Hot Wheels Kenworth T600: Casting Info & Complete Collector’s Guide
The Hot Wheels Newsletter catalog files Kenworth T600 as a related casting beside Big Rig, with four documented entries from 1996 to 1999. This guide follows that separate catalog family: two 1996 silver Race Truck releases, a 1998 purple Treasure Hunt and a 1999 gold-and-black Final Run.
The truck is identified as a Kenworth T600 or T600A in the release records. One 1996 card carries a Ford LTL name error; the truck remains a Kenworth T600. The original Big Rig family has its own separate nine-entry guide.
How to identify a Kenworth T600 release
Start with the year and toy number: 15219 for the two 1996 Race Truck issues, 18817 for the 1998 Treasure Hunt and 21341 for the 1999 Final Run. The body finish and package name then distinguish the matching issue.

Collector notes
Keep the card name and truck name in separate fields when cataloging the Ford LTL mislabel. On the loose truck, compare the number 11 race graphics, Treasure Hunt decoration or Final Run graphics with the year and toy number.
