You should do Mack Trucks next? Mack has a long history of trucks dating from the early 1900's.

When truckers read the word Sleeper : I can finally take a rest.
When car-guys read the word Sleeper : Das cool.

[d.s.]

My dad has been a trucker for over 3 years now. From Canada to Cali and Texas. This video makes me happy

[dirttrackin]

It would be cool if you done all semi trucks like a series I'd love that

[LordAnestis]

Can you guys here on Donut put an AC in the room for James?

[sameer]

We want up to speed on "DETROT DIESEL" and "MACK"

[twoone]

he wasn’t lying, I am actually “logging”😏

[AXILAS]

I was actually wiping my ass when he said "you are pooping". Technically I wasn't pooping at that point, but your statistics are pretty much right.

[nickkalil]

As a current design engineer for Peterbilt I would like to say great job at going through our awesome history! Love your videos, keep it up!
