none that i am aware of at this time................

Volvo has driverside airbags and has had them as standard equipment since 1997.
-
i din't know this. i haven't driven a volvo, or even been in one, in over 15 years..........

At first I thought he was referring to suspensions.
Big trucks that I'm aware of don't come with those kind of air bags. -
i didn't think so either, but apparently, volvo does have them.........
-
yes volvo has them, and is probably one of the safest trucks on the road.
Motor is on a tray, which is designed to go under the cab in a ft impact accident, this helps further absorb the energy in a crash.
The some of the newer trucks have an electronically controlled stability system, that will help keep the truck under control in slippery, emergency situations.
1. Wear your seatbelt.
2. SECURE YOUR VALUABLES, They can kill you.

Interesting. The more I read about Volvos the more I like them. Most drivers i've talked to that drive Volvos now prefer them.

We have a older volvo in the yard at school, not sure what year but probably late 90's early 00's, and its my favorite. Its a big purple truck, we call her Barney.

I just wondered while watching the video, if the anti-roll works so well.. why is there training wheels on the trailer?
