    The Quester is more like the court Jester of trucks, about par for Volvo's interest in putting trucks in the market that will not only sell but meet the needs of the consumer. UD under Volvo's command are so over priced in the US & under appointed most customers who would have considered the UD instead customers in the medium duty market continue to flock to Navistar, Mitsubishi, Hino, Freightliner & Paccar's KW and Peerbilt offerings. All these other manufactures figured out quick that to sell a medium duty truck, it really needs to look like a medium duty truck. NOT class 8, with lighter parts & no power....

    Vinny, you are becoming quite the Mack restorer, with a specialty in U models. She looks just fantastic & when she is all done it will be a show stopper. Where are you going to keep it during our wonderful winters? Keep going man, very inspirational. Rick

    Looks very similar to the Western Star's & Kenworth C-550's that Mammoet is running ( and has been for a long time) up in the Alberta tar sands support. Imagine that even though F-liner is owned by a foreign parent, they are still able to design & built there own to suit the local market demands.

    There is a Holiday Inn express in Lititz, but unless you are made of $$, it is a bit pricey at $149.99 a night, for 2 adults in 1 room. The breakfast is typical holiday inn fare, OK but not great. We are staying at this holiday inn ONLY because i am staying free by using points. If you google lititz & take a 15 mile radius there are many good to great options surrounding the area. Rick

    Good to see the point of view from the others, sorry you are in a POS F-liner COE. Rick

    Us "Off-setters" & Non-symmetrical types need to stick together!

    Fantastic Vinny, That is going to be one sharp little U when it is all done. Best looking trucks all have off set cabs! Rick

    OTC is once of the few remaining US companies that continues to grow & thrive regardless of the rest of the nation. In their history of buyouts & acquisitions, every addition has dramatically increased the global position for OTC to continue to grow. Also, each of the acquisitions have shared in the growth their respective brands.

    Great pics, especially the blue rigs. So how sore was "Medium's" neck after sleeping that long with little head support? 4 hours is a dream, 4 minutes is enough to smile!

    Yes, very expensive, and even the kits will arrive from Romania damaged. But if you really want the best, go twice size to 1/25 scale & start with one of these: http://www.aitruckmodels.com/pages/ck11macklm.html, or this one: http://www.aitruckmodels.com/pages/ck59macklmswl.html

    I used to be able to work outside all day in this hot & humid crap. Not any more. My shop & house is climate controlled. Very important especially in the shop when i am working with materials that are very heat & humidity sensitive. A 10 degree jump in temps & i loose a few thou in tolerance on the CNC mill.
