  1. I know it's a1983 Cruise liner day cab working for the North Carolina based Food Lion super market chain. Anyone have details on it? What Engine?
  2. So can anyone give me any information on this truck. The roof fairing looks a bit unusual as I have never seen a similar type on a Aeromax daycab. Also the fuel tank fairing on the square type look a bit different than on the round type. The foot hole rectangle shapes appear to be different. I plan to do a model of it.
  3. The fastest way to search for trucks is to click the ideas tab, then search for ideas, newest, then click all categories, ground, then click all types, New development. You can vote for the same suggestions more than once, but only once a day. Vote often, the military guys have a lot of votes for their stuff.

  5. I think all Euro trucks are ugly. They all look like refrigerator boxes. The Stralis is less ugly, but ugly nevertheless. I understand Euro trucks are constrained by the regulations they operated under; length of overall rig, width of Euro roads, uniformity of the EU standards to name a few. Nevertheless, the boxy, short wheelbase and high cabover design has an awkward aesthetic.
  6. I think new Scania's are among the least attractive of the Euro trucks. That raised roof just looks ugly to me. As far as the most attractive current Euro trucks to me, the Iveco Stralis Hi-Way is among the best.
  7. The federal US weight limit is 80,000lbs. Many states allow 110,000lbs. There has been legislation offered in the US congress to raise the national limit to 97,000lbs. Many truck carriers would be happy with 150,000lbs limit. With the current condition of US roads, bridges and tunnels, I would suggest that they worry about fixing the national infrastructure first before they caterer to the trucking lobby.
