55 yr old truck, non synch. tranny and an obviously worn out hyd. system. I drove a Euclid & a Terex on a highway project here in Va. both had 1 bad habit...scarey as hell at top speed. But when you hook up to a sunk Kenworth and lift him off the ground....yea, it was cool. Gotta love that diesel ..
im not speaking for this very truck in the video but I drive a 54' euclid terrex just like that one and it works fine...same ol ugly green colour everything is the same.
LOL 21,240 folks have seen this video now, thats pretty good! I remmebr being number 2 or 3 way back when this 1st came out, Clint!

Well, he wasn't a driver, his usual job was working on the bridge crew. This was his first day driving an old truck.
