    If you can't get a truck like that, at least don't be so hateful.

    You mean a pile of junk made out of plastic with a deserved poor reputation? I already got a truck like that. It sucked so bad i had to basically strip it and make my own with the bones.

    Sorry, but it has a very good reputation. You may ask the author of this thread.
    As far as I know, you're driving some kind of a junk.

    My 579, it has a weeeeeee bit of a history lol. As for volvos, every single person i PERSONALLY have known and every single one i have used have been cheap plastic garbage. Nothing like having a brand new truck with peices falling off and spending 6 months waiting on parts and then the new parts STILL not fixing it.

    Course in fairness thats pretty much any truck nowadays so eh.

    New dashboard might look like this Volvo truck from Europe. Paccar is digital dashboard and probable time for Volvo to go digital in USA.

    Dude, that is sweet. I love the tech and especially the shifter being moved back to the seat. Hopefully they made it adjustable. So many complained about moving from driver's seat to rear with the older seat shifter but it took me about an hour to fab up a new bracket for mine moving it 6" back and 6" down. It was in the perfect spot then and never in my way.

    Not sure why you say that? My 860 has been great other than a few issues when delivered that was very minor.

    Dang I guess I need to get me a track suit. Self employed is kind of like a 1099 I guess so I think I have that covered.
