That's a penske rental. They sell them at 500k or 5 years. Whatever comes first unless it's an International then sold before warrant wears out. Usually 3 years. Those trucks have their own issues. Many windscreens leak causing the sam cab modules to short which is located under the glove box. Being a multiplexed truck isn't old school. Freightliner been doing it old a few years unlike international where they are much more versed in it. Newer Cascadias are a single sam unit now.

I think that when he was calling it “old” he meant in terms of use. If it only feels like 300 hp out of however much it originally had then it must be on its last leg.
Sounds right if it’s on the original engine and feels like 300hp it must be on its last leg. If that truck didn’t have an APU it would have been dead a long while ago.

2016 is old. Big truck fleets and many owners ops get rid of their trucks after 4 years for a reason. After the warranty is up and the truck has many miles on it, repair costs begin to climb quickly.

I drove a 26ft Penske rental International for a friend who was moving from MA to Minneapolis. That thing was a slug. And I don't know why my friend got such a big truck. It was maybe 30% full. Topped out at 65mph and you had to PLAN any passing. This all without needing a CDL.
I drove almost the exact same truck for about three years. Never had an issue with that transmission. Keep the shiny side up and the greasy side down drive safe man.
Just listening to this "million miler" and I realize he doesn't know jack shit about trucks or trucking. Sad state of affairs for trucking in general. At the wages these company drivers get paid this guy is all the carriers can look forward to.

Take a look at a Peterbilt 389 and you’ll see what a real old school truck is. Big old school steering wheel, 18-speed manual, completely square dash and square body and stacks sticking out the top
I think the reason why your clutch vibrates hard on forward and backward, its maybe because the clutch lining and clutch plate needs to be replace. It might be metal on metal.. and also release bearing might be stuck up as well.
hey that fridge lock isnt actually a lock, its supposed to be used only when you're venting the fridge. you turn the lock and close the fridge, ur fridge wont close all the way and thats how its designed to keep the door from closing all the way so ur fridge vents out

Speeding,disregarding work zone safety and all the unsafe unprofessional acts from new generation drivers. That’s why I trip plan every load at 50 mph so I’m leaving myself plenty of cushion. I get paid percentage so I’m not chasing miles so I love driving 65 just enjoy the drive. Great video man

