There is definitely a thing to daily driving a monster that you build yourself that makes you not care about the things that those new 100% comfort 0% thrill rolling house notes called "trucks" have.
Truck sounds kickass, I met John at Great Lakes dragaway at midnite drags very cool dude, he was checking out my 1972 Chevy c-10 and he put me in the magazine doing a burnout in Jan issue 2016 which I never thought I would be in car craft but I was very thankful he put me in it, he is a super cool, down to earth guy, thanks again John I was famous for a week with all my car buddies being in the mag, can't wait to see what you do to the truck next, Andy Deuster, Palmyra,wis
Wow, that truck is perfect the way it is. Love the original steering wheel. Please don't change too much in the future. Gauges that work with an old school interior is about all I would look at doing
wtf, didn't even go full throttle once. this video was about as fun as watching a formula one race under yellow flag. at least you'll know why I down voted now so that you guys can start making good videos again
Teh RedSpade it's a public road, it's likely got more horsepower than the tires can handle, and ultimately it's not his car; he probably doesn't want to risk crashing someone's pet project that they've put love and attention into to
The guy said test it. Giving him permission. Also, it doesn't have to be down town. Go to the outskirts like cannons. Idiots, idiots everywhere. And I get it's public roads, but be safe about it and no big deal. If you still don't, go to a track and review it. If you still don't want to do that, don't post a video. I'm impressed with how stupid people are sometimes
Logan Roberts well no shit dude. Post a few pics and then be done. A 15mins driving to fucking McDonald's and back... Hey, let's do it. Then we can do our daily fix bs video and retards will love it. We can just tell them were showing off the car
I still have my grandpa's truck that he gave me when I turned 16, a 1977 3/4 ton 2 wheel drive Chevy. smartly I quickly threw a built big block 402 in it. it had glass-packs on it, sounded the same way when shifting, it sure wouldn't shift the same as a T56 though. but that baby would scream and it would run with a lot of the cars around with no other changes in it. we even took it to the Local 1/8th Mile drag strip on test and tune nights just to see, the best it ever ran was real low 10's, maybe a high 9. I hope to resurrect it some day. Great memories!
This may not be fair, but I would never have imagined Lago in a truck like this. He has a more cultured Motor Trend persona in other videos. This is a great one though!
Seeing someone who usually drives lambos or pagani zondas or sort, driving a 67 c10 with manual steering, manual transmision with a long lever, floor mounted shifter. makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. and i totally love the exaust note!
PAKTRA PRODUCTIONS honestly its probably because of the rear end, with that much power you need a hardcore rear end which could also lose more power than a smaller one
Average driveline loss is a known 15 to 20 percent of your power. This truck has a manual gearbox (so no torque converter) and a heavy ass rear end. 580whp taint tea bag. These trucks (I think this one is a long box) weigh about 3600 pounds. With 580whp and perfect conditions were talking about a 10.5ish at 125mph. That's pretty fucking quick for a pickup truck.
elesjuan I just got MTOD and was super disappointed. The daily extras aren't even daily, just on the weekdays and 9/10 of them are terrible. Not even worth watching. Wish they had a flat fee for just roadkill and hotrod. The rest of the channel is useless.
I'm a CarCraft subscriber (printed magazines are still the best, and supports the industry), and have been following this build. It's nice to see it in action on video though 👍
Just got re-inspired: Just finished doing a grip of work to my '72 IH pickup. Had the throw out bearing start making noise and a bad lifter noise (rebuilt 258). Still putting the exhaust back together. Was about to throw in the towel. Saw this and if I can't locate a t/o bearing for less than a limb, maybe it's time for an overdrive trans. Bad lifter? Good excuse as any to add a performance cam kit. Then I can get back to setting up the turbo. Not looking for 700+ hp, 300+ft/lbs will work though. Thanks guys!
