    No for continuing this argument. I showed you yesterday where there are more affordable articulated trucks in your area. I suppose you don’t want to recognize that. Since if you do your whole argument falls apart.

    Let me give you a hint: the producer Dramis calls it a mining truck.

    Now please explain to me where this truck is road legal.

    No it does not. You compared the price of a new mining truck to the price of a used artic. Furthermore, the operational costs of a mining truck are much lower as well.

    The truck I showed you was 100,000 gbp less than the price you gave for a new truck. Yes it was used, but it was only 3 years old. I doubt it lost more than than 100,000 at most in value.

    The price you showed for the artic was £ 194,994 or US$ 253,493
    The price for the 10 x 4 Volvo was US$ 269,449.
    So a difference of US$ 15,956, not £ 100,000 or US$ 129,987
