Daddy built Ford semis in Louisville from 69-80. They then transferred him to little trucks over on Fern Valley Rd. He worked for Ford from 1969-2006. RIP, Dad

Agreed

I had an 1984 Ford LTL 9000 Cummins 300 Big Cam 4 9sp..Loved that truck.. Then had a 1988 Ford LTLA 9000 same package. Loved the aero package..Both trucks rode like a dream..Both were 250" WB with 46" sit in sleeper...

Hey @greenhornet can you tell me a little more about your experience with them I'm about to buy one this week and I need more. Info.

I was lucky to drive a 1986 LTL 9000 Peterbilt Blue was the color after a repaint, she had a 400 Cummins and a 15 direct Fuller transmission with a Holland 5th wheel I would give anything to have that truck back Love those LTL's one of the best looking trucks out there, this truck the Grand Champion is just outstanding, love the stretch frame.

Fords are absolutely the BEST! Love all of them!

These Fords were great driving trucks the Aeromax and Louisville both fine trucks. Nice cab space, Sterling were good too.

Had an LTL 89 ' 3406B 13 spd from new. Drove it nearly every day. Still one of the best trucks i had. The guy that bought it loves it. Still pulls like a train and rides nice. This is an amazing looking truck. Well done. 👍😎🤘

Billy is a good friend I live a mile away from him

Thats one cool looking ford!!!! Best truck ever in my opinion

That is a sexy beast, love them old ford tractors wish they still built them.

Beautiful truck. The Ford LTL 9000 was the best looking truck on the road. It had styling and character and still looks better than trucks on the road today.

Had a 1986 LTL by far most comfortable truck I ever drove.

Wow!!! That truly is a beautiful truck....

it is one gorgeous rig !

Very nice example looks amazing

Beautiful truck

thanks for sharing your video.beautiful truck

awesome! I drove several of those trucks, best ones Ford built,

Charles Harris they’ve definitely got character. Back in 2005 I had the choice between one of the early aero Petes and an older Ford. I preferred the Ford by a LONG shot. Of course, the 379/389 Petes are another story.

Great looking truck!

Love that ltl always wanted to build one! Quite large drivah

I am a Ford man, and i always loved the Ford ltl 9000's.

Cat 3406B Mechanical, great powerhouse.

How can you be a ford man and NOT like the ltl 9000's???? Im Not a ford man at all, and I absolutely LOVE the ltl 9000's, especially done up tough but simple like this one. They were a great truck! They were a little heavy, but rugid. And as I said im not a ford man at all, but when you really break it down an look at it, the only thing made by ford on the truck is the body, and maybe some parts on the frame and suspention. Everything else is made by all the other same manufactures that peterbilt, freightliner, international, westernstar marmon whites. The LTL 9000s where sharp. I had an 87 that was silver an dressed up some, and was probably the meanest truck rollin on pavment on the east coast when I had it.

Absolutely ltl 9000 is a mean machine..I was just gifted a 87 LTL 9000...If you or anyone has any OG parts I'm interested

School bus driver here. When Freightliner/Daimler bought out Ford trucks and rebadged it the Sterling, they might still be around had they added the LTL back into the lineup. It's not always about aerodynamics and who can cut through the wind better.

Seriously cant tell you how much I love this truck. Its a shame there arent many on the road anymore and most of the time when you do see one its been beat to hell an back as a log truck or dump truck.

Best looking truck ever built

I learned in a FORD AEROMAX 9000 sleeper to get my CDL. The other was a FREIGHTLINER CABOVER. It's a shame I didn't keep track of where they might have went. I enjoyed the both of them.

Ford had some Awesome Trucks

Es un camión 🚛 realmente precioso, hermoso por donde se mire en un monumento a la belleza este camión LTL 9000 de NORT AMÉRICA 🇺🇸 saludos cordiales desde Chile 🇨🇱

My favorite Ford.

VERY VERY SWEET !!!!

Fantastic looking truck I thought that they was the best truck on the road in there day see some around sometimes and still look good

The LTL 9000 was an awesome truck. Wish i could find one restored & chromed out w/ a large cat in it. Now that's real eye candy. Wish i could drive one just one more time for nostalgia sake. Miss that truck.

Screw my F350! Now this is a Ford!

Beautiful.

This truck is amazing!

Parabéns pelo ótimo cuidado com este clássico da Ford!

Beautiful!!!

nice, thanks 4 sharing

Beautiful nice rig

Sylvester Stallone would be proud these 80s trucks are still being sought after

The truck in over the top was a 1968 auto car with a home made sleeper

I love ford ltl9000 but you put on here a ford aeromax but that is not the aeromax ltl it is the normal big hood ltl. the aeromax is a slope nose with the set back front axil. trust me I drove a aeromax ltl9000 pulling dump trailer and they don't look as good as the big hood ltl but I just wanted to clear that up it is just a regular big hood ltl9000

sure nicer than my 1950 f 8 leased to Kaplan out of clevland

Would love to own that truck

Is it still running? Would love to see a follow up and hear how & what it's doing now. Also driving some where interesting with inside and outside video like "Rolling CB" does.

Of course it's still running . They say there is no such thing as a dumb question but I think this takes the cake.

That is one SEXY truck!!! Any idea what engine/transmission is in it? I would've loved to seen a video of it running and hooked to the trailer it works with!

Well if you know the guys that own it, I'd sure love the chance to buy it if it ever comes up for sale!!!

Where can I find a video of this thing running?

Just loved this posting I helped build these trucks at KTP until they gave up the real trucks

WOW

Is amaicing

I am a Ford man, and I have never liked the LTL 9000's. But I do love vintage and you have done an awesome job on this old girl. She looks great! What kind of power plant is under the hood?

😊👍👍👍

shame ford got out of the semi truck market.

Get more weight on the steering, you need to lengthen the frame? WRONG.

Look at where the fifth wheel is compared to a normal semi truck...its more towards the front drive axle.

peron el portable

Ford was always a leader in styling.All the trucks today look the same ( boring!)

Hate the thing's sorry
