- THIS IS IN CANADA just so y'all know.
My brother's 1987 Peterbilt 359 Classic workin' in the bush near vassar, mb. sweet smoke! wish mine could do that. It has a 3406B block Cat 425.
Oh and a big thanks to you tuber tod3k for giving us the new name for this truck..... "Old Smokey Jerk!"
Cheers!
My chest tightened at the end as I thought he was heading for a roll over about 1.55 it sure settled those logs in though! Great looking truck he has there!
1:53 he's definitely made that turn before, he knows to gun it before the trailer tips, I thought it was gonna tip myself
Billy Lindauer same
Yeah man I about shit myself just watching that
Nah... he had a lot of real estate he could have used on the right and could have avoided dragging it through the ditch and almost flipping it.
nashvilleoutlaw , Thank You
Yeah that gave me a shock
When I see trucking like this it makes me think of how GOD blessed and watched over me trucking for 50yrs an operating everything that moved an drove everything but parkin lot an bed buggin. I started driving a 777 uke gas tanker when I was 16. I was 16 when I got my chauffeurs in 1968. I ran all equipment then drove a coal bucket and trailer an ran the coal mines in 5 or 6 states, pulled flat bed, bulk tank, drop deck an heavy mine equipment wide and heavy. Then about 1978 or 79 ran west coast and northwest all COs reefers, dry box, wedge, bulk tankers an retired with Howard Lisk in Wadesboro NC. RAN muddy mountains pulled in an out of places like you are in also with stick wagon. The harrier it got the better I was by the Grace of GOD. One job I applied for I was told I was over experienced but I just tried to do the best job I could do. I met some great people in 50yrs in 48 states, my name was BLACKJACK. Trucks didn't have air bags or the ones way back didn't so arthritis and trailer whiplash has beat me to death. Keep on trucking boys make sure JESUS CHRIST is number one. 🙏He made me let him out a couple times because I was getting a little to rowdy but he was always waiting on me to pick him back up a little further down the road. 😇 Be safe an make sure THE POWER AND THE GLORY is in the buddy seat and it will be just fine.
its amazing how thse big old US trucks keep running for decades.
in UK its rare to see a truck over about 7 years old
Despite what Jeremy Clarkson would have folks in the U.K. believe we do many things well. One is diesel engines. Truckers put literally millions of miles on their rigs before they trade then in on another one.
Clarkson is an ignorant bigotted joke.
Wow i bet your fun to live with if your complaining about trucks on youtube, i dread to think what bullshit you talk about of a night, DAMN
william, try switching on a couple of your three braincells and re-read my comments and you just might understand that I am actually in awe of them.
You seem like the stereotypical dumb Yank who knows nothing but Flintstones.
That has nothing to do with them not being able to do a certain amount of miles or hours. Big companies get rid of older trucks once they hit a certain milage or age to reduce maintainance costs and insurance, get better milage from newer models and to be able to access environmentally friendly demandzones (EURO5) that continiously increase their maximum emission standards like city centres that simply won't allow older trucks to access the zones for delivery, forcing companies and drivers to renew their fleets even if they did not want to.
It should also be said that all of these trucks that are replaced are shipped off to Africa, South America and Russia where they get new lives and continue in service for many more miles without having to deal with any environmental standards or fleet renewal programs.
Very classy truck, thanks for the video! Trucking can be fun and a lot of work all rolled into 1! Best of luck to you!
I bet that gave him alil bit of a scare there at the end
Crapped his britches ..lol
That gave me a litle bit of a scare in a safe distance! :-)
@@V8AmericanMuscleCar I agree with that lol
@LmElite Elitist 1:57
I know the feeling.
Always good to see what other guys are doing and what they're working with. Nice work on getting out them woods. You did what you had to do. Thanks for posting.
It scared the crap outta me when it looked like that trailer was gonna tip over
Me too, think he's made that turn before.
@@dwayneoxford9719 Yeah, I agree. He started to gun it before that trailer tipped over.

Cos your just a boboi truck driver
Just abt did....cut it soon
I like these type of videos best. Showing the trucks doing work they were built to do.

