Hi! All in all, I’d say very well done, but since you asked for corrections, I’ll offer some.
The orange trim is too bright. I can’t remember the exact shade of orange they used, but I could probably find out. Navajo has since gone to all white trucks primarily, although the original intent was to have the same livery, but to use a wrap. Only one truck was ever done this way… I wanna say 3206 or 3207, but I’m not 100% certain. Don Digby Jr. wasn’t impressed with the wrap job they did, decided he liked the all white look better, and it was a done deal from that point onwards. However, 3172 would have the original livery painted as shown here.
I can’t see details of the California emissions sticker, but it should have a Cummins logo on it. 3152 – 3205 were the first batch of T680s – 2014 MY – and were powered by a Cummins ISX15 @400 hp,. mated to an Eaton-Fuller FRO16210C 10 speed manual transmission, and turning 3.36 rear end gears with 295/75R22.5 tires on Alcoa aluminum rims. From the factory, they had Bridgestone virgin rubber all around… I want to say M710 for the drives and M720 for the steers, but I’m not 100% on this. Replacement steer tires were recaps… Bandag Megatrek 220, Michelin XDN2, and Michelin X Line Energy treads (the latter being the most current to the best of my knowledge) being the most common. Steers were always virgin, and the Michelin XZA3 was commonplace, eventually being phased out for the Michelin X Line Energy D.
3206 and up T680s and Pete 579s are powered by a 455 hp. PACCAR MX-13 engine, and originally came with the same FRO16201C transmission. Then for a bit Digby decided to with a 9C transmission… RTLOC16909A if I remember correctly, and some were later given the 13 speed conversion for senior drivers. Also, four with Eaton Fuller 10 speed AS transmissions were ordered – 3238 – 3234, I believe – and then the autoshift became the norm in 2015… first, the Eaton-Fuller 10 speed AS (can’t remember the nomenclature of it), and last year they began buying them with the (much better, IMO) PACCAR 12 speed transmission, based on the ZF-Meritor transmissions. Line haul trucks with the Gen 2 PACCAR engine and manual transmissions run 3.08 rears, while the ones with the autoshifts run 2.64s(!). The Rocky Mountain Doubles trucks are T680s and now some 579s with the short sleeper, and those run an AS with 3.36 rears. They can be distinguished from the Costco dedicated five axle units by their lack of an auxiliary power unit (APU) on the right hand side of the vehicle.
Navajo’s T680s never had those lower windows in the sleeper.
They also don’t use full wheel-to-wheel fairings – the fairings cut off at the end of the sleeper, exposing the very rear of the fuel tanks. On the left side, there was originally a chain rack. Prior to being taken out of service (which all the 3152 – 3205 trucks were within the last year, save for a handful that went into the lease-purchase program and still remain in it), that would’ve been replaced by a chain box with steps on the exterior, due in part to driver complaints of difficulty getting onto the catwalk, and also us having to cut down the exhaust pipes of the Carrier ComfortPro APUs to prevent drivers from stepping on them to get up there.
The right side between the fairings and the first set of drive wheels would have an auxiliary power unit. The first of Navajo’s trucks to have one was one of the T700s they had previously, then they expanded that pilot program to include the last of the T660s. With the introduction of the T680, all line haul trucks from that point on had APUs, with the exception of the “heavy haul” fleet (which, having experience in true heavy haul, I find the use of that term laughable). Initially, it was the Carrier Comfort Pro (which is what 3172 had), then they went to the Thermo King Evolution, beginning with…. I can’t remember the unit number, but I believe it was in the 33XX series. I was still working there as a full-timer when that change went into effect, so it had to have been introduced before October of 2015.
There was no orange used in the interior… it was all grey/beige.
The holes in the rims were all round.
Also, all of Navajo’s trucks have sliding fifth wheels. The tubing going to the fifth wheel release is visible over the top of the frame rail, and is normally grey in color.
All in all, a really well done job. Excellent attention to detail with the various decals on the truck.
