Cabovers

I agree it looks like a Foton truck.
They have been the worlds largest manufacturer of commercial vehicles for some time.

 

That is something that the Japanese still need to learn.If they could put Euro type cabs on their COE I would be pleased.
I have to say that our Japanese trucks UD Nissan best , Fuso good and Hino good are our most reliable and trouble free.
Not by a small margin either.
Their cabs are however small and they don't come standard on air suspension so that is why they are not all we use.
Our drivers spend 2 to 3 weeks in their cabs and they are just to small to keep drivers happy.

 

All true, I have looked at that Hyundai Exceit(sp) and I really like that truck, wish we could get it (and get it serviced) here.

 

Lol I can see an Isuzu Giga, UD GW470, Actros, scania and a Volvo, all in the one photo

 

sorry i did not saw your reply earlier,

that is pretty bad way, it would be much simpler if they chose scr , or do it like here ....

here actros with 13L engine was available in euro5 and EEV norm in 3 variants: 421 449 and 510hp, 476hp is only available in euro6

it have SCR+EGR but lower amount of gas are return , and there is no DPF

 

We used to run the united nation of trucks in our fleet but are starting to standardize now.
We still have.
Jap= Hino (Toyota) , Fuso (Mitsubishi) , UD (Nissan)
Euro = DAF (Dutch Paccar) , Mercedes , MAN
American = Freightliner , Mack
Korean = Hyundai
Indian = Tata

 

well, here we have all EU cabovers and ERF, BMC, Chinese FAW, DF and other....

US cabovers operated here are old K100, Internatinal 9600/9800, sometims FLA, Argosy.

New US cabover I can see on road are 9800i.

 

Saw this one at the Cannan, NY truck stop next to home the other day.

 

Well, that's what the Americans decided to use for their emissions. However, Cummins IsxE5 (euro 5 scr only) has recently entered the market.

The cooling isn't just for emissions. Try pulling 80+ tonnes through 30+ degrees c doing 100kph @ 15-16-1700rpm

 

Nice ride, but I"m not really digging the checkers. I like checking this thread once in a while to read about the Euro and Asian trucks, but seeing your post made reminded me I was going to submit a pic, too. We have two KW Aerodynes on the road, two mobile that are staying in the yard for now, and two that finally got retired for parts. This one is polished a lot better than it looks in this phone pic on a cloudy day. At least the truck is... The trailer needs some work.
