    Can anybody let me know the difference between a Kenworth t680 and a t370. We need a 54,000GWR on food distribution and are getting quotes for both of these model. I think I am being oversolf on the t680 but I need an expert opinion. Any comments would be appreciated

    How far do you go for deliveries? The 680 is an over the road model and the 370 is an urban class 7 local delivery model. With the right axles and power train should work fine for 54000 lbs.

    mnmover. Our farthest distribution point is 350 miles away, if that. Then we do about 15 stops a day wherever we are at. Sounds like the T370 is a good match right?

    No. I would go with the T680 on a longer trip. Probably would ride a little better and reduce driver fatigue.
