I am thinking of buying a new 2013 truck. I am curious as to what trucks I should look at first? A couple on my list already are a 2013 KW900 and the T680.
Another few on the list are the Peterbilt 389, 579, 587. Just wondering what are the opinions of those models of trucks?
Besides those are there some I should look at as well?
Another question how easily is satellite TV installed into a truck?
What to buy?

If you have not already, I would first drive for some time as a company driver to see if you even wanna be in the industry. Zero to one year experience?
nicholas_jordan, TRKRSHONEY and Bumpy Thank this. -
Kenworth and Peterbilt are both Paccar... very similar

The new Macks are awesome except for some electrical bugs.

if u r serious about buying truck already i can give my opinion on some. have driven w900l-379-prostar and columbia. w9 rode best down the road but turn radius and backing alot more difficult in tight places. 379 is nice on road and easy backing hated columbia but best mileage prostar always breaking down. i would advise pre2007 trucks dont break down as much and cost less. best truck depends on what u r looking for and what r going to do with it. how it is setup is more important than style or manufacturer.
Brownsfan16 Thanks this. -
What exactly are you going to be doing with the truck? Hard to make recommendations without knowing the mission you're going to need it to perform.

money must not be an issue apparently
might as well be new have all the warranty
a vqube is easily monted and can work with dish or direct tv subscription -
