The need to give up bigger sleeper options 86” or 90” already. We have to live in these damn things. Give us some more space. How about a bigger fridge. Every truck should come with a dinette table so I can sit back and eat with some sense of home and comfort. How about a full closet that I could hang my clothes without dragging on the bottom.

[@drgoutbreak7934]

The manufacturers cater to the biggest customers being the megas me and you may buy 2 or 3 but swift will buy 500 to 1000 a year and since megas don’t want it not a priority

[@cowboyupnow63]

Just like these new 2022 crapcadias a lot of wasted space where storage can be used. Just like angle space above driver and passenger seat it could be designed better and cabinets spaces are pathetic. Small fridge.no place for a tv, tilt/telescopic steering wheel could be better, maybe a truck driver needs to go to the manufacturer and design how interior should look and function.

[@wes2253]

The answer is weight. The more sleeper or gizmos you add, the less weight you can haul, and at the end of the day the mega carriers are who control whats produced, and they are only interested in one thing. $$$$$

[@fang75429]

The T680 with a 125" BBC compared to a W900 with a 132" BBC should be a fair bit lighter and won't be longer any all if they went out to a 90" sleeper or similar. I'm surprised they haven't gone above 76" due to various people offering larger such as Western Star having 82", Peterbilt 80", KW 86" on the old platform,

[@k3iler05]

@@wes2253 Weight and probably costs.. Perhaps it is time the laws increases the weight a bit more to accommodate better trucks.

[@Matusovsky]

This beauty needs to be seen in 4K.

[@Snoopy4156]

A few years ago kenworth flew us to test drive their kenworths when they were playing with digital dash and it’s nice to see fully build now

[@DavidIrthum]

Ooooooo; wow; drool; awesome! Thank you so very much for the tour!

[@jeffherdzina6716]

Love it ! Sleek, beautiful, and love the paint on her.

[@Bendigo1]

Thank you for not editing out your confusion bloopers, they made my day. I imagined someone driving, trying to adjust the brightness from the wheel and then wondering why they are slowing down...🤣 Great looking truck. I like the digital dash concept and the features it provides. A night mode with red and black would be nice. I really wish they would change the table to a slide out instead of the swing out style. Ot is always in my way but still good to have.

[@danielwebb9306]

That truck is beautiful one great truck kenworth did a great job building it great video Andy love that truck

[@Lendercl]

Cant wait to start spotting these on the road! very nice looking truck

[@hugostephens8127]

World’s Best Always Look Outstanding!!!

[@waynecribb4922]

I like it. The hood compartment is very ergonomic and easier to work with. Nice.

[@alejandrovenegas2743]

that's great that they continue to install antennas in the mirrors greetings from Mexico Andy

[@buckfitches2087]

Thank you Andy. It's a beautiful truck.

[@k3iler05]

Love the wheel, reminds me a lot of the Volvo (which is really good). Good job KW. I also liked the well thought out engine compartments. The coolant placement is a bit odd but I can see the thought behind it. At least the washer fluid is easier to access.

[@Donald_Shaw]

Another great video Andy... The dashboard display with pick and choose gauges is fantastic. The truck is beautiful inside and out.

[@deanwhitaker7374]

That's a great looking truck love how they done the new dash and fuel panels.

[@allenwhitt2072]

Very nice!!! The modifications to the outside are amazing and make it now the best looking truck on the road!!!!!

I'm sold. This will be the beginning of a fleet.

Nice new look, slight touch of T-600... GREAT...

[@ericklebrun7627]

Beautiful truck, I'm a beginner in the truck industry. Nice work with the light compartment.

[@barbredgreen3403]

Nice video. I just got mine, brandnew… 6 days ago. Love it ❤

[@mx_ats]

For me, looks more like a T600 new gen. Narrowed hood, the lights, that fender, the end of the wheel well, all that resembles to that model. Looks very nice! Wish to see a Premium version, with full accessories, the Alcoa 7 spoke rims, metalic paint.

[@sponduli]

I saw them testing it in PA on 80. It's such a cool looking truck

[@agerardomp]

Cheers Andy. Thankyou to share general review to GREAT T680 KENWORTH and its description. Muy best wishes and bit hold from CDMX.

[@AndyTheKenworthGuy]

Many thanks!

[@elcamionologoprod.8639]

Is all a Beautiful Truck. Cheers from Dominican Repúblic 🇩🇴👍.

[@chipwarterfield3223]

Is the windshield glass coated. A rare option KW had many years ago was a heated Windshield. I figured it gets a little cool in Manitoba so that might be a good place to feature that option.

[@yanickcoutu7812]

Like the graphics. Simple but OEM look. Great looking truck

[@roburquhart2350]

Love the lines of the truck. Especially how everything lines up at the rear fairings and the two tone front bumper. Love that KW finally has a modern digital dash but not a fan of pairing it with analog guages or that catch all cubby hole. Lots of customization potential on this model 👍

[@kirktitgen2309]

That is one gorgeous truck !!!

