    Local shaker dealer has 3 or 4 on the lot right now (Agrosy). All for Manitoulin Transport to use as a super truck. I might be out near that end of town this week, will get a picture.

    No new pics online of the truck setup to run, maybe swing past the terminal to get a shot too. :)

    Scania is builds it's Mexican market buses to meet DOT and ETA standards. I would assume the trucks are as well.

    Freightliner has improved a lot over the last few years. I'll put a Cascadia that's set up right up against the KW and Pete. At the end of the day most Class 8 tractors are the same.

    Cabovers are crap. You want them so bad, be my guest. I've driven a few.. GMC Astro, International (US and S. African 9800s), Scania R470, Volvo FH12, Foden Alpha.. I cared for not a single one of them.

    Freightliner completely redesigned it from top to bottom. Everything about is better.

    I understand where you're coming from, but I'm not really swayed.
