What truck would an experianced driver prefer to drive?

The t660 is the best choice for some one with a mind set on upgrades such as transmission, fuel tanks' size and others.
If the truck is directly intentioned to be put on the hands of a driver, you'll be miles away with the auto crapcadia.

 

How bad is this?
I work for Maverick and love the smart shift as it is now called. But I would recommend buying the blue one. This has nothing to do with job opportunities, head/leg room, engines, or anything that seems to attract potential drivers. It DOES have to do with the X Y harness/solenoid in the transmission. This is the common down fall on most auto trans and it carries a hefty price not including install. $1500 conversion tho and I'm all over the Cascadia especially the 2010 or earlier.

My question for you...
does the kw have the clean aire filter like the cascadia?

 

I think I read where you made your decision, but I just wanted to throw in my .02. I like the Cascadia better. I drove a large car while I was in the industry, but I had the chance to drive a FL Century as a loaner and I really liked the way it turned and was set up inside. If the Cascadia is anything like the Century I'd like to drive it as apposed to the KW. Never driven an auto-shift but I'm not apposed to the idea, and I like the idea of the larger fuel capacity.

 

What are you getting for fuel milage with the new ride ? And how does that compare with your old truck...?

 

I'm curious as to what make of flatbed trailer It'll be pulling. All aluminum, steel or combo?

 

you can never make all drivers happy, and some might prefer one over the other, its your money, buy what makes most business sense for you not for a potential hire, he might not even be with you by the time youre done paying for it.
Good luck ( not always fun to deal w drivers ) and post some pics of the new ride.

 

I would pick the KW just because the Freightshaker has the ultra shift. I don't care what a truck has in it, bar, dancers with a stripper pole full kitchen shower and bath I wouldnt drive it if it had the ultrashift.

 

I've only got three main preferences...

1. Reliable
2. Comfortable
3. Quiet

As long as it don't leave me on the the side of the road, the rest is icing on the cake.