+Andrew Donohue sorry i like my peterbelt thats all my grandfather drove and yes these new def rigs r junk
Also, by directing the exhaust upwards, it keeps the soot from building up on the trailer, and prevents smaller cars from getting blasted with exhaust (which could happen if the exhaust was directed downward or sideways).
no one cares

Great to see an ol'classic blowin smoke and jammin gears!!
Wow this old beast looks better than some newer trucks out on the road. I had a chance to buy one this same year and model, but I didn't. I thought it was a 2000's truck but nope. My company wants 07 and newer. But what a beautiful rig.
love randomly stumbling onto fellow Manitoban videos haha your brothers got himself one gorgeous rig
I whole heartedy agree. Low tech doesn't break and leave you stranded in the bush
I like the sound from the air bag dump valve lol we used to have a pete that did the same sound and I've been wanting another one like lol
You got to love the sound of that mechanical caterpillar
3406 the CATS MEW CATERPILLAR RULES especially in the woods where tq is A must
My all time fav truck, Pete 379 long nose with a flat top bunk and bologna cut stacks! Guys this wasn't the first time he went through the ditch, you can see the tracks from doing it a few times before.
That’s a 359….not a 379
@@cheeseball247 Yes, you are absolutely correct, I was just stating what my favorite truck was.
Damn straight there ain't no particulate filter in that exhaust!
Even without DPF it has better emissions than a Volkswagen....
You are saying 'no particulate filters' as if that's something good. Hope you have got a bit more sense in the last 8 years since you made that moronic comment unlikely though, because if you were intelligent you would not have been driving a truck for a living so that's to be expected . . .
@@TRPGpilot yeah you don't know what you are talking about. From someone who is also a pilot here in the us. I can tell you that truckers can make 200k+ a year in the us if they play their cards right. Pilots in the USA are paid better than almost every country in the world. In fact new airline pilots are paid about the same or even less than new truck drivers.My father who owns a trucking company has drivers with bachelor degrees. Some people just enjoy it. In the us, it is law that commercial pilot must be of good moral character. Based on how rude, angry and immature your comments are you don't seem like you should be in a cockpit or even behind the wheel of a semi truck. You are a grown adult bullying a teenager who appears to be substantially smarter than you. I can only assume that you are not happy with your financial status so resort to bullying people. You should really consider being nice and more mature in the future. You will live longer and feel better. Have a good day.
@@TRPGpilot ta gueule t'y connais rien bouffon
@@TRPGpilot Son, be quiet....
I'd like to know your reasoning behind that comment....
Low tech is all you can rely on. If its not on the truck, it cannot break (wires, computers, DEF system DPF system etc)
NASA even has low tech implace for all of its back up systems. Take a look at the engin used for getting back off of the moon. It used hypergolic fuels for that exact reason-they are low-tech, all that is needed is to turn a valve that separates them and boom, you can get back home.
Lookin forward to the replys here
And now they're talking about cars with all-electric - Non mechanical steering systems, soon as a motor goes or a wire shorts or the battery dies - No more steering. I hope the brakes aren't electric too.
@@Senkino5o don't know how that would even be allowed on public roads. They've had steer by wire for years but it's not legal on public roads with no physical steering connection...for that very reason.
like heavy equipment. The operator is a very good skill. Very good sound. Thank you from Japan.
I agree if you not at home your at work !, first real. Truck I ever drove was a 78 classic , bull rack. Trucking has gone to hell the thing I drive now has camera in my face , computer controlled everything.
It's nearly impossible to roll a rail trailer like this one. The wood moves (as i'm sure you noticed) It will fall off long before it will roll.
if it ain't broke don't fix it!
show me an '87 volvo that still hauls from even this pansy terrain.
here in greece we still got old volvos that haul ass. Still working perfectly
@@dieselgeezer18 Shhh, the good ole' boys might get scared of that commie eurotruck tech
@@perry1134 commie? 😈
plenty of old volvo trucks doing work in EU, this isnt china, we build shit to last.
@@johan.ohgren sarcasm intended, of course. I live in the deep south, and there are a lot of people around here who think anything European is automatically socialist-communist and sinful.

That was pretty close . Give er the goose, and out you go. smoke is good.
