As an old airport firefighter I love seeing the newest technology.
I grew up by the North Sea in the UK. Whenever he got a new car, my Dad sprayed the underside with a fish-oil solution, which inhibited the creation of rust from the salt air and road salt in the winter. You ever see a rusty fish?
The anti-corrosion paint Rustoleum is made with a fish oil base.
Can’t say I have. Rust just drops of the scales…
Fish is loaded with iron says my doctor.
@@CCscott 😂
No, but I’ve seen a fish fry!
If you think this 6x6 Oshkosh Striker is heavy, you haven't seen an old Oshkosh 1985 P-15 8x8 with it's 4.5 feet diameter high floatation tires. That thing was nearly 85,000 lbs and had two Detroit engines in it, one at the rear and one behind the cab. It was likely the heaviest fire truck ever built.
From start to finish - a great video. As much as I love all things Caterpillar, I'm looking forward to the forthcoming Detroit V12 music in similar circumstances🤔🙂👏
Another great video FSC. Boy those Strikers would be a blast to haul around. Love the big loads. A lot goes in to make sure the load is secure and safe. I wasn’t a big fan of rubber tire type loads. Those Strkers don’t bounce much. Give me a cat track any day. That kitty Kat just seems to purr, love that sound. Have a great one FSC .stay safe.
Ya know somethin, some CAT intercom/speakers sound like the school teacher on the Charlie Brown cartoons !!
That sound... Dear God, how beautiful!, Orwell giving a show, Impressive
Morning Steve. Damn, I missed it by 3000#. I guessed 88,500#. Ain't bad for an Old Fart living at the Old Folks home. Steve, thanks for sharing and as always. We love you and were still watching down here in S.W. Middle Tennessee.😊❤🇺🇸🐘
Just this morning I was on Indiana rte.63 heading north out of Terre Haute In. when I came up behind a lowboy hauling a brand new Striker unit,we were in a construction zone which brought the road down to two lanes.
when I was finally able to go around after the construction zone ended you can imagine my disappointment when I found out it wasn't being pulled by Orwell.
The Striker was headed for the Elanco facility in Clinton,IN.
Sorry, but it was a Wiedmeyer truck.
@@fsctrucking That it was
Always a good watch mate. Love the sound of the Cat. 👍🏼
High Steve , with you saying it seemed extra heavy, i wonder if any water had been left in the tanks by mistake after testing !!!
The tires and wheels weigh close to 1800 lbs each as well.
Nice truck and love hearing the turbo and Jake breaking....
Air operated door... am I the only one thinking this is just another system to fail at some point?
Nope. However they have to come up with something to entice people to buy their equipment and not just refurbish an older engine.
A lot of old buses here in the UK had air operated doors. If there's a loss of air, they can still be opened as there's no pressure on the mechanisms.
Still pretty useless tho as in combination of holding the button and waiting for the door to open, a regular door with a handle would still be faster to open than that useless waste of material
Pretty damn flimsy looking as well
Wet roads , the go pro quality is good , and the sound from that 3406 B caterpillar is perfect..
Great video Steve really enjoy all the camera angles and your commentary. Fancy doors on the Stricker always something new stay safe.
Nope, it doesn’t get old! “I’m the manager” 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Good check on tie down eye, guess they are still writing the user manual, though that information never gets to the correct people 🙄 .
Great job and video Steve, thanks for sharing
Spent 6 months building the cabinets and inside wood work on a luxury yacht . 129,000 bucks only to have the truck driver go off his scheduled route and try to pass under a 13 foot bridge ! Ruined the whole boat and wood work . The boat was rebuilt and I made new cabinets and interior wood work . 2nd attempt to deliver they had a spotter with the driver to make sure no deviations from the route chosen was violated . It hit another bridge and the error was made by the guy that routed it ! The story gets even better . Insurance guy investigating found that the second bridge it hit was built 4 inches lower than blue prints stated it was supposed to be ! Never saw that boat again !
Good story, thanks for sharing lol sounds extremely exasperating
that is one big load man, lot of work in transporting for sure
When you are wearing heavy protection gear you don't want to get out your set of keys out of the pants pocket to unlock the door. Giant aid and feature.
You got me very interested in Interstate bridge clearances because of your 14 foot load. So, I went to a DOT website and read about the limited Interstate Priority Network where States were encouraged to modify bridges to a 16-foot clearance issued by the Federal Highway Administration in 1978. So, I'm wondering how many Interstate bridges are now less than 16 feet.
should look and the low bridges in Chicago and Minnapolis. had a city map of Chicago that showed all the bridges that were less than 13 ft. they may of upgraded by now, and i never had to take any routes that had low bridges, but i did run into one in Minnapolis, had to back up, 3 blocks before i could turn around. taught me never tho switch loads
@@dennismckown4951 👍
@@dennismckown4951 I know that a lot are still marked as 13 feet, such as the ones on 47th street west between I-94 and Racine, but the city dug underneath them making for more clearance, but never put up new signs. At least that's the way it was 10 years ago, when I last delivered and picked up in that part of Chicago.
