More feedback on Kw vs cascadia. Kw has a hot top speed (I was being old lead foot and looked down to see I had gone past the end of the speedometer!) at good fuel mileage but it won't take off for heck. Cascadia with 10spd beats the Kw with 9spd in a drag race every time.
Also Kw longer wheel base and less turn radius. I'm having to experiment with backing as well as my namesake uturns. -
Smell all fresh and pretty?
Happy days.
The tough stuff will have to wait until tomorrow. -
You've never driven a w900 or freightliner xl have you?T.Rucker Thanks this.

UturnGirl and Dave_in_AZ Thank this. -
Idk. Human interaction can be good. It was my biggest problem with Sni. You would be surprised how much money you can potentially leave on the table in a take or leave it point and click situation. Sni dumbs it down then throws bait in the water for the quickest fish. A discussion from time to time about rates is never a bad thing. Just saying.UturnGirl, spyder7723 and Dave_in_AZ Thank this.

Don’t get too upset about not owning a truck, I owned a 1996 freightliner FLD, then an 03 international Eagle, Those were good trucks, I bought a 2010 cascadia, what a piece. Trouble started at 450k, been that way ever since. Spending about 20k per year to keep it moving, the great thing about getting a lease, right about the time it’s going to start bleeding you, it becomes someone else’s problem. Yeah, I could probably pay a new truck payment with just what I put in the truck. New trucks aren’t like the old ones, a buddy dropped 180k on a new Pete 389, been in the shop 6 times for DEF issues and recalls.

I had a 68 w9 with the Hendrickson walking beam hooked to my end dump, learned why the the country song lyric said “ give me 40 acres and I’ll turn my truck around “. Fun times.Farmerbob1, UturnGirl, spyder7723 and 2 others Thank this.

That's why they made Mack's with that silly looking off set cab. Thing would out turn a honda Civic. Just had to hold on for dear life when you hit a pot hole. Lol. MVP of all mixer trucks.Rrts247, Dave_in_AZ and UturnGirl Thank this.
