Why do so many Americans hate European trucks?

Mercedes Zetros (6x6 truck) got small hood. cab is really shares a lot with atego cabin.

It is European conventional truck

 

Yes, but the Zatros is the big bother of the Unimog, a pure off road truck.

 

yep, it is big, like Oshkosh ore old ZIL 131.

The same class.

 

zetros is mainly build to be air transportable,

but i think it is something like medium truck, not large, small 7.2L engines

but they have recently present it with axor engine as tractor, cab is moved rear and installed higher , and seems like chassis is completely from actros

 

Yes, I saw it. Seems to me would be next model of freightliner.

 

This is clearly a military vehicle, a tractor for a tank transporter.

 

Is that still a HL7/hub reduction diff ?

 

It would no surprise me to find out that KRAZ also owned a universal joint production facility as well.

 

In the 70's and early 80's we used International Paystar trucks with 2 speed hub reduction Spicer axles if I remember correctly.
They were a lot of headaches as I recall.
We currently get Western Star with Sisu hub-reduction that is excellent.
