    This was a rather heavy video to put together. I compiled every single cabover clip I've ever taken throughout my truck spotting career. (2015-2022) Some clips are out of order, and I am sure a few are missing. However, I still hope you all can enjoy this spectacular show of old iron in action!
    Enjoy!

    They used to make trucks with sleepers to allow a fella to get a good nights rest. Today its go go go and be monitored by GPS and some pencil pusher, bean counter. Back in the early 80's these machines seemed almost alive, rolling down I-80. Just works of art. Great video Austin!

      Me too, specifically the Mack and Ford from the 80s. Mack cabover is my favorite brah. I know they still on sell on few dealerships, but I don't know what will happen in 10 years. Things can be changed based on laws and parts can be discontinued from industry. The only thing is I know that Mack is a powerful and competitive industry.

    Seeing all of those cabover semis bring back memories & I miss seeing them roll down the highways here in the USA. I like that gray & white Mack one at the beginning. Nowadays the USA is one out of very few countries that have a small number of cabover semis still in service.

    • @MegaOsvaldo18

      Yeah, there is like from 1 thru 5 percent of cabovers in U.S. In IWOA, Indiana, or New York you maybe see a lot of old trucks. In Illinois is rarely that you a cabover or a 70s generation convoy.

    Great footage of some stunning trucks. Nice to see a Scania there even if it is only a 112 from the mid 80s. Powered by Scania,s own in house 11.2 litre straight six putting out around 350 bhp. Scania are famous for their own V8 engines putting out as much as 770bhp these days.

    1:40 starts a dream
    2:21 every one of those show trucks are beautiful
    2:35 something is really nice about those horns
    5:58 I wish I could see that in person
    6:16 is quite familiar
    10:11 that clip is perfect
    10:57 I have no words. Two Ultraliners and an F Series
    15:27 those are both beautiful
    15:56 I just want to keep this time stamp for reference
    18:06 yet again
    18:26 the best sounding motor
    19:22 is this something to expect on 33 in the summer?
    19:46 a Scania that isn’t Miller’s? That’s new
    19:54 I remember the day I caught that
    21:06 do you have any idea where that guy goes? He’s not far from me and I’ve caught him once, but there’s no set route that I know of
    21:16 a perfect candidate for a boat horn comp
    21:56 familiar truck yet again
    27:36 a combination of a Detroit and glory horns on an old cabover. It doesnt get much better
    29:15 it seems I came across that one again..
    33:31 that’s another beautiful sight. Two of my favorites.

      19:33 that’s when all us locals roll out in the AM for the show in Harford PA. It’s every September. I don’t remember the route too well as last year was my first time going, but we take 512 from Johnsonville to 611, then 611 all the way out to Route 80. Past there it kinda gets fuzzy for me.

      You need to come to Australia, where B doubles, B tripples & 2 trailer road trains are common. You'll have to go to the outback for triples or longer.
      Conventionals, slant nose (like SAR Kenworths) & cabovers all mixed. Though Most road trains are American, but Volvos Scania & Merc's on trains too.