I laughed when you said its a 2016 and has 76 thousand miles and its still driving lmao like its so rare
out of curiosity. How would it be for me with an Norwegian truck license If i moved to Us/Canada, Would it be transferable or do i need to take all test's again? & How is it to take compared?
Thats sad, at least u got the nice LED lights and not the crappy stock ones.
would happily have the halogens over LED anyday... at least you are not blinding others on the road
@@privatename1184 I agree with you on the blinding part but... my old truck had halogens and I couldnt see squat at night and I mainly drive at night. That being said I like being able to see at night with the new leds.
@@privatename1184 I don't drive truck for a living, but my car dose have led head lights. I'll tell you this. I have never had a issue with big rigs, and led head lights. Even in my sports car. Most truck headlights. Seem to be below or above main line of vision. Its the idiots that put led bulbs. In a halogen housing. That are the issues for me. Led lights in proper housing, and proper alignment. Don't blind people.
There’s another TA in Dallas on i30 on the 205 highway exit
You call that old school when did you start driving tomorrow?
@Paradoxical Nightmare wow how did you know that??
@Paradoxical Nightmare wow that's genius
@Paradoxical Nightmare ur iq should be above 170 wow dude
@Paradoxical Nightmare r/whoosh
Me just chilling right now and just wating for Tomorrow to Drive my 2000 kenworth T600 N14 525hp with some music in the background (Jake break) 😁😁.
Fransisco Amaya vids show that these older cascadias can be misleading on the odometer - there is a way to look at true engine odometer navigating thru the computer somehow. Good vid Rusty -
Gee young lady if you think that's a good video I can understand why our country is going down hill so fast.
@@bertgrau9246 Thanks you for your constructive and cogent reply. You have made this country "a better place"
Old School?????? I started in 1998 in a 76 International cab over. What a puss. I and I’m a proud owner operator of a 2016 Cascadia. And I love this truck. Of corse this is what you get when you give all the kids a trophy
I recomend parking at the very back of truck stops and park nose first so if they hit you they will hit your trailer instead of your truck
Texas Tech until you break down or your battery dies and you need a boost and your nosed in
Wow somebody got widdle Rusty's feathers all ruffled up the D truck looks a Rolls Royce compared to the crap we drove coast to coast back in my day. Good luck kid I'll check on you later.
rusty you say the rental truck is really gutless and yet your vids show you passing everything on the road . maybe step back and reassess
*BOUJEE ALERT BOUJEE ALERT* 🚨 ‼️
I Love the frieghtliner cascading.!
73 that's brand new engine ,That things gonna be running for the next 5 years
I'm laughing because I'm in my 1989 FLD LOL
Ezra begin me too, sitting in my company’s 2019 full loaded international lt, with my 1996 fld waiting for me back home. Hopefully this is my last month as company driver.
Dude calling that 2016 old school made me think I own a Dinosaur!😂
Carlos Gomes good hope it goes well
US green pump handles for diesel always sketches me out in Videos 😂😂. In Europe the green ones are gasoline.
that worn trailer tire was probably a steer tire when it was new.
Correct that trailer tire is a steer tire, they are a lot softer than trailer tires so they wear a lot faster and uneven.
@@smokeu600 my buddy has some older trucks and the steers don't wear even. he'll take them off the truck and use them for spare trailer tires. got to get your moneys worth. it's little cost saving things like that that keeps him in business.
Les Confused
Hey I do the same thing. 😁
I got a 99 international and he literally called OLD SCHOOL a 2016 FREIGHTLINER!!!
Lol he's clueless
My dad drives a '15 Cascadia, it has the Cummins ISX15 and that same Eaton Smart Shift, but his has a clutch pedal for start, stop and change between D, R and N... It has 280K miles and it's been constantly having transmission issues, once it got stuck on neutral while turning a very busy intersection on the middle of the highway.
That truck has been very unreliable...
At 19:51 in front of that white camper is exactly the spot where Michael Jackson filmed a portion of his music video "Thriller" in the 80s in Vernon California.
He always complains about everything...
finnish15 says the one complaining
Joe Mengler it’s a statement....
5:34 to 5:50 You think that's loud, Rusty, you ought to try an 8v71N with straight pipes. Now that's loud!
WAH WAH WAH WAH WAHHHHHH, Jesus mate get a different job then
Fuss , fuss. You ought to drive what I started in , a Brockway screaming demon Detroit. Tight cab. Maybe 60 in a tail wind. Dad drove an old mack , no radio , heater , bolt down seat. I rode on the dog house when he picked up help. He drove for the old Caldwell company in Tampa. Miss the road. 🐻
Not me brother...too many weird people both in 4 wheelers, and in Big trucks these days...plus the DOT mandating so many new rules...they can keep it...OTR anyway...just before getting out of the business I worked for a company that delivered car parts to the dealers...great per week money and you are out mostly at night when the idiots are asleep...
Hey just an observation On the miles. are you sure it wasn’t switched to trip meter?
I drove a 26ft Penske rental International for a friend who was moving from MA to Minneapolis. That thing was a slug. And I don't know why my friend got such a big truck. It was maybe 30% full. Topped out at 65mph and you had to PLAN any passing. This all without needing a CDL.
You “deleted the check engine light” and were supposed to believe you’re rebuilding a truck on the side? Lmao
Matt M sometimes it could be a code. I aint no vehicle person, but it happened to our pickup, and we had the code “deleted” when we had an oil change
I drove almost the exact same truck for about three years. Never had an issue with that transmission. Keep the shiny side up and the greasy side down drive safe man.
Welcome to missa pissy? 💀 6:20
I laughed so hard :))
It is Mississippi not missa pissy
Thank you rusty for posting a new vlog and keep up with your Volvo VNL and have a very good week.
Just listening to this "million miler" and I realize he doesn't know jack shit about trucks or trucking. Sad state of affairs for trucking in general. At the wages these company drivers get paid this guy is all the carriers can look forward to.
and cried about going 5mph less than his other truck -facepalm-
Wait you don't spell it fright liner? Even when it's spelled out on your hood lol
The truck has been rode hard. The transmission may be slipping. The transmission may need new fluid and filter?
lovely content
A tip : you can watch series on KaldroStream. I've been using them for watching a lot of movies lately.
@Ezra Baker Yup, I've been watching on kaldroStream for years myself :)
74k miles after 5 years? my 2016 cascadia has 238k on it and i only run local routes in tx. i wish my truck would do 70. says its super loud in that truck. hop in a 84 359 pete and then see how loud it is in that 2016.
THOUGHT THAT WAS LOW MILAGE FOR A 2016
I HAVE BEEN A OWNER OPERATOR FOR 16 YEARS
I STILL HAVE THE FLD120 I STARTED OUT WITH
I HAVE RUN OVER 1MILLION MILES AND ONLY BEEN ON THE HOOK 1 TIME
MY FIRST CAREER WAS A MASTER TRUCK TRCH AT A FLY DEALER FOR 15 YEARS
I HAVE 2 DOT DECALS ON WINDSHIELD THAT SAY MY OLD TRUCK HAS PADSED 2 TOTAL DOT CHECKS
FILEINGS, TRUCK MECH CHECK
ALL PAPER WORK UP TO DATE
and a damn fine truck at that
Awesome, the fld was pretty much the most reliable easy to run truck ever, that was my first truck too fld120 classic,made me so much money and never ever broke down,I still have it as a backup truck
I never seen a check engine light in a b model mack hahaha now that is old school no gps no radio no air conditioner no power steering welcome to the 50s
All I learned from this video is how much of a whiny princess Rusty can be. Suck it up bro.
advice for better coffee, get a k-cup press from amazon, and a kettle. it's cheaper, and you can get a lot better coffee :) As for the casgaydia, that sounds normal for a rental. I got stuck with one and it was pretty neutered.
It could be worse.. You could be driving a cabover..
Iron Lung 71 nothing wrong with them
The Scandinavians have got it right, but all of the Kenny cabovers are running 1950's suspension tech. Back breaking crap for 2020.
@@gregshearer423. Yeah. I'm in New Zealand, and I love them. But this guy's a fucken idiot, whinging and bitching about a good truck that he's only driving for a couple of weeks.
I love cabover semi's they are beautiful
I started driving in 1973 and you were lucky if the heater worked and had one of those fancy air ride seats *sez the boomer with hemorrhoids :) :)

