Finally.... somebody had a brain fart and realized that a vast majority of truck drivers want just a plain Jane machine that can do what you want it to. We do NOT need all that electronic crap!!!
Everyone here is worried about the low cost. I'm just worried about the cost to buy Freightliner parts from actual Freightliner shops. Just changing the oil on these trucks isn't cheap, that's for sure. Buying an oil filter for these trucks would be the same as a Freightliner 26/28-foot box truck. How much do you think that will cost you? And other parts are no different from what you buy for a regular Freightliner box truck. I say this because I have a lot of experience driving these, and I work as a box truck owner-operator of a 28-foot Freightliner. I can tell you that no parts or anything are cheap when it comes to fixing or changing out anything on a Freightliner. That's the catch with the low cost. They would make more money off of parts than what they sell the trucks for. You're a one-time buyer-buying a Freightliner is a one-time thing-but buying parts is forever until you get rid of it. And you can't sell it for more than the cost because you would say, "I spent a lot of money on this truck and all that." Then people wouldn't buy it for a high price, and now you're stuck with it. So there's a lot more to think about than just the price.
I loved my freightliner top kick western hauler. Back seat had a power fold out bed. Would haul goose necks or big trailers. Bumper pulls and the metallic hot pink looked good. Had near 400k miles when i sold it. Never had major failures. Just regular maintenance tlc and synthetic oil
The catch is that it's just a body and frame that are $8000 everything after that is the options package add-on you know things like the Steering wheel seats wheels tires The engine the transmission.....
If I want a decent freightliner, grab a day cab Cascadia, rip the fifth wheel off the frame and the trailer connection utilities, and install the bed off a old Ford F250 on the frame where the fifth wheel used to be.
If this was true, I’d buy one immediately! Drove a freight-liner fire apparatus for years, towing a 40 ft HazMat trailer! Never even felt it behind me, but the truck was magnificent!
I think that just about every brand name has somehow advertised an "$8,000" pickup. So far, the closest i have found is a bare bones truck, in the $25,000!
I love this truck already. But $8K seems impossible. I do not need a work truck, but weekend Home Depot run. I am not interested in paying ridiculous 100K for pickup trucks these days.
I want a pioneer!! But when it actually hits the market the price will up exponentially. And also hitting the market and they will be scarce with everybody and his dog wanting one!!
I would like to go to a Freightliner dealer and check out the sport pack with Diesel To pull my 5th wheel. I would consider bigger truck than I have now. Both of mine are show quality over 35 yrs old. Would love to hear whats on the agenda.
You said that top trim of F150 only 60K??? What age are you living???? Try 100K or more. Since you missed about $40K-50K, I will assume this truck min price is $50K, which sounds about right.
It did say starting at 8 grand. I looked it up and they have a rear wheel version and 4 wheel version. So once you add everything it'll be over 25 grand.
They said my 2009 Nissan Altima 2.5s could only seat 4 people. I have a center seat in the bench seat in the back, and I've managed to seat 5 people in there no problem. well, except for that one time when we ran out of passenger room and had to let 2 of my buddies ride in the trunk.
The answer is no. But, if you put it to work as an over the road commercial vehicle, yes. Just the tractor would require a class C or B. If pulling a trailer class A CDL on C,B,A for commercial. Otherwise, private vehicle including with trailer - NO
Ok, aftet watching 1/2 way through, they describe a truck that will cost $80,000 MINIMUM!!!😢 They show the $80,000 to $120,000 truck, show us the $8,000 truck, because its not going to have a high HP engine or 4 doors, or A/C, and its probably going to look like that $10,000 Toyota truck.😢
Come on, this double cabine shown will cost somewhere between 125,000.- and 200 thousand Dollars depending on Extras. To me its phantasie reports, just waisted time !!
Freight Shaker LOL A Real work truck is a truck with a 5 speed manual transmission, with 8 feet bed heat and cooling with just a FM Radio only that it you need no more!!!!!!
With everything I've seen, I would gladly get rid of my Silverado for this. If this is for real. I don't understand why they were comparing this to the Ford line only, Ford is garbage. Why not compare this to Chevy and RAM also.

