378 was the short hood to the 379 long hood.

No, there are 379 short hood and 379exhd long hoods. The 378 and 379 short hoods have the exact same hood length but the top of the hood is a little steeper on the 378 because the cab is 2" higher.

Slicker than a Yes album.
Avoid a 388. They ran the exhaust under the cab and it's attached to the cab like a KW. It rattles and it'd be nice to have it attached like the 379 and 389. Something about space between the DEF tank and exhaust pipes. Otherwise they are good trucks.