You're the best trucking channel I have ever found on youtube!
lovely video
Take a look at a Peterbilt 389 and you’ll see what a real old school truck is. Big old school steering wheel, 18-speed manual, completely square dash and square body and stacks sticking out the top
My truck just turned 33
LOL dude you are describing the best truck I ever had when I was OTR. I guess I'm missing out on the newer stuff
I think the reason why your clutch vibrates hard on forward and backward, its maybe because the clutch lining and clutch plate needs to be replace. It might be metal on metal.. and also release bearing might be stuck up as well.
hey that fridge lock isnt actually a lock, its supposed to be used only when you're venting the fridge. you turn the lock and close the fridge, ur fridge wont close all the way and thats how its designed to keep the door from closing all the way so ur fridge vents out
I want to know where they sell Tripac for 3k that's cheap they usually cost close to 10k for new even used are expensive
SunShine's World found some in my area used for 3k
@@TheRustyCracker Yes used 3grand for tri pak, penske did not pay 3grand for it when they installed it
Brand new TriPack starts at $8,000 I’m a owner operator and my truck isn’t governed but I choose to drive 65. Why be I a rush? Speeding,disregarding work zone safety and all the unsafe unprofessional acts from new generation drivers. That’s why I trip plan every load at 50 mph so I’m leaving myself plenty of cushion. I get paid percentage so I’m not chasing miles so I love driving 65 just enjoy the drive. Great video man
Great content Rusty - simple & straight to the point! What camera / editing software do you use? Need to call your boss and get that rig changed dude!
GoPro , imovies
That shuddering could be a calibration issue where it dosent know it's bite point
Who else liked it before they watched it 😂👍🏼🤙🏼
You might gave a clogged EGR valve, hence the shudders & low power output.
I dont know that my brother told me that when I'm a truck driver he told me that the more you drive the less money you get and if you're fast driving the truck the more money you get so I don't know??
Erika Salcido he must get paid by the mile or something. I drive slow as fuck and I still get my loads in and get paid
Hey I work for Penske I am a diesel technician and most of our trucks are slow like that it’s just how we get them spec from the dealer
I really love your videos, also I am your subscriber but when you say this is 5 year old truck that has 73, 000 miles and it's still driving, you make it sound like it's going to die any moment now :))...in my experience if you take care of them you can get 500,000 miles with out overhauling the engine or transmission. Then I watched until the end and I get it now. Keep up the good work
DUDE, A 2016 TRUCK
COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS
