Volvo Trucks Press Release  /  April 6, 2017

Family-owned Finnish haulers Kuljetus S. Simpanen Oy must transport loads of up to 80 tonnes through thick snow and ice, and over steep, narrow roads. It is a tough assignment and it requires the toughest of trucks - in this case a Volvo Truck FH16 750 with I-Shift with Crawler Gears. “I have an almost perfect timber truck. If God made a better one, he kept it for himself,” says owner Saku Simpanen.
