kenworth T2000

I used to work on T2000 with N14 engine. Simple and reliable truck

 

I drove one and didn't like it at all. I hated the fact that to get to the batteries you have to remove drivers side steps and fairings, I thought the visibility on it was bad maybe because Im short. Interior held up well and it had a good engine but I really disliked that truck.

 

Wide truck with lost of interior room and less visibility that other KW models IMO. I am 5'9" and I had to have the steering wheel in my face to reach the pedals without shoes on (it was ok if I wore boots). Lots of plastic storage cabinets is also a double edged sword......handy but they shake and rattle like crazy after a while. Headlights are kind of poor. We have a 2001 and a 2005 and they both have had cab wiring issues related to the circuit board behind the glove box.

 

Those trucks are poorly designed pieces of garbage. Pain to work on and horrible to drive.

 

it is popular place for batteries, Volvo, KRAZ and many other trcuck got batteries under step
