    Get rid of the stupid front bumper "chin" extensions on the sides (I call them "curb catchers").

    They may do just fine in a wind tunnel -- but in the real world they are something to get beat up....& are really just in the way. :confused: :mad: :rolleyes:

    I made this thread and after my previous company got a bunch of new Kenworth and International trucks over the past year, both of which have had a veritable medley of issues from new, I've decided to go back to Volvo on a permanent basis. I hate to say it but I'd actually rather drive a freightshaker than a Paccar or Navistar product.

    The freightshakers are fine as long as they're specced right. Biggest problem I see is buyers buying into the ######## their salesperson tells them and ends up with a truck that can't climb hills worth a ####

    You can opt for the steel chrome bumper in place of the plastic one. Gives you more ground clearance.
