    The air cleaner debacle doesn’t bother me anymore. It’s no A model W9 or a Wide T8 but for a new 2023 model truck, it’s decent enough.

    An abomination, that’s what.
    I believe the idea behind the 990 is to eventually end the production of the narrow cabs that are hand built and hucked together. The 680, 880, and 990 all use the same molded cab.
    I’d totally rock that in a mostly day cab type operation. But that sleeper is tiny inside with zero storage.
     
    Siinman Thanks this.

    Got more than our 40" bunks. Aka plenty of storage for 4-5 weeks OTR.

    I saw a solid red one in this configuration, today. Looked really good. Wrong rear suspension on this one, though. AirGlide 380 is where it’s at.
     
    Siinman Thanks this.

    It does look better than the big sleeper. If it was. 70” flat top with about 6 more inches in height
     
    Vampire and IH9300SBA Thank this.

    This is the smallest sleeper I would want to run any amount of OTR in. I would have to take the passenger seat out, and I still wouldn’t like it. It has two cabinets and a shelf across the back that have a ton of storage. 261D9EEC-7AA3-47C8-8BCE-7863C493B2A9.jpeg
