there are plenty of kw t600's out there at under $50k, also the ih 9400's, but you are the 1 that has to live in it, so it is a fine line between comfort/affordability/least maintenance/etc keep looking and you will find 1 you like. good luck

 

I'm classy enough in kw without its problems. he he

with that set-up : what should be expected red line at what speed and mpg? Thank you.

 

nice truck except the 10 speed. I don't think i've ever seen a 70" bunk without a window in it.

it will be a long legged truck. Can run all day at 75 and keep the rpm's down. 13 or 18 speed would be better on fuel though

 

I'm kind of ok for no window, less stuff to rattle. lol. is it possible to convert a 10 to a 13. I was looking for the 13spd and couldn't find any in that price range and in my neck of the woods.

 

yes, but depends on model in it.

 

You can convert alot of 9's to 13's, but you can't convert a 10 to a 13.

 

I just got off the phone with the kw dealer, where the truck is for now, and they looked at the tranny and said that it can not be done. Well, I guess I'll be driving a ten speed unless something will change. Any one knows where I can get a good rate that is less the 13% financing with/765 credit score?

 

they only share a few major body panels... otherwise each company engineered their own version...

 

13% is a good rate for trucks. they are automaticly high risk loans. most these guys are runing around with rates up to and beyond 20%
