T660 Purchase and questions

I think it’s kind of high.
Might ask if they’d take say.. 35-36k
They may drop the price, money talks.
Tell them they can keep the headache rack, if you won’t be needing it.

 

I have 2 of those with catS , i feel like driving bentley when i need little things like trim or door seal ... kenworth dealer doesn't stop surprising me !

 

I can call KW and get parts going back to my uncles 1976 w900 in under an hour.

price seems a little high, probably did step deck or something open along those lines, don’t see mention of a wet kit but guess it could of had a mechanical low bed with the ramps. only has 40 rears so I doubt it had too hard of a life.

 

it’s still general freight, loose the headache rack (or keep it if you want the storage) and chop the ramps off the back of the frame, it’s not like it has 46 rears and 4.33 gears, it will be fine for whatever generic trailer you choose to hook it to

being a mx 13 can you even turn them up much past where they are? That might be the reason for the 169 13

 

This truck used to pull an RGN trailer and did oversize more than likely (strobes and 5th wheel ramp for coupling)
Personally I'm a cummins girl myself. I've found Paccar engines are great when new but once they pass 500k mark most of these trucks are sold, that's why there's a ton of them on TP and other sites reasonably priced (cheap)
As far at the T660 goes, I love mine. I have a custom 144 inch sleeper and stay out for 3 to 4 months at a time. Interestingly an 86 inch studio sleeper can be converted to a custom sleeper, it's called a custom conversion, ICT does them also a place in Dallas used to. Gives you a shower, small fridge and a small sink option or more cabinet space.
You shouldn't have much problem finding a decent T660 on the used market with a good engine or something worth putting a better engine in. A good truck is one that doesn't constantly have you in the shop keeping you from doing your job, that's what I look for: maintenance history. I want to see how frequently the truck as been in and out of the shop.
Happy hunting,

I think I actually know the kid who used to run that truck for Lonestar. Makes sense why I haven't seen him lately, he must be in a T680 now.

Pretty much everything else has been covered.
