Absolutely ! Been driving a 579 about 5 years now . Mid roof , stacks , 18 manual. Good mix of old & new. Love driving it , don’t miss my 389 at all . The soft clutch , visibility & nice short stroke shifter. Just got a new 2024 , and only mistake is the dash. It’s kinda cool at first but No… just isn’t right. Fixed those sliding cup holders tho , it’s great !
Being a former owner operator after 30 years being put out to pasture by DOT, (medically retired), the Red Wine Merlot/Burgundy 579 is all I really liked.
Good video but, it’s sad you don’t have the 389 to show anymore. I think Peterbilt made a huge mistake. It’s like the old saying, if it ain’t broke don’t fix it. I live 5 minutes away from a Peterbilt dealership in Auburn, Maine. I drive by almost everyday & see the replacement for the 389 sitting on the hill & say it’s the windshield it just doesn’t look right. I mentioned before to your channel that you got to hook up with SH Tube or some fabricator & make a strip to fit the center of the windshield from the inside. As much as you guys do to modify these trucks this should be a cake walk for Tommy & Brian. ❤ your videos & can’t wait for the windshield trim package.👍🇺🇸 Dave D from southern Maine.
I tend to agree I was in the yard in Denton at the first of the year watching the 389s go Now, the 589 is growing on me. The damn cab is the key The old trucks were B27s!
The old guys hated to see the 359 go, people said Peterbilt was making a big mistake. Then when they got rid of the 379 people were very upset and now the same as being said about the 389.
International went to a big cab in 2002 Western Star did it in what, the late 90s. I hate it, but it’s all about cab room and ergonomics I know because I’ve driven both for my local company for 7 years Btw, we’re a Peterbilt supplier right by the plant
This wasn't necessarily Peterbilt's fault. The E.P.A. and government cracked down on the trucking industry. Every year, the auto and truck manufacturers are forced to design "more aerodynamic" and "fuel efficient." I don't like the direction of the trucking industry is heading, either. My uncle bought and spec'd out one of the last 389's. Very sad, indeed.
I love my 579. It’s not a show truck by any means, and the direct opposite of chromed out. Rides like a Cadillac and with the Cummins under the hood, I’m pulling down fantastic fuel economy numbers on IFTA. Thanks y’all for finally giving us aero guys some attention
As a european guy i like volvo's from us aero trucks.But this low pet at the beginning of the video is so AWESOME!!!nice height nice wheel base its so simply but so awesome!!!
I like long hoods, aero, cab overs, and euro trucks. Can’t drive any of them but I do like looking at them and watching the videos. Maybe one day I’ll get in a dump truck
The mid rise is beautiful! Love the color, and with a Dynaflex kit, 9 cab lights and a visor it would be wicked! Could also chop the top with the stand up like the black truck. Personally I like Aeros vs 589s due to easier driving.
I had a 2016 579 w/80 in sleeper for 5 years. Really like the truck but PACCAR motor 13 speed. Never again PACCAR. X15 perf only. The other gripe had, the sleeper was only 68" not 80". The fallacy is that Petercar measures the sleeper from the back of seat base, NOT from the joint at the back of the cab. Really do like the 579 290" W/B. Very nice! But I do favor a hood.
That metalic red 579 with the car hauler front axle you guys need to do up that one. I dig it but up here north of the border we would be plowing snow in the winter. Would be a killer show truck.
I wish I could afford the down payment. The long wheelbase 579 ultra cab in the grey ford uses on their raptors with color matched grill surround and bumper, color matched half fenders and rear t bar would look awesome. Of course ditching the skirts and color matching the tanks and putting stacks by the doors would be cool too.
Stacks by the doors on a 579 means you're ok with the driver's side exhaust being fake from the factory. The aftermarket has ways to fix that problem though.
Honestly, “fake” stacks or not hooked up it probably better with the aftertreatment heat. Run dummy pipes and put a four inch amber in the bottom on bright mode and make it look like you’re putting some heat out. Lol. The guys at Fitzgerald have made some systems before on the 389’s work that were redesigns. The work with Chad Berry all the time I’m sure they could come up with something.
Love the old square nose trucks but I don't understand why more people don't customize these! They look badass lowered and custom. The old school looking trucks were and still are cool but they had their run!
im starting to change my style of truck that i like the most! the aerodynamic trucks are starting to look better and they can be customized! especially the 579! the 567 is a mixture of both the classic style truck and the aerodynamic trucks!
Put some 7inch Miters and shift fenders and few more lights that truck would be perfect. You guys should finish that truck and take it to some shows I bet you would get alot of interest.
If I had the funds I'd for sure let y'all have free range on the stretched 579. For real lol. Course I'm not the only one who would though lol. When y'all get to customize it, it'll look sharp just like all the others.
I think that stretched 579 would look Awesome with Stainless 1/2 fenders. You guys never put those on your builds even though you guys build some Bad ass trucks I'm just old school I guess... 👊👊👊
I'd rather look at all of the 589's that you have LOL.. Would I drive the UltraLoft ? Hell No. Not if it doesn't have a gear shift. The red truck is pretty and it does have a ton of room in the sleeper though which is nice. It would be cool if the red truck that has the stacks could be changed somehow so the stacks were mounted where they are supposed to be, but at least it does have stacks, and even though they aren't separated, they will both still work.
Only if you could put a 12.7 Detroit in it with a 13 speed and 3.36 and make it mid roof and have a quite apu! And hell I only paid 210k for my house and 45k for my used vnl64t630 that's a lot for a truck for sure! Saying that they are nice how much for the green cornando?
Hey love your videos Question ❓ how much you are selling your Peterbilt long Nose 389 with a Detroit engine also 13 speed and the color dark blue, white, red
I have absolutely no use for one, but if I ever stumble into a bunch of money- expect a phone call lol. Seriously, the red one with the car hauler front axle on it is about the coolest aero truck I have ever seen, IMHO, it's a show stopper. On a completely unrelated note- what's a kidney going for these days?
I loved my 379 Pete but honestly I wouldn't mind one bit having one of those 379's built. I absolutely love long wheelbase trucks! 300" and above are the ones I love.
Much rather have one of those than a hood truck, to be honest I don't see the point of a hood truck. Not a huge Cummins fan, so would take the Paccar. What's the point in having a long wheelbase?
I always thought it would be cool to trick out an aero truck and that red one will look good. But it's sad when an aerocab looks better than the so called 589 big hood. I'll have to support the W900L as long as kenworth continues to build it
I bought a579 in August been customizing it a little at a time. I like it
Any quirks about it? Pros and cons? I’m curious cuz I’m getting one…

