    This was a local shop too. I’ve never gotten a quote from a Peterbilt dealer.

    My favorite has been reading all the comments on social media about the 589 from people acting like the W900 will be around forever.
     
    Siinman and D.Tibbitt Thank this.

    Looks like nothing more than a 567 with a 389 hood modified to fit. Different mirror bracket, air cleaner, horns etc.

    I believe that is exactly correct. It’s similar to how they pulled the 386 out of a 379/389.

    The 3 series cabs were the same across all lines previously so it would make sense to use 5 series cabs across the board now.
     
    kylefitzy, Siinman, ducnut and 3 others Thank this.
