CaptainCrutch Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Saw this one myself, supposedly the story is the guy filming worked for some company driving this truck, it ended up being sold a bunch of times until he bought it, looked it up, and sure enough it’s the truck he used to drive!

Rob Posted December 26, 2019 Author Share Posted December 26, 2019 I read all the good and silly comments to that video and he supposedly drove it in his high school prom too. Nice history to bring back home. My 300+ engine sounds pretty close to that starting cold if it's not plugged in, but does take a bit longer to smooth out running on all six. I imagine that video was shot when the temps were moderate, (~30) given the amount, and fluff to the snow cover.

fjh Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Pretty tough to beat an E9 V8 for starting in cold weather Usually will start after to or three turns and not be smudging the neighborhood with smoke either! 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/60298-seen-on-youtube/#findComment-438882 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep. I once worked for a fleet that had a whole bunch of V8's hauling salt all winter. Those things would always start no matter how cold it was out.