" rollin' coal ' !!...... * I live in logging country of upState NY and never have seen a load of logs loaded that way .... thumbs up !!
i like how he gets it through the ditch without loosin it. Bad Ass Pete
i was reading your other comment , you pull 80,000kgs with your rig ? damn! well, you guys in Australia and the "wood ticks" in Canada have me beat . only 120,000 lbs for me moving concrete crushing equipment . and i do not even like that a lot . my hats off to both you and the guys in this video !
@JRtransport379 I have had the efficiency discussion many times here and for some reason people dont understand it but a 25 year old truck is MORE efficient than a new peice of junk that wont last.
There’s a reason the truck is 25 years old and the other one is new. One didn’t last the other did think that says more than enough about efficiency I’ll take an ol beast with no computer that guzzles fuel like there’s a hole in the tank Over some electrical nonsense that I can’t touch without voiding every warranty under the sun.
@@johno4584 i’d say that’s more so survivors bias. you don’t see all the trucks that have ‘died’ in the last 25 years, only the ones that remain. new trucks are generally built better since newer tech comes out and we learn how to improve on aspects that may have had a lower quality in the past
@@johno4584 You're really not the brightest, please re read your first sentence. "There's a reason the truck is 25 years old and the other one is new", it can't exactly be 25 years old if it's new? I'm losing brain cells with almost every comment on here fuck me.
i get the feeling the old girl is turned up a little, or the injection pumps bin tampered with! love it eathor way dude! personalty i dont liek rolling a ton of coal but hey its his truck so let it roll! love my duramax
1:58 almost an "oh no" moment.
Damn I was holding on for dear life.im sure he's used to that spot and I'm sure that all of those trucks leaving that spot probably used to that dip.great sounding peterbilt
A point of view: High tech/High maintenance or Low tech Reliability, a dash that tells you nothing or a dash that tells you everything (and does it efficiently)
Beautiful truck, always nice to see a proper truck in the grit working. You only ever see these shined up on the highway. A little dirty is a good look for this baby
@Teejoker1 You got my vote man.
LOVE the old stuff. It was made to work.
New stuff, is a pathetic and ridiculous loss of quality, and practicality.
Good to see some still rockin' this old equipment!~
Good. Plants need CO² for photosynthesis. Best supply it right where they grow.
Love it when he starts moving, all that black smoke! Nice vid driver, and sweet Pete!
GOOD ONE! I love it. It must took alot of practice and guts doing that left turn!!! I'm still LOLing 34x over that one nice job!
That was awesome I was really thinking that trailer at the end would have those logs come off.
My favorite part of the video is the no commercials part. Thanks.
Thanks bud, I appreciate it! I think this might be my favourite comment on UA-cam ;)
God bless u guys
I like heavy equipment. The operator is a very good skill. Very good engine sound. Thank you from Japan.
@WilsonHines nice choice, computers dont belong in a 359. best part of driving a truck with a smokey old motor: passing a prius and then foggin' him out...........gotta get a vid of that some time.
You aren't very smart, are you?
We're not gonna save the world with these beasts, but damn it's such a good show...
Should have gotten a little wider on that turn there.
DIRT LIFE agreed. If he swung a little wider he wouldn’t have almost tipped that trailer over.
Those old 359's were just put together RIGHT...I ran an '84 non-extended hood for a guy pulling a lowboy/flatbed/landoll, it had 1.8 million on the clock...and that damn thing pulled/rode better than the '06 379 I run now with 870K on the clock. Some things have improved over the years, yes...but there's a lot that's went downhill. Good to see that old hoss still earning its keep.
1:57 Load shifted to driver's side from running the ditch.
I thought the way that load was restrained was pretty.... uhh.... interesting haha
But I suppose in the US you have much smoother roads than I have in Australia. So you don’t have to worry so much. Just my theory. Or maybe this driver just did it wrong or something
@@LudditeK100 this is canada

3406 Cat? Hearing the Waylon Jennings song “Rough & Rowdy Days” while watching this video would be a good combination! Damn those old 359’s never loose their cool! Good Day Everyone!
I almost thought that load was going over there at the end, love the video!
