    My neighbor owns the last 359 built. 2 overhauls on the 3406, millions of miles, looking good and running strong. As it says on the back of the sleeper - "Classic". Nothing more, nothing less.

    Love that you mentioned the Film Black Dog, thats where I first saw the 379 as a kid and have loved them ever since. Incredibly rare to see any over here in the UK

    I used to have another truck before I got my 02 , 379 back in 2012. I don’t think I can can ever drive something else. The way she looks the way she drives, feels the loyalty. I think I’m in love with my 379. Thank you for making me fall in love again.

    Ive rode in Peterbilt 379s with my dad in my opinion they are the best id want one with a c15 cat or series 60 or n14 they are super expensive my dad and uncle say Peterbilt is the best out of all other trucks they driven. with proper maintenance good engine and care when driving they will last.

    The black silver and grey 379 coupled to the bullwagon at the end of the 10 was Anthony Seale’s owner of Seale Livestock in Tx! Known him for a little while and the drivers that have worked for him in the past!! Good guy hands down!!

    I sincerely hope that when the 389 is discontinued Peterbilt brings out a 399 that brings a couple of KW W900 features with it, while keeping that classic Pete conventional look.
    The integrated cab/sleeper, the larger sleeper, the slightly wider cab, the taller interior with a slight step down or flat floor.
    Disc brakes and air ride suspension all around, rust proofed and rock guard (to prevent chips and rust) on the exposed pieces including the underside of the cab. Keep the individual gauges, but make better use of the dash/overhead console space.
    If Pete goes towards the ugly W990 styling in an attempt to modernize, they will lose customers.
    The 379/389 is the best looking truck on the road.

    I'm still torn between the 379 and the W9. KW had more interior goodies (like my Studio), but the Pete had the looks (like my 379X). I miss them both.

    Before my uncle had the International, he too owned a 379. But sold it cause he wanted a truck that was like a “Airplane” And was aerodynamic. Such a disappointment.
