    I drive a 20 year old T800 and it is by far the most comfortable, smoothest riding and pleasurable truck to drive that I've ever been in.

    The only problem for the electric truck is range,is very embarrassing to get just 150 miles . until they figured out how to extend that range is a big no for fleets

    • @604h22a
      @604h22a Před 2 lety +1

      Not really imagine all the city trucks puttering around wasting diesel. 150miles is way more than a lot of city fleets would need, wether it’s garbage/utility/p&d/equipment and car hauling etc etc.

      Most local semi trucks do 300 miles
      Straight truck might do 150 or less

    My favorite HANDS DOWN is the T-600, & has been since my little obsession with semi trucks began at age 3. My mom even kept a drawing I did at 3 1/2 of 1 that's dated April 1988 & says "not bad for a 3 year old 😂 .. I like how it's conception & 1st rollout of was 84-85 beens i was born in 84 (So the t-6 & i are the same age) HA!.. After years of racing high-performance rc cars I finally got into Garden Trucking which is probably the most coolest & unique hobby out there if you're a harden big-rig fan like me. It's precision scale modeling where you build the truck from the ground up starting with a kit, then you can go from there. The possibilities are literally ENDLESS. They feature 3-speed manual transmissions that you shift via 3rd channel on the radio controller & have real Leaf-spring suspension & drive train. If you haven't heard of then you must check out. Only problem is they don't have kenworths, but that hasn't stopped people from constructing their own kenworth bodies like I'm doing. Nothings more BADASS than a decked out t-600 with 6" straight stacks mid body & 86" studio sleeper with a Great Dane. spread axle in tow.. I like how they've started going electric which the higher torque doesn't surprise me 1BIT cuz if you know anything about trains, the diesel locomotives pull 1000s of tons using traction motors on each axle with only 1:2 gearing. That's cuz electric motors (especially traction motors) are quite different, like when paring if you're converting a gas powered vehicle to electric if you have a 200hp gas engine, then you'll only require a 50hp electric motor. That's why I love electric (though many like to clown) they don't realize that those behemoths of the rails pulling a mile long 10.000 ton payload behind are electric powered.. The only difference is I would've done it in a hybrid setup. I've had designs of of simple electric hybrid that utilizes the transfer case & can go from diesel powered to electric with a flick of a switch. Something that could easily be sold as a simple add on. I got the idea years ago when checking out friends truck who hauled bulk lime for the water treatment plant & I couldn't figure out what the box between his trany & drive axles was till he told me it was a pump that he engaged with a switch. Thought it was pretty cool THAT'S WHEN LIGHT WENT OFF INSIDE 😂. Never hurts to have a gas backup. Best part is it don't even have to be connected to the drive train. It can work like a generator, so when maintenance is needed it can easily be removed for repairs

    i always kinda liked the T2000, But i see a lot of people disliking it. To each their own though.
    There is 1 thing about them that's for sure though, Regardless if one likes them or not, They always know exactly what it is when they see one.
    There's not really a truck out there that looks like it.

    I think the Australian Kenworth”s are a nicer looking truck than the American versions. The COE K200 is definitely the best looking, in the entire range. the original SAR was also a star.

I know the T2000 wasn’t his pride and joy. Since he was battling cancer he stepped back a bit for that model. T2000 wasn’t as pretty as the pervious.

    I like the next generation kenworth t680 because again I do not think electric Semi truck are going to work in colder and harder conditions because one battery's dont work well in colder conditions and two you will have to replace the battery motor often and three there are more chemicals in a battery alone than the fuel efficient diesel engine trucks and four were are you going to deposit all the old battery's
