I've done 18 and 19 t680 tours it's one of the best trucks on the road
By far the most comfortable truck I've been in. Loving it.
Glad to hear Brannigan. Thanks for watching
Love your vids, You're making me think on the KW, since I'm a Pete man.
Thanks Tarrell. Glad you’re enjoying the videos.
Nice hair Andy new style l like it nice vlog !
Beautiful!
Hey Andy.
What size bunks options can I get on a W9L?
amazing truck
Good Video!
Thank you!!
Is the swivel passenger seat standard on ALL 2018 or just yours? Please advise.
Well done, thank you!
Thanks for watching
Does it have lane assist or collision control etc
Beautiful truck
Thanks for watching!!
Good video
Thanks Michael. I appreciate you watching!
sweet interior
Thanks for watching
RAW!!!!!
Thanks for watching
Looked in one today, maybe in a few years?
How much are they going for
You can put up to a 32 inch tv I have one in mine no problem
You spec'd it out really good.
Thanks for watching videos.
I drive one too. It drives nice but after driving a t800 for a long time it seems kinda cheapo... hate the rattles when pulling hard. Fairings vibrate and sound shitty. 500 paccar pulls not to bad. I run at 58000kg with a 4 axle chip van.
She a beautiful rig.
Sure is Terrell. Thanks for watching
Why not integrate the seatbelt into the seat? Much more comfortable I’d say, seems a bit old fashion having it in the wall
Great idea Magnus. Thanks for the input
Well the way you showcased it, its a little better than I thought it was. Do you know if these t680s are good for swapping engines? Like if you could replace that paccar thing with an older Detroit engine? Also, does this truck have a jake brake?
The truck has an engine brake not a “Jacobs” brand brake. I’ve never looked into it putting a Series 60 in the truck but anything is possible for the right money. My guess is no as it was never designed for the T680. Wiring and harnesses might be a nightmare to deal with.
The Kenworth Guy thats why itlge hard for me to adapt to these new Kenworths these days. I'll stick with the w900, t800, t660, t600 and all the older ones
The Kenworth Guy it's a little ***
The Great!!!!!
Can you add the swivel table and chair to an older t680?
Yup. Big money though. I would assume.
The best truck...
Most aerodynamic too
Do you have any gliders on the way or being built?
Hi Don. We currently don’t have anything on order but if you wanted to custom one for yourself we could talk.
The Kenworth Guy can I order t 660 glider with cat 6nz
Nope. The T660 is gone
That jacket tho💯💯🔥 where can i get one?
That’s a collectors item now. Hard to find.
Can you get the Kenworth T680 in a glider
Hi Dennis. Gliders are not available on a T680.Glliders are only available on T660, T800, W900 or T370
drive it !!!
Stay tuned. Thanks for watching
Wish there was a trick to fool the 100km governor...
No apu included?
The factory offers a system called KIMS. Kenworth Idle Managment System. It is an a/c unit powered by batteries. We also offer a factory installed inverter and bunk heater. Aftermarket there are many options. Thanks for watching b
Wrap it up, I'll take it home with me!! ( I wish)
Sounds perfect
The Great!!?
What was the Wheel base on this unit? Is an APU INCLUDED??? Contact me
It’s a 232” wheelbase. The apu would have to be installed by your preferred supplier/brand.
What length do you offer that truck in?
Hi Santiago. The truck has a 232" wheelbase but we can built it to whatever length you want. 1" increments + or -
Thanks for watching!
Andy The Kenworth Guy I'm planning on buying a used one. So I'm just looking at the different lengths that you guys have.
What length would you like to see?
Andy The Kenworth Guy If the stock common length is 232, I would like an extra 6 in. I want to install a rack behind the cab. And this truck is going to be used to haul a refrigerated trailer so I want that extra space.
Makes sense. We do get varying wheelbases in trades.
2:20 "weedburner exhaust" & 2:50 mx paccar motor (FACEPALM!) Ugggh! Wtf. (Note next time) Spec a vertical exhaust and a Cummings x15 motor with a 13 speed.
