I've seen busses dumped at Florida and Alabama truck stops too... No one's around the unit for days, all of the tags and permits are years expired!
Drove cabovers little over 20 years, do miss them. Yes today’s drivers are a different breed ( there’s truck drivers and guys what drive trucks )
You know Steve is fighting the urge to go back and pickup that old army truck! I would be!
they are a dime a dozen you can find them every where's
Old army trucks can be used as working trucks or show trucks
@@c-v-n3322 That's what she said
That, or he can head to Marmon-Herrington and get Orwell turned into a 6x6 for O.T.R. use😆
Speaking of which Steve, if you ever get a chance stop in Kentucky, you should go visit Marmon-Herrington and see if they'd give you a tour of their setup!
Thank you the sound of your truck is comforting my husband.. he has cancer, anything that can comfort him right now is a blessing. Drive safe.
If he likes Led Zeppelin, he might like the videos I post of me driving my truck while listening the some of their music!
The last video when they were loading up the bucket truck up onto the trailer Steve wanted to skool that guy with that forklift lol😂
There may be a lot of stuff going on at that truck stop. Those two guys that changed the sign on the door may be shady.
As a dispatcher they Probably got hired to new company n were forced to change the placard , happens all the time ,
Knowing where to stay away from is as important as knowing where to go
Truck stop shenanigans - haven't changed one bit. Love the Love's Truck Stop video. And Swift, yep, still reflects the acronym - Sure Wish I'd Finished Training! Great videos Steve - keep up the great work - Love 'em! Oh yeah, and the tarped coil - that's a winner!
I've seen all kinds of drivers from all kinds of company's do all kinds of stupid stuff. Swift gets a bad rap because they hire new drivers and they have tons of trucks so they show up in the idiot box more then most, but boneheads are everywhere, not just Swift. Beside, nobody is born knowing how to drive a truck, and we all had a start in trucking at some point.. and over time "some of us" learn how not to be that guy. Then again, some never learn...and it doesn't mater who they drive for, they still pull stupid moves.
@@oldenfarten5350 If that is a roll of steel held down with 1 strap that driver just might learn his last lesson as the roll rolls right through the cab. Shame on the mess !!
It was my understanding SWIFT stood for- "See What I Fu*ked Up Today"?

I have been in love with big trucks since I was like 6 years old... AND IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN A DREAM OF MINE TO RIDE IN A OLD SCHOOL CABOVER!!! THANKS FOR THE VIDEOS!! YALL BE SAFE OUT THERE NOW!!
That is so cool seeing the truck turned and the steering wheel and the international not turn. That is just so awesome I love it
Great video Steve really enjoy all the different camera angles and your commentary and the music. Never a dull moment at that Love's truckstop thanks for sharing stay safe Steve.
That crashed tractor was a Penske at one time, can tell by the signature stainless IFTA decal plates on the cowels. The left side has a Penske annual inspection decal on it.
It looks like to me the Freightliner got jackknifed, a little bit more and the cab would have been torn clean off it.
Yeah, just what I was thinking too.😢
Hey Steve! Glad to see your uploads, Won't be at MId-America truck show, But I hope you meet some good fans!
Steve we are all going to take a donation for aluminum wheels on the back of your truck. That's all Orwell needs.
Then the police will ticket you for not parking in designated truck parking spots due to no truck parking avilable due to these abandoned wrecks
You need to get those black spots on your windshield scraped off I keep thinking it’s my phone lol 😆😆😆😆keep the videos coming 👍👍
Glad I'm not alone. LOL
Across the street from that Loves is the Gas Grill Restaurant, the best food for miles around and they fill up your plate.
Been there many times, and you are right!
you think its bad there go to odessa or midland texas.
Transporting a bobtail from Pennsylvania to North Carolina. Stopped at Loves in Virginia and saw 2 new Volvos in one space. One of the new Volvos had damage on it.
shifting up into the next higher gear on the high side and then dropping the splitter to the low side is how I was taught to do it that way when you put your foot back in the throttle it will down shift and away you go
Thanks for the best TH-cam truckin' channel. Every video takes me back to when truckin' was 'fun'.
