67RModel Posted Monday at 05:52 PM Share Posted Monday at 05:52 PM I wonder what Volvo trucks manufactured elsewhere on the globe use. 12 or 24V? Is it just a North America problem? 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/76377-new-mack-release-march-2/page/2/#findComment-590955 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Weeks Posted Monday at 06:06 PM Share Posted Monday at 06:06 PM I'd be interested in the reasons also. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/76377-new-mack-release-march-2/page/2/#findComment-590957 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard Europeans singing high praises to the European Volvos elsewhere on the internet, so I'd imagine that they're pretty good.

james j neiweem Posted Monday at 09:58 PM Share Posted Monday at 09:58 PM This thread needs to be split up into Bullheaded's New release March 2 and various comments about voltage. 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/76377-new-mack-release-march-2/page/2/#findComment-590967 Share on other sites More sharing options...
james j neiweem Posted Wednesday at 03:18 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 03:18 PM New Granite snippets sure look like the Volvo cab. Iguess they are saving the Mayflower cab for the MD's for now. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/76377-new-mack-release-march-2/page/2/#findComment-591057 Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my 40 or so years around trucks I have never seen 12 volt heavy trucks except for American made ones.24 volt has been the standard here in Europe for as long as anyone can remember.Even at the shows Iv brought the Cruiseliner to most guys are suprised its 12 volt...

Paul How do you guys handle trailer interchanging with 24 volt and 12 volt tractors? edit: I assume today, 12/24 LED's make it a non issue, but back in the day of your Cruiseliner? IHC I know could be ordered 24 volt from the get-go.