[@Sinerwray]

Don't matter how bright or big the turn signal is 4wheelers still can't see it. Lol

[@Docstantinople]

Only some 4wheelers can’t see it. Just like how only some truck drivers are assholes and don’t move over.

[@midnitehauler-usafcombatve644]

Exactly.. 4 wheelers are absolutely brain dead and they are getting worse

[@weyuo6494]

Why are fog lights not standard especially in Canada? I could never figure out why such an inexpensive option is not standard in North America.

[@fukenright4431]

I agree and would also like to mention almost every newer car these days has TPS. Why can't these super expensive trucks at least throw in basic tire pressure info?

[@coach2208]

Canadian's don't need bright LED lights or fog lights, the snowy weather blinds the driver.

[@DaveRB3248]

Because they’re useless behind my oversize load sign lol

[@justinsanders2705]

I grew up in a Mack family but always loved the KWs.

[@dw9034]

Needs a special edition owner operator interior package...something luxurious, the VIT package with some extra goodies.

[@carfreak0029]

you can order it with VIT, and led headlights.

[@BradUSMCVETrider]

I'm so sick of VIT.. looks like the inside of a damn pizza warmer bag... Or one of those gaudy couches in a lawyer's office.

[@99967020]

We have three of them with the automated 10. They're very roomy and turn like a dream. But where they really shine is the one application for which they were surely designed--holding up dirt in a landfill...until the day you finally get the DPF deleted...PRESTO! Great tractor

[@KGB-FSB]

Man, that looks spectacular

[@AndyTheKenworthGuy]

Awesome

[@trudyvenable9785]

Love this truck. Nice. Red in color.

[@Mach_Style]

saw one on the road the other day and i loved the side turn signal on the hood fender. caught my eye when I saw it. amazing how something simply like that can amaze me lol. Also any info on when the new Medium dutys will start appearing? Im looking into getting one in the future and wondering if any of them will offer a small sleeper like the older T470.

[@caseylimbert266]

Yup, that'll look great going 62mph down the road with a driver trainee at the wheel... look out Swift!

Great video Andy. Real nice looking truck. Not sure I'd like the radiator fill jug on the firewall but if you need clearance for the hood, it has to come from somewhere

[@captainalex8923]

Love it Andy !

[@the.porter.productions]

Greetings from the Ohio Porters. 🇺🇸 The overall looks of this rig are cool, more aerodynamic. That’s good. I like the skirting. For years now, the manufacturers have said that full skirting all the way back would give better fuel mileage, and now you say that half of the skirting will give you better mileage. That’s confusing. I like being able to get into the gap behind the cab. Certain trailers require that you get in there to connect/disconnect. I gotta see one of these up close, so I guess it’s time to contact the local Columbus Kenworth dealership. Good stuff.🤩😎✌️

[@arielperez5951]

Beautiful truck I love it t680

[@wbball15]

Nice to see the innovator of truck aero still leading.

[@TruckinDavo]

Pretty nice, I'm looking forward to my company getting the next gen 680 in. I'm hoping I get one of the first ones we get 🙏

[@davidtosh7200]

I like the K-Whopper trucks. Many big trucks do equipped with one piece windshield, such as Kenworth, Freightliner, Peterbilt, Volvo, Sterling, Mack, and even Western Star. Western Star was formerly Studebaker, which Studebaker only built light and medium duty trucks back in the 1960s.

[@brookerleerich]

Great video 👍 . Are the new cac pipes a complete pipe now? Looked like a full rubber type hose now. Is there the option to not have the idle shut down to keep motor running all the time if you want? Keep up the great videos Andy 👍

[@jasonthompson8668]

Wow that is a really nice truck I like it looks good I like the digital dash is awesome

[@marcialacevedo3108]

She is looking awsome KW killed it 👍

[@waynenorbreyjr9371]

I actually got a chance to see a new Next Gen T680 out in the road this morning. It was really early and the way I noticed it was that amber marking light that’s on the back side of the front fender and I must say I like it! You can definitely tell it’s a NextGen T680!

[@waynenorbreyjr9371]

Headlights look fantastic as well !

[@goldenwings3695]

This one is off the Wall

[@waynenorbreyjr9371]

I watched the release of the Next Gen T680 and I thought that the truck was sharp and a excellent update. When I first saw it I immediately thought T600, T660 and T680 all wrapped up in one.

[@expres07]

No better truck then volvo

[@DMTruckSpotting]

I have to admit that I initially didn't like these, but they're really starting to grow on my now...

[@AndyTheKenworthGuy]

Nice

[@DMTruckSpotting]

@@AndyTheKenworthGuy btw, I’ve heard of a couple of obscure models or nomenclatures, T801 and T804. From what I understand, the different number represents the cab style, so which cabs would those models represent?

[@dankruger2890]

as a company that run reefer east to west(2800 miles one way), fuel economy is a huge factor. Also wanting a great electronic apu. We actually have my eye on the t680 for are next tractor purchase. the table and swinging chair seem important.

