[h=1]Drive a NEW 2015 KW T680[/h]
Arctic Express is excited to announce that all new drivers coming on board will be in a 2015 Kenworth T680 by November! We are in the process of swapping our fleet out and are at a point in which we can get new guys into brand new trucks by November of this year.

lol. I was thinking about this thread the other day. He actually thinks a T680 is a special truck. Lol. That's so funny.

 

Yeah, after 3 1/2 years as a company driver with Schneider I couldn't even get them to put me in a Cascadia. They stuck me in Columbia gliders the whole time. After 3 1/2 years of having my back get the crap kicked out of it, I switched over to IC and leased a cascadia. 100 times more comfortable than the other crap they stuck me in and now my back doesn't bother me at all because lumbar and seat oscillator actually works. And here you are moaning about a cascadia after 6 months with the company LOL. Work more often and get an assigned piece of equipment so you aren't constantly in and out of other people's trucks.

 

Who is "He"? Artic Express? What is the problem with liking a particular truck?

I posted the link for the original poster. He is looking for a Company that puts drivers in a T680. Right?

 

The OP. The OP thinks a 680 is some magical truck. A truck is a truck.

 

that's like saying a car is a car

a 1990 ford escort is the same as a 2015 lamborghini aventador

 

And some people on this board think your a "Special" Person. But who am I to judge ?

in the end everyone has there pref, its there choice let them have it.

 

I'm pretty awesome. Haters gonna hate.

 

I've been around the trucking business my whole life. My family owned a fleet of about 15 trucks in the 90's. At some point I have driven just about every brand out there. I have driven some of the old freightliners worthy of the "freightshaker" moniker. As far as looks, paccar has things down. As far as fit and function, the new cascadias are light years ahead of the old fl stuff. I climbed out of my beloved 2005 KW W900L, and came to work as an IC for Schneider. Do I miss riding down the road, seat on the floor, in the big hole with the pedal to the floor, staring out over my hood? You betcher ### I do. I never thought I would like a cascadia. Now I drive one I will admit that it has grown on me. I'm still not crazy about the aesthetics, but everything on the inside is as well laid out as any truck I've been in. They have figured out how to make the most out of the space they have to work with. If the marriage between me and Schneider lasts, at the end of this lease I may try to get one spec'd with a 13 speed, and the right rear end. Anyways...... point being you are not being done a disservice by being put in a cascadia.
