Why do so many Americans hate European trucks?

reminds me on dutch vredo

well this is not real thing, there is no compatibility

 

Personally I love euro trucks!

I love the sound of a scania

I love the look of the actros

The worlds most powerful truck is a Volvo FH16 and second after that is the Mercedes Actros!

Anerikkkans are just fat insecure bigoted ####s who are afraid to admit anything is better if it isn't American.

And this is coming from a born and raised American.

Real Americans buy things that are of any nation cause America was BUILT with people from ALL nations!

Anybody who differs isn't a true "American"

 

Now I've worked a bit on European built construction equipment. Honestly from what I've seen it is very subpar when it comes to reliability (at least in the northern region of Canada where I am anyways). Lots of wiring issues and burnt circuit boards. A few machines came with a Mercedes engine and even plugged into a block heater all night they would struggle to start when the temperatures dropped below freezing. We retrofit many of them with Proheats and Webastos and it helped a lot but they never seemed to cold start as well as Cats or Cummins.

A lot of our equipment has those little Deutz diesels. Those are among the best small industrial diesels I have seen. -40 out, not plugged in or anything. Just 0w-40 engine oil. Cycle the glowplugs 2 or 3 times and they fire up every time. Only issue we seemed to have was valve seals popping off in the cold and that's a relatively quick and easy fix.

 

I feel I have been more then fair . Up to 7 months ago had His and Her Benz in the drive way . Have owned many European trucks. But if some states some untrue as fact , they will be proved wrong. That make a untrue American ?!?

 

But was still a Oskkosh? Get over it man. About like me saying the BMWs made in SC are better then yours. And if you buy a X5 , it came for SC.

Not necessarily bigoted American attitude. We were once a entire Manufacturing of a Free World, what little there was left of it.

Europe has done some nice things. But the United States and other free countries, Ah, they really did some stuff now and then.

IF there is anything to be bothered about is that we have specialized in drivel, Coffee, tattoo and massage palours for those who are super stressed and unable to function.

 

I have no idea what you mean.

 

The Volvo has 750HP, but I think you forgot the Scania R730 (730HP), since the Actros 'only' has 625HP.
