    Looks like its down hill to the scale. Wonder if brakes weren't set and it rolled down there driverless?

    Haha! Good one.

    I was thinking he just got pissed at having to pay $14.75 for something that wasn't worth the $12 they charged us for years.

    It was going on the scale from the wrong direction. Notice the speaker destroyed on the passenger side.

    Don’t those new truck also have automatic parking brake activation if driver forgot to set parking brake. I was thinking he forgot to set brake and got out of truck or something. That much damage that truck had to rolling pretty fast for truck stop parking lot.

    I hope Volvo would scrap that truck or sell it for parts. I would not want my new truck in accident being delivered. Then find out Volvo dealer repaired the truck.. seems like they must disclose that information or just scrap the truck and replace it

    Slap a red or white hood on it, tape on a new headlight and send it to Chicago.
