Looks like the New Peterbilt 579 is starting to roll off the assembly line.

The new 579 is growing on me.

Yes, it looks good. The old one with Ultraloft also looked good.

Agreed. The old one with Epiq max package also looked too good.

The roof of the 579 in-game is not even accurate. The real model has kinda sharp edges and a bolder look. Also those fairings are missing.

The 579 in game is absolutely rubbish, no offence, SCS. :)

if you ask me they might not remake the whole thing (some changes from a tuning pack) and just go for the new gen instead

If SCS does intend to add the latest 579, I think they will likely leave the current 579 as is, as they have done something like this in ETS2 (the Renault T comes to mind).

I find the current 579 model to be the worst in terms of accuracy, especially the chassis.

I'm noticing that they have a new steering wheel and instrument panel. Perhaps let us have that stuff IN ADDITION to what we Already have right now. And while they're at it, look at a wishlist that I posted a couple days ago or so.
Always keep the Greasy/Rubber side down and the shiny side up. Even if what is supposed to be shiny isn't shiny anymore. But still it's always better to stay on top of the wheels none the less!
