A different truck every couple of weeks. Last one was a Volvo FH16.610 at 60 tonnes. Tried it at 40t too but that was a joke - felt like the trailer was empty.

At the moment I drive mainly for a truck rental company, so vehicles vary from vans & minibuses to solo units.
Fleet is mainly Iveco & Renault with a few MAN’s.

I’ve got a Volvo VN with a 500 Detroit and like Pat’s, it too has an Eaton/Roadranger crash box…give the Yanks another 20 or so years and they will be able to announce to the world that they have just ‘invented’ a synhcro transmission on a big truck! :smiley:
