    It was finalized a while ago you heard wrong

    The W900 isn’t going anywhere considering they’re selling like popcorn at a movie theater. This is just another option for the guys with flip flops and Addidas track suits.

    If the folks currently buying the 900 start buying the 990 the 900 will go away. If no one buys the 990 it will go away. Sales is the deciding factor in what models any manufacturer produce.

    If they’re selling like popcorn, then why did they say that it’s only a single digit of annual sales?
    Exactly what was finalized?

    Edit to add: And I don’t wear adidas track suits or flip flops.... not that I see what point you’re trying to make.

    I'll tell you what actually bothers me about this truck and that's the grill. I would like it to look like a W9, cathedral grill.

    Its not all that bad a looking truck. Yea its not a traditional narrow cab, split window, big visor, big air cleaner truck but for it being a wide cab more aero type truck it looks really good. Looks better then the Pete 567sffa with its slopped hood.
