Guess the Cascadia sleeper doesn't look bad on the 5700XE after all...

It works on the 5700XE for sure. I did a mock up a long time ago but your pic looks better. The 49x, no so much with the Cascadia sleeper. I understand why they are doing it though. Speaking 5700. I saw a red one yesterday. I haven't seen one in awhile but then again, I've been working from home for just over a year now so my commute to and from the office is rare.

*Rule 2.12*


Not gonna lie it does look good. Although it won't be like that. Wind shields, doors, side skirts, visors will change as well. But I prefer current version. If you ask why if next gen would be like that, it'll be easier to implement in the game. We have Cascadia and 49X as the cab that can be used for 5700. So as the players we get 2 different versions which would be great for us. But I don't think it'll happen so one of my dream would stay in the dream.

When the game released I wanted to drive current 5700 in Colorado. That was my dream.

Meh, to mockup is not great, the lower part of the sleeper is the original one because it has those caracteristic curved walls. Put the Cascadia/49x flat walls and it won't look that great anymore. :)
I have approximate knowledge of many things

It’s not the original one. I took the entire sleeper cab from the in-game Cascadia. My beginner level photoshop skills made it look that way. However, I liked the original sleeper’s window so decided to retain that alone :)

For some reason the original pic isn’t being displayed, so I’m attaching it here.

Yeah I do like the original windows better myself but Daimler doesn't see it that way. Much easier to use the same cab on 3 different truck models. Either way, when it comes or if it comes, I'll have a spot in my garage for it.
