I got put in an '18 T880 day cab today after the shop found a leaking DEF line on the older cascadia I been driving. The KW has the mx13, supposed to be 430hp, with a 10 speed AMT behind it. With my company already having the balls cut off the trucks, their fleet is governed at 61 or 62 depending on the truck and the transmission setup for economy this is one slow KW. This was my first time driving an AMT and I absolutely hate it, especially backing. I'm kinda curious which weighs more, '18 t880 or '13 cascadia, both day cabs. I was grossing 90k with the shaker before hooking to the container with the KW.
