There are rich supple leather accents on the door, steering wheel and seats
Displays and controls are elegantly adorned and easily accessible to further enhance the feeling of convenience and luxury, all while delivering on the roominess customers desire

The wider cab allows for improved entry to the sleeper and improved three-person seating in the day cab
