Sooooo.......................things were bought  Looks like it needs some TLC, but those 4X50s were good machines. Just needs paint, only has a little over 3100 hours, everything's original other then the cab kit that was just put in it. Only issue we have with it now is the AC leaking, but thats a quick fix |

Those things are pretty heavy, usually see them on tri axle or better trailers with a 4 axle truck.

So, other then wondering why my Samsung Potato-4 wont take pics worth a fuck today, I screwed with this hunk of crap. Why? Well it wouldn't start, that is until i had the bright idea of knocking the injector pump with a hammer for 5 minutes did it start. So next course of action, if it does it again, tear down the pump and see wtf is wrong with it.  |

One lunch break at work was reading a magazine and it had an article about this. I think we here in Scandinavia do things "a bit" bigger than the rest of Europe. Especially with our legal 76 ton trucks + 100ton+ trucks that run special permits.

More from Finland. A High Capacity Transport (HCT) demonstration. 76 tons stopping from 80km/h, 50mph on dry asphalt. The braking distance was 49m (160ft) and deceleration 5 m/s.

Who said trucks don't brake as efficiently as cars ?
Considering their respective weights they do much better...

I agree! I have the impression that their warning systems are much better as well