@@dennismckown4951 yea Minneapolis does have some low bridges. Most semis make it under them along with the oversized loads too though.
@@bobac1083 well this one was located in a residential/industrial area. just wasnt oing to take any chances. was already tired from making the long run from Ohio to Minnisota. was going to sleep long after my delivery.
I really like the way you drive that truck
THANK YOU FOR VIDEO
Now she can say, "I'm the Manager, as heard on FSC Trucking!!" Everybody takes their piece of fame when it comes.
outstanding job.... love watching your work
Your right there... that sound clip never gets old lmao.
Maybe let the air out of the tires to lower the fire truck
OH ORWELL PULLING THAT LIKE IT'S NOTHING AWESOME
3:32. Just seems so hard on the equipment!
That Cat sounds so good.
FSC Trucking Loved here in England .
That cab over peterbilt looks awesome
May to June and diesel is up an entire dollar. That's if you can even get it with diesel shortages across the nation. Great job joe. Just remember folks, Its all going according to their plan. LGBFJB
27:53 brings up lots of stuff I know nothing about. Where do you go to get overweight permits? What if you get stopped on the way to the CAT scale? How do you get permits for traveling through other states?
That truck pulls like a champ
My guess is that the place where you used the shackle on all four corners, is designed so the weld cannot break. Because there is no weld to break!
You got the best camera setup
Big load for that truck your gonna be creeping over the mountains with that little 400 HP kitty 🐈 cat
I think he should turn it up to 450 or 475hp...but it runs strong as it is.
you need to get a bang bang stick to check it from the ground so you don’t have to climb on top of it and it’s faster and you get a better height
Fancy pants! Lol, haven't heard that one in a long time.
Enjoy your videos !
Curious why you can not let the air out of the tires to reduce the height ?
Sidewalls on that stuff are pretty thick compared to standard tires, they probably wouldnt flatten unless it had water in the tanks
I liston to that exhaust and it reminds me of the movie Duel.
Another good video KEEP ON TRUCKIN 🚛 🇺🇸 👍
Old Peterbilt sounding good their driver
So why aren't we going to be trusted to open our own doors in the future? I saw a brand new high end luxury car where the guy pushed a button and the drivers door opened. I am fully capable of opening up my own stupid doors! Sorry for the cuss word, I removed it!
👀😂👍
Because they see us meat sacks as points of failure that need to be negated so they can meet the new regulations to strip us of our autonomy
It's not the opening, it's the closing where the problem lies. Once that door closes, you can do anything to it, it won't open until you get the air out of it. And the truck won't move with the door open.
That’s a beautiful truck rolling down the hwy man 💪💪💪💪💪
Putting that kitty to work pulling that Stryker!
that fire truck looks very euro spec 😋
Good morning Steve!
Great video cool striker equipment that you are about to haul down to Baltimore. Have you ever thought about asking or talking to the car hauler see where they get those measuring sticks for the trailers when they carry vehicles to make sure they don’t go over 13’6 it may work out for you when you measure your load on your trailer.
The higher diesel goes- the longer the videos get. But most people don't have 37 minutes to watch. So the trick is to skim through the video. You skip the commercials, and you see everything you need to. It may cost him some revenue money, but....
Are those fire trucks air ride if so couldn’t you dump the suspension to give you more clearance ?
AWESOME!
You need those doors on Orwell!
Helluva water cannon on top
Ole Orwell is talking now hahahaha
That doors pretty cool, until it sits and loses its air and then the door won’t open 😂
Air keeps the door closed, which is why there is a retaining clip to prevent that during transport.
What's with the bungee cords???? Just curious!!
Hello there Steve. Where are you going to deliver the crash truck? I use to drive for Pierce. From Appleton to Washington State. Love driving for them. Keep up the good work you are doing.
That truck was delivered to Baltimore. There are videos of the trip and the unload.
love your videos all the way from Australia
Wonder if a fifth wheel inspection is ever done?
That was one hell of a hit.
In these jobs the Power speaks !!! LOL😂
No, I'm the manager. Reminds me of "I am Spartacus"
You need a height pole
Amazing, thanks for sharing these moments with us. :)
I'd go down 39 to i74 to Indy, then i70 to Baltimore.
It’s baked into the cake.
New subscriber enjoy listening to Orwell. ya ever thought about spray painting that upper left outside rim. I'm an old school retired trucker always carried cans of paint for touch up. Just saying. Stay safe.
That's something of a running discussion on the comments. Steve has talked about focusing on keeping the truck driving so he's held off on getting new rims but there's _always_ those who call him an unprofessional driver for not keeping his truck showroom clean while working or it sets off their OCD.
To most of us though, it's just adds character and so long as it holds air, it'll do. 😉
@@danielseelye6005 got it . and its making money . my OCD feels better now.
It's a sort of trade mark and winds up loads of people. A lot of folk want it kept that way.
They make measuring sticks for jobs like yours lot safer
When l working for an electric company to haul our 4x4 boom trucks and our 4x4 line trucks they would let the air out of the tires.Denis from Santa Rosa CA
Love you videos.bad ass truck.