That red low and long one is very cool 😊
I need that one definitely
Being a former owner operator after 30 years being put out to pasture by DOT, (medically retired), the Red Wine Merlot/Burgundy 579 is all I really liked.
Finally! A aero ride!

I drive a 2023 579 with an ultraloft sleeper! Nice ride!
I had a 579 Ultraloft and loved it !!! The red one is beautiful !
As a european guy i like volvo's from us aero trucks.But this low pet at the beginning of the video is so AWESOME!!!nice height nice wheel base its so simply but so awesome!!!
I likes this 579 at the beginning of the video.. Beautiful color and great stance...
I like the silver on and the long wheelbase maroon one.
The long wheelbase 579 definitely needs Shift Fenders on the back with 8 inch Dynaflex exhaust. Miter cut or turnbacks.
Really good looking trucks. Nicely spec'd. The long low midroof is slick.
I like long hoods, aero, cab overs, and euro trucks. Can’t drive any of them but I do like looking at them and watching the videos. Maybe one day I’ll get in a dump truck
The mid rise is beautiful! Love the color, and with a Dynaflex kit, 9 cab lights and a visor it would be wicked! Could also chop the top with the stand up like the black truck. Personally I like Aeros vs 589s due to easier driving.

Really do like the 579 290" W/B. Very nice! But I do favor a hood.
I love the color and the wheelbase ❤❤❤
I absolutely would. That’s a great truck for what I do..
What happened to the white cab over that was in the shop
It’s still in the shop. Slowly but surely coming together
Its nice , it is
Valley Chrome had a nice 579 a couple of years ago.
That metalic red 579 with the car hauler front axle you guys need to do up that one. I dig it but up here north of the border we would be plowing snow in the winter. Would be a killer show truck.

