years ago I worked on a nuclear power plant and was in charge of hauling steel from the laydown yard to the job site. Strictly off road. We had an old 1953 international with a 250 Cummins. We would put as much as 140 thousand pounds of steel on the trailer and the old truck would pull it like it wasn't back there. Never got out of third gear. Fun hauling.
Same. We used to drive to my uncles and stop at a gas station/restaurant on a very steep part of the mountain. It was next to an a large highway so I’d hear all the jakes. No idea what they were at the time, but I loved them.
The 444 Cummins was such an underrated engine because of the poor cooling and injection systems. But I gotta say, if you keep them tuned right, they run and sound just as good as a red-top N14 or the like. Killer sound.
MichaelTJD60 They were an important step on the way to the Redtop!444 was a tinkerer's wet dream! If you were one of those guys who love to tune on something every weekend these things were unbeatable! Important member of the 885 family!
Totally flawless job of driving. Much precision. Boston IN. area grain haulers of much Quality. Thank you Mr. Richard Pruitt. Totalmente impecável trabalho de condução. Muito precisão. Na área de Boston. grãos transportadores de muita qualidade. Obrigado Sr Richard Pruitt.
I like Peterbilt just 379 and 389 models. And I like this particular Cummins engine! I play American Truck Simulator just on Peterbilt and have been looking for an engine that I would like in sound for a long time. At first I played on the engine, which was installed directly in the game itself. It was a Cat C15 (625 horsepower). But then I found the Cummins 444 KRM engine thanks to mods.
i like the way you downshift, i think thats a good way to downshift, i have a cummins big cam 400 turnec up to 500hp, in my Peterbuilt 359 will duel 6inch straight pipes my jake are very loud on third stage but i love it Cummins for life.

@@jordanparisian5596 Accept PACCAR your truck industry is owned by European companies. You may ask yourself why. And slowly more and more of you will love the DAF engine (Dutch) which is renamed to PACCAR. You need to get accustomed to big power by low rpm as well a smooth and silence engine.
Very awesome....This I think was one the the best truck cab ride videos I have ever seen...Very well done whoever was driving...Nicely done on the shifting and braking.....Thanx for sharing this!!!! =)
This beautiful sounding engine has some of the best qualities of the 2 stroke Detroit and the big inline Cat (just not as low of a rumble). Cummins was making some really great engines when they produced the Big Cam 400, the 444 and the N14/N14+. Once the EGR engines came along...not so much.
They were a great running old 855 after you converted them from low-flow you can drag that load and hundred degree heat all day long and never break 175
That ol Cummins is on the money most of them had a problem about the rpm's not wanting to fall back down to make smooth soft shift they seemed to be pulling air and would just makeyou would have to wait to float the Transmisson, thats a fine sounding com - a - long and in their time was a fine Engine
My dad had Inter transtar4670 with a 444 in it ,only problem was the aussie roads kept stuffing the radiator mounts.other wise a buitiful truck in its time,we also had slines with 525 s in them ,now they were great trucks.cummins man .
Question: When the driver starts to slow down for the stop, I can hear the jakes come on strong and loud for a split second, but then go quiet, almost as if the jakes weren't on at all. Same thing appears to happen on every downshift leading to the stop... anyone know why the jakes aren't super loud the entire time the truck is slowing (except when the driver is revving up for the next downshift)?
Hey bud, It can either 1: Simply be on the first or second stage of the Jake. Or #2: Plain and simple he's got fat stack straight pipes and the shifting down "from lower RPM to *all of a sudden higher* causes a huge bubble of exhaust basically. Which multiplies the sound and amount coming out. Hope this helped.
go on my video to see me testing out my Jake brake, ill post more videos when its completed my fuel pump is not responding to good ill be taking it out to get shimed and recalled for even more power i can get a easy extra 100hp out those PT Pumps thanks to a friend who knows how to turn any cummins into a monster, in the fucture i plan on upgrading the motor to put out 800hp but for now 500hp is good
But you can’t hurt a 237 or a 300+ Mack especially with #55,000 rears LOL talk about deep reduction gears you don’t see the parts of Kentucky I saw. Not from the interstate, I went places in a 75 DM 800 Mack you wouldn’t think a dirt bike would go
Deborah chesser haha Mack’s are literally unkillable. They must be related to Toyota because they have overbuilt drivetrains and underpowered engines overbuilt as well lol
Justin Martin hot in summer cold in winter beat your brains out but couldn’t get enough of ridin them coal buckets with my uncles n cousins and hearing that sound those were good days
Yea, I’m a truck mechanic by trade, and being in an agricultural community lets me see a lot of these beasts. The old off set cab dm is sweet, it has a one of a kind approach you can’t miss em. Mack’s new heavy truck chassis are still the good stuff, camelback suspension, heavy overbuilt components, etc. But sadly, the engine took a severe blow when Volvo was thrown in the mix, it just isn’t the same bullet proof monster they used to be.
+BlueLivesMatterPA My thoughts exactly! Wish my international sounded like that, certainly beats what it sounds like now. although the second-gen maxxforce engines have pretty good torque and decent power.
Love the way he downshifts a real driver who is operating his equipment with precision
I'm a fan of CAT's, but holy heck this thing sounds monsterous! Pure heaven to the ears.

