Yeah, I've never seen one yet. I would like to, but I'm sure, after some time, there will be lots of them out there.

Here's a 389 from MATS
 Doesn't look bad...the lower part of the exhaust still looks like shat.

 I've always liked the Pete 379 even though I'm a confirmed Kenworth man. The more I look at the Pete 379 the more I like 'em and the new 389s do look a little happier. Order me one with a 550 HP Cat and a 13 speed, 3.37 rears with a 70" sleeper on 24.5 rubber and I'll be happy! :lol:

you got it,that will be $135,000
I dont care what truck its is, its not worth no 140,000$ when for 110,000 i could have bought in Freightliner Classic or Century class Owner Operator package with FET, Detroit 515 with all the goodies and could run it up to a million miles before overhaul. I understand the long hood/classic type of need in drivers but whats too much is just too much.

I saw a 389 where I unloaded yesterday. I had hoped to be able to talk to the driver, but he was gone before I got unloaded and back to where he was unloading. The headlights are the single thing which I first noticed. I would expect to see some resistance from hard core 379 owners, but time will tell.

That's what I think too. |
