Why do so many Americans hate European trucks?

it is serial equipment on sleeper cab MB actros/arocs(and i am having lot of problems how to omitt it), for day cab it is an option.
mirrorcam instead of classic mirrors is series on actros with long cab, option on actros daycab (no longer called antos) and arocs. adr trucks at this moment don't come with mirrorcam, mirrocam not possible with halogen rotation beacons (only LED possible)

 

I had made a typo, had already been corrected when you wrote your reply. It's very simple, three driven axles, wide spread tandem, that's 3 x 11.5 tonne = 34.5 tonne.
Type number 3335 means 3 axles, of which 3 driven, GVW 35 tonne.

 

This truck will not be used as a tipper very much, as you can see by the knuckleboom crane. It's more a kind of all purpose truck.

Although there are small 2 and 3-axel tippers for small jobs, the real work is done by 4 and 5-axle tippers in the weight range of 40 to 50 tonne (88,000 to 110,000 lbs)

 

does not matter, specific density of material is still same no matter how much axles do you have.
should be larger.
i use rule that tipper has to be at least 66% in m3 of payload in tonnes.
of course you cannot apply that rule always but you will not fail with it

 

I've been following this thread for a while now and I'm still not sure if this is a technical discussion or a p*ssing contest.

From 35.6 to 41.7 tonnes depending what part of Canada you're in.


The first modern Euro cabover.


Real truck , (1966 kw), no plastic anywhere except 1/4 fenders, 15,000 lbs full of fuel with tarps, chains, binders, tools and accessories.

 

This is also a GINAF X3335 S, but this one is build for more m³.

 

A rotator. You don't see them very much in Europe. As soon as a more serious crane is needed, real cranes are used like this fire brigade crane:



This is a heavy 50,000 kg 10 x 6 GINAF wrecker:

Not quite, Ford Europe produced 8735 of these trucks between 1975 and 1984. It was quite a nice truck, but it seems the chassis was too heavy. Mechanics didn't like it either, because it was build with a mixture of US and European components, requiring metric and inch tools. It had a French Berliet cab, Cummins engine, Eaton transmission, and US axles as well.

A similar DAF FTT 6 x 4 has a weight of about 9500 kg, or 21,000 lbs. Do you think we have exceptionally heavy plastic in Europe?

 

Look Caesar no chrome...... ^^^^^^^

 

A good west coast wheelbase!
