KENWORTH OFFERS LIMITED EDITION JAMES BOND 007 TRUCK, PLUS INTRODUCES NEW EXTENDED HOOD OPTION
KIRKLAND, Wash - It might not do a wheelie like James Bond's W900B, but Kenworth's look-alike, with optional Extended Hood, will draw more than a few looks of admiration and cause a few truckers to pull out their tape measures.
The Limited Edition James Bond truck coincides with the release of the newest James Bond movie, "Licence to Kill." In the film, Bond uses Kenworth W900Bs to pull him through perilous situations. The same truck, minus the 1000 horsepower engine required in the film, will be available in limited numbers at Kenworth dealerships beginning in September.
Ed Wallace, Kenworth's general sales and marketing manager, says the trucks are not "standard" by any means. "They'll feature the 007 paint design and a gold-plated Kenworth hood ornament, as well as a gold-plated nameplate on the side to commemorate the film," said Wallace. "In addition, they'll feature the most luxurious driver amenities we've ever offered, including a high powered (300 watt) sound system, with CD and cassette players and equalizer, and an entertainment system, complete with VCR and color TV. You won't find a more sophisticated or powerful stereo system anywhere. In addition, the interior is our top-of-the-line VIT option diamond tufted - fitting for this special truck."
The Limited Edition also introduces Kenworth's Extended Hood option, adding a full 10-inches to the hood, giving the truck a powerful, classic appearance. The Extended Hood will now be offered as an option on all Kenworth W900Bs.
Drivers who enjoy the traditional look, will now be able to have the latest in technology along with the bold appearance of the longer hood and the 60-inch AERODYNE sleeper (standard with the Limited Edition). "The Extended Hood celebrates classic trucking with a full 130-inch bumper to back of cab dimension."
"Coming out of the factory, the Extended Hood model will be the fanciest, most eye-popping truck ever produced by Kenworth. It's a beautiful truck," Wallace said. "We've designed this model to appear to the successful driver who enjoys the glamour of chrome and polish, and who appreciates luxurious amenities."
Extended Hood models feature power steering using Cat, Cummins or Detroit Diesel engines. Customers have a choice of 9, 10, 13, 15 and 18 speed transmissions. Featuring tandem rear axles, the new model also has Kenworth Air Glide 100 rear suspension for a smoother, more comfortable ride.
To make the W900B look more like a show truck than an over-the-road model, Kenworth have added lots of extra options. "We've added a substantial amount of bright work to really make it shine and stand out from the crowd," said Wallace. "Starting at the front , we've gone with a chrome-plated steel bumper and added dual polished aluminum fuel tanks, dual chromed exhaust stacks, a stainless steel sun visor and polished aluminum tool and battery boxes. To finish off the truck, we are factory installing stainless steel cab and sleeper light panels, providing quite an impressive sight."
Wallace also pointed out that the new truck, like all Kenworths, had hundreds of options available to match the truck to the customer's exact needs.
The W900B with Extended Hood can be ordered with a 60-inch VIT or AERODYNE VIT Sleepers, or it can be ordered as a non-sleeper tractor. Auteur : DingosGotMyBaby Tags: Kenworth Australian American USA W900L W900B Klos Custom Trucks  |

| Kenworth Trike - 331 sec Rock On Kenworth Trike
In March 2008 a machine like no other started to take shape in the Rock On Repair Shop. A wild and crazy idea was starting to be taken seriously. The Rock On Trike started its life out as a 1988 Kenworth dump truck, stripped of parts and neglected through out its usage, there wasnt much left for a work truck. The cab, dump box, engine, axles and related components were removed. The frame was modified and strengthened for its new design. Key features to keep were air ride, air brakes and to keep the old hood. The Cummin's 350 Big Cam IV
engine boast a whopping 400hp, putting it to the wheels through the Power Components clutch and Eaton 9spd transmission. For Kick's two polished beer kegs double as air tank's and an actual set of train horn's warns on lookers to move out of the way! This machine rides like a Cadillac on its air suspension and turn's on a dime with its one wheel power steering. Setup with a towing hitch to pull a modified sleeper, and Jake brakes for additional braking power. A chopped hood and custom grille enclose the engine while a stainless steel spoiler keeps the wheels planted to the ground. The Rock On Trike is a serious machine and has already been used for events such as the St. Joseph, MN 4th of July Parade and Chili Feast.

| Kenworth Trucks in Australia...they make 'em tough down-under - 114 sec Text to go with the clip: Some time ago a mate down-under sent Biglorryblog a DVD on Paccar's Kenworth operations. The title? As you'd expect with typical understatement: "Australian made. World's Best". So I thought I'd provide you with a short taster of it. Actually Kenworth has a very impressive market share in both Australia and New Zealand not least through its classic K104 cabover tractor which has been the mainstay for B-Double operators for years. And the Kaywhoppa bonneted behemoths are number one roadtrain fodder too. The Aussies have been building Kenworths at their Bayswater, Victoria plant since 1971 and have grasped that thing that many "global" truck makers often miss. Namely that there's no substitute for building a truck that meets the local market conditions head-on...rather than offer a product from a remote factory thousands of miles away.

| A Kenworth 'Great Lakes Special' roadtrain - 137 sec An excerpt from Nynehead Books' DVD 'Bulk Haul', featuring a fine Kenworth roadtrain.
Also seen at a crossing is a Mid-Michigan Railroad locomotive (and EMD GP38, perhaps - someone can tell me!). This 'short-line' railroad had a single 26-mile stretch of track from Greenville to Elmdale, and seems to have ceased operations in 2007.