'Orwell' sure brings back a lot of great memories of my 1977 KW K-1, 430 Detroit, 13 O/D, 3:70 Rears... It would get the job done. Hauled 'Swingin' Meat' & Bananas ! with Refrigerated Transport of Atlanta (Gulfport, Miss. terminal) - Have a safe one Steve.
Steve / W5BIB - (OTR 1977-2009)
Love the deer that turned into horses that then turned out to be cows. Love your narration. Another great video.
New subscriber. Love the cab overs I'm 47 and my uncle drove one back in the 80's. When he was in town he always take me for a ride in it. Brings back alot of memories. Stay safe out there.
We got the police called on our wrecker for going out to pick up a truck stuck in limp mode at loves because our preferred service wasn't on their list of approved towing companies. Guess who isn't buying fuel from loves anymore?
Amen!! Drove a International 4070A Cab over with 10 speed fuller road ranger!! Powered by 318 Detroit 2cycle Diesel engine
17:55 Swift is stepping their game up wrecking parked trucks! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I’m surprised shaq wasn’t over there taking parts off of it
@@Dana-nv4ej Lol, nobody has apparently noticed it yet. It still had the airlines and pigtail.
👍thanks for your hard work and sharing your day 👍🤔WA I know of a small truck stop owned by a BC trucking company brother that is selling fuel to BC trucks crossing the border for less tax than at BC fuel stations. They work on their trucks in the lot .
I once had a friend like you!! He taught me how to live and drive trucks!! We were old school!! We both loved cab over's
My dad always drove cabovers, he had those classics they just seem faster than hoods, must be that high up tower power feeling, that lowboy is a great looking setup with all cameras
those roads look more like a whoop section at a supercross race... same thing here in west michigan... stay safe
Steve definitely thinking about the army truck bet 100%!!! See ya at the show oh boy.
the thing i like most about the APU you installed. is it uses the trucks coolant system. meaning you have atleast a warm truck whenever you goto "cold start" it.
Last time I was at a loves
Most of the trucks looked like wrecks IE Volvo/ Freightliner
A genuine "Freightshaker". As that spun the freight was shook!
Thx for a few laughs.
Don't know what part of US you are , but landscape is very similar to the pampa here in Argentina.
Indiana. (mid-west USA), indeed a pampa-like landscape.
hey you need to check out that speedway restaurant they have real good food in there exit 115 on 70
I drove a White Freightliner cabover in the 70's and 80's, loved that old truck. Times sure have changed, and not really for the better.
Orwell is a class act. Enjoy the videos.
You going to do flappers on those stacks? Would be such a sick cherry on top. Love Orwell, man. Such a beast!
Some day I’ll catch you rolling through the 90/43 interchange. I would love to point out Orwell to my boys.
Love seeing cab overs on the road, like you said, all the trucks are plastic and look the same. Now imagine that only in a private service yard, drivers like that love to do what ever they want in the middle of our yard. We tell them no and they get all pissy.
My home town, Janesville, Wisc. I know right where your going.
i JUST WANTED to say thanks for the very fast service on delivering the tee shirt I ordered It showed up in about a week it is for my grandson to ware it the I 75 truck show in Florida at the end of the month great looking tee. we are going as a family.
The wreck at the truckstop has probably been dropped by a local wrecker. So another wrecker can take it further away where the repair may be cheaper even with the wrecker bill. 😅
That truck has class.
@22:00 I KNEW YOU WERE GOING TO SAY ABOUT THE SHOES 🤣🤣🤣🤣 CAUSE I WAS THINKING THE SAME THING IF THEY WERE WEARING SLIPPERS .
Nice relaxing video FSC. Boy I get the calling when I watch your videos. But at 70 not sure if that’s a good thing. Boy I still wanna go. Yup Orwell been a good truck to you. But then your looking after Orwell. Many miles left in her yet. You seem to get looked after pretty good where you are. Not much sitting around and every once in awhile you dead head home. But then your doing a great job for them. No body cares anymore if there blocking anyone. It’s all about me. How the industry, drivers, companies and what laws are now unforced has changed tremendously. Attitude towards trucks on the road has changed. It’s so negative now. I can still dream. Anywho FSC another fine video. Have yourself a great and a safe day. Happy trails and happy motoring. For fun in the next video break out some Polka music.