Nothing like a Pete!
Won't catch me hauling logs with a trailer like that.
wow, nice camera. crystal clear video, such a refreshing thing to see. oh yeah, and the pete is nice too.
lol nice turn at the ending xD
sweet peterbilt i love my petes my dad had a 85 pete 359 with a 400 Cummins and i miss it we sold her in 2000 i want her back!!!!!!! I love my peterbilts!!!!!!
HAHA LOL!!! I was waiting for a wise crackin aussie to show me up ;) Yeah, I'd love to see or drive one of your awesome trains out there, but I'll have to settle for what we got here
You guys really know how to get it done!
NIce looking truck. Definitely can tell that you are back east even if you hadn't posted Vassar MB. Here in the west of the US we load the logs on long ways and don't cut them down.
I used to be a yard jockey when I was younger so I have a little tiny bit of experience, but not as much as most probably watching this video. My question is, how much torsion can a trailer or 5th wheel take before something happens? I never had to deal with this as I always had a smooth paved road to drive on. Specifically asking because of 1:57.
Well. Trailers and trucks stay together after gigantic wrecks so...
AntiqueFarmImplement Well boy, if you think theres no torsion when you hit a freaking tree, and then slide 100 feet down into a ravine, then you should be the one in the truck when it falls
chill your titties, they obviously are interested in the specific numbers.
AntiqueFarmImplement Enough to the point the gooseneck breaks on them log trailers
1:17 I saw those train horns and thought you were gonna get blasted😂
Awesome, i'd love to see it! But does it work on the highway, or in the bush? Either way, I am glad to hear that there are some other good old rigs out there.
But a new Volvo does not stand up out here
Again, I would love to see that '86 hauling big loads.
Beautifull Truck...
@MammoetFan how is it bad for the environment? it burns LESS fuel than a plastic euro truck would in this scenario, it scores better on those stupid emmisions tests, breaks less (meaning fewer unncessesary miles as well as fewer parts are needed to be manufatured), is durable enough to not require replacement every four years meaning another truck doesnot have to be built to replace it.
I could go on with more examples of how this truck is better, but I dont care. Go drive your fugly volvo.
thats why i always say loggers are the real truckers, they arent soy boys concerned about MPG and aerodynamics and fuel efficiency - they want a truck that gets shit done properly and that you can play rough with and it won't blow out the gearbox or throw a rod. older trucks have a hell of a lot more tolerance in their parts because they were made to work and work dependably.
my home province of Manitoba
that is some awesome cloud action
its the terrain that is making the cloud action possible.
any new vids coming soon?
I love he rolls the coal in the beginning!! Good job driver at the end!!
Perfect! Well Done!
He could have stayed to the right of the logging road as much as possible to turn out of there. It would have stayed out of the ditch...were not perfect though. Lol. Anyone who gets behind the wheel will have those 💩💩 your pants moments. Keep on trucking brother!
Beat that "tesla semi"
the tesla semi looks like an ugly fridge
It look more like a nose to me
i would drive that pete every day if i could it may be old but goddamn that is one well built and solid truck
Nice truck
Gotta love the gear whine of the 3406.
Nice Jake shift there BTW when you got movin then ya just about lost the load pullin out on the road.
wtf is happening with the truck in the beginning? was that when the starter was running? o.O
lifting it outta a soft spot
"
Breaking it loose. All the weight the truck, it sank in the dirt. Mushers do the same with dog sleds.
don't want to twist a driveshaft or break an axle
Dude,wasn't giving you a hard time.I am old school,,am looking at a 77 KW Conv
with a 450 KT.1,150 C.I's of power.Keep on truckin,I am.
Load 24 tons??
28-ish if I remember right
yep..plenty of weight on the drive's
Ru Stonesiefer still lighter than what they put on Scania, and EU Volvo
@@ΑΡΗΣΚΟΡΝΑΡΑΚΗΣ my dad haul over 60 tons everyday
Vcs americanos acham que isso e carga, aqui no Brasil nossos caminhão de 41 toneladas, KKK as carretas de vcs tem 25 Ton, as nossas carretas tem 133 ton
Aww, that's cute, I'm born and bred in Australia where we have road trains that make American combinations look like sandpit toys :p
Yeah, I've had a bit to drink and am feeling cheeky.
