Sexy trucks
 
What's your favorite truck out on the road?

1st and foremost, my favorite and in my opinion, the sexiest truck around is the Volvo VN 780.

My 2nd favorite truck is the Freightliner Coronado. I don't see many of these on the road, but it's definitely a damn good lookin' truck.

I currently drive a 2007 Volvo VN 670. One of these days I'll be able to step up to it's sexy big brother, the VN 780.

Yeah.... the Volvo VN 880 is a sexy truck too! I have yet to see one out on the road. I did see one at a Volvo dealership a few weeks ago.

I know. I'm sick in the head. But I do like the new Cascadia. I like the full size aero trucks like the Cascadia, T2000 and 387.

Unfortunately in todays business world, the extra fuel cost(probably 6-8k per year) outweighs the benefits of a better looking truck. Also considering the apparent drop of quality in the "big hood" trucks in the interior, the choice is a simple one business-wise.

If you get emotional about what truck you want to have, and don't think of it in $ wise, it could cost you!

Oh well, to each his own. I don't understand why anyone would want a NEW long-nose truck. But I can understand and fully agree with a guy with an older long-nose wanting to keep it. No payments outweigh loss in fuel mileage!
