the difference between a North American truck and a Euro truck is that in Europe you don’t drive from a 110 degree desert to a -15 degree northeastern city and across mountains, high plains and changing weather conditions day after day.

One of my Sterlings had the washer tank on top of the radiator. Kept it nice and warm. I don't remember if it was the Silverstar or the carhauler.
-
That makes zero difference, I can buy a Land Rover, Volvo Wagon, etc. in Scottsdale or Anchorage with the same packages

My 2021 KW has washer tank on top of radiator. In cold weather the frozen spray nozzles are the weakness in the washer system.striker, Roberts450, gentleroger and 1 other person Thank this.

It will, but once you git the highway , put the heat on the floor and let the windshield get cold. The snow wont melt when it hits just bounce off. Have to keep the cab a little cool, but I just throw a hoodie on. If its wet snow, forget about it. Nothing works. But dry fluffy cold snow it works like a charm. You will get a little build up as it cools, let it, it will freeze and break off soon enough.tscottme, Hammer166 and Final Drive Thank this.

And remember to turn off the heat when you stop so it stays cold. Like you said, like a charm!tscottme and Elroythekid Thank this.

Can your Range Rover pull a 48’ trailer with 42,000 pounds of cargo?
-
No but it can drive in the the left lane long enough to watch 2 movies.RockinChair, striker, Tug Toy and 1 other person Thank this.

It's not about what it can pull, it's about the safety aspect. Those Volvo, MB, Mann, Scania trucks in Europe can order that same cold weather package, whether they are based on Spain or Norway, Siberia or India.
-
Yep, that's about right. Its even funner at night with headlight glair hitting you in the eyeballs.
