OT: 625 HP and 2000 ft'lb Torque interest you?
http://www.tnn.co.uk/WorldwideNews/p...-04.1909621954
Volvo VT880 - $150,000 Cdn.
Got to drive this beast yesterday... oh man!
The power numbers are staggering but once you jump inside, you feel like
you're in half million dollar RV. Leather everywhere, burl trim, monster
bunk etc. So quite and smooth, it feels like a Cadillac Deville to drive.
Volvo takes a lot of heat for not being "a real truck" but even the most
staunch traditionalist would be giddy as a school girl after taking this
behemoth for a ride.
