    I have a 70" but I had a 63" standup sleeper. I miss the sleeper door and all those vents. These sleeper windows look fancy on the 70" , but where can u open them? Too much noise , dirt and sunlight out there.And I do have a 6nz Cat.

    Pete's look nice on the outside but I wish the interior looked more like a Western Star.

    I used to want a western star until I saw the interior, the sleepers are nice but the dash just isn't for me. I'm a fan of peterbilt layout in the 2007+ trucks.

    Mine is a 63 inch standup with 4 vents. I would really like to have the two side windows.

    How many more frieghtshakers, Volvos, or internationals have you seen with a bouncing front wheel that's so bad it makes the fender and hood shake compared to 379s or w900s ?

    None of the trucks I've driven ever had that problem and all have been 379s and w9s