[@k3iler05]

Please do not get an electric apu.. Stick with the diesels.. Thermoking or Carrier.. Big thanks. A driver.

[@jimmyzourntos916]

Well done !

[@jonwallis13]

So those LIM switches are actually a speed limit the operator can set. Its pretty useful in moderate traffic when regular cruise can't be used. Just set to 60 and never get a ticket. The blank center switch is used to adjust the ACC following distance and PCC over/undershoot.

[@Sinerwray]

A manual limiter? That be useful I hate using the cruise control

[@can5projects563]

nice video and awesome truck

[@10Mandeep01]

beautiful design.

[@theoregontruckerT880]

I think it’s awesome definitely an improvement to the T680. Can’t believe KW is still using incandescent lights in the headlight section though when I drove a 680 I replaced the incandescent lights with LEDs looks way better

[@allisonlane1102]

LEDs are optional but I wouldn't expect to see a lot of companies go with them. But owner ops will at least have the option to.

[@williampowell2722]

the incandescent light bulb gets hot and cuts down on ice build up in the wintertime

[@Outlaw_1320]

Hey brother man, great intro set up. I honestly prefer the 2022 Cascadia's digital dash set up and infotainment. I was thinking of leasing a 2022 T680 awhile back but glad I didn't pre order one. The only thing I do like is the larger turn signal and side vent. Cool look.

[@billdaa1]

Nice truck Like the intake I only get to see parts we paint and go to the Tech center I did paint some 1 piece steel bumpers so maybe in the future

[@lungelinecowboy]

Love the new look. Under the hood looks like a cluster to work on though. Bet to do a top end set up that coolant tank needs removed now. Change a turbo got to remove the washer fluid reservoir. Nice thing is they don't look like they take long to remove but at the current shop rates it adds up. They need to bring out a bigger fridge for the long haulers inside. It's about time we got some new tech inside. It's been in the automotive sector for years so it should be pretty reliable. Great looking truck to pull dry van or reefer with.

[@brucekoster9253]

you forgot a word Chris....."cluster ****" .....I got ya ;-)

[@lungelinecowboy]

@@brucekoster9253 lol. Yeah that's what I wanted to say.

pretty base truck, i wish you had one with the nicer headlights and more interior options :O

[@MrTattoo5984]

Absolutely beautiful truck ❤🎉wish I had 1 tbh 🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻

[@O.thetuckingman]

Stunning is the best word I can use. Being out in California many dealers are saying up to 9 month wait due to chip shortages. Is this true? Love all your videos Andy.

[@jbellfarmer224]

The new styling reminds me of the T600 and T660 with just a more modern look as I never really liked the previous generation of T680s. Glad the aerodynamics are options because after those trucks are thru going over the road farmers can rip those off so nothing gets tore up lol. Can you get a manual transmission in these trucks? Overall this truck is really nice and thanks for the video.

[@hudsondonnell444]

I got passed by a FedEx Ground driver early yesterday morning and later smoked another one in the afternoon. Both of them were driving this new T680.

[@wojciechzgodowski]

Thank you Kenworth for awesome design. 2015 t680 exhaust pipe is blowing hot exhaust on the 1st drive exiles r/s break chamber all the times. Sometimes you go throu a break chamber once per month,. The abs sensor on that wheel won't last over a year. Because constant hot fumes keeping the wire extra hot.. God Bless Kenworth for their smart thinking 🤔

[@wojciechzgodowski]

It's smart because they'll get more money out of you for parts and repairs 😜

[@wojciechzgodowski]

The dpf sensors right on the DPF system. Wires always hot few years they dry out and need $1k+ new harness. ,🤔 Again god bless Kenworth designers. Because they're probably on weed when designing those trucks.

[@tomgoyak8441]

Beautiful truck

[@abeduamorgan2168]

Looks like the old Gen T680 had a baby with a Cascadia with strong KW genes

[@greghampton71]

For access to the catwalk and air lines I'd like to see them add steps on both sides instead of just the driver side. Just a convenience option. Also, when I close my front curtains I find that the track doesn't allow the curtain to move as easily as I'd like it to. Sometimes I have to fight with it to get it to slide. Other than that, I will be getting a brand new 2023 t680 w sleeper cab hopefully next week and I am excited to see how it's different than my current 2020.

[@everetteboulware2854]

Can you still get the dual stacks behind the doors and both hooked up?

Fav kw is w9l and I think favorite truck in general for me is the 379 I have driven all and there's just something about the Pete especially when customized that turns me on. I'm actually going to be buying a friend of mine 2003 customized Pete 379 and it has a cat 6nz and he's totally rebuilt everything in it. It's unusually nice. And he giving me a great deal of 55,000.

I hate aerodynamic trucks but having said that this one looks pretty good. With that much paint on the front it should come standard with 3M to protect it from rock chips. And I can see that "bin" type looking compartment in front of the front wheels filling up with icy slush on winter roads!