That red ONE that’s stretched out clean AF
I drive a 579 day cab. Love it❤
Love the old square nose trucks but I don't understand why more people don't customize these! They look badass lowered and custom. The old school looking trucks were and still are cool but they had their run!
Love the silver aero
I love that red!
I am sold on the long low red aero peterbilt I really like it I'd keep those boxes on the side
When they both talk about the truck going past that didn’t turn the straps I knew automatically they know flat bedding..
I would because I've always been a peterbilt guy love peterbilts
Finally an aero! 🤘🏼👏🏼 one day I’ll by myself one!
A little long but yeah i would.
put the stacks on the side traditional looking
Those Yella ones ordered by Bottomley?
Good video! Do those 579 trucks have that wheelbase (250) and (290) from the factory?
Yes they do
Didn’t knew you can get them with the rear window
Peterbilt 578 would look sick stretched with a long wheel base
im starting to change my style of truck that i like the most! the aerodynamic trucks are starting to look better and they can be customized! especially the 579! the 567 is a mixture of both the classic style truck and the aerodynamic trucks!
Put some 7inch Miters and shift fenders and few more lights that truck would be perfect. You guys should finish that truck and take it to some shows I bet you would get alot of interest.
What a beautiful trucks
Like the one with the long wb Better & put bigg sleeper doors on both sides
If I had the funds I'd for sure let y'all have free range on the stretched 579. For real lol. Course I'm not the only one who would though lol. When y'all get to customize it, it'll look sharp just like all the others.
A long wheelbase 579 with dual stacks behind the cab just like this (except legendary blue) is the spec I'd go for!
I’d drive it for sure
Why can't I find nay info online about them Coronados. I've passed them a bunch, called y'all and cannot get any info.
Not sure… call 888-389-1487 someone will definitely help ya with that.
@@SEMICasualShow well I'll give them a try and see, I know if it's a used Coronado from y'all then it's definitely a solid truck.
The one with the stacks is super clean 😫😫😫
I need the long boy truck to put a Jeep on and my RV 5TH wheel. The color is perfect and to slam it down when in campground
I had one spec'd this past winter, 270wb, 18sp endurant, 565 x15 with tax, fet i was at $254k.
I would drive one.
Do have one with full side fairings
Love the truck I have a 579 ultra loft an wanted to know if you can put the vertical stacks up the back on it like this truck?
I like the aero trucks. I respect them all though
I think that stretched 579 would look Awesome with Stainless 1/2 fenders. You guys never put those on your builds even though you guys build some Bad ass trucks I'm just old school I guess... 👊👊👊
Are you guys going to order any 567?
I'd rather look at all of the 589's that you have LOL.. Would I drive the UltraLoft ? Hell No. Not if it doesn't have a gear shift.
The red truck is pretty and it does have a ton of room in the sleeper though which is nice. It would be cool if the red truck

what is the stock # for the mid roof that you showed
We just posted it on FB. Stock number 679541 👍
@@SEMICasualShow thanks i found it on the web site
Nice trucks great video why don’t you do a custom Kenworth t680
It would be nice to see the 579 with dual snacks on the drivers side and oasse m,
Only if you could put a 12.7 Detroit in it with a 13 speed and 3.36 and make it mid roof and have a quite apu! And hell I only paid 210k for my house and 45k for my used vnl64t630 that's a lot for a truck for sure! Saying that they are nice how much for the green cornando?
Are the pipes real due to the fact some are for show
I love the color 😍
How about a Long low Heavy Haul Midroof 579 with double bunk and 18spd
Imagine it any other color but maroon but yeah that thing is really cool lookn already
I would drive it. It’s at least a cool looking aero.
"Fitzgerald" perterbuilt.
So.. we can't do paccar S60 Detroits any longer? Right??,
Hey love your videos
Question ❓ how much you are selling your Peterbilt long
Nose 389 with a Detroit engine also 13 speed and the color dark blue, white, red
Love that truck, sweet.
Should have put side exhaust on it, had that on my ‘95 T-6. W/Studio, 4axle
im interested in ur truck
Longer wheel base gives a nice n comfortable ride not good if delivering around NY
I'd drive that truck to every loading dock in America.
I have absolutely no use for one, but if I ever stumble into a bunch of money- expect a phone call lol.
Seriously, the red one with the car hauler front axle on it is about the coolest aero truck I have ever seen, IMHO, it's a show stopper.
On a completely unrelated note- what's a kidney going for these days?
The ultra loft is ultra kool
What’s the 579 with both left & right big sleeper windows
Whats Downpayment??
Is there something wrong with a paccar ?
bring back the 386 style
Yes I would
What exactly is an Epiq truck?
I'd take it and run!
I am a 379 389 fanatic and the 589 is not even close. The 579 would be my only choice.
I loved my 379 Pete but honestly I wouldn't mind one bit having one of those 379's built. I absolutely love long wheelbase trucks! 300" and above are the ones I love.
I love ❤️ me some “magic” aero trucks❗️😂😂😂
Low and long 🔥🔥🔥
If I had the money I would love to get me a truck those are nice
Just needs nice visor make it look mean and some 8” window chops that’s it.
Much rather have one of those than a hood truck, to be honest I don't see the point of a hood truck. Not a huge Cummins fan, so would take the Paccar.
What's the point in having a long wheelbase?
That’s my dream truck but it’s gonna be a while before I can buy it
Okay, 579 Double Framed, 20k lift axle or Tri-Drive with a 20k Steer 18spd trans
I always thought it would be cool to trick out an aero truck and that red one will look good. But it's sad when an aerocab looks better than the so called 589 big hood. I'll have to support the W900L as long as kenworth continues to build it
I want a 389 but I want the fuel economy of an aero truck. Mission impossible! Lol
I love this truck, but I haven't heard good things about the Paccar engine. Can somebody comment on personal experience with Paccar engine?
I'd drive it like I stole it, and that's because I probably did.
Also customize a 567
Hey what’s up bros how y’all doing much love
Nah; modern trucks are not my thing but it's still interesting to see
Can the ordinary man afford any of these trucks? 2800 per month 200,00$
Ok, then fuel efficiency ❤❤
