I've been driving kenworths for almost 16 years. Started out in t800s then in 2012 I finally got a w900b, which is my favorite looking truck. I'm on my 3rd one now, love them.

Same here I have always loved the W900L. It was my dream truck and now I have one of my own. Would never dream of giving it up.

I love w900 every since I was a kid. Had a toy truck and it was a w900. Now I own the real thing. I'm glad Kenworth is keeping them around. Just a good looking truck classic style and class all together. Can't go wrong with a w900

Most of the people who do not live in America, they are not truck drivers, but do love trucks and truck games know that Kenworth beast very well ! I started with getting to know them since i got my hands on a game "18 wheels of steel", then "pedal to the metal" and came to the latest American truck simulator and European truck simulator ! I have to say this truck won my heart because it drives better, it's a masculine truck, sexy as hell V8 sound and it PULLS the heaviest cargo's as if they were toothpicks ! Just yesterday i saw a video from Australia with Kenworth trucks pulling 4 trailers road train with 300k tonnes of coal each ...Now that was impressive and i would say if i ever become a truck driver in U.S.A i know what i will be looking for !

Spent a lot of my childhood in a 97 w900L. We still have it and work it everyday. And still looks like it rolled of the showroom floor.

I drove a 2004 W 900L day cab in the middle 2, 000’s . It had a 475 Cat later turned up to 525 with a 18 speed road ranger with 370 gears and 24.5 tall rubber. It had the 1 piece windshield with a sunroof, bullet markers and twin trumpets, the large slotted aluminum wheels and everything that could be chrome or stainless was. It was silver with black cherry metallic fenders and roof. Along with the full gauge package, twin premium leather seats and leather diamond tucked interior and a premium sounds system. I wish I had the funds at the time to buy it but oh well

Hi, In 1968 I ordered a W-900 thru Boise Kenworth, it was built in Canada, it had a 5spd main backed up by a 4spd brownie, and an 8v71 power plant. I wish I still had it.