Well...it's fast and it might be the microphone, but...it actually sounds like the whole tin soldier army all together coughing into a tin bucket, doesn't it?
which turn to the freeway? the C10 is definitely a fun drive. I keep thinking of taking my C10 stepside out for a drive. I have fun in town and on the freeway. But this video really needed a full throttle run on the freeway.
oil pressure, water temp? both of those would bother me to be without especially on a motor that cost that much. i couldn't care less about tach or gas gauge or speedometer
It looks like he has 2 gauges mounted up in the center, most likely oil pressure and water temp. I don't think he's dumb enough to not monitor the engine vitals.
motor trend channel tim i wanna ask something where is the house of muscle episode 2 ?i mean a teaser for episode 3 . you guys even not yet releasing episode 2
MTOD is literally everything actual “car guys” aren’t. The fact they don’t get why shows how corporate this channel has gotten and how far from it’s grass roots it is now. All about the money, not about the community. Also nice rip off of One Take by smoking tire which, is still free and much better lol
you know, i think a c10 is a perfect candidate for a nice diesel engine, it might even get pretty good gas mileage, or does it need those duelie tires?
You know you've built a good car when it entertains you while sitting in the passenger seat.
Cars guys don't let car guys use crank horsepower.
found the English major
Shane Bigler They were having tea in the truck. No spills.
He said what the wheel hp was right after... It kinda matters to those of us who are tech geeks with details.
Hellcat's 707hp would be at the crank.
750 at the fly wheel not the rear tires.
There is definitely a thing to daily driving a monster that you build yourself that makes you not care about the things that those new 100% comfort 0% thrill rolling house notes called "trucks" have.
Old manual trucks have a soul. I owned a f150 i6 5speed and it was fun. Now owning 580hp at the wheels monster is a dream.
an exterior shot would have been nice. maybe the under carriage/transmission... a little more engine.
nathanyamaha465 I know I wanted an actual review/over view. This was kinda lame.
Basically just a One Take rip off.

"Truck Norris" is no match for the Sloppy Colorado!
It might actually run for more than a pass, though
I feel like truck norris is cooler. You can't lose with a 572 6 speed truck
"finally not another LS swap"
4:22 "That right is Crenshaw" (and if we turn there we wont be in the truck anymore).
race it against roadkills mucel truck
Caleb Kretzschmar muscle truck will win
Caleb Kretzschmar muscle* and this thing would probably whoop it, I don't know how much power it has so don't quote me lmao
but this is owned by someone who p robably appreciates it more than the muscle truck
Cbr Hoonigan I know XD
Caleb Kretzschmar muscle truck makes 400hp.
Sleeper, love it!!! "My car was shaking from behind you!" Epic!!
Wow, that truck is perfect the way it is. Love the original steering wheel. Please don't change too much in the future. Gauges that work with an old school interior is about all I would look at doing
He turned on prairie not Crenshaw lmao 😂😂😂😂

Logan Roberts because theye in a city... They should have gone to the canyons. I don't get what's so hard to understand. The video was boring af
Logan Roberts well no shit dude. Post a few pics and then be done. A 15mins driving to fucking McDonald's and back... Hey, let's do it. Then we can do our daily fix bs video and retards will love it. We can just tell them were showing off the car
Teh RedSpade budget, location, and time restraints are a thing
Really loved the exterior and engine bay shots.
I still have my grandpa's truck that he gave me when I turned 16, a 1977 3/4 ton 2 wheel drive Chevy. smartly I quickly threw a built big block 402 in it. it had glass-packs on it, sounded the same way when shifting, it sure wouldn't shift the same as a T56 though. but that baby would scream and it would run with a lot of the cars around with no other changes in it. we even took it to the Local 1/8th Mile drag strip on test and tune nights just to see, the best it ever ran was real low 10's, maybe a high 9.

So responsive in the low rpms. Gotta love those big blocks.
This may not be fair, but I would never have imagined Lago in a truck like this. He has a more cultured Motor Trend persona in other videos. This is a great one though!

More hoony, less talky.
Truck norris vs buick lee!
straight, then straight, then ughhhhh straight, oh wait turn here on Compton! lmao.
716 at the crank... you lost over 200 HP down the line !?!?
I went from jealous to not impressed in seconds.
