    Awesome ride Sir.
    As a Vet, I thank you for your service.
    I was born in a different time.
    Too young for Nam but too old for Desert Storm.
    I still served as did my Father and my younger Brother.
    None of us regret a minute of it.
    Thank you for your service.

    @JohnSmith-cf4gn 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I started out in cabovers in 1980. I have always preferred cabovers. They are more fun to drive and you can look down on conventionals even. Driving a cabover at night for the first time is interesting, it really looks different and you have to adjust to it.

    3.73 rears!? That truck definitely has a high top speed! Probably triple digit capable. It's almost unheard of for those rear ends in a new truck.

    • @matthewkabanuk443
      @matthewkabanuk443 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @relaxing_white_noises_by_j1980 Running 3.73/3.70s or 3.90s are really great. You can run at speed limits in direct with your 13 speed when loaded without stressing the transmission the least. Then when empty, you can shift up into the overdrive and fly like the wind. 3.55s have been rather legendary regarding “triple digit speeds”. Couple trucks back in the day had them factory but they were quite rare. Often the taller gears require more hp if you’re trying to sling steeper overdrive gears through it. Fleets in the late 70s would order 3.70 rears so they could tie it with a 9 or 10 speed direct drive transmission (non-overdrive) and a 1600 or 1800 rpm capped fuel sipping diesel while still maintaining speed limits. The early 90s brought the availability of 3.36 rears; quite steep but most were tied to a direct drive transmission.

    I never understood why Ford had the windshield wipers reversed.

    • @erikbunty2016
      @erikbunty2016 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      For these semis and some medium duty one, too. I don't know. When they redesigned it, though, I think in the late 90s or early 2000s, still under the Ford brand before they became Sterling, the wipers were made like all the other Fords at the time.
