And finally...another video dedicated to a single truck! and it only took a year for it to emerge...sorry.

As I watched the truck service my neighborhood, my appreciation for it grew. Then, when I officially joined the community, I quickly realized how much of a good truck I had going for me. As such, I knew I had to get on camera someday. Over the course of a few weeks, I got to film it, then sat on it for almost a year (again, sorry) before deciding to let you have a look. but finally, it's here.

Because it took me that long to film, I am breaking down the video over a few sections below:
0:00 - Intro
I went back there to get better shots for the beginning of the video, as the original intro made it jarring, plus some extra clips as well. You might have noticed this is post exhaust leak footage of the truck, But I'll get to that in a moment.
1:45 - Pre-Exhaust Leak
This is the truck I knew for over a year, fast and modestly loud. While I liked this truck in that state, I thought 1233 had a better exhaust note and that it simply needed a better driver to utilize that truck to its fullest potential. But then...
05:58 - Exhaust Leak
I just about to wrap up filming with 3733 when I heard one of the best exhaust notes I've ever heard for a truck. Then, the ever so familiar 1234 popped out of the woodwork. Turns out the truck had an exhaust leak that practically sounded like a straight pipe. I immediately knew I needed to film it that day. Unfortunately, I had already expended much of my energy into filming 3733 that day. But I am glad that I got as much footage as I did.
9:25 - Post-Exhaust Leak
After that day, I hopped over to the Wednesday portion of the neighborhood to hear another glimpse of the exhaust note. I was disappointed to find out that they "fixed" the leak, however, I was quick to realize that the truck still sounded meaner than it did before the leak. Since it was windy that day, I didn't film, but I decided to allot myself another open day to get the footage, which I did.

And also, as of this video's upload, the truck was last seen in October. I (nor others) have seen it since, but I hope it reemerges one day since I would really like a round 2 with this truck.