@celticbobb p.p.s. this rig is one of the lightest and most efficient of its kind, so stuff it and go back to worshiping Obama.
p.p.p.s it does better on emissions testing than my tier two emissions truck while burning less fuel.
At the end I thought that the trailer was gonna tip over on that left turn. Suppose if the guy swung out a little wider he could’ve missed that mud hole there? At least he didn’t lose that log load at the end though.
Sad to know that the soy boy generation of today would scrap history like that and still drink their Starbucks coffee that was delivered by trucks like that 🤦🏻♂️.
Btw, I'm only 39yrs old and appreciate a mechanical engine without all that EGR crap!
I’m 20 and there are plenty of non-soy consuming boys like me that still appreciate the older trucks and cars👍🏿
20 years old as well everyone i know appreciates older machines, just where u born and raised i guess. southern ontario farm country
Canon Powershot SX20IS, Great camera. I actually bought it as a still camera for a trip to Kennedy space centre in 2009, but 30k pictures, videos and one vehicle roll over later it still works great!
Those model of pete's are the best looking truck ever
Gotta say this is my favourite trucking vid on u tube. Proper wagon doing a proper job with a load of black reek (fuck euro 6), then a bit of tension at the end when the load shifts. Great work fella.
Рядом с правой подножкой, дудки пневмосигнала. Классное решение! Приводить в чувство чайников, лезущих с права по обочине для обгона.... ;-)
That's a high quality camera I thought it was a cartoon when the video first started
my first truck was a 87 t600 with a b model and 6" straights...loved my old CAT!!...nice video
Nice clutch work at start , but keep it rolling on top and swing to the right, he did not have to drop it in the ditch like that, good way to break suspension components, then I'm working on it all day, lucky, if I have parts, get you going the next day..
That's a damn good lookin peterbilt your brother has! Timbertrucking is fun job, because you have challenges everyday and everyday is different. Challenges are mostly at winters because its slippery, and falls when most of forestroads are soft because of the rains. But anyway... Very beautiful truck, i wish that someday i could drive trucks like you have there! - JRJ from Finland.. out
Yeah,thats right. I worked for some Companys with my own Truck. Peterbilt 359 13 Speed Double Over. My Big Boy is an Tri Drive. Straight Pipes,Jake Brake and many Lights. First Engine was Cummins. Two Jears ago i must Change the Engine. Now i have CAT. Logging is one of the best Jobs ever. My Favorite Time is in the Winter. And many People coming to me and say:" Hey Man, thats a Beauty." I am Pride for my Big Boy everytime. And the 359 as Tri Drive is rare. The Most Tri Drive are 379 or 389.
Awesome video man this is great stuff right here
WOW!!! OLD PETERBILT TRUCKS ARE THE BEST!!!
Hello
What cameras do you use in this vid? It was very impresive
Wonderful truck! A tricky turn there at the end, nice to see it went well :).
I grew up watching Convoy and and that era of trucks, when trucks were cool, I drive a truck now, always wanted too, but sadly I wont ever get to drive a beast like this.. I drive a MAN TGX 26.440 (UK truck) and its a nice comfy drive, Full Auto, all the mod cons.. all I wanna do is Drive a beast like that :) Open her up full Bore and watch the black pour out the stacks :)
Good old 425 B Cat. I'll watch for this truck on the road this winter!
Omg your like killing trees and politing the air all at the sam time!!! 😅 haha well all i got to say beautiful
Why are the logs done that way instead of full length?
I thought for sure that the trailer was going to tip at 1:58! Man this guy got lucky!
Beast mode.
Such an ideal vehicle for working in the woods... ;)
Good ol Pete
I would like to get a 359 with a big cam 400 cummins or 1693 cat and a flat top sleeper They are in my opinion the nicest looking truck around they were the workhorses back in the day cant go wrong with A Pete 359 there are still many of them making money with over a million miles.
Way to stay in it driver,never wanna stop that ole gal would have shifted on em
Thought that trailer was never gonna end .