I'll believe it when I see it.
To my knowledge, NO ONE has.
Promise you. You will never see it.
Tell me where can I get one
$8000 and Dealership Markup will be $60,000
At least.
Yes a dealer showed the mark up $30000 truck at a dealership is $100000 what a ridiculous ripoff
@@tylerdunn6578 You're so right.
You couldn't touch it for sixty grand
@@mjla_1670 And forget the first series of a new vehicle, they always have a problems.

Sharp looking, but looks like low clearance off the ground.
I like the awd.
Show the $8000 model.
Inside and out...
I agree
It comes in a cardboard box at Walmart
THIS...☝️
Where's the 8k version? Lies
Coming soon to a HotWheels dealer in an abandoned mall near you.
You LIE... these rigs are $200,000 and up...
The Semis. Is this a Semi?
When it's too good to be true, there's going to be a catch.
Plot twist: you have to buy the $120K cab first and then add on the $8000 pick up bed
OK , I'm SOLD! I want one .
Where's the link to buy this?

That sounds a bit too good to be true. What is the catch?
The catch is that it's just a body and frame that are $8000 everything after that is the options package add-on you know things like the Steering wheel seats wheels tires The engine the transmission.....
7mpg
It is just made up for clicks
Where can I get one of these? I will pay cash today, where can I get one?
You can't get one - this is a joke!
If I want a decent freightliner, grab a day cab Cascadia, rip the fifth wheel off the frame and the trailer connection utilities, and install the bed off a old Ford F250 on the frame where the fifth wheel used to be.

I want to see this $8000 truck . Ill take one
I'm still waiting for Scotty Kilmer's review on one.
$8k. TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE. IF it ever comes out for that price SMH
Breaker breaker this here is the dream machine.
When is the Release Date, what web address is featuring this product option??
I think that just about every brand name has somehow advertised an "$8,000" pickup. So far, the closest i have found is a bare bones truck, in the $25,000!
Why can buy 8,000 truck
I love this truck already. But $8K seems impossible. I do not need a work truck, but weekend Home Depot run. I am not interested in paying ridiculous 100K for pickup trucks these days.
Let's see it I'll probably buy it tomorrow
Don't think you could buy the tires for that little.
I love it! Everybody's gonna be drivin these
You can buy these trucks in Texas.
What's the real price tag tho?...
What you are showing is the "FREIGHLINER SPORT CHASSIS"
I want a pioneer!! But when it actually hits the market the price will up exponentially. And also hitting the market and they will be scarce with everybody and his dog wanting one!!
1 cylinder diesel with a wheel horse transmission.. 😮
Even if it comes in at $32k that would be what America needs.
I would like to go to a Freightliner dealer and check out the sport pack with Diesel To pull my 5th wheel. I would consider bigger truck than I have now. Both of mine are show quality over 35 yrs old. Would love to hear whats on the agenda.
For 8 grand you don't even buy the exhaust dpf system much less a diesel engine 😂😂
Tell me where i can buy one and I'll be there tomorrow! I'll buy two!
If this is true, where can I get one? I'll buy one right now.
You said that top trim of F150 only 60K??? What age are you living???? Try 100K or more.
Since you missed about $40K-50K, I will assume this truck min price is $50K, which sounds about right.
I’ll take an el Camino or ranchero at this point. Just give me a decent bed to bring home large items with
Incredible" If so why buy a newer truck for well over $30,000 or $40.000 when you can get this for probably less than $20,000 with options included.
It did say starting at 8 grand. I looked it up and they have a rear wheel version and 4 wheel version. So once you add everything it'll be over 25 grand.
Even @ 25k it's still cheaper than most base model pick up! I've had 4 rams wife 4 F150 all over 50k!
8,000 down, 80,000 financed maybe.. before taxes, fees and registration
When can we get one? Looking for a a truck. Not real big. We live in Kalamazoo mi. Answer soon
You can't buy a decent used truck for that price! If these trucks were available,you wouldn't see that price till it's at least 15 years old😢
Correction: $80,000.
Stay safe and let the good times roll.
They said my 2009 Nissan Altima 2.5s could only seat 4 people.
I have a center seat in the bench seat in the back, and I've managed to seat 5 people in there no problem. well, except for that one time when we ran out of passenger room and had to let 2 of my buddies ride in the trunk.
Do You need a cdl for this truck?
The answer is no. But, if you put it to work as an over the road commercial vehicle, yes.
Just the tractor would require a class C or B. If pulling a trailer class A CDL on C,B,A for commercial.
Otherwise, private vehicle including with trailer - NO
Were can you get this truck.i I want one..
This is not a pickup. The Semi he is showing you can buy used for around $150,000.
Definitely forgot a 0 ,it starts at 80k and goes up with whatever you want in it.
Where the link and will you be selling in Virginia?
Hope it’s being built in the USA with mostly USA parts. We don’t need computer parts.
I'd buy one today
Where is this at, I'll buy it now.
When will it arrive in dealerships?
where can I buy one?
Do you need CDL for this truck
I want at least an 8 foot box, 4 wheel drive
How do you buy one
Driven them for years in fire trucks. I would volunteer as a bata tester. Lol
I like it very much I'm definitely sold on it especially the price
I want one bring it on
Trucks need to be built completely without chips.
Between China and Taiwan, chips threaten to disappear entirely.
Ok, aftet watching 1/2 way through, they describe a truck that will cost $80,000 MINIMUM!!!😢

