Ciao Steve. It's not a long nose but it's a pretty truck and WOW (Cummins, auto trans, smart wheel) what a price deal! The truck is spec'd perfect. I bet it's really fuel efficient. I was super surprised when you said it came with a Cummins. I expected a PACCAR 13 liter at that price.
So this is under $148/k out the door and one ton dually Ford, Dodge, and Chevy pick ups can go for $90/k? Makes this 579 look like the best deal to tow that 5th wheel camper. TMC sets up their company trucks just like this. They sell them after 4-5 years with 600,000 miles for $58/k. Peterbilt Steve has the deals that is for sure. Nice ride for the money.
@@bellboy4074 Tow your camper all over America and put 20,000 or 30,000 miles on the truck. After 5-6 years or longer, sell the truck for $120,000.00 or even $110,000.00 and your money ahead. Buy a pick up for $90/k, put 30,000 miles on it in 5-6 years or longer and sell it for $35,000.00 if your lucky. Just a thought.
Hey Steve I'm looking for something like this luv all the chrome and the smoke stacks are 🔥 actually the hole dang truck is badass, do they come with more horse power and were can I find something similar to this
Quite a nice rig! Non-performance package with automatic...I would really like to check that one out. I’ve never driven an automatic rig. My oldest brother had one in a Pete 362 and loved it! 🥰 I like the double bunk! He wishes he still had that truck!
Nice looking 579. Nice to finally see a 579 with the extra gauges instead of the navigation. One question. Are the driver’s side stacks on the 579 functional or nonfunctional? I know on the Kenworth T880’s and T680’s the driver’s side stack is nonfunctional.
STEVE ,if you wanted to boot it up to a 605 is there any way to get 2050 torque out of it ,I ask because I don't know especially since it's auto?I know the driveline would probably need replaced?
I love it , CUMMINS YES, not a fan of automatic but if it pull's good at 1850 can't be all bad , can you that same truck in a 10 speed ? Approx how much $$$
Steve We are currently running International Lonestar's spec'ed with the EPU system, we really like them. Is Peterbilt going to offer some sort of EPU system in the future like the KIM system Kenowrth has out?
Porter Productions yes you’ll have a extra 4 batteries for the EPU I really like mine very low maintenance. No way I would have another truck without one. You just can’t afford to idle these newer trucks with emissions System
Roger1 333 🇺🇸At the 3:25 ratio, the automatic wouldn’t be bad. My oldest brother had an auto in a Pete 352 and loved it! He drove from Ohio to Colorado, Arizona, Texas and back several times. He regrets selling that truck to this day.
@@the.porter.productions yes sir. I had serious problems with a 2016 Cascadia with a dt 12 autoshift in a company truck that would kick out of gear constantly. I'm not talking down on autoshifts, just my experience wasn't great
Peterbilt Steve please tell us what they are hauling. So we can go there. I know rates for frack sand, oil , propane, reefer, dry van and flat bed are all in the toilet to the point you will be stacked up with repos in the next two months.
You tell em guys.. If this junk was worth buying they wouldnt be on social media trying to sell it.. 2020 pile of emmission controlled junk.. Over priced and over regulated.. Freight is in the tank . You would have to be a fool to buy this junk now days.
@tater tot Blame right its nothing but junk. They stay in the shop more than on the road. An old A model or 359 will make more money at lot less cost and no breakdowns. This crap they building is a complete joke.. Computers have no place on trucks .. Rebuild the old trucks or just quit..
I'm looking for a heck of a deal but my credit isn't 😥. What's crazy is I could pay for it easy. I'm paying $2,300 a month for the 2016 lease truck i have right now. Consequences of bad decisions 😐
@@SteveCarbone payments isn't the problem it's my credit. Bad decisions and yes a little bad luck have tanked it. If I had good enough credit for a zero down that truck would have been bought last week
Discounting that truck means a trade in will also be expected to be discounted on your end . This is how the industry works. New trucks lose values ? Don’t worry, your used truck will plummet. New manufacturers offering interest rebates to buy a new truck? Used trucks will fall like a truck coming out the back of a 747...
I'm glad you know it all, thank you for the lesson. My simple minded reasoning behind the discount is A: I have too many 579's. B: We are the nations #1 location for 389's so we probably need to stick to our core audience. C: Maybe I can get someone out of a rig they really dont like and sell it to a first time buyer that will love it. Peterbilt never offer incentives so your statement in that area was incorrect. PACCAR financial will occasionally offer something like the 90 days no payments they have now, but never a rate better 5.5 which is unicorn rare. If this virus bankrupts companies and owner operators, bet your behind round hood used truck values will crash. That is how supply and demand works, just like freight.
If frieght wasn't what it is right now this is truck I want. But I'm kind of scared to trade my truck in right now for a bigger payment or anything else. Man I feel like I might kick myself later for not doing it.
@@SteveCarbone 50k I meant it's a nice truck but in times like this there's no fright no rate's so I guess trucks will just sit there and know one will buy them
@@electroniccheeks I wouldn't. Only because I'm old tired and disabled and although I miss the truck I don't miss the crap that comes along with it! I still hope to see the day drivers shut it down for a few weeks to improve the business and make people respect the drivers. As far as the ugly truck with the good price I'd throw on one of them glorified graphics packages to show it off.
This truck is underrated. It’s a money maker and still has class.
Another awesome truck and great color thanks for the awesome description
Any time!
Got to love it when he gos into salesman mode!
I mean you really do if you think about it....

