Dont under sell the Isuzu, they arent all classy looking but they are a good truck and certainly are good contender in the truck market

Or at least I find them super reliable and cheap to run

Paul

You are 100% right…
They are like a little sturdy workhorse..

Not many frills on them but definitely reliable .

We followed a pair of KW being delivered north bound while towing our caravan about a week n a half ago on a Friday. Thought maybe if it was you or not. Hope you always wave as you go passed Coopernooky and all the road works.

So the Mack’s are definitely more comfortable than the kw…
Much quieter in the cab and a better place to be.

I don’t like some of the switches Mack use though. They look cheap and dated already.
Sorta like old $5 repco switches.
The gauge layout in the Mack’s are odd too.
Coolant temp being impossible to see without looking around the steering wheel.
Small things like that.

But, like I said they drive nice, very quiet and things like window switches are better laid out in the Mack and fuel gauge is much more accurate than a kw.

Kw definitely look nicer both outside and inside.
Especially when specced up with the gold rim gauges and so on..

My problem with kw is still small shit.

That 909 was brand new and the overhead console squeaked horribly.
Had no aftermarket switches or radios Installed so I doubt it’s been removed.
Window switches are in an odd spot.
Fuel gauge is useless.
Gotta slam the doors and small things like that..

Anyway sorry for rambling lol

Thanks for the reply, I do think about buying a new one every now and then, cant really justify it but I cant take it with me either, the truck or the money

But you can be buried in the truck.

They would need to dig a big hole!
