I actually like the 589. It looks nice. They didn't take all the classic 389 look for it. You can still customize it and have the classic look. Seems like less gauges on the dash also
Congratulations Peterbilt, you just killed a legend! Turing to replace it with a printed legend, your paid people saying how much better it is than the 389, the roomy cab, oh that is better, no, we like the 389 cab. We like the low roof in the 389 cab, we like a straight hood nor a slope wedge shaped hood like on the Western Stars 4900EX .
Aside from the 589, them MX-13’s have an awesome engine brake. The braking power wasn’t limited to just high in the RPM range, but also thru the mid range. I used it in a heavy haul application too.
I'm not happy at all with the engine brakes on the paccar compared to my old cummins isx15, x15 blows the paccar out of the water on engine brakes and power. Wish the cummins had the longevity of the mx13 tho, my 2016 is at 900k miles on the clock and zero oil leaks, zero blow-by been very dependable...just laugh-able in the power department.
@@jamescaliendo1030 I currently drive a Freigtliner powered with a DD15. The engine brake on that doesn’t hold a candle to the Paccar in my last truck.
Amazing. "New" model with all proven stuff from the tooling and parts bins of W990s and 579's. Keep the 389 headlight buckets and fenders and everybody feels happy. Overcharge and reap the profits. Gotta' applaud the business model.
Hell of a lot better looking then the w990 horror show. Peterbilt needs to take lessons from freightliner and volvo on storage layout and room utilization. Went from an identical specd 579 as the truck in the video to a 388 single bunk with all the storage options available. 579 was jam packed everywhere and the 388 had vastly more use-able storage even with its older design. I do see they put the 388 hood on the 589, glad to see they kept that beautiful hood.
@@TheRoadhammer379 The big bunk burgundy and black 589 in the video has the longest hood similar to a 389, the two tone brown truck has a regular length hood similar to a 388 and the daycab truck definitely has an even shorter hood. By the way, it's NOT a setback axle truck as the guy mentioned in the video.
I am a huge Peterbilt fan I like the new 589 the only thing that would take some getting used to is the windshield it looks kind of odd if you're looking at it from the side and I think Peterbilt could have done more with the sleeper than use the ones from the 567 and 579 and stick them on the 589 but other than that it's a badass truck
Looks much more traditional than the W990. Since the 389 was the only truck left on the old cab, and limited production numbers, it really was this or nothing, and I don't hate this truck at all. It'll never look as good as a 389 to me, but anyone familiar with the new cabs will know that it'll be a nicer ride for the driver.
The dash layout needs improvement needs the full gauge package kenworth dash is full of gauges peterbilt dropped the ball on that one nice set forward axle 579 I'm disappointed peterbilt I will never trade my 379 or my 386 for a 589.
Not nad looking for the new pete! But i would rather stay with my 379, cat engine, 18 speed, and 3:55 rear ends!! The two piece windshield and the vents glass door are more cooler than the one piece.
Personally it’s not as bad as I thought it was going to be. The windshield I’m not sold on but I remember back in 07 08 everyone said the headlights on a 389 looked horrible. Thank god it’s better looking than the 567 and the 579
The biggest thing I don't like is the dash, I wish they would have got something more comparable to the 389 dash. overall though not a bad truck. Looks just about like 389 at first glance, I'm glad they kept breathers and the west coast style mirrors. I wonder if the hood is as long as a 389 and if it's not a little bit wider with the wider cab?
I would really love to see the BBC measurements. Hood is definitely wider at the rear. I wouldn't be surprised if the hood is slightly shorter, and the same or similar BBC measurements, just a longer cab taking up more of the measurement. I always thought the extra 4 inches the 388/389 short hood and 389 long hood brought to the table over the 379 and 379 long hood were unnecessary.
They made them look right. That's the way trucks usually evolve. Much, MUCH better than what KW did with the W990. Are you watching this, Kenworth stylists?

Peterbilt has always used the same cab on every truck they make, it just took a while for this latest transition to be complete. When it went from the 359 cab to the 379 cab all the trucks were changed over in the same model year. It's been probably close to 10 years since the first 579s now.
That dark dash and guages in the daycab would look real good in the big sleeper truck. Them are good looking trucks, hopefully they have lots of room to move the seat way back without hitting the cabinet in the bunk

I have quite a few questions, is cab plastic? Is the sleeper plastic? Can more gauges be added? Can you get 2 full doors with windows on sleeper? And rear window with smallest sleeper ? How much?
Interior isn’t bad looks great especially the sleeper area. Cabinets are much larger love it but; exterior should of kept it classic. Slit windows will always be classic. Interior I can understand with technology but should of kept classic outside

It would look a whole lot better with a real visor - the visor looks flimsy and cheap. I would also change the headlights to classic round lights - haven't trucked since 1993 before i went into the Navy so not sure what DOT rules are now. looking forward to seeing you customize one.
Very nice looking trucks. I drive a daycab for a crane rental company in Houston. I didn’t like that the DEF tank on the right side, and the fuel tank looked like maybe a 60 gallon tank. Does peterbelt offer a extended cab ? That would be a nice then, so you could lay the seat back some and it would also give you more storage room.

It looks better than any ant eater any day. Those 379 and 389 only a real driver can handle one is going to be a truck of the past so we might as well get used to it. Looks better than any other Truck I have seen.
I cant help myself, but that thing looks weird af. My heart bleeds when i think of the 389 not being continued. 😞 To me this looks like a w990 with a 389 hood and headlights.
Looks like a pretty decent truck but at least they kept the standard look of a pete and they had there work cut out for them the 389 is a hard one to beet
Guess I've got to see it in person but I'm still torn. I read something about all this effort they put into it, I think that might have come down to somebody saying we could just take that 579 cab and slap a longer hood in front and only have to build the one cab. We'll slap a classic paint scheme on it and that will help. I will never like that huge one piece windshield.
No more having to adjust the mirror brackets to change out the breather filters. Will these new mirrors allow you to adjust them up and down as well as left and right? It’s hard to see the trailer tires with the current mirrors. Will this have wrap around curtains or normal 389 curtains? Nice new piece for the inside fender splash guard. Wonder if these mirrors whistle? Looks like we no longer have to deal with the leather on the door becoming unglued. Can not wait to see one in person.
I drove a 2020 579 day cab. Its the same dash set up and cab. This isn't an "Improvement" its just cutting cost of production. They should just call it the 579 long hood.
I have never seen Peterbilt push so much BS to try and convince Owner Operators that the new equipment is superior to the previous model. Its not superior, and it damn sure isnt "legendary" what an absolute joke
I wonder if the hydraulic clutch will a very welcome change for drivers and if it proves popular enough could spur any aftermarket kits to retro fit older trucks with hydraulic clutches?
I think it's air. When I took my test a couple years ago I borrowed a new 579 with an air clutch and it was nuts how light the pedal was, I wish all the trucks I drove were that easy. I don't do OTR and typically have to use the clutch a lot even without using it to shift.
