Peterbilt 579 vs KW 680

You mean the customers are "braindead"?!!!!!!!

 

As you know...I have a 386.....I bought it for *ahem* the "Better Aerodynamics".....Right.....I still only get 3.5 mpg running up Vail...and Aeros are hard on steers....

 

starting to look like COE that someone stuck the radiator 8 feet out in front of it.

 

Actually I liked booth truck. In real life the Pete looked better, but the KW clearly more aerodynamic. So I spent more time in the 680. They swore this is a brand new truck built from scratch, (they did the same with the t700 which is clearly t2000) but I believe this one is based on 660. Also they always compare to that. The difference is, the 680 officially not a replacement of any current truck. They said they will keep the whole line. Of course if one or other of the models does not sell, they will cancel it. I think in the back of their mind it will be the 660, but it is selling so strongly they do not want to pull out of the market yet. My guess, it will go for a while, because although it is an "ant eater" lot of people still like it, because it reminds for the "good ol' days". For me, this is no brainer. T680 is 10% more aerodynamic (5% better fuel economy). The one thing, the only sleeper is 76", no available the 86" studio, if somebody really needs it. As of the price, they said it will be about 5,000$ more expensive (the t700 about 2-3,000 over the t660, the t680 about 2-3,000 over the t700), because of some luxurious features. I think, they just try to have a little "new model premium".

 

Yep very realistic even comes with a bad black spot under the skin/hood.

 

I have had the front end checked out...Nothing wrong with alignment or the camber....The bearings (torque) are to spec....I have Bridgestone 280's and they wear for sheyat...

I have been told that since my front end is not biased for the road crown...That could be the problem?....
