Garrett County, MD | One of our trucks is a Volvo with a Volvo engine and tranny. Bought it real cheap. Would NOT buy another one.
HARD to work on. STEEL water lines... talk about a pain...
You might as well hold your hand out the window, it would slow you down more than their "jake"
No power, and its rated 425. Horrible ride, but its a daycab, not one of those big over the road with the integrated sleepers... i hear those ride nice.
Uncomfortable cab. Uncomfortable seat.
Good visability. Relatively reliable. Short wheelbase, turns real tight.
You better have a volvo dealer close because some of the things you will need them to do.
If your going to only run it short trips and do all the work yourself and are in flat country and get it REALLY cheap then yeah go for it. Otherwise buy a Pete or Kenworth with a CAT or Cummins.
Just my opinion
