Which is best, ProStar or Volvo?

I drove both at knight and I'd take the Volvo.

 

When I picked up my prostar
, the curtins for the side windows were under the bed. There was a rug/mat for the sleeper area floor also.

 

As a 5-yr Express driver for Knight, I drove Centurys, Volvos, & Long/Short-nosed Pete Ultracabs. Liked the Volvos best (Centurys & Volvos both had similar tight turning radius) altho the Petes were a great 'machine.'

Are the Prostars similar to the Volvos inside as far as being very driver ergonomic---Volvos drive like a car...?),

 

My wife cut some Felt to the size of the Screen and it stick to the Velcro just like it was made for it. and yes at night if you don't have it covered, you can see in the truck.

 

I drove both while at Knight, the Prostar had a better ride but it's engine brake was pathetic. The volvo's where all around the easiest to drive and once you found a good one where reliable.

 

i just got back into a volvo had 185,000 miles on it..my pro star was at the international dealer for almost 11 days for problems....there gonna give it to a new driver they said i gotta keep the volvo...


the volvo has a bigger cab compartment than the prostar does....

if i stopped at a Truckstop & cleaned the mirrors with that cleaner thingy...the right mirror always moved on my last prostar & messed up the way i had it adjusted..so i just cleaned that 1 by hand with some windex

the new prostars have sumthin down in the fuel tanks that prevents u from sticken a stick or sumthin down in the fuel tanks, so u could probaly fuelup & shutdown....hopefully no1 wouldnt steal none...

The Top Bunk does not let up in the Prostars....u can let'em up in the volvos....

sometimes those screws'll come loose on the splash guards on the prostars...i went back inside a pilot and bought some more....

volvos- u'll have little green bugs or nets droppin down from the top....ull be wonderin where they came from...

 

Nets and bugs! Not my chob, Man!

 

I like my Volvo with the cummins engine. It has the oomph to go where I want unlike the prostars or those new volvos.

 

I drove both the Century and the Volvo when I was at Knight and I liked the Volvo the best, except for the Drivers seat. The truck ran like a dream and turned on a dime and looked really good as I got it with 90k on her. It was my first experience with the ISX engine and to be honest it was a great engine. But I was lucky enough to have a truck that refused to break down. I went through tires and oil and that was it. That century on the other hand I have never driven the Prostar

 

I will fight to the death to keep my volvo!
