No, that T600 deal flopped. Teal95KW saw it, and agreed that it might be advisable to pass.

Not an option. I think they're great quality trucks for vocational use, not OTR. I could be misinformed though.

If you plan on getting into tight spaces and turning radius is a factor, then the T600 might be your best choice. Any of the hoods are not going to turn that tight, especially with a long wheelbase. You will want at least a 260" wheelbase if you go with the 379 Pete. The short wb Petes don't ride that well. :?

I'm not too hip on those trucks for some reason. I might as well go W900 Plus, my Dad hates freightliners There are quite a few classics XL trucks going cheap, so if I found one really cheap, I'd take a look.