PAKTRA PRODUCTIONS he said 580 at the wheels, thats still over 100 but definately not 200.
PAKTRA PRODUCTIONS honestly its probably because of the rear end, with that much power you need a hardcore rear end which could also lose more power than a smaller one
Average driveline loss is a known 15 to 20 percent of your power. This truck has a manual gearbox (so no torque converter) and a heavy ass rear end. 580whp taint tea bag.

The more power you make, the more heat and friction you generate through the drivetrain, which essentially equates to "losing" power at the wheels.
Call out Mike and David from ROADKILL and put this beast up against Muscle Truck!
"that's why we do this" Lol, I've never seen Carlos pick up a single tool in the 100+ episodes he's on this channel.
At the risk of coming across like a pedant, he wrenched on the 240SS project.
You know what surprised me? How much I love this build..... Especially as a manual?? I want one.
6 dislikes and you couldn't have even watched the full video
evil prius drivers dislikes it i guess
Most likely dumbass children that lack good sense.
Josh The Raptor Productions - JTRP it's the fucking children who want to piss and moan about motor trend on demand.
elesjuan I just got MTOD and was super disappointed. The daily extras aren't even daily, just on the weekdays and 9/10 of them are terrible. Not even worth watching. Wish they had a flat fee for just roadkill and hotrod. The rest of the channel is useless.
i wish they qould have shown some more outside shots of the truck
Here's a tip: coasting should be done in gear, never in neutral. It's safer.
Car craft needs to do a channel
John seems like a really nice guy. Not to mention that truck is MINT.
THUNDERDAD I know John mcgann in real life, he's nice but very shy.
What a fantastic truck! Thanks for making the video
There's a missing light inside
CaribouFr funny I noticed that too. 😊
CaribouFr It actually reminded me I am missing the same light in mine. The list never ends.
Hawk 1911 lmao xD
I really like John McGann. You've got to respect someone who lives in a storage warehouse with his vehicles and tools.
Jake G no thks
Editor of Car Craft and this is the first 700 + - HP car he has had ?? Wow !!
What a gorgeous truck. Love C10s anyway, but this one is special.
Very cool ride john.must be hard to wipe the smile off yer face as they're writing out an unlawful show a power ticket!!
I'm a CarCraft subscriber (printed magazines are still the best, and supports the industry), and have been following this build. It's nice to see it in action on video though 👍
1:48 "is it in Neutral?" let me shake it 58 more times
joseph martinez It's just something to do.
joseph martinez there's nothing wrong with that .. I do that even when I know I'm in neutral..
joseph martinez tbh if you’re don’t do a neutral check especially when driving a 10spd semi you’re probably still in gear,
Just got re-inspired: Just finished doing a grip of work to my '72 IH pickup. Had the throw out bearing start making noise and a bad lifter noise (rebuilt 258).

Is it just me or is the best content still free?
Yeah, it's amazing. Yeah, it's fast. But it's not the Muscle Truck.
Would have been nice to see more of the truck
What relation radio put it in differential, what Ring and Pinion you use?
that its my dream have a chevy c10, and man that was the good one
come back Carlos Lagos
Need more outside views of the truck, less of them talking.
Truck Norris vs. Muscle Truck.....!!!
Well...it's fast and it might be the microphone, but...it actually sounds like the whole tin soldier army all together coughing into a tin bucket, doesn't it?
which turn to the freeway? the C10 is definitely a fun drive. I keep thinking of taking my C10 stepside out for a drive. I have fun in town and on the freeway. But this video really needed a full throttle run on the freeway.
now witch do you guys think is better the muscle truck or the truck norris?
would have been a better video if it wasn't 95% one shot with yelling over the engine - would like to have seen more of the actual truck
you spent all that money on that engine and you can't pony up for some temporary gauges just to be safe?
