    You never miss a gear. The tachometer in your head is perfect. When I was a kid I ran a D9 cable lift at the local waste site. She was not fun to start with a pony in cold mornings. She had a crack in her head a child could lose his pecker in when she was cold too. I bought so much alumaseal the napa guy thought I was making thermite! I am disabled now and I love being on this end of your camera so much.thank you! Love, Jerry S.

    I'm 81 years old beed driving truck since 1960 and pulled a low bed for many years. Love watching your equipment videos but most of all I love when you pick up equipment in your Pete, The new trucks today are mostly automatic. I drove a KW with a 5 and a 4 a twin stick and love the sound of your truck when you turn on the Jake's. I'm still driving and miss the lobbed. I just deliver trucks now so I don't even pull a trailer. Keep making your great videos I'm sure their are a lot of old timers like me that really love your stuff.

    Way to go Clint!!~ I helped load a 794 CAT truck (250t capacity) at the Decatur Plnt in 1982. It was the frame, engine and trany. I don't remember the net on that bugger. The truck had 4 axles under the tractor, a three axle jeep over that, and six axles under the trailer. We had to use two 50t overhead cranes to pick it up. The driver wanted engine back. We told him it wouldn't work. It didn't. We picked it up six times before we got the weight on the axles balanced. He left like his tail was on fire. He had to be out of IL before dark. I always wondered if he made it. He was headed for a copper mine in Wyoming. Great fun.....

    Clint I want to tip my hat to you being a professional truck driver and you show it in all your videos. There are some YT truck drivers that are not professionals doing there jobs and they film it cut corners securing their loads, break traffic laws it’s embarrassing for professional truck drivers. 327.3 miles total.

I used to drive past your shop all the time, it is so peaceful out that way. I'm stuck in the middle of Bloomington most of the time now, but anyway Stay safe brother. Can't wait till the next video. The scenery is so awesome in Nashville in the fall. Brown County is such a beautiful area.
