    Had a 84 volvo (euro coe) good local truck! But otr here it was out of its element! Great truck just not for otr. Fully sync trans, any body who could drive a pickup could handle it.

    The little volvo coe that was imported in the 80s was the small truck intended for light to medium local work. The heavy duty clas 8 long distance coe volvo was never imported to the US. The Euros had the F12 and F16 volvo globetrotter, one with 12L engine and the other with the 16L. The 16L had kikass power in those days. Volvo and Scania always had the most powerfull highway trucks in the world.

    it is very questionable

    just one example nato is supporting kla terrorist organisation , and complete "country" of kosovo is based on crime , human and organ trafficking as well as drug trafficking for whole europe and more ...

    where in the world is prime minister boss of mafia which deals with money laundering, smuggling of cigarettes, weapons, drugs and human organs ?

    and yes nato is responsible for this


    this is what happens to you if you are from country which dont support kosovo


    they beat you kills you take your truck crash it and many more....

    wow! That is what the shiptar do better, isn't it?

    That's cause of UN decisions and politics! Ya, agree NATO F't up big time doing UN crap, and now guess who's getting the blame?

    I know, I was there, not in Kosovo, but in Bosnia, same shi t.....if you'd ask me.
    It's like we made a pact with the devil!

    It is a complete travesty what happened with Yugoslavia! Mainly cause of all y'all over there and then, the UN finished it off into a nightmare!


    Brakes my heart to see what those animals ar doing to the drivers, their trucks and cargo!

    sorry i cant talk much my english skills are not that good i can understand only basic english not slangs and something ....but basically i did understand

    i am very sad because my country is in nato , but as much i know they cant call me in duty since i am bosnian citizen also

    been in kosovo last summer and in best case they dont want to talk with you, because they are thinking i am serb ( we do look same and have very similar language as serbians) and they easy make mistake and think you are serb or bosnian( bosnia did not support kosovo)

    I think that "shiptar" is what the serbs call the albanians. Well, I could be wrong........it's been a long time.....

    Well, I got allong better with the kroats and the serbs in bosnia when I was there, then the other kind......if you know what I mean.

    PS: it didn't matter how much evidence was colected to the contrary of UN's decisions, it had to be done the way the UN wanted it. TOTAL BS!
