Trucks

Why no love for International?

 

When I was still a student, our CDL school kept switching us back and forth between Freightliners, and older Kenworth and Volvos. I hated the shifting in the Volvos. After driving the Freightshakers, I found it was way too easy to miss gears even when I had the RPMs right. Downshifting and shifting while climbing steep onramps was a legitimate b****. Other than that, I don't have any complaints about Volvos. The seats were comfortable.

I recently drove a Peterbilt 386 and it was a really nice ride. The shifting felt good. If given the choice today, I'd take the Pete 1st.

Does anyone here drive a Western Star?

 

Well if want to learn the truck that most companys use then you want to learn on a freightliner I see more freightliners out there than anything followed second by volvo yeah the petes are nice but most larger freight companys dont use them that much probally because of cost
