How familiar are you guys with old Kenworth's? More specifically, the Kenworth K100E. I'm playing it in American Truck Simulator (thanks to mods) and I want your guys' perspective on this classic!
A cabover! I love these! I think American Truck Simulator will be my next video game!!
The famous Kenworth K100E! You chose a great truck. The K100E is very reliable—it won’t leave you stuck on the road! It has a big, tall windshield and a short sunvisor, so the cabin is always bright, not dark. The design is beautiful and very aerodynamic. I love the metal rivets on the doors, and the engine vent looks strong—just like it should!
Damn straight, lil’ bro! Forgot how much you love cabovers!
The K100 is a special Kenworth model—very strong for its time, with big cabin doors! People used them everywhere because they could do any job. That’s why you see them in old movies, toys, and even anime! It was one of the inspirations for Optimus Prime’s truck in the first generation of Transformers, along with the Freightliner FL86! @titanwolf233 is driving a legend!
And I think the one in the picture is another K100 model—maybe the 1976 K100 Sleeper. It had a bigger cabin so drivers could sleep in it. Perfect for long trips. Many stopped using them because spare parts were hard to find, but some people still fix them up! What do you think, Trailer?
Gotta admit, I’m more a conventional cab pup myself—but show me a cabover in that paint job? Hell, I can’t resist! Blue’s my favorite color, after all!
