First truck finally hits the road tomorrow for the first time.
Second truck today I did all of the decals, chrome hub covers, greased it, got the sticky crap off the windshield, etc.
Hopefully by end of the week I’ll have it’s plate, ELD, inspection, IFTA, I pass, prepass, etc etc all done and it’ll be ready.Oxbow, JoeyJunk, Speed_Drums and 8 others Thank this. -
I wish I could share some more pics but I’ll just say that my boy was a huge help. It was a really special experience my 5 yr old, myself, and my Dad working on the truck the last couple days. Means more to me then anything.

Well my 2023 Volvo 860 was suppose to be built tomorrow. Original build date was for Late Nov. 21 then got pushed to 1/27/22. Now they are saying 2/7/22 and was told a few trucks have been put on the hold lot waiting on parts. So hopefully that does not happen to my truck when they finally build it.

My FL that was seized at the border is sitting somewhere because the transport company let it gel up, too cheap to put additive in.Oxbow, JoeyJunk, shooter19802003 and 3 others Thank this. -

The last one I was at the dealer when it rolled in. It was covered in oil. The lead truck had its fill plug fall out of the transmission and covered everything in gear oil. From what the driver told me it was nearly empty when they refilled it. Imagine being the buyer of that truck and then have a trans fail real early because of that. My truck got extra attention for its PDI.
