Drove an oddball Western Star with a 410HP C12 in the Army. A lot of them were essentially straight piped. It had an automatic Allison, unfortunately, but it was still a really fun truck to drive. When loaded and going down a grade those jakes really screamed. Occasionally we'd pour a bottle of engine oil into the fuel tanks for a little extra haze out of the pipe - the Army diesel we used was mostly that high test stuff for tanks and when you poured some oil into it, it really chooched. Lol!

@@TheNappyboy2 You can be young to join heavy towing and recovery you need some driving experience and to go learn how to operate, rigging, mechanics, all that shit. I’m only 25 years old man. I got my CDL permit when I was 18 years old. I stayed with a building materials company for a few more years for experience then I left to learn towing and recovery and here I am at 25 with a shit ton of knowledge and could drive a truck like it’s nothing.

I was talking to a crane operator today and he said he started off rigging as well. Basically I didn't know what I actually had to do to get into Wrecker/Recovery, I just know I was getting denied left and right. Lol

Ok I see you in the T800, at least yours I's working, just cracked my head on my isx. Shit sucks when you have more horsepower then stock with stock internals.. Plus wanna see move videos from what you do... keep up the great work brother..

Woah!!! That's no good, upgrading Horsepower, ALWAYS upgrade internals. Hopefully you're getting put in a better backup than the one my company currently has. My truck is currently down too. Still not getting fixed what needs to be but it failed inspection (no surprise to me) so they're getting fixed what needs to be to pass inspection. 🤦‍♂️ Whatever happens after that, I have no idea. I'll definitely start wearing a head cam more like I did in my first video. I just deliver to a lot of places (Job site's, Ship yards, Naval bases) with sensitive material. But where I can I'll definitely try to get more footage on the days I have the GoPro on hand.

@@TheNappyboy2 damn bro, yeah when I got my truck from Richie bro's it was already deleted. So 18 months ago cylinders 3 and 4 let go. So I did an inframe and didn't touch the head. Should've listened to my pops. Well 10 year old truck and 518k miles, I think she did pretty damn good. Yes lesson learned, when she was down first time should've done everything. But damn this shit is alot of 💵💵. Yeah working with my pops hauling logs and saw dust to paper mill in West Point, VA... not the usual money I make but better then nothing.

Excellent work sir. Driving is perfect and the truck sounds awesome but I'd pull over and punch that forklift driver in the head for tailgating

Are you driving a daycab? how did you mount the camera if there's a sleeper there? I have never worked out a good camera angle for truck videos. I've got a sleeper on my truck but I dont know a way to make the camera stay and not be really bumpy. Nice video by the way man, that thing sounds awesome. I used to drive a c12, very capable motor that holds its own against the newer stuff. They sound nice too, even with the factory style stacks they like to sing.
