Peterbilt vs. Kenworth - What's the Difference?

[@CrystalClearWith8BE]

Peterbilt and Kenworth are 2 of my favorite American truck brands. Kenworth used to be my #1, but now, Peterbilt is my #1 favorite while Kenworth is at #2.

[@C4AJ]

They are basically the same now lmao. The video didn't even tell you what's the difference because there isn't any really

[@zerocool5395]

​@Andrew Bartholomew It's like a Camaro vs Firebird. Same thing underneath, body and interior is a little bit different.

[@belalberry]

I drove both, kenworth will be my number 1 truck brand of all time

[@TruckTropia]

Thanks for sharing

[@kenardturner7173]

Most companies opt for the Cummins X-15 engine over the Paccar. They also prefer the Eaton/Fuller transmission, especially the 13 speed.

[@montesa35]

Isuzu vs Hino please. They are still marketing globally including Australia

[@ninthearth9746]

Would like to see Volvo and Scania

[@TruckTropia]

Planned to next week👍

[@sstevocamaro]

@@TruckTropia International and Freightliner

[@banurigopalreddy4014]

[@Seri-Katil]

Volvo is trash

[@BillyBob-uc9zp]

To be employed with Peterbilt, you have to be named Peter is what i heard. Apparently it's so when a production problem occurs they can say Oh For Pete's Sake!, and nobody get's in trouble. Clever system huh 😎

[@TruckTropia]

😂😂

[@qaseemlloyd-trapp6268]

i have a 579 and just love it. Very comfortable ride and good quality. Thanks PACCAR!

[@sstevocamaro]

It’s like Chevy and GMC trucks. Can’t go wrong with either one.

[@usovvlad28]

2024 Kenworth T680 with Cummins owner operator package, with FET is 215k

[@editimisescu7945]

I wanna see a vid where you compare the Freightliner, Peterbilt and kenworth.❤ Love the vid's

[@TruckTropia]

Thanks 👍

[@nickschmalenberg3249]

Both high quality products… spec either with a Thermo King APU from the factory! Save fuel by eliminating the big engine idle and keep really comfortable in the sleeper.

[@donnie2832]

I’ve heard the comparison of Kenworth being the Ford and Peterbuilt being the Lincoln.

[@michaelmills5972]

Always wanted to know this; my uncle was a regional sales manager for KW in Arkansas.

[@Rigby_the_Trucker_Pony]

I love both Peterbilt and Kenworth! They are my top 2, originally Kenworth was #1 but now Peterbilt is. I just like the way they look a bit better is all in my opinion.

[@mustafabaysun8041]

Peterbilt is a hiway truck. Kenworth is hiway and offroad heavy duty trucks. I know because I worked offroad myself.

[@FatalRanger-fo1gx]

If you’re working off-road get a western star. There’s a reason all log trucks are western star.

[@arthurbrumagem3844]

@@FatalRanger-fo1gxnot when I logged in Idaho in the 70s. But that was a long time ago.

[@rishavnandi6697]

Damn! Biggest thing is that u r still alive and ur fingers fit enough to type 🤣🤣

[@pakky9503]

Yes, more brand comparison please.

[@TruckTropia]

They are coming 😃👍

[@Fxrkzyn]

you should do a compare of kenworth w900 and peterbilt 389

[@laszlopalkonyay4133]

Since both trucks are the same Kenworth’s design looks a lot better! It is almost like the BMW or the Alfa Romeo of trucks, because it’s sleek aerodynamic design. Newer Peterbilts are also nice, however the older Peterbilts like the 359 or the mid seventies Peterbilt cabover were extremely beautiful trucks!

[@derrickodyes1934]

Id much rather a ol 9300 big bore international than either paccar products

[@AfaanOromostock-]

As a driver I prefer kenworth it's just more comfortable and also turning radius is much better on kenworth ,volvo

[@SuperImmunologist]

T600 is the truck I fell in love with as a kid then fld 120. The only Pete I like is the 379

[@AbhishekNegi-ig2ue]

After so many exterior interior videos It's great to see a proper complete video 🔥🔥 But i want you to answer (no diplomatic answers) if you are supposed to chose which one you would buy 🌚🌝

[@TruckTropia]

Peterbilt i Think 😅👍

[@AbhishekNegi-ig2ue]

@@TruckTropia same man 💀

[@Solitude633]

If you can afford the peterbilt then go buy the janky version called "The Pete"

[@skytyme7721]

Freightliner is garbage. I was driving a freightliner and it beat you to death on the road then it was put in a Volvo. There is a world of difference. Volvo is so much smoother.

