Only issue I ever had with the 567 was that stupid Paccar GPS / Radio. It would shut off whenever it wanted. Everything was great.
What would you do? Keep my truck or move to the new one?

My mind is mostly made up at this point. I'm gonna try the Pete for a few days and see if it surprises me. I have my doubts though. It should be here soon I'm told.

Well to anyone who cares, the debate is settled. Although not settled in the way I'd planned. I'm staying in my Western Star after I return to work in a few weeks. I was cutting a tree and it fell on me, breaking my scapula. So I'm out of work for the foreseeable future.
The boss doesn't want the new truck sitting that long, and I totally get that. So I stay in my truck and return to work whenever the doctors clear me.FullMetalJacket, MACK E-6, 201 and 11 others Thank this. -
Kind of a bittersweet post, while most here are glad you are keeping the WS, a smart move in these uncertain times, I'm sure we all hope for a speedy recovery, whatever a scapula is, it will probably bother you until you die. Coming from the Northwoods, where a chainsaw is more valuable than a good woman, if any, I've heard plenty of tree cutting accidents, and dropping a tree is always tense, they do strange things before they fall. Besides, no shame in the Star, I loved my WS, and not like you have to drive the company's spare Mack R model with no P/S,,,
, good luck, pal.
