They're actually made here in the US. Even the aussie trucks. But they're not available for purchase in the US which is bullshit if you ask me.....lol.
@@jamescaliendo1030 The K220 is optimised to run with the Cummins X15 Euro 6 and Euro 5 engines. The Paccar motor is no doubt an option but most go for the Cummins since the demise of CAT her in Australia. Detroit used to be an option but Daimler got a bit prescious a few years back. I've asked KW for more detailed specs and will pass them on when they come to hand.
@@truckinwithkermie2755 ok ok.. yes same here in the states.. we lost Cat in "10 and it's been a majority of Cummins. The Paccar just doesn't compare at 13 liter to the Cummins 15
So there is no more K200? So I'm guessing this is the replacement. I noticed how the roof is different with the arrow dyne. I see it gives more headroom! That truck is freaking amazing! If they made it in a left hand drive, I would have my order in for the US today. Now I do prefer the windows up top! Plus I like the older grill better with the bars. Overall she's a beauty!!!!
I wish they would. I feel that there is still a need for this truck here in America. Hell New York needs this truck bad as ever. All those type turns and little streets lol. I would definitely by me one with no hesitation.
They do make left-hand drive. The dealers did not want to market them in the US. Had one on display in Calif, but were pushed aside for the long hood that we can't get around in.
Love the new design and suck a good change up on the interior from her older sisters are they still keeping the king of KW the T909 and are they going to build a new king KW
They seem to believe that the desire for a cabover in thee US is not big enough to warrant producing it there and the truck is not designed to be coveted to left hand drive
The auto version, no problems as the 'shifter' is on the dash. In the manual its either standing on the driver's seat or coming in through the passenger side. Not ideal mate.
Killed the interior man. Absoloutley wrecked the k1, k2 series. Ugly interior, ugly grill, ugly aerodyne roof. They killed the kenworth. Get rid of the 220 and bring back the 108s
Miss seeing Cabovers here in Canada!
I have a 1985 K100E 90" Aerodyne that isn't so much different than these K220's. Glad Kennies' are still being made in Australia.
When you're on a good thing.... 😃
My old 76 K125 isn't that different either. I reckon those doors would still fit mine. I'm with Kenworth, why change a winning formula.

@@ethanfisher5789 hi Ethan. No, they're made here in Oz, at Bayswater in Victoria. Have been since 1975.
@@truckinwithkermie2755 ok as i understood it they were made here and shipped. My mistake. Lol. Thanks for the correct information.
We miss cabovers here in the states. This truck is absolutely gorgeous. I wish we could of gotten some specs. Engine, rear capacity and ratio, trans
Specs are made to order, kenworths are custom made here in Australia. Most likely a cummins X15
I'll dig some up for you James although, as Matthew says KWs here in Oz are virtually custom built
@@truckinwithkermie2755 ahhh man I'd appreciate that...thank you

Love it ❤❤❤❤ very beautiful
just gorgeous and that interior is truly captivating ;)
it just needs the slide out steps like FL had on theirs and THAN it's PERFECT hahaha
You can option steps that fold out
@@truckinwithkermie2755 REALLY?!?!?! :O I need to research this cause this is awesome! thank you

The 200 is no more. They dropped the overhead windows to aid sleeping they say. Thanks for your comments. Appreciated mate.
@@truckinwithkermie2755 I think they will be introducing the cabover once more to the NA market
I wish they would. I feel that there is still a need for this truck here in America. Hell New York needs this truck bad as ever. All those type turns and little streets lol. I would definitely by me one with no hesitation.
@@truckinwithkermie2755 still building k200 and will be into 2023 but yes eventually will be no more

Awesome
America , bring back cabovers!- love the limo style grille ! , THE Cadillac of Yank trucks?
COLOMBIA QUIERE QUE TRAIGAN ESE CAMIÓN PARA LA VENTA SERIA UN ÉXITO AQUÍ KENWORTH ❤

Looking forward great 👍 truck 🛻 kenwork great 👍👍👍👍100%
can you get one in left hand steering for the U.S.
Sorry mate. Made in Australia only in rhd
didnt notice a def tank...are they not running them in australia???
yeah we run def. You'll see the def tank behind the right hand steer tyre
Wheel base should be longer
A daf poderia trazer esse modelo pra ser vendido aqui no Brasil
Is there holdback from the US market a marketing play? Something's up. There's a huge market in the US and they're not accepting orders from the US?

@@truckinwithkermie2755 the floor on the RH drivers side is wider, engine tunnel offset to the left
combine International 9700 and freightliner argosy
If the Lord blesses me by winning the lottery, I'll do many good things and 1 is go to Australia to buy that truck and bring it to the U.S.
What no american series , nice rig needs a longer frame
Yeah, nah. Waste of space
Yes looks stuffed
Hey guy, at 2:14 a song came on that sounded very cool, would you have any information and title of the song?

@@truckinwithkermie2755 fold the gear stick out of the way if it’s an issue lol?
Fold the gear stick down
It's tradition.
Wheres the areodyne windows,?are they an option
Kenworth dropped them. I don't believe they are an option but I'll check
Hope they haven't stuffed this up like the 410s and 610s
Looks good but still old fashioned compared to European trucks
notice the AUS language ends in aahEEEE??? total change in culture,,,,,,,,,, since 97'
dear kenworth the europe trucks appear nicer
This is nothing compared to Volvo and Scania
What? No Actros? 😀
Maybe a dog turd?🇦🇺
