  • The wider cab allows for improved entry to the sleeper and improved three-person seating in the day cab
  • The cab has been lowered by two full inches (compared to the Model 579 and Model 567), giving the Model 589 a more aggressive stance, easier ingress and egress for drivers and improved clearance to over-cab bodies
