    Its nice, still like the international HX520 layout better though. All that crap crammed into the mack is giving me some cramped vibes. Then again im 6'2" and almost 22" across the shoulders so i prefer "open" floor plans much more.

    The 8 bag suspension looks like they let a third grader design it compared to how KW 8 bag looked. And I can’t get past all the frame bolts. Good gravy.

    Holy crap. I didnt even see that. Honestly id be concerned of that frame holding up long term. That many holes in it and that frame has GOT to be comprimised. Im just imagineing rust getting in betweem all those holes over the years and one good bump cracking it. Hard pass.

    Looks like an engineer saw they could save weight using smaller bolts/hucks, whatever they are, but then they realized they were going to need three times as many. Lol

    Whole truck is plastic and snapped together like legos. What’d you expect?
