From what the WSI driver told me about this truck chassis: This truck is a 2003 Peterbilt model 357: PLEASE DO NOT CONFUSE THIS MODEL WITH THE 379 CAUSE THE BONNET HOOD IS MUCH TALLER & LONGER & is basically an OVER-THE-ROAD TRUCK for OWNER-OPERATORS!!!!!

Btw, this Pete is powered by a Caterpillar C-15 diesel engine with 550hp/1850ftlbs of torque backed by an Eaton Fuller (10 speed I think) manual transmission. Power is driven through Spicer's driveshaft back to the 40,000 lb Eaton tandem rear drive axles sitting on Hendrickson's walking beam suspension! The non-driving front steer axle is also made by Eaton,(don't know how many lbs)!! The weird thing is that I guessed some of the drivetrain specs & he said that I'm right, lol,......WOW!!!

Unfortunately, this truck doesn't have a Jake Break, but he said there is another Pete from the WSI fleet that does!!

The Pete357 is mainly for applications involving Waste, Construction, Municipallities & other on/off highway applications!

The driver was totally awesome for me to take these shots & has been working for WSI for many years & loves his job!! He also told me that he collects models of Garbage Trucks from the 40s & onwards & upwards!!! WOW, LOL!!!!

I even told him about GARBAGE TRUCKS on YOU TUBE!!!! He even told me that he might check out this post!!!

  • I like the roll offs, I always wonder if the garbage will just slide off the top and out of the container, haven't seen it yet.

  • Trash sliding out the rolloff bins creating a mess? Umm....Rather not see that happen!! Thanks for Watching!!!!

  • Nice footage! I like the look of these more heavy duty trucks pulling a roll-off frame. There's a new hook-lift down in my area that has a similar-looking chassis to this one, just can't recall the actual make... hoping to catch it in action!

  • Thanks, Me Too! That's all I saw in NY before I moved to FL! I hope you can get that Hook-Lift Truck in action! Good Luck!

  • Great video! I hope that driver gets on here and sees his truck... Glad you are having better luck with filming! 5* and Fav

  • If I run into him again, I'll ask him if he saw it! As far as having good luck filming, all I can do is keep my fingers crossed & hope for the best! Thanks for Stars & Fav!

see all