There's no way that truck is only $8,000 thousand dollars. Maybe just maybe a down payment
So where can I buy my $8k F.L. Truck?
Come on, this double cabine shown will cost somewhere between 125,000.- and 200 thousand Dollars depending on Extras. To me its phantasie reports, just waisted time !!
You get a cheap truck with $5,000 tires. LOL
ok where can i buy 1 at.
The truck you're showing is not 8k... not with current economy
First things first. There's no way in hell it's gonna be that cheap! What a hook. Caterpillar is doing a similar thing. We shall see🤔
If it has air breaks you are going to have to have a CDL license
There’s no such thing unless you pay $209K
I am not sure this is true. I think you have to build it, like made to order.
The truck they keep showing is about $180,000 just saying
8,000? Just looked at a 2006 model for 81,000
Is this available in Canada ???
Look it up that is a $150000 truck you can't buy the engine for $8000
I’ll max my cards out right now now for one or two of these babies
WHERE?????????
Is this available in South Africa??
That have had these out for years but not for 8000 dollars
OK...where is it?
None of those shown are 8,000 bucks
And what class license you need for it? A, B or C?
Please... no electronics
Old school carboration
$8000 bucks let’s see that truck
still waiting to see the CAT truck on the road.
This truck is my dream truck
We're can I get one
Won't happen.
I own a raptor cost me 50000 paid it off after 5 years 6 months I really want to see what they offer
8000? Hell the motor cost that much
Looks too big for me. I'll keep my 1998 Nissan Frontier. For the $3,000 I paid for it, it's just fine.
The tires might be $8000
I would like to see what the "Pioneer" will look like.
A pick-up truck with air brakes . . . are you out of your mind ?
Freight Shaker LOL A Real work truck is a truck with a 5 speed manual transmission, with 8 feet bed heat and cooling with just a FM Radio only that it you need no more!!!!!!
With everything I've seen, I would gladly get rid of my Silverado for this. If this is for real. I don't understand why they were comparing this to the Ford line only, Ford is garbage. Why not compare this to Chevy and RAM also.
Ide buy one right now !
The ground clearance , looks suspect for me , i will keep my fingers cross until the real truck drives out and its in the hands of everyday users