Good video Steve love Orwell stay safe out there
Found a abandoned truck in new Jersey last week, from a bankrupt company from California. People been stripping parts of if it. Flying j Carneys point. Tractor and trailer in different spots. Flying j had no idea. Been there nearly a year.
Yup, he's doing something, anything BUT a Pre Trip Inspection!
I think we all prefer the older style trucks seeing a cabover still in daily use in 2023 is great to see newer trucks look horrible no style or design just all about aerodynamics
Oh dear, an old Army semi? What kind of mad idea are you thinking about?
Anyway, this bucket truck the last you carry before the MATS event? 'Cause some of those YT truckers are showing up in Louisville.
Have a good time at the Truck show Steve, hope you get plenty of visitors?
Great job as always, thanks for sharing.
He was probably shut down and told to park it by the DOT, so he called his brother for the other set of numbers.
Maybe a stolen truck and have to hide the real identification!
@@bobh6728 I’m agreeing with you on that 100%
Looks like something gentry would buy
I noticed the wrecked truck had a making of the date of 8/22/22 (?) so I suspect it may have been involved in a fatal or serious injury accident and held for investigation, evidence in a case, or there is a dispute as to who responsible or owns it. Still that shouldn't be at a truck stop. As to the driver parked in front of you doing the name change as to who working for, at least they were not blocking the fuel aisle 😁 a pet peeve of many truckers. Still they should have gone to another part of the lot so not blocking the lane, or making trucks turn wide around them.
There may not be an impoundment yard in that area, and whoever towed it might be out of room.
That's how it's sometimes done in Indiana, and you can bet that the truckstop is getting paid for that spot.
Just think about the possibilities with the old military truck Steve 😁😁😁
This is Jesse here the other comment is my wife. I see allot of wrecked Semi's abandoned at Truck Stop's or Weigh Station's so the truck that's damaged the trucking company that own's the wrecked truck. Can make arrangments to come and tow it or pay a towing company to tow it to there location.
Why the heck would they be changing the truck company sticker in the parking lot like that, with a load on it?
Weeeeeird, indeed...
Something strange about those two. They looked foreign.
Maybe that's the Freightliner driver, back on the road. Just a thought...
I used to carry goods an necessitys to tape trip lease placards on the the door if I felt like it back in the 70 most time we road without placards it was just something for the DOT to , rss with ya log book.
Safe roads always trucker 👍
He,s reading the book on how to drive a truck
Hey Steve do you have any advice you would like to share for an almost 10 year company driver looking to get a cabover and put it to work? Cabovers have always been my dream and I love everytime you drop new videos. I only have experience so far with dry van and reefer and I am not sure if there would be money to be earned there to offset the cost of the lower fuel economy of driving a "brick" so to speak. I just came across a 1985 Pete 362 I am going to call on. It has a 350 Big Cam Cummins and a 13 speed.
Like your kit on the head (pain ) rack , you must all sorts hidden in there ,
have you done a service on the green leprechaun APU ? show us please how she doing .
Hey Steve, we need an audio of Orwell taking off, running, jakes, and such for a home time sleep track. 😂🤣
That's probably a new driver in that flatbed and that was probably his training and orientation there while he swaped his signs. Lol, but more like saf.
Heading down from Michigan this morning to meet you !
Nice!...u don't see the cab overs anymore
That cascadia has been jackknifed something fierce.
Them guys looking like members of the tracksuit Mafia 😂😂
Great stuff. Love what you do. It seems to me that Volvo is infiltrating the industry. I love to see the old trucks.
Volvo is a throwaway truck, just like Freightliner and International. I wouldn't own any of the three.
Wow a good run
The guy with the new signs is probably grabbing the dollar a mile loads.
That’s a shaq is a huge operation with 1 truck and 1 operator... lol
Love your truck exactly the same truck I had and drove yrs ago.i pulled a Atrain with it hauling grain.mostly short hauls.
