They filmed that movie just west of Wilmington, NC on highway 74. The movie set was an old truck stop that was right next to the Estes Trucking Terminal. Actually...it was just west of Leland, NC on 74.
Getting a shot of that truck was awesome. Hearing that ol 8V-71 scream just made it top notch! In a funny way, it’s like MATS allowed you to bridge what this channel used to be, with the car meets, and trucking. Now it’s just on a bigger scale 🤘🏻
Thank you so much for this video. I am 40, I really watched this movie a million times. Definitely a favorite and brought the kid out in me just watching this.
I'm stuck in the Dakotas, but by the magic of you tube, haven't missed a MATS in 3 yrs. Many different experiences with many different you tubers. But yours was the best so far this year. Real interactions with so many. Thanks for the experiences Steeve!!👍👍
Awesome...my Uncle had a hand in that Maximum Overdrive...he played with special effect and drove wardrobe truck. Filmed in my Dad's home town Wilmington NC. Credit is under Transportation Ricky Barefoot.
That sound is insane man. That is a beast wanting to run the road and everything else down. God that sound. I did love to see this truck run at night, eye glowing red to scare the drivers on the road LoL
Cool seeing that! You just can't beat the sound of a 2-stroke Detroit! It would have also been cool if there was the Blue Mule from White Line Fever, The Rubber Duck's Mack from Convoy and of course my favorite, Sonny's green KW from Movin On! All of which are still around, I believe.
Also don't forget the Knight Ind. truck that was used to haul KITT in Knight Rider. A Knight Rider TV show history buff is rebuilding both the truck and the trailer so he can use both to haul his KITT.
Over all the only thing about that goblin head is that the jaw line is not connected with the lower bumper... but every thing else is on point. Loved this tractor since day 1... here comes another load of joy delivering toys.
I love that 77 white western star goblin happy toyz truck maximum overdrive is one of my favorite movies and to see the replica truck makes me so happy
Hey Steve that was a great video !! Thanks a million !! On the way out I kept thinking is he running or is he riding on the back of a pickup ! The faster it got the more I thought he's got to be riding in or on some kind of vehicle or scooter ! I thought no one can run that fast let alone hold a cammera half that steady. and video record behind their self !! Then finally I heard your shoes plopping on the pavement ! I'm impressed buddy thanks a lot !!!
My wife is a big Steven King fan she just about lost it when she saw that truck .I told her it was at the truck show and she got all over me because we didn't get to see it .I had to tell her it wasn't in the area of the show but the parking lot
That Green Goblin w900 from maximum overdrive is By far the coolest thing I've seen on TH-cam in a long time, wish someone would do a replica in Australia of it but i don't mind coming to the states to just see it. That Screaming Two stroke Detroit is a man's wet Dream. What a beauty!!
I love this truck this was my favorite movie growing up maximum over drive if I could build one truck it would be the goblin truck for sure it's pretty cool someone had the Time and funds to build incredible truck it looks incredible they did a really cool job on it love it
I was hoping the popping Goblin jack in the box would be in the sleeper and the clown symbols would be on the side of the trailer. Still, what an awesome sight to see the Goblin truck!
@@fsctrucking ah ok, well with movies you never know whats real and whats not. So they destroyed it for real then ok. Hey while you’re here lol, i seem to remember a big metal grill guard on the truck. Am I remembering that right?
That Maximum Overdrive semi is cool. I can only imagine what it cost to get that green goblin face made or to purchase if its the original. Super glad you shared it, I love that movie. I wonder if it installs fear in any truck stop owners when they see it pull in lol.
MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE Man oh man that movie is fantastic . AC/DC, screaming V8 Detroit, old iron with a mind of their own, a cold 6 pack of Budweiser beside me with one in my hand… 🤘🏼🤘🏼 HELLS BELLS!! That green goblin happy toyz truck is legendary. I have seen it before and would love to drive it badassly, and charge at people and things… lol no 😆 Cool shit brother!
Hey good morning I was looking on happy toy truck.. it will be interesting to see just how he checks coolant on oil level...with that green thing on the wood😂😂😂😂😂
Steve - I think we're all ready for you to get back out on the road and do some real trucking!!! BTW - Now you've got me started looking for flat-topped smoke stacks (-:
How does he see
It's not as bad as you think. I may have been behind the wheel....
He can see good. I rode in it before. The view is the same way I see driving my KW.
Imagine driving from the sleeper useing 80's old-school video screens.

