[QUOTE="-MadMax-, post: 2493940, member: 81697"]I saw one of those today and was like... WHOA... I don't know how a Pete drives ( though I have heard the stories, all good ) I gotta say, them and the KW's look GOOD! I saw a real mean looking KW day cab today. Nice fat dual pipes. I aint seen a Pete I didn't wanna drive. Yet to drive one. The Volvo's are ok. As far as driving/riding. IMO, under powered. Drove some older model of International in school. It kinda reminded of a Pete the way it looked. I noticed when we started out on the docking manuever with the Volvo's and then went to the International, sticking your head out the driver window did not give you a view of the entire side of the truck because of the flaring in the sleeper berth and stacks. But I hear some people saying you shouldn't look out the window and rely solely on mirrors. IMO, I think if you need to look out the window to get a different picture, do it. lol Been in an automatic 2012 Volvo day cab with some nice rims and super singles with my trainer lately.
