    Scania Retarder

    Scania Retarder interacts with the cruise control, exhaust brake and wheel brakes to provide total speed control at the touch of a button or a dab on the brake pedal.

    Completely integrated with the cruise control, as well as with the service brakes and exhaust brake when cruising, a vehicle with the Scania Retarder provides automatic speed control up and down the hills.
    Retarder braking is either initiated with a dab on the brake pedal or controlled manually with the lever on the steering column.The gap between cruising speed and downhill speed can be set in small steps using a button on the steering wheel.
    When set to work automatically with the exhaust brake and the service brakes, service brake applications are reduced by up to 75 per cent and brake wear minimised.

    Looks like one of those Japanese mini hotels. Only even smaller. But I guess the bigger , stronger Americans require more space for their massive members.:yes2557: Like I said earlier . these builder design what ever their markets require and will bear. Would be night mare to drive large car in mini streets in a lot of Europe and rest of old world. And Cabover would not be fun for 3000 mile back and forth American driving. They all give drivers and companies what they want. Or as close as the tree huggers will let them.

    I think the photo just plays tricks on you. It looks like they just found the shortest person they could find and stuck him in the photo to make the truck look more spacious.
