    The 760 is supposed to be a 70 inch sleeper as opposed to the 670 which is a 61 inch bunk. The 760 cab is a little wider than the 670. The lower part under center of the dash sticks out farther than the dash in the 670. In the 760 ya have to lift the bottom bunk up to access the under bunk storage. What i wa referring to space size is the passenger side closet. They let us have them taken out if we wanted them out in the 670' s. They won't take them out of the 760.

    They have the dinette or the reclining bed? I’d love one of those Volvo’s with the reclining bed, what a great idea!

    Yea the reclining bed would've been nice but alas the owner of our company didn't spring for the top of the line features. Our 760 ' s don't have the reclining bed nor the fold off the back wall work table. None of our trucks have stereo speakers in the bunk either. If i owned a volvo I'd have a 860 globe trotter with all the bells and whistles.

    But then again if i had the ways and means to buy my own ride I'd have a pre eld big hood pete or kw. Just cuz I'm not a huge fan of big brother and their electronic babysitter on the dash. I stopped needin a babysitter at age 11. Govt needs to get out of the nanny state business an stop tryin to hold everyone's hand.

    I don't so much blame the government. I more blame the irresponsible that gave the government ammunition to do this. People never remember the millions of good drivers, bit they remember the 15 bad ones.

    As far as volvos go, I actually like them in terms of drivability. They aren't the best looking trucks or the loudest ones like you would get in old school Petes or KWs, but I like the features and when they are not turned down, they are deceptively powerful. My last company had a fleet of volvos and I think they're the best trucks on the market when it comes to work purposes. Many will dispute that on here, but hey, everyone has their reasons for what they like

    The govt interferes in every industry it can, regardless of cause or not. They steal your rights, then sell them back to you as privileges, then tax you on enacting your right that they turned into a privilege then expect you to thank them for it.
