    Hi here is two of my trucks i used to drive, the green Scania have a total weight of 60 tons and the white Volvo has a stone crusher on and the total weight 72,1 tons. Fun to hear what you think of them.
    60tons = 120000 pounds 72,1tons = 144200 pounds

    I personally dont hate them. I guess maybe pride is what people go with. I envy the power eu trucks have. Not much the cabin space but seeing the roads are tight over there. We have houses on wheels here.

    Agree with you. Just that is the name of the other thread. What we have here , works here , but not there. We have the luxury of space.
