Dang that's a cool Mercedes! It rides so smooth it looks like an RC car. Those trucks are serious, same with the MAN KAT trucks. I remember seeing something on a Kenworth that was used in Africa and had some wicked suspension and CTIS system, driving along a rutted road with a trailer at 60-ish mph. The stuff we don't get here in the States is saddening... Like a Mercedes G-Wagen. The real one, not the chromed rapper-mobile AMG.

Mercedes makes great Trucks.
But the Components they are made of are crap....
If you want a reliable Truck in Europe you buy a Scania with a V8Engine.

You can go fast.
I can go anywhere.
