Kenworth W900 or Peterbilt 379. First truck to buy

Same truck made by the same company - Paccar. Buy whichever is more aesthetically pleasing to you.

 

This is 1 of those trick questions isn't it ??????
Here's my answer
You need to buy what ever you feel is the best buy for the money you have to spend. That is set up best for what you plan to do.. how comfortable you feel while driving only you can decide what you like the best..
You need to remember is all about profitability at the end of the day
To be perfectly honest with you..JMO
BUT..neither of those 2 trucks should be your [ 1st ] truck..baby steps my friend baby steps

 

...why those types with ?! You dont like good mpg ?! ...or have spare money for more expensive parts ?!
...when i come to Kenworth dealership to purchase tiny rubber gasket i feel like im driving bentley or rolls

 

One that somebody else owns for about a year until all this settles down and you have a better understanding of weights and such

 

Honestly I can't answer that .. because I don't know which make of truck is going to give you the best fuel mileage..
If I was you I would look towards either a Freightliner or a Volvo..I can tell you for sure a 379 or a W900 are not going to be the best for fuel milage

 

They always said that when you go to a Bentley or Rolls dealer ..if you have ask the price then you can't afford it
I try my best to avoid the Peterbilt dealer .. but when I do have to go there for parts that's the 2nd question I always ask....how much is it ???

 

Peterbuilt 379. It is not made anymore, and will hold its value.

 

There's still a few reasonably priced entry level used trucks around, but you have to search for them, not just on the internet, but anywhere you go.

Others know this better, but keep in mind the age of the trailer - I think the insulation over time can become waterlogged and therefore heavier - some shippers require less than 10 year old trailers - and used prices on reefers are high.

Maybe your idea of researching and planning, and waiting a few months would be prudent.
