I know the last b model and the last superliner are pretty well known trucks. Anybody know of the last R model built? As in true R model, not RD. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phase 1 Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 The production list lists three of them built until 1990, the R686R, R688R and R690R. I don't know what the last R is for. 1990 was also the last year for the RD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j hancock Posted July 7, 2018 Author Share Posted July 7, 2018 1989 was the last year of production. This truck was probably registered in 1990 and was written for that year. The R suffix indicates a right hand drive model with production continuing into 1990. 1 Quote JimIt doesn't cost anything to pay attention.
