The ICON 900 can be ordered in any color and comes standard with many chrome and stainless steel accessories to make the tractor stand out on the open road, he said. It features a distinctive chrome hood badge, stainless steel fender guards, upgraded headlights with special covers, under-door and sleeper panels, grille closeout panel, and large sun visor.
“LED panel lights mounted under the cab and sleeper panels, along the roof, and to the front and rear of the stainless air cleaners make the truck visually spectacular when running at night,” said Skoog. Amber LED side turn indicators and 4-inch sealed LED stop, turn and taillights emit a unique glow for a special ambiance.
“Inside, we have a custom dash plate showing the production number for this limited model. Also included are high back leather seats with special embroidering to signify the limited edition, the sofa bed is upgraded to leather to match the seats, and the dash surrounds and door pads are chrome,” Skoog said.
KW’s Icon 900 is available with 72- or 86-inch sleepers and engines with up to a 600 hp.