You sure it's not a 12 - 71 ? Our old General has a 8 - 92 ,was a MILK hauling tractor !
it is a 12-71
Careful Steve, Orwell might start feeling jealous.😅
You got that right!😉
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thank you so much for this video. I am 40, I really watched this movie a million times. Definitely a favorite and brought the kid out in me just watching this.
Now that was a once in a lifetime experience! That was the cherry on top of the truck show!! God bless.
Not for me...I've already seen it several times...Nate is in my home town of Joplin,Mo
I'm stuck in the Dakotas, but by the magic of you tube, haven't missed a MATS in 3 yrs. Many different experiences with many different you tubers. But yours was the best so far this year. Real interactions with so many. Thanks for the experiences Steeve!!👍👍
Same here lol. And I’m thankful people video it.
Nevermind I hear it running!!! That's the sweetest sound....
That sound is intoxicating! Takes me back to my childhood watching Maximum Overdrive on VHS. Thanks for this video bro!
That Truck Is Great...Love It.. Thanks Steve.
Been some years since I watched Maximum Overdrive.....think I'll watch it again tonight!
That is same Tractor they used in Steel Cowboy with James Brolin & Rip Torn & Jennifer Warren & Pat Hingle & Strother Martin
Awesome...my Uncle had a hand in that Maximum Overdrive...he played with special effect and drove wardrobe truck. Filmed in my Dad's home town Wilmington NC. Credit is under Transportation Ricky Barefoot.

Does it make that sound due to a cam?
@@thanors2 It sounds like a 2 stroke detroit diesel and they idle like that when cold. This one seems to idle worse but I think that is intentional.
Man listen to that Detroit come alive..man you can't beat the sound of a old Detroit best sound in the world.
Impressive running Steve, two stroke sounded great 😊.
Great photography, thanks for sharing
Cool seeing that! You just can't beat the sound of a 2-stroke Detroit! It would have also been cool if there was the Blue Mule from White Line Fever, The Rubber Duck's Mack from Convoy and of course my favorite, Sonny's green KW from Movin On! All of which are still around, I believe.
Also don't forget the Knight Ind. truck that was used to haul KITT in Knight Rider. A Knight Rider TV show history buff is rebuilding both the truck and the trailer so he can use both to haul his KITT.
And he got the whole thing right all the way down to the trailmobile trailer !!! Sweeeeeet !
Over all the only thing about that goblin head is that the jaw line is not connected with the lower bumper... but every thing else is on point.
Loved this tractor since day 1... here comes another load of joy delivering toys.
Now I'm jealous! Can't wait for the next video of the ride along!!!
I love that 77 white western star goblin happy toyz truck maximum overdrive is one of my favorite movies and to see the replica truck makes me so happy
OMG! the greeen monster ! Ive seen the movie manytimes too 😄

Great video Steve that one of my all time Favorite Movie Maximum Overdrive Goblin Semi. Thanks for sharing can't wait to see when you go for a ride.
This video is priceless, thank you for taking me back to my childhood with that Steven King classic truck.

One of my favorite movies and started my love of 2 stroke Detroits. Thanks for the video!
Wow -- imagine seeing a truck like that coming up behind you in your review mirror!
In a few videos you will have your answer...
@@fsctrucking That will be exciting!
My wife is a big Steven King fan she just about lost it when she saw that truck .I told her it was at the truck show and she got all over me because we didn't get to see it .I had to tell her it wasn't in the area of the show but the parking lot
Awesome shot of it going thru the gears! Thanks for the extra effort.
Thanks Steve. Excellent video.

