    Looks like that ugly ### Peterbilt 567 they just came out with.

    They have so many variations of the Pete I honestly don't know which one is which.

    I have noticed that color makes a GIANT difference on these trucks.

    I love the 680s, and I love white, and the 680s in white look like dog vomit.

    There's a bunch of tridrive SBFA 567's up here pulling Alpac B-trains. I didn't care for them at first but they're starting to grow on me.

    I'm even starting to warm up to the T880's too.
     
    BigBob410 and Dave_in_AZ Thank this.

    The 880s are nice inside... especially with a sleeper .

    But I’ve spent to many decades in a narrow cab to change now.
     
    Oxbow, stwik and BigBob410 Thank this.

    They gotta be specced nice though. The T880 looks so much better riding on tall 24.5's and wide steer tires.
     
    Oxbow and Cat sdp Thank this.

    The Cascadia is the ugliest truck ever designed.
    I could have dropped a cube of modeling clay and ended up with a better design.

    I asked a guy at Kenworth and he said it's not true. The W900 ia their bread and butter, and there is more than a 6 month wait to take delivery.

    I could see them producing a W990 (or whatever they'll number it) and selling it alongside the W900.
     
    Hegemeister, Oxbow, stwik and 2 others Thank this.