Paccar? Nvr!!!
Volvo or kenworth? I'm leaning towards the kenworth?
I’d hate on the wall seat belts, they iratate my girls
LOL
I'm going KW
I dont get no rattles or shake
Thanks for sharing! It is a quiet and comfortable truck for sure!!
Man I didnt know tractors hold 240G so you must be refueling like every two weeks haha?
How much as shown?
Approx $180,000 canadian
Thanks, That’s about $136,00 USD..

I have exactly t-680 2019 silver custom order and with 12 speed automatic transmission, but the dashboard it’s rattling everywhere and the wind blows through the doors has three sales but I don’t see the point blows all over the wind :( and the engine brakes sucks takes three seconds to upshift through every shift engine break every time , :( it’s a junkie truck , I didn’t bought the freightliner after two years starts rattling everywhere but the kennel it starts rattling after 2nd day and 500 miles :( shame on Kenworth worth
Hi Mihail. Bring the truck to your selling dealer and i'm sure they will address these issues. The issues you are saying are normally addressed in the PDI and possibly were overlooked.
wow its hard to believe but you can watch this guys videos and see his truth there, cant believe it hardly
I get that vibration noise behind the dash also,but other than that I’ve had only two minor sensors issues.A year and a half and she runs very good 🤗
Sounds great. We sell a great product!

Türk Trucker ?
What’s the question Nesim?
Lol, stop the video at 6:46...
I just got assigned a 2019 T680(day cab). Worst truck I have ever driven. Loud, noisy cab- there is no sound deadening material in the engine compartment. Rough ride. Very hard and uncomfortable seat. Truck causes very noticeable driver fatigue while other trucks are being designed to reduce driver fatigue. Virtually no in-cab storage. Automatic transmission is clunky and awkward. When trans goes to neutral with c/c on, the truck shakes like it has a bad u-joint. Windshield washers won't even clean off a fresh bug. Came from the factory with fuel guage not working. Mirrors are too short. And may not be a big deal to some, but you can't make interior lights stay off while door is open. Came from the factory with fuel guage not working. Many that the company has bought have already been in the shop, some more than once. And with all this, the truck is only getting 7mpg while others are reporting 8-9mpg. My impression is this truck was built only to please shareholders. All of the mpg gimmicks and, I assume the price, are to sucker fleet managers into buying them. The driver was left out of the picture. Volvo is king of the road.
Hey Brad. That’s a tough review. Sounds like some of the issues should be resolved easily by a visit to the local dealer. Some of them are design preferences which I know kenworth worked with drivers all over NA to design the current cab. I appreciate you voicing your concerns and thank you for watching the videos. All the best!
It's in the shop after steering wheel mounted radio and c/c controls quit working, windshield washers quit working, and windshield started two cracks from the edge at top, driver's side. Total of nine defects. 11,000 miles. I am in a spare Volvo and it feels amazing. I don't mean to be harsh, but KW really has some work to do on both quality and with the issue of driver fatigue. Operating on the yard has me tired and sore 30 minutes into the day because of the clunky 10 speed auto. It acts like the engine brake is full on at all times. And then to get out on the road with the rough ride and high noise level- why is there no sound deadening under the hood? I haven't seen that in a long time. And I have a (very)sore spot in my neck from the way I have to move my head around to see out of the small mirrors. A couple of things that KW has right: Plenty of leg room. The front axle is good. It is much smoother than the rear and the truck drives good. Good steering wheel including placement of stalks. Dedicated air horn control is appreciated. Interior is made to look nice.
@@bradh6185 still sounds a little harsh if i was in the market for one i would want to seriously think about some things that you have mentioned though,
And I hate to sound harsh. It actually pains me to sound so negative. But I felt like people should hear the other side of the story. And I didn't even list half of the issues. There are so many design deficiencies and quality issues. Even if it were getting good mpg, I could at least see an affordable sale price as a silver lining. @@NomadicSociety