Nice control of the accelerator keeping it within the 2000rpm range. You are a very good driver who knows what he’s doing.
I’ve never heard a 444 run before, man that engine sounds sweet.
Man I love this sound. As a kid I used to stare as semis would roll past our house. That turbo whistle with the deep roar is so nestalgic

Symphony to my ears ..... only CUMMINS ...... cheers ..
mco zpda ..agreed
This is the best sounding Cummins I have ever heard. Great video
Love that sound of that engine
Well, I’m a caterpillar guy but this 444 left me really impressed
Ji
Its like the mechanical n14 Cummins. Just not as powerful

"Music to my ears" Cummins 444 seems pretty Checkered
The whir of the gears once you get into high range... I love the music.
Love that sound of that Pete keep going
Gotta say i dont really like cummins THAT much, but this sounds like heaven
damn good sound nothing like a cummins brotha
Amazing engine sound and Jake puuurrrrrrrrrrr.....
😌 Such sweet beautiful music......
That 444 Cummins is a bad ass engine sounds mean especially in a peterbilt
Turn on this video with bluetooth on a good speaker.. and you will get the walls rattling. Music to my ears!!!!!!
beautiful sound great video keep trucking
I just finished ordering a HT4C turbo for my Cummins big cam, I can't wait to see how it will sound😁😁😁
Love the long stroke gargle😫😫😫 855s all day
What type turbo are you using in this 444? Is it a Holset HT4C original turbo?
They just dont make motors Awesome like this any more, iam glad i rebulid my Cummins 855
Lol from a time that all engines were good cat cummins and detriot
I still would take a cat but dang that thing sound great
Watching my cousin work the twin sticks small motor equals a million shifts by the time you get off the mountain
I love Cummins engines 444 has the best sound good engine
Badass sounding cummins sounds good
Sweet music to my ears
Thanks!
I still love the 8v71. But this was cool.
Sounds fantastic
man what a sound :)
I didn't know that the 444 Cummins sounded like a c15 cat... very interesting...very different from a n14
Yeah. Sure did a great job of keeping foot into it.
is this the 444XT? sounds like you have the Eaton 13sp o.d. .
great sounding rig.
Sounds gorgeous
He's getting it !
Nice song ♥
OMG BEST 379
444's are sweet man.
Think my equilibrium is off after watching that
Do you still have this truck?
Can some one please what type turbo is on this Cummins 444?
What Turbo is on this Awesome sounding 444?
Really enjoyed this,thank you for up loading it!!
Just bought a 89 379 tonight with a 444
Porn to my ears brother! Sounds hard out..Be great listening to that cranking all day!
Awesome
Hot machine!
That was a heavy load based on how many gears it took to get to speed... OR maybe I'm just ignorant..

Same thing appears to happen on every downshift leading to the stop... anyone know why the jakes aren't super loud the entire time the truck is slowing (except when the driver is revving up for the next downshift)?
believe it's cause he's letting the trucks tach drop low so the jake brake gets lower and quiet.
It's probably the camera self adjusting the sound so it's not louder than is should be, because I've never heard a jake do that either,
Hey bud, It can either 1: Simply be on the first or second stage of the Jake. Or #2: Plain and simple he's got fat stack straight pipes and the shifting down "from lower RPM to *all of a sudden higher* causes a huge bubble of exhaust basically. Which multiplies the sound and amount coming out.
Hope this helped.
MontageGaming Inc Yes the jake brake goes quiet because of the rpm. it gets quiet around 900 rpm
TheTruckerSmith I knew it was. my dad drove for over 40 years. thanks
Is this truck still around still hauling corn
Are the 444 as good as the cummins 400?
Same engine
This is awsome
Sounds for american truck simulator
Put a dual line on open the injectors up some and fuel pressure you got 700hp easy
Nothin beats a good ol cummins
go on my video to see me testing out my Jake brake, ill post more videos when its completed my fuel pump is not responding to good ill be taking it out to get shimed and recalled for even more power i can get a easy extra 100hp out those PT Pumps thanks to a friend who knows how to turn any cummins into a monster, in the fucture i plan on upgrading the motor to put out 800hp but for now 500hp is good
What trans in that truck ?
Great Vid. Thank you for uploading!!!
nice how heavy was this load?
Good sound
What transmission is this 10, 13, 15, 16 or 18 speed?
The sound of this video was used in a American Truck Simulator mod.
cummins in concert sound!

Kapitän Germany 😂😂😂 same here bro, only 60 series is the best detroit
Jazzy jas Exactly, 60 series is the only good sounding one. Sounds like a real diesel. Not a super up weed eater like the 2 strokes.

How much litres is this engine?
14 Litres
Well my love. Slim shady he says Kamikaze.? A. Shovelhead
Ill stick to my 400 big cam 111. A generation before the 444, made for simpletons like me to work on lol
nice
Gotta have 5in straight pipes!!!! Eargasm🥴
Sounds similar to the duel truck
how many gears does this thing have?
I drive N 14 BEST !
Good G*d! Killer sound.