[@SomeIdiotLUL]

Never tried a peter built, but the kenworth not a fan of the over sized hood or the degree of turn available for backing

[@JasonJones-ju5gw]

They are both my favorite but KW is #1

[@antor.j.medrano]

I love them both.

[@rsong6620]

Would like to see Mercedes and Fuso

[@Tazz-7375]

Would love to see volvo vs freightliner, especially the vnl 860 vs cascadia

[@TruckTropia]

Stay tuned 👍

[@dadsqch]

Drive a t680 for a few years. I'll take my Cascadia any day over a PACCAR

[@007drigo221]

How about comparing Western Star Trucks, Kenworth, Peterbilt and Mack trucks all together

[@briancasey4917]

I had Pete's in the 90s and then bought a KW. I Liked the KW ride better. Then Pete changed their ride, so either one is fine with me. I retired in 2013. All my trucks had Cat engines. My last truck was last year for pre def Cat.

[@samwenske]

Do another comparison video with Kenworth VS. Western Star

[@akeemceffalo101]

Got my class b with a 2003 Kenworth 6 speed box truck back in February 2017

[@TarielTavartkiladze]

What about Western Star vs Freighliner? (Both are Daimler) Mack vs Volvo VNL? (Both are Volvo?)

[@lucasread1743]

I’d choose peterbilt

[@belalberry]

It’s depend on how to spec those tractors

[@alirezajaleh6558]

I think you lost a bit of your innovation. In the past you compared the durability of trucks, specially engine. I think most important things to buy a truck are durability of engine and suspension sys, fuel consumption and repair and maintenance cost and the end engine torque and hp. It will become perfect if you review durability of trucks companies after 2 milion kilometer.🙏

[@magnuszerum9177]

Volvo bough Mack in 2000. I would like to know how they differ.

[@TruckTropia]

Will come 👍👍

[@detroit8v715]

I've always liked the way Peterbilts look over the way Kenworths look, especially the 389 compared to w900. The 579 to me looks way better than the t780. If it dosen't have exhaust stacks, then I dont like it or would buy it, regardless of maker. I would take either one over a Volvo, which are unreliable junk.

[@limitededition3295]

in eu volvo is the best among scania

[@kr9181]

Volvo and freightliner mostly fleet trucks. Quantity of these trucks on the roads can say something. Big companies don’t buy junk trucks. They know how to save their money.

[@antonpandoursky9790]

So,why not mention Cummins X15 like the only,but important other opinion if someone needs more power and serviceability 😁

[@firebuffandrewphotography]

I think they’re both good in their own ways

[@princemistry1079]

Kw comes with Cummins engine also

[@kenardturner7173]

Most Peterbilt's have Cummins engines also.

[@daviddavis8054]

Kenworth for me

[@Floris_VI]

I would probably go for the kenworth here if only its because i like its design more

[@ghostrider-be9ek]

in other words, "there are differences, but we dont know enough to be specific"

[@tony5269]

Auto Car vs Mack Dump trucks @Truck Tropia.

[@davidchapman1519]

If it's a KW the only choice is a 79' A model. And for petes, has to be a little window pete, unless we discuss needlenose trucks instead.

[@MoFarmBoy217]

at 2:45 they say torque of 1550 to 850... should have been 1850

[@animeghost12]

How about MACK Anthem vs VOLVO VNL

[@montesa35]

[@banurigopalreddy4014]

Freightliner is the best no matter how

[@jasgill7121]

Can you explain why

The Detroit Diesel engines are more reliable than the PACCAR engines.@@jasgill7121

It's marketing strategy. Exactly same product, just with a logo change and minor difference in the front grill. It's just to fool the Old times peterbilt fans on paying the premium over the Kenworth
