Default 9900ix Farmall

Im considering trading my 95 Pete 379 exhd for an '04 9900 ix. Anybody running one that would like to tell me how they like/dislike the 9900?. I know I can get into one for about 10 grand cheaper than a Pete with comparible specs and mileage, but theres a reason for that, and im sure some of the reason is the name "peterbilt". I have talked to a few drivers of the farmalls, [mostly 9200 and 9400's] , Half will say they love em, half will say they are junk...any thoughts?

The 9900 is a good truck but the one I rode in had a ton of wind noise.

I have owned a Peterbilt and now have a 9400 International Eagle. I have the same setup in my 9400 as the 9900. I like the extra room in the sleeper that the International has compared to the Peterbilt. I almost bought another Pete when I found the International. I saved more than $20,000 by getting the International. It is more comfortable and has more room for less money. For me, that is a no brainer.

I have a 01 9400 Eagle. I like it way better than the Pete 379 or KW T-600, T-800 & W9's. I like the idea of standing up right out of the driverseat, and stepping into the sleeper area. In the Pete's and KW's, I gotta bend and slide, so as not to hook the gear lever or jumpseat.
