that truck is the reason i became an over the road truck driver,tho i never got to drive a rig like that KW i got to drive some of the sweetest 379s and w900 rigs on the road
I used to watch BJ and the Bear when I was a kid I'm 55 years old I'm glad that you got this truck and trailer man it's beautiful God bless you
Used to see this truck parked at the Lowes parking lot in Ventura ca
What a gorgeous replica! B.J. and the Bear came out when I was a little kid, and my Dad was driving trucks. This paint scheme on a cabover is as close to my heart as the Dukes of Hazard's Charger paint scheme! I'm glad this truck is in the hands of someone who really loves it and takes care of it. Soon there won't be anyone left who remembers the T.V. show, and why cabovers were developed in the first place.
This video shows more details of the entire Kenworth k100 Aerodyne cabin, than seeing the entire bj series. Excellent video

Thanks. There are 350 more tours like this on my channel.
Beautiful rig! Beautiful Bj McKay tribute ride wow! A lot of money in that truck. Love the square exhaust pipes. And the fact he’s Christian! Awesome story. Thanks for sharing😎
Very beautiful KW. I grew up watching BJ & The Bear. You were blessed with an amazing boss & son.
Love the enthusiasm the son has!
Love the BJ replica, just wish they had this stretch in the show. She looks amazing!!! 😊
I used to love the BJ And The Bear show in my childhood!!
That's a great-looking truck, we went to bed last year one night at the Vintage truck reunion in Ashland Ohio and woke up the next morning and he was parked in front of us. It was definitely a surprise and turned into the red and white truck parking area real quick! :-)
What an awesome story and back ground!!!!!! So glad he was able to get this rig, but most of all get such an awesome kid that shares the love of trucking!!!!!!
It has "low rearends" because here in Canada we have lots of BIG mountains! 3.90 gears is very common
I just have to say congratulations I grew up watching BJ and the bear Movin On I. Loved that truck
Awesome Video! 1000 "thank yous" to you Miss Flatbed and a special shout out to Frank from 10-4 mag!

I finally asked Bob the history of his truck and then Miss Flatbed Red is videoing the truck and trailer. He was telling me the story and I wanted everyone to hear it. Bob and Jacob are great people to talk with all the time. I'm glad to have met them both and look forward to seeing them in the future!

Beautiful beautiful ride
Love it! My favorite semi… I will own one someday soon
Beautiful Truck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Awesome!!! 👌
Great video and thank you so much for sharing their story. Hopefully one day when that truck is his he'll still be able to run a few loads in it. If anyone deserves to have been able to own that truck it's him and I'm glad he's using it to spend time with his son.
God Dammit what a beautiful K Whopper omg showcase that beautiful ride 😀😀😀😀
One helluva rig!!!🔥🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Growing up in the uk I've always been obsessed with American trucks so seeing this gorgeous example of such a iconic lorry really is fantastic 😍
Super cool.
BEAUTIFUL TRUCK !! 🙏🙏❤❤
Awesome story and many memories to come with father and son moving freight ! I can tell by his truck prep skills that truck has many years of looking Awesome!!
Bj and the bear truck is cool
Wow that my favorite truck as a kid and still now and I’m 53.
I love how his son says "There's no question about it. I'm gonna drive." That was me when I was a kid. I got my CDL at 19 and 25 years later I thank God everyday for allowing me to get up every morning and do what I love.
I believe I saw this truck at Carlisle Truck Nationals in 2021. Sharp setup and awesome tribute to the BJ and the Bear rig.
I saw this truck 12 years ago, in the S.F. Bay area, at a warehouse: at that time the side panels on the trailer were still white. I chatted with the owner, and asked if I could take a pic of it, and he opened up his briefcase and handed me a pic, which I still have! (And just looked at) Always wondered whatever happened to it: glad to see it's still out there.

I’ve been a long time fan of the B.J. and the Bear tv show and the truck as well when I was a kid growing up. Bob, y’all done a excellent job on your truck looking pretty 🤩 and smooth all over on the truck and trailer. I’d seen your other videos about your truck and was impressed with them. Hopefully I’ll be able to meet y’all somewhere up the road someday. God bless you and your family. Take care.
Hopefully the world gets better. What a kid
I used to own one, but mine was blue. Miss that KW.

To:The Keffer family I'm sorry for the loss of you're boss God bless 🙏
Wow, what a beautiful truck. I used to watch BJ & the Bear when I was a kid.
The best part of this video is the loving relationship between the father and son in this video.

This is so cool!! I loved watching BJ and the Bear. I wish they were available on DVD. Love his story about how he got the truck.

I remember seeing the Ownby cabover Pete around Oxnard California in the early 90s. Sad to hear he passed.

@@MissFlatbedRedjust seeing this story for the first time. As soon as I saw the BJ truck i immediately clicked...lol...only then did i realize it was a Red story...i was like omg...too cool! Glad u did a story on them. Seem like super nice folks and the Kid will get it eventually and keep it nice. Thats awesome! ❤
I liked that show when I was a kid, too bad there is no complete series of the tv series.
You should make a commercial to precede your video. “The following story is brought to you by Our Lord. With Our Lord in your life, nothing is impossible.” A heart warming story if a man and his love for his family, friends and truck!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Awesome video👍👍👍
I can't believe Jacob Keffer had to send me a specific link to a specific time in this video just to prove that he drives a truck.
Amazing Rig 💕🙏
is precious.
Aquellos. 80. Maravillososssss. !!!!!
Nice rig
I was lucky to see and get video of that truck at the 2011 Truckin' For Kids Show in Irwindale, California when it was still with Ownby Trucking. Looking back at it now, my video is very "non-HD" and unimpressive. I'm glad to see that you got really nice coverage of it, and you got a good interview to go along with it to tell the story. I'm happy the story of this truck will continue with a loving and caring owner.
I was in Hollywood Ca on Sunset Blvd several years ago and I saw a truck just like this (BJ & the Bear livery and stretched frame) and a conventional KW900 with a different paint scheme. Both trucks had no trailers in a parking lot for a photo shoot or TV show/movie. Not sure if this was the truck or not, but looks very similar...
cool truck.
Nice Ride Driver.....I see the Truck is from Dunbar Pa I'm in Butler Pa the Birth Place of the Jeep.
I lived in El Paso Texas in 2007, and saw this one or one just like it on I-10. It could have been the original one, I'm not sure, but it was cool to see 😎.
I was at the BJ and Bear debut in Chillicothe
Gorgeous K Whopper!!
to God be the Glory!
Really nice truck…I think I seen you guys at the speedway in Lamont furnace,and I ask if I could take some pictures