It's actually a 1977 White Western Star
Never knew that always thought it was a Kenworth but we have plenty of whites down under. so hopefully one day
Steve, that is awesome. That was one of my favorite movies as a child. Maximum Overdrive.
Thanks for that STEVE that was simply amazing driv,ah
I'm a pretty young guy so I never saw this movie growing up. When I got my CDL, my uncle sent me a link to Who Made Who with the truck clips.
I love this truck this was my favorite movie growing up maximum over drive if I could build one truck it would be the goblin truck for sure it's pretty cool someone had the Time and funds to build incredible truck it looks incredible they did a really cool job on it love it
Very Cool stuff, thumbnail looks cool.
Wow! Watching and hearing that truck drive away gave me the chills! Awesome video!
Talk about a serious lope 😳
For those of you who don't know, you can buy the 1:64 scale model of this truck. Made by DCP/First Gear.
That's what the woman on the ground was getting a picture of.
The mechanical symphony of an old Two Stroker. Music to my ears
Omg this is literally my favorite truck of all time!!! First saw this movie in 93 !
Awesome awesome work they're, I got lucky and got to see this movie being filmed in North Carolina
I was hoping the popping Goblin jack in the box would be in the sleeper and the clown symbols would be on the side of the trailer. Still, what an awesome sight to see the Goblin truck!
I grew up watching that movie too!! Still like to watch it sometimes!! Cool truck
I love to hear those old Detroit V8 engines. Brings back memories
Great video Steve good memories of the happy tots truck good to see your truck there as we
Damn Steve you run pretty fast. Hope you got out of there ok.
Stay safe.
We almost lost it haha😅, but genius!
Buy it Steve lol could be Orwells crazy little brother lol
My favorite movie all time. I even got the face tattooed on my arm.
Do the glow Red ?
The eyes are connected to the headlights, and yes, they glow red.
I didn’t think that truck was still around much less on the road. That’s wild.
It's a replica. The one in the movie was destroyed in the final scene.
@@fsctrucking ah ok, well with movies you never know whats real and whats not. So they destroyed it for real then ok. Hey while you’re here lol, i seem to remember a big metal grill guard on the truck. Am I remembering that right?
So wicked the truck that I loved to see in my nightmares as a kid
This is incredible. One of my favourite films!
Thought it was a drone and it’s just a fat man running 😂😂😂 great video
That Maximum Overdrive semi is cool. I can only imagine what it cost to get that green goblin face made or to purchase if its the original. Super glad you shared it, I love that movie. I wonder if it installs fear in any truck stop owners when they see it pull in lol.
I hope there's a two-stroke Detroit under the hood❤❤❤
Thanks for the video Steve that is bad ass wish it was there Friday when I was.
Maximum Overdrive what a crazy movie, but it's sure nice to see the old trucks on the road again
I always did like the 4800 Western Star. She ranks right up there with the autocar. When Trucking Was koool !😉
No doubt
VERY COOL
MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE
Man oh man that movie is fantastic .
AC/DC, screaming V8 Detroit, old iron with a mind of their own, a cold 6 pack of Budweiser beside me with one in my hand… 🤘🏼🤘🏼 HELLS BELLS!!
That green goblin happy toyz truck is legendary. I have seen it before and would love to drive it badassly, and charge at people and things… lol no 😆
Cool shit brother!

Good stuff Steve it looks like a 1990 with a Cat engine
I love that sound of the Maximum Overdrive Truck yelling
Looks like an old White Road Boss, the first truck I drove and learned on.
It's a Western Star 4800.
Nate still has it...I'm glad he didn't sell it...Yet
No. He sold it. I know the new owner.
@@fsctrucking 😳😳 That looked like Nate driving...I didn't realize he sold it
@@Highgear145 It was Nate driving on this video. There is another coming filmed the next day.
That’s so cool man I love that movie I remember watching it when I was a kid that’s awesome
Hey good morning I was looking on happy toy truck.. it will be interesting to see just how he checks coolant on oil level...with that green thing on the wood😂😂😂😂😂
Steve - I think we're all ready for you to get back out on the road and do some real trucking!!! BTW - Now you've got me started looking for flat-topped smoke stacks (-:
