    blue 12x10 with 4steerable axles

    white 10x6

    those trucks are very special

    hidraulic suspension make possible unloading on very uneven terrain without danger of tip over

    they give stability in driving

    good comfort

    lot of other options like weight indication lowering of truck

    ....

    also they often have torque convertors because of soft ground in holland

    also they have giant tires dimmension like 435/75r22.5

    and 325/95r24 on twin tires



    and now all manufactures offered hydraulic suspension and wide spread tandem
     
    Scania man Thanks this.
