    587 is replacing the 387. Design changes interior and to address electrical issues of the 387.

    These trucks appeal to the kids who grew up playing with transformers and watching Star Wars, not us who listened to Red Simpson and Dave Dudley.

    Part of me would trade my w900 for a 660. I get tired of my ###### turn radius.

    I'm sure you watched or seen transformers to mr. They used a Pete 379 so you must be watching a bootleg version or something. Lol.

    Diffrents strokes for different folks, no one is wrong for what they like or dislike. What would this world be if everyone like the same thing, dressed the same, looked the same, talked the same, everything you can think the same. You'd get bored real quick and wouldn't have nothing to talk about. We wouldn't have v8lenny or producehauler or yourself and everyone else who makes this world a different place.

    If we were all the same then that would mean no more stress, right?

    The T700 reminds me of a football helmet

    I find the trucks without exterior sunvisors just plain ugly and i am seeing some new kw's that look alot like a freightliner cascadia,neither having the visor and both ugly as homemade sin. Hideous actually.

    What's up with the new trend of no exterior visor? it is beyond frugal,epitomizing cheapskate and probably makes the a/c work that much harder imho.
