself-how, only insure the truck for liability and save the money in a savings account what you would have paid for full coverage.... For a price the insurance companies are willing to take a risk, why aren’t you willing to take the same risk.

Daaammmmnnn. All the bells and whistles. Enjoy it man. The only thing I wish you would have added to the video that you can do in another video is WHY you chose that truck over a volvo or cascadia or kenworth or international? Your situation may not match ours but the process of how you chose it can be insightful in helping others to pick the best truck for them. Trucks are built for specific kinds of hauling, so adding what you plan on hauling that matches the 280 would be good for new drivers/viewers to learn too. I bet that thing is gonna be smooth as silk cruising down the road with the long wheelbase and extra power.
