Trucking in North America vs around the world

I didnt think they could have those in europe because theyre too long. Why is she wearing a scandia shirt in front of a KW? KW is clearly better

 

Except truck makes you less problems than woman

 

That depends.....

They are both problem....

 

My dream truck. Just to drive it!!! For the fun factor I would year some #$#$ up in this.
Red Bull I despise.

 

Mine is .87 overdrive, wanna go to a .73.

 

RTO 5,6 and 8 series (as in 125-13, 146-13 or 158-13) and RTLO 6-series 13 speed all have top gear ratio of 0.85/0.87, direct drive main box, overdrive splitter in auxilary.

RTLO 7 and 9 series (for example RTLO-16713 or 16913) have top gear ratio of 0.73, 0.86 in next lower gear. Overdrive main box, underdrive splitter.



To get to the 0.73 ratio with the older transmissions, you would have to go to a 9 speed overdrive, they are most all in the 0.73-0.74 range.
Or go for RTOO 5 or 6 series, which would give you 0.85 in 11th, 0.73 in 12th and 0.62 in 13th.
A 15 speed OD would get you in the 0.78-0.79 range.

I guess you want to stick to a 13 (or even 18), in that case go for a RTLO 7 or 9 series.

 

I visited their workshop/R&D end of last year. Quite impressive to see.
Profesionally run race-team, whereas for many of their competitiors it is a hobby (that got more or less out of control......)

I could make a few pictures from a corridor over the workshop, but they freaked out when I tried to make more detailed pictures downstairs in the workshop.
