New bonnetted KW

KW are pulling down the markee today so looks like it was over the weekend. Doesn't bother me as we haven't worn out the C500 yet :blink:

The new ones avalable as manual :oops: :oops:

...The penny has just dropped as to why isn't the cab the same width as the bunk like your everyday EuroBanger ?..... FFS, they still have to offer those bloody dinosaur side mounted exhausts !!

.... The poor buggers at Bayswater have to walk a very fine line, and still feel the need to provide this noisy, ridiculous option. I can understand their reticence about TOO much change...but hopefully the new, younger brigade will recognise comfort for what it is, instead of having a bellowing, barking exhaust pipe right in their earhole Lol !

not likely defective we are all hoons when we are young :silly: :silly: :silly:

and deaf hoons when we are older commenting "The exhausts don't seem as loud as I remember when I started"

How quickly SOME of us forget! COE Petes with BOTH exhaust AND vibration, what more could you want? You'll have to speak up, what was that again??

...I probably should've put a more practical slant on the new Kenny .. They're always being built for the young upcoming bloke in mind, but (unfortunately) being driven on a day to day basis by a lot of white haired, hobbling and knackered worn out old men who thought their superannuation was going to look after them after their long career on the road...

...these are basically the real facts.

Swishy mate
Is it true Paccar have installed mirrors on the new wide cab KW sun visors ?

I don't think Ill see too many of them out my way, its still 909 tri drive and 200 big cab territory out here.

First time I saw it, I thought it was a new Mack until I got up close enough to have a good look. They must be trying to get a few clicks on it, is see it every few days up here in Mackay.
