Why do so many Americans hate European trucks?

It is to stop compagnies having cheap drivers forwich they don't have to pay benefits or social security.
Where have we hearded that before??

Hint L/O.

 

here leasing is mostly financial, rare operating.
in recent time it is common than cheap brands offer complete package, you get truck, insurance(normal +risk), registration, extended warranty and maintanance....in single month rate, so you dont have to think how to sell it. companies usually take them with only 25% of inicial participation, which is equall to amount of tax, so after 1 month you get money back. this does not make sense to do on expensive brands only on cheap ones that are hard to sell and lose value soon anyway. some people still buy trucks with cash.

 

I guess your silence means you have realised you dont have same dashboard, but have problem to admit to yourself you were wrong, and that i am actually one that use facts?

 

What brand is that?

 

tatra, from czech republic, use daf cab and engine , zf gearbox, paccar have some shares inside.
they were simply too small to be able to stay on market, altrough they wrote somewhere they will make air cooled euro6 engine that seems to be difficult.

they are making only AWD trucks, best in world, nothing else can come even close.

dont have frame, but central tube, inside are placed differentials, transfer box drive shafts, also it does not have rigid axles like normal trucks but instead using independent suspension, they have something like subframe, that is attached to central tube to allow instalation of bodies.

they are famous for making military trucks,

if i am right they were also possible to buy in USA for special offroad tasks

 

Nope . How many million miles have you looked at that dash ? Fact .

 

Now look back at that brand new model you were showing us .

 

0,

Truck was released in june 2011, so it is 6year 3 months ago, since production take 2-3 months even if you get one of first units this is round 6years
It is impossible to make more than 160 000km per year (100 000milles), reality is no more than 150 000km, that means nobody did make more than 600 000milles.

 

I have shown 2011 model, you are showing brand new model , which use few interior elements inside of ours 6year old model.
previously you claimed that 2011 actros (you described it "latest and greatest") uses same dashboard as 2008 freighliner,i guess that you are running out arguments , anyone with eyes can see it is not same
