    Shouldn't have reacted that way! If a euro truck gets sold in the US they are not restricted by length laws so they will increase the size of the cabs so that really isn't even an argument!

    It's sad that Tatra fell under Soviet union after the WWII. They had some really amazing stuff in the 20s & 30s

    They had cars with self bearing body when other still used wood frames. Ferdinand Porsche (guess ever one know how this guy is) started his work for Tatra. His Beetel and 911 design are stolen from Tatra or more exactly Hans Ledvinka how was captured under the war.
    Take this axle design
