Absolutely Volvo and it’s also easier to spell it also looks like it has a heavier load that’s why it’s on the Volvo.

Are you an enviromentist, or do you work for a living?

sure the kenworth is sexy I will give you that but lets look at fleet aspects. Kenworth does have the looks and by the looks of that drop axle the braun too. But whose to say that the Volvo isn't packing some power too. I will vote with the Kenworth for style and the Volvo for economical fleet aspect. There is a reason there are many Volvo and Freightliner Tractors on the road and that is Price point compared to the KW and Pete price. Oh bet the Volvo is Automatic too easier to run along the carpet of the Townhouse Expressway

JTL I definitely thought that line would have come up a lot quicker, I use to hear that line 4 times a day and the bad part for me was that it was just a really good line, and I still get a chuckle from it. Do me one favor though explain that line to Quinella thru a pm because I’m sure he is probably still looking thru medical books under woman’s anatomy for a certain part called a Volvo.
Steve

Quinella you are going to have to switch sides now because Freightliner and the “woman’s part” are number 1 and 2 when it comes to heavy duty trucks, and I know you know looks are not everything.
Steve


Barkerjoh the specs on a truck mean everything from axle rating to engine horsepower. Remember good looks won’t pull you out a hole with a fully loaded dump trailer in slick conditions, unless of course you are a good looking woman in a Kenworth and there is a man in a wrecker near by. Also Volvo does not sell to older “gentlemen” in an NC townhouse, I believe Freightliner will though.
Steve

I vote Volvo again, I’m from Broward County in Fla. so I should be able to do this.

Ken will you accept mail in ballots?

Kenworth for sure, Paccar is one of the last American based truck manufacturers (pretty sure Navistar will be owned Volkswagen one day). Only thing Volvo has going for them is that they own Mack trucks whose name is way more synonymous in this country with trucks than they will ever be.