Very nice truck. Wish it had discs in the back. Never will understand why people so love the antique 389
Im one of those people, just iconic America is what I see in a 389....
Peterbilt Steve yeah, like a model T
i like the hoods but i like money and a 579 will get almost 8mpg all the the time
It's nice, but do you stock anything that's in the 230 to 240 inch wheel base?
The price on this thing reminds me how cheated I got on my truck
Truly sorry to hear that but it is discounted 12k
@@SteveCarbone Sounds like a great deal to me
Nice unit for the right owner operator. Nice specs for the right run. Priced right.
Agreed!
Steve can you take us along for a test drive on a auto trans some day?
Will do
You can take a look at the deal I signed for this used Volvo and see if you can take it in for this truck.
Wait, so you're saying that there isn't enough space to stand up in the 78 inch raised-roof 389 (I'm 6'2" btw)?
I like the color, you don’t see to many like that.
true

if you dont do alot of mountains and run legal weight loads you dont need the performance series x15

Nice looking 579. Nice to finally see a 579 with the extra gauges instead of the navigation. One question. Are the driver’s side stacks on the 579 functional or nonfunctional? I know on the Kenworth T880’s and T680’s the driver’s side stack is nonfunctional.
You right i drive a kw900 and same the left exhaust is just for the look basically cause just the right one work
Same, aesthetic only just like a 389 short hood or a W900 short hood.
Nice ride and another great video. What are the rear gears in this one with that 12 speed.
3.25 the final drive ratio is very similar to a 13 speed or 18 speed
Damn good deal on this truck. I bet all of us would fight over it if the freight wasn’t so bad right now.
thanks
Id get it right now if i could
Why is this peterbuilt 145k, when other brand new ones I see, cost 170k+?
She is a beauty OMG !!!
Thanks!
that's boy for sure
Nice bumper!
Thanks! 👍
Nice truck man. Good to see some different other than 389s
Thanks 👍
Why doesn't 359 & 567 come with true dual exhaust
Very nice unit
I think so too!
Super nice truck 👍😁
Thanks 👍
STEVE ,if you wanted to boot it up to a 605 is there any way to get 2050 torque out of it ,I ask because I don't know especially since it's auto?I know the driveline would probably need replaced?
That transmission is not rated for 2050
Does the 567 come in this color?
Actually has exhaust stacks like a REAL truck suppose too!
thanks

Cheers folks
We do from time to time

I dont know what EPU or KIM systems are so I am going to say no
Peterbilt Steve I think he meant APU, KIM is Kenwoths battery APU system to run AC for 12 hours without starting the truck
Trip Triplett Petes have the SmartAir system which is the same as KW’s KIM.
Trip Triplett 🇺🇸The EPUs are electric power unit...battery backup! How well do they work?

I would like to step into one like this
Steve could you email me the spec sheet on this truck to look at if you still have it ?
She is very beautiful
Thank you
Great alternative
Thanks
Is this the 80"for sure ?.... It looks just like the 72" Ultra 🤔🤔
Nice
Thanks
Hate that steering wheel controls u can’t put a custom steering wheeel in it
You actually can, you just loose the functionality of the buttons.
Yeah but u got to have the cruise on the dash mine doesn’t 🤦🏻♂️
You can
Piterbilt Steve did you only sell new trucks or you have used one too ?
I have used also
Do you have another one like this for sale?
It's a beautiful truck but I'm not completely sold on the autoshifts. I prefer a manual over a automated manual
