You can tell if you look at where the bonnet meets the cab - on the 6900 it meets in a straight vertical line, whereas on the 4900 it's curved slightly. The 6900 has a longer and flatter bonnet than the 4900. The 6900 sold in very few numbers compared to the 4800 and 4900 models. As for the year, this generation was introduced in Australia in 1998, but this particular truck appears to be newer than that, due to the headlight shape. Note: the truck in the first thumbnail is not the same truck as the others. That particular one is an early 1998+ model. -- Last edit: 2026-01-22 02:56:00
