Anyone driving a KW t660 or Peter 389?
I'd be interested to know what you guys think of them.
|
is there a pete 389 ? i only heard od 359-379- & 387 man i must be getting old.. :oops:
|
The 389 replaced the 379 recently as with the T-660 replacing the T-600 :wink:
|
I have not driven either,but I did get an up close look at the 389 this last week at the Pete dealer in St. Louis,I must say the pictures I have seen so far don't do it justice.The truck had a square bumper and stainless visor and looked very close to the 379,the only thing I didn't like was the headlights and they might grow on me or I would just replace them like evryone does anyhow.
I didn't get to get inside but I was pretty impressed looking at it from the outside,I think that it will become the new staple of O/O's. |
Yeah I remember driving by one and I thought it looked kind of funny. I'm pretty sure the hoods are a bit bigger too, especially the grill.
I wonder if everything else is pretty much the same? |
The hoods themselves are longer than the previous model. The grille I don't believe to be bigger I think it's the grille shell is thinnner, making the opening look larger.
Not too fond of the changes Peterbilt has made...the hideous exhaust, and the sootbox location etc. for their new trucks. Seems the W-900L is going to be the staple for the trucks...it's maintaining all the classic truck looks, even with all the new emissions standards. |
The exhaust probably has something to do with the new emissions, what have they done anyways?
|
lots of bad things which result in poor performance and mileage which resulted in declined orders which results in a couple of my buddies being laid off at the renton WA paccar plant.
