The major difference between the two was the massive aerodynamic facelift the T600 received, which resulted in up to 22% better fuel economy due to decreased drag. This meant that engines of about 100 horsepower less could be used, with knock-on effects in the form of lower weight which equals a higher payload. A better forward view was an additional bonus. Behind the hood, the T600A's cab structure was all W900. The axle was set back farther, allowing for better springing and eight per cent more turning lock. The T600A also received a digital dashboard, developed in conjunction with Boeing."@en }
