Peterbilt Spotters Guide
The 386 and 384 replaced the model 385 which replaced the model 377. 386 debuted in 2005.
The 386 has a 126" BBC and the 384 has a 116" BBC. The 384 looks like 386 but the grille/crown stands straighter where 386's crown leans back. 384 also has a larger secondary fender piece between the hood and the lower fender.
