Help 2 Which Truck has the most comfortable Cab???

Hello:

Of all the trucks you have driven, which truck has the smoothest ride and comfortable cab? As far as bed, room to spare, closet space et? Also does it pay to add an extension to your cab? Like adding a sink, TV, Closet space, lounge table, and full showers?

John

My favorite is a 379. I've owned 2 so far.. looking at a 3rd now. The smothest most comfortable truck I have ever driven was a W-900 C-15 cat 10 speed with really good jakes. Best driving truck I've ever had the pleasure to pilot. Love the looks of my pete though. Its just classic.

radiorambo has a spectacular aura aboutradiorambo has a spectacular aura about
I have to say I liked the Freightliner Fld's for how they looked but the KWT600's for ride/looks. I like the detroit motors for economy. Never really liked the volvos looks but they do ride like a cadillac. International was pretty good but its been so long since I drove one I cant comment.

Drove a pete a few times just didnt really feel right to me probably cause I wasnt used to it but it seemed like driving a tank.

my best truck

the best truck i've drivein is the kw w9 with a 9 or 13 spd
i've driven alot of trucks workin with sub contractor for the post office since we weren't issued a truck.
freights suck no matter what they are coranado or not,nuff said
kw's t2 blows around to much in the wind, and turn like an ocean liner
kw's w9 with the eaton auto shift should be put out to pasture and shot
kw's t6 are alright just a couple little things that would be nicer if they fixed them.
sterling's vibrate like a freight goin dwn the road
i've never driven a pete but everyone i talk to say's that there one of the best if i got the chance i would probley love it
vovlo's like the pete never had a chance to drive one but have heard about a lot of probelms with electrical and takes alot them to fix them when they break
so there's my more then 2 cents worth

Throw 13k on the t6's front end and it quiets down alot. Empty is scarier than fully loaded. Everything is bouncing around.
