Seeing the truck in this video takes me back. The truck in the video is just a bit older than me but is a spitting image of an old KW my grandfather owned and was one of my all-time favorite trucks. The Cat 3408 was the king of the road back in it's day and gave the meaning of "if it ain't a Cat, it's a dog"... just hope there is a fuel station at the top of the hill as if you're lucky 3.5 mpg with a tail wind was tops for fuel mileage. My second favorite was a 68 Mack that we transplanted a 2 stroke Detroit 8V92 into, it would get a tad over 4 mpg.
