Big Rigs Talk about other Cummins powered vehicles here. As a matter of fact, it doesn't even have to be Cummins, but it will be diesel! :)

That being said, R.I.P. 379, anyone know how the inside of the new style compares to the older Pete's? I havent got a chance to climb up in one yet. Those new IH's gotta be pretty sharp inside too, I know the outside looks sweeeet.
I like the interior of the new 379's I have seen several 09's I think they are just as nice as the older 05's

Dad's KW was the same way.. You could eat off the floor!! I guess when you lived in it as much as he did you tend to keep it clean

On the other hand, seeing a nice clean interior would be sweet.

Bumpity bump for this post.
I wouldn't get near some of those company trucks, an some but few OO trucks...like some have said OO keep them clean and spend thousands of bucks on accessories...look at that pic of the Petes dash...He has over a grand in chrome there...My trucks were always spotless on the inside an out...My neighbor at one time owned a carpet an upholstery cleaning service and he detailed my truck inside every spring, and the outside was buffed to a mirror polish 3-4 times a year and that meant all chrome, aluminum and paint, also it was washed every week an every time I went into Ca...also my undercarriage was steam cleaned of all grease an oil, which made it easy to inspect for leaks....guess what in 25+ years of driving as a OO I never ever failed a DOT inspection...Had many comments by the officers about the clean undercarriage, my answer was its my rear in the seat going down the hill...And Momma always told me....Don't you drive no ugly truck....
Ashes to Ashes...Dust to Dust...If it weren’t for Chickin/Bull haulers the left lane would rust....
