Why do so many Americans hate European trucks?

I agree, there were rumours when the engine was first introduced, but then it all went quiet. Haven't heard about it in the last few years.

I guess Iveco think it is to expensive (for now) to make a true Euro-VI version of it. Sales numbers of high power Iveco's are probabaly too low to justify the cost.

But you never know. They may surprise us.....


Do Iveco offer the non-EGR 15 litre Cummins down under?
Or are they trying to sell the ProStars if customers want a 15 litre?

 

I’d have to see the cup holders before I can offer an opinion on this truck.....

 

The 16 Litre Cursor is already sold here in CNH Ag equipment, SO is probably wishful thinking on the part of Iveco Australia's engineers.. They really need the 16 Litre engine to have a Truck that is a true contender in the Linehaul B Double sector..

No, they never have..
They did sell EGR powered versions of the Bonneted Powerstar here. But the Powerstar was (very) quietly Discontinued 12 (Or so ) Months ago..!!

Yes, However ProStar sale have been abysmal.. The CAT Truck Fiasco, is still fresh in Peoples Minds, I think...

 

As promised, pictures taken from eye level sitting at normal driving height, seat set so knees and hips are bent at 90% angles. Then again with all air dumped from the seat.

As you can see dumping the air in the seat effects the visibility very little.

Edit to add: its hard to tell in the picture but the hood visor is see through. A barn owl broke the corner off and I've not been able to find an identical replacement.
