Those of you who drive the Volvo and have driven other trucks:
Can you compare and contrast it to the Freightliner Cascadia and KW? I've never driven or even been in a Volvo.
And are the ProStars single- or twin-screws? The single-screw ProStar is not a winter-friendly machine.

I drove FL Centurys, Pete 379's, and Volvos for Knight as Express driver...the Volvos & Centurys had about the same turning radius. The Volvos were more ergonomic and handled more like a car than a truck!
EDIT: Also, speaking of Volvo being 'ergonomic,' I started driving in 1999 in a KW and then went to FLD's. Volvo was the 1st to use a 'car-type' brake pedal rather than a 'shoe-fit type,' as well as a smaller, car-sized steering wheel.Last edited: Dec 14, 2014

As as I recall, I did like the interior, though my memory is a bit hazy since it wasn't my assigned truck.Last edited: Dec 15, 2014