Brother you need a height stick. So much easier and MUCH LESS dangerous. Measure from the ground. Well worth the $120!
that is a good looking tractor what is the drivetrain and engine?
I always hated the paper work for the over sized loads every state is different than the other,if they would make it All the same it would take less time to deliver a load
That isn't going to happen with the mess in Washington its like were living in another world
@@livinny1717 The people in DC are living in another world. They seem to only care about the Power of their work but not about the needs of the Country. Too many in Congress have overstayed their time there.
All the strykers I've hauled have been manufactured by general dynamics
Using a piece of rope then measuring the rope, is much easier when checking height
I'm curious to know the penalty for running oversize without any indication it's oversize, no flags, no signs, and no amber lights 🤔
I saw two this week...I'm guessing they didn't want to use the route they're supposed to take
I see them a lot too.
Could be thousands of dollars in fines for that easily
Did the mud flap bracket on the right rear side of your truck break off? Ever got it repaired?
Would it be worthwhile to have a special trailer made to haul these with wells to drop the tires in to lower it down?
hi 5 from Australia
Five thousand over legal for all trucks. Yep, she's a beast alright.
Can’t believe he stalled the truck !!!
Don’t know what the rules are in the US of A for a road test ???
But in Canada it’s automatic fail !!
On the test !!!
16 years never stalled my truck once !!!
In about another decade you'll be as experienced as me. Ever drive a mechanical diesel? Know what one is?
Seems like you will be bouncing tha bottom of the trailer off the pavement all the way to Baltimore not to mention crowning ! What about the clearance ! They make a scan tool for your windshield I read. What is the clearence foe interstate bridges ? Can you trust them?
Ever think about getting a Load Height Measuring Stick?
Why do you shave your eyebrows?
What brand of strobe lights do you have on your truck?
He is not Heavy. He is my brother from another mother.
Si assume you'll take I70 to B-more, which will take you past my house as you get past last scale on I70
Hello , I have a question for you ,how much power does your truck 's engine have ? . Thank you very much , greeting for Spain .
This is a stock 3406B Caterpillar (7FB variant) with a turbo so it's rated for 425 HP (312.5 kW). He could crank it up with mods to get almost double the power, but it would hit his fuel efficiency (5.5 - 6 MPG, 42.7 - 39.2 l/100km)
heavy beastie... silly question for you, the gladhands at the end of the trailer, is that for working on the trailer? ie working on tires etc or is that for somethign else? I enjoy seeing the parts of WI I used to go as a kid
This trailer has the ability to have an extra dolly set up on the back so you can have extra axles (and thus extra tires) to disperse the load if it's really oversized. Steve doesn't have that though and if he did, he would most likely need to upgrade to another rig with extra power (or modding Orwell) to pull the heavier loads.
@@danielseelye6005 ahhh, cool! thanks!
Good evening 😊 what was your empty weight 🤔 don't mind me asking!😊
You need to get the Fat MAX tape
You go to the worst weather, it's raining so many times when your unloading and reloading, stay dry.
Man you definitely need to invest in a height stick.
Whats up Steve? Whats your thoughts on a 3406 e cat?
I was just wondering what happens if the load damaged in transport. For an example let’s say you measure the load height and it’s within interstate limits but for some reason it’s get damaged by an overpass which was lower for than these limits for whatever reason. Do you than have to return the load to where you collect it so it can be repaired by them or do you continue on and deliver the load to port where it will get repaired overseas at it destination. Who insurance will have to pay if it not your fault because of overpass not within legal limits? This is just an extreme example I know but I’m just curious how it would be handled?
A while back I had one on video that went to Africa. There were two trucks. The one I hauled made it, but the other was damaged by one of the ports by a forklift. That was a long time to settle. I never heard how it was repaired or where.
Well planned route selection ? 🔃
Would rain-x work on the gopro lens for rain not to stick
Optics have coatings to control transmission and reflection at the lens surface. You'd have to know whether rain-x would harm those coatings before using it on a camera lens.
What size chain and grade do you use ?
You think they would have a dump valve on the fire truck to lower it for transport
Yea, I used to arrange transportation for a experimental city bus. We “jumped” it from a landoll trailer to a step deck trailer then squatted it to keep the height down.
Didn't they they tell you that this model came with a full load of water at no extra charge?
You have to do more pov driving thats how u get views dont get me wrong your a great trucker buh i wanna see pov and im sure your 61k subs do to
He switches around from POV to outside shots. If you read more of the comments there tends to be quite the discussion about driving shots having music played over it or just hearing the sound of Orwell flying down the road
@@danielseelye6005 Steve is down to 2 Gopros, so that's the cause.
@@csgergo80 That too will hamper his cinematography, but it seems people are more interested in seeing Orwell rolling on as opposed to seeing Steve floating the gears.
I'm good either way.
@@danielseelye6005 ik he switches from time to time but sometimes he dont switch we just be on the top im tryna see some pov im not tryna be on top of the truck