Jay Groom he's not done yet...
i can't see see problem, drive safe and it's safe right?
oil pressure, water temp? both of those would bother me to be without especially on a motor that cost that much. i couldn't care less about tach or gas gauge or speedometer
It looks like he has 2 gauges mounted up in the center, most likely oil pressure and water temp. I don't think he's dumb enough to not monitor the engine vitals.
he said only the volt meter works, hence my comment
580 HP at the wheels, and lap belts. Sounds fun!
You know you've built a gearhead/petrolhead car when you can get someone to giggle every time they drive it
Brothelsprouts just thinking the same thing. Something is very right when you giggle every time you accelerate.
That big block C10 sounds just like my big block C10.
I want to see more of this but burnouts!
It's Farmtruck's little brother that moved to the city!
Do you think maybe you could show some Exterior shots of the truck?
motor trend channel tim i wanna ask something where is the house of muscle episode 2 ?i mean a teaser for episode 3 . you guys even not yet releasing episode 2
love how you show 4 seconds of the actual truck and talk for 15 mins
Seems like a lot of driveline loss for a manual trans..
GM trucks are usually good for 30% loss right from the factory
Curious where the 240ss ended up. Nice video BTW.
Chris Starkey it got sold after he left motor trend :( some one got a sweet rig.
For everyone complaining about drive train power loss, it is 19%. That is in the normal range of 15-20%.
Dope truck would love it as my daily driver lol. Way better then my daily
Everybody is saying "stop saying crank horsepower it makes you look bad" when in reality it's motor trends way of click baiting lol.
That Farlos Cargo, he's the best.
Awesome ride!
Last time I was this early Obama was still president...
JDM5GTR good thing he isn't anymore
AGREED!!
well...... this guy...
20% drivetrain loss with a manual?
Great truck and I'm not even done watching this video 👌👌. I noticed this was my hometown too lol.
4:19 The only truck in this vid that I want.
TURTLEMMC23 the Datsun
Natural aspirated truck that will outrun a hellcat, and still get lumber for your home project.
That's what I'm talking about!
white 99-2005 Pontiac grand am @10:41
What rear gears does this truck run?
I should have watched longer... 9:23 he says 3.73
which car is it in the beginning of the video ?
Now that is how you do a C-10, the Weak to Wicked guys could learn a thing or two...... just saying.
Larlos Cargo, I am gonna put "Minor Ordinance" on a big blocks valve covers in a C-10 someday 😂
Hey it's the smiling cue ball from the blown chevelle build video.
That's a man's truck right there.
i never knew the singer out of REM was into cars
This and the muscle truck, coolest c10s ever
Aye u guys are in Gardena. Thats my hood lol...
More C10 goodness!
Thanks for reminding us why we're glad we don't have MTOD
when does he get on it?
when u see a stop sign it really means spin tires on pay day
Truck Norris vs MuscleTruck!!
what tires is he running in the rear?
Mickey Thompson ET Drag radials, 295 wide, looks like a 17" wheel.
Those shitty streets and neighborhoods aren't worthy for such a nice Vehicle! Sounds awesome! Big Man points in my book too!
Truck Norris VS Muscle Truck!!!!!!!!
diesel bros built a truck for chuck norris and called it truck norris
Just a heads up - A Etrex 20 Garmin __ will tell you how fast your going how far track all you do and where you were going 97 mi/hr !!!
How many times do you have to shake it to realize it's in neutral lol
Can't wait to get our 69 k20 fixed. That's pickup right there is a 68-70 1/2 ton because of the grill on it.
same Truck Norris from Diesel Brothers?
Same Truck Norris Maverick is giving away?
I really wish I knew what shifter stick that was -_- it would be perfect for my truck
how in gods green earth did you fit a five hundred and forty cubic inch engine in that tiny little truck
MTOD is literally everything actual “car guys” aren’t. The fact they don’t get why shows how corporate this channel has gotten and how far from it’s grass roots it is now.
All about the money, not about the community.
Also nice rip off of One Take by smoking tire which, is still free and much better lol
I'm pretty sure you guys were speeding in a playground zone, nice truck
Did I just watch driving ms daisy?
you know, i think a c10 is a perfect candidate for a nice diesel engine, it might even get pretty good gas mileage, or does it need those duelie tires?
I would love to put a Detroit diesel in my c-10
