#onthehunt #littlebylittle359 #twinstickgarage
This week I’m taking a break from truck building to go and check out the local auction yard. This is the annual fall sale and there are hundreds of semi trucks for sale. Found a bunch of trucks I’d love to add to the collection but I’m running out of room. Even spotted a Smokey and the Bandit clone that sold for a lot more than I was expecting…
Hope you enjoy the video and thanks for all the comments, suggestions, and support!
Keep in mind, I know a little about a lot but not an expert in anything … just doing the best I can, learning as I go ... I do all my own stunts
Check out my other videos to see the progress of the Smokey and the Bandit Kenworth, Trailer and TransAm projects, the ongoing Peterbilt 359 restoration and the #IronDuke Kenworth K100 cabover I’m building up like the one used in the 70’s trucking movie High Ballin’ with Jerry Reed and Peter Fonda.

I laugh at how people try to roll miles back on vehicles without taking into consideration all of the little subtle signs of the true mileage.

@carlcarlamos9055 8 ай бұрын

A simple exercise is take a calculator or pencil and paper and divide the claimed miles by how many years old the truck is. It’s amazing how often you find yourself wondering “how did they pay for the truck?”. Trucking is part driving, and part business, so you better be able to do both if you don’t want to get skinned. Take care.

If I remember correctly he sold the truck for around $15,000 and he purchased it for $4500 and he didn't do anything but switch the title to true mileage unknown.

Mark, the 8 speed in that old Pacific is an 8LL. The blue splitter button on the side puts it into a low, low, deep reduction range. A lot of dump trucks here in the states have those transmissions in them. Makes it easier when hauling a heavy load off road. Helps with traction control so that you don't tear your rears up.

Those Freightliner classic XL's remind me of my assigned truck back in 2004-2005, a yellow classic tractor with a big Dome top sleeper practically an apartment room for me at 5 foot 6. It had a sweet and powerful series 60 Detroit that made 80 feel like 60 miles an hour. I almost bought the truck before fuel went up back then to $3 a gallon. I can't count how many times I knocked my hip against the corner of the very helpful wrap around dashboard that can be very painful trying to move around in the cab.

First again! Automatic transmissions in heavy trucks, same as what happened with cars and pickup trucks, are becoming far more common. Yesterday I saw a dump truck set up for over-weight hauling, it had an automatic transmission.

@carlcarlamos9055 8 ай бұрын

Automatics have had a significant presence in prime movers and crane carriers and other very heavy vehicles since the sixties and seventies. This is for control and to free up the drivers attention, because there are many more focal points. Look at Morgan’s post at all the gear choices he had with his rig. You don’t learn to do that in one day. Opportunities to learn are fewer and far between these days, often with an up front cost in dollars and of poorer quality learning. The days of going to school in someone’s place a couple days, and coming away with an education are long gone. Take care.

That T279 with the Schwabe conversion had the 5th wheel camper setup so it can move with the camper and not crack the frame. Another issue with the electric trucks will be fires. The EV car fires have destroyed two car ferries and a few parking garages one with 1600 cars destroyed from a Range Rover hybrid bursting in flames. It is not covered in the news but even the newest tech batteries will go into thermal run away and they create oxygen as they burn so it is hard to put them out. The fumes that come off them are poisonous,. There needs to be better training for drivers if the car starts on fire and for the fire brigade that need to put out the fire. A semi EV will have a much larger battery than a car so it will be a massive fire when they go up.

@DarthPaddius 8 ай бұрын

Hey Mark, just thinking about what you said about the electric trucks and in this old dog's opinion, we are a far ways to go yet before we are ready to go electric. Hybrid maybe, but not fully electric.. I'm from New Zealand and we have several fully electric trucks over here already, but they are mostly for show and mostly only work around towns, nothing really for long haul, especially with our mountainous roads! We had one running for fonterra as a milk tanker, that I had heard about which seems to be the perfect example of what I mean.. It's an 8x4 cabover with a tank on back pulling a 4 axle dog trailer for a total of about 42-44 ton fully loaded with about 24K litres of milk. The battery is about the size of a coffin sleeper behind the cab and gives about 8 hours with no load, about a third to a half of that with one, but takes a little over 3hrs to recharge and about the same to swap out for a new one. Given how our tankers run, For a t2hr shift and three to four runs out and back from the factory, it serves little more than a publicity stunt at this point.

About six years ago they tried out electric buses in Anchorage, Alaska. As far as riding on the electric bus or the internal combustion engine buses, it was six of one, half dozen of the other. As far as logistics and maintenance went, I don’t know. They ended up not adapting them at the time. Anchorage had a seriously good bus service at the time, but I don’t know if that’s still the case because they were always messing with it. Take care over there on the other side of the world.
