Our New 2011 Volvo 780

I have one of their new volvos myself. I love the room in the truck. The split cushions are a little hard to sleep on but I got a couple of egg crates and it sleeps pretty good going down the road now. The only thing is, the crates slide on the cushions so you constantly have to pull them back to the top. Other than that I cannot complain about it to much. Pulls real good for me going up hills. Even though it is a volvo engine, it has pretty good power

 

Congrats! I've piloted a few Volvo's and their not my thing but if you guys are happy that's all that matters.

 

Oh if I was buying one I wouldn't get a Volvo. But, for it being a company truck I can't complain

 

I only drove the 670's and they we're way too small for me. Never had a chance at a 780 but I can guarantee that extra room would of went a longgg way.

 

A Cummins powered 780 was my second choice when I bought my Pete.

 

Man I have to say I LOVE the extra room! That's one of the best things about it. Especially because I'm a team truck. The more the room the better. I drove one of those older volvos and I remember them not being as roomy as they are now

 

Those Petes have awesome room in them also. When it comes to the room I would have to agree it would be a toss up between the two

 

Looks nice, great pics!

 

real nice truck i hope i get one soon....

 

780's in a nutshell.....

Most comfortable truck to live in hands down so far that I have drove.

BUT...... I would never own one due to the fact that the electrical ground system is always flaky and tends to shock you randomly on anything you touch, repairs are 10 times as long and 3 times as expensive on the ISX motor due to how it is setup, and there are so many high techie ways of doing crap in it that things fail on it ALL THE TIME! Get ready to replace entire wire harnesses more then you change the headlight lamps 3 to 1.
