    Judges selected the truck for its exceptional handling, power, torque and outstanding visibility from all quarters of the driver’s seat. The judging criteria also includes innovation, design, safety, driver ergonomics and comfort.  Other finalists included the International WorkStar 7600 and the Peterbilt Model 567.  A panel of experienced truck journalists, plus a former member of America's Road Team, selected the winners.
