    LOLS, yeah and that huge cab the kw has ! A yugo has more room than a t-660. Dont worry it will soon look like the three t-660's ive seen between gary and marshfield, all beat up, sleeper skirts bent in, pretty sad looking for trucks that have been out not even a year yet. also seen some new pro-stars with cosmetic down grades that where recent ! :biggrin_25513:

    I just started at Roehl just before Christmas....with 15 years experience, and have been driving a 2012 International Prostar. 10 speed transmission. Standing on the floor 65 mph, with set cruise 63mph.

    I love the Prostar. Great trucks. Great fuel economy as I'm getting above 8 mpg's.

    My '12 Prostar speedometer says 65 and 62, my GPS says 63 and 61, I think the Speedometers are off a couple MPH.