Watching you i almost feel I'm back behind the wheel.awsome
Maybe that's their new truck. 🤣 (vs. 19:52)
22:45 Clearly headed for I-40. 😂
28:27 Oh, come on! A drivetrain cam on the vehicle that's idle on the trailer??
Kind of a interesting video.Grew up next to hwy 99 in central Ca. as a kid.Trucks always interested me.
I sat here looking at that truck with the coil on the flatbed. I could not believe anyone would let him out of the yard with that load! Steel hauling is an incredibly dangerous job as it is. To load the coil suicide and use a single strap, over a trap, over the top of the coil is just asking to become a statistic. I was a steel hauler for quite a few years. I have the broken ribs and other bones to prove it. I have a list of friends who are no longer with us to probe it. I am so worried for that guy in this video. Someone really needs to have a long training session with him.
Hey Steve! Have done any figuring if your getting better milage now that Orwell is breathing better?
I believe the tow truck driver had no place to put the semi and had to make a last minute choice. He knowingly put the semi where it is.
There may not be an impoundment yard in that area, or one big enough for a semi. That truckstop is most definitely getting paid for that spot.
I won’t ever park there at the Knightstown, IN Loves ever again! They don’t have any damn cameras when I asked if I could have footage cause someone hit my truck! They said it don’t work
I like your old-school Peterbilt truck. It is awesome. I watch your videos all the time
I see some truckers that have youtube channels who get their trucks and trailers washed every other week. Costs them over $100 a pop and sometimes they have to wait in line to get it done.
I mean no offense to anyone, and to each his own, and yes, they feed money back into the trucking economy by keeping money flowing to the truck wash stations, but all I can say is that I don't see getting a truck washed on the regular basis as being economically sound. Clean, dirty, the rig gets the job done and that's what matters.
Perhaps someone will argue that a clean truck gets better fuel mileage due to less wind drag over the surface. 😊😊
To some it's the image they're trying to portray: clean truck, clean driver, better driver.
I'd agree that washing depends more on if you're a gravel train and hauling dirty loads or running on salted roads during winter. There is something to be said about seeing a dirty girl looking spiffy and shiny though. 😁
I could see the washes to get rid of salt. That stuff finds corners to hide, next thing you know the frame of your trucks looks like Steves trailer fenders.🤣
@@danielseelye6005 I totally agree with washing off any road salt.. Corrosion.
@@brianadams429 Yes, definitely want to wash off road salt and asap.
A clean truck gets better fuel mileage due to less weight. More waiting, more fuel consumed. Sarcasm intended.
Great video Steve.
I bet Orwell has seen some craziness through the years. Good times
Listening to it wind out I sure do miss it some days.
I was changing the name on the door even legal call the other permits and document has to be changed to match what's on the door at least I think it does crazy
I have nothing left to live for!! Watching you drive makes me feel human again
You have plenty to live for. We all got our ups and downs. Got to stay positive.
Cheers Steve safe travels 👍 😀 I wish they bring back cabovers
That recked truck looks like it may have jack knifed before it was probably towed there.
Steve I'd hate to see what happens at night there at the Love's truck stop it could get really strange!!!!!😮😮
I've run the race with rusty Wallace experience thing there. That place is awesome! Wish I would have known you were coming to to NC would love to meet you some time
You do great videos ,some. People get jealous when someone discovers a niche , also how does a Hanover driver do a pre / post trip , under hood thx
That crashed truck has been there for a long time in that parking lot. I saw it in someone elses video weeks ago, might even have been one of yours.
It was his, but I'm not going to spend the time looking for it.
@@Mike44460 It was a short, almost live when this video was shot.
And Imagine the driver of the wrecked rig comes out of Luv's with a sandwich and a soda in hand and drives off like nothing was wrong...
Well fortunately for the rest of us he won't get far with a steer tire off the rim.
Less than 18 hours 2 #MATS See you there.
i did not see chains either
That loves has always been a 3 ring cirdus
Hoping for at least a TH-cam Short on how GreenAPU is featuring the first-ever cabover install on Orwell in its booth display. You didn't happen to bring a couple of FSC t-shirts for the booth babes, did you?
