    i dunno, might just be me, but it looks an awful lot like a pete 387 to me
    it is a nice looking update to the frieghtshaker line though

    I live in Portland oregon and work on Swan Island where frightliner is located. They do there test runs daily all over the industrial areas near our port terminals. Just the other day i was heading back to our yard and where the 405 meets up with the 5 someone was not paying attention while changing lanes and side swiped and brand new cascadia. That was a sad sight to see...

    It appears they have kept the split windshield, I'm waiting to see how they treated the engine compartment.
