    Ive driven volvos, no thanks. I really wasent gonna get into this since this is another tomato to tomato thread but your money comment pissed me off. I see you canadians are all into vulvas and such, i frankly dont see volvo getting any better millage running over the mountains with a full load then a real truck. Comparing the two trucks a 660 with a 525hp N14 and a 379 with 550hp CAT running west both get between 5-5.5mpg, somtimes the 379 edging the vulva.

    And yes volvos are a nightmare with maintanance and issues.

    Oh yeah, look at the new vulvas, they are selling em new for more than real trucks, so dont go talking about prices, the dealers are just suckering most of them guys with the whole fuel millage theory.

    Comfort how? because every volvo I ever drove was a big ol slush box. The thing bobs n weaves better then Mohamid Alley.. you'r constantly fighting the wheel because they float all over the place. Ya, it may be smooth to your butt, but it's extremely tiring. And god forbid the wind blow then the bumper practically drags on the ground from leaning so bad. Like I said bud, if that's what trips your trigger then i'm glad you're happy.

    I've run or researched most all the aero trucks and the volvo come in far below any of the kw's when it comes to aerodynamics. the freightliners if they have the full aero packages are pretty much on par with the volvo's
