Sure. I am a real life trucker here in Norway. Have been driving for 4 years, local, district and long haul. Currently I am driving distric, home every day, but I drive fairly long distances and few deliveries. And we have really interesting roads here :D.

What kind of truck you drive?

You will find that many of us here either are, or were truckers, including myself. I had a 1985 Kenworth T600 Sleeper.

Except for motorcycles, I only bought American trucks. I think they have more flare, style, and design that depicts your personality. To me, all foreign trucks seem to look the same. If you’ve seen one, you’ve seen them all. Nice thread. I decided to make it a ‘Sticky’ so everyone can view, and comment on it

Right now I drive a Volvo FM 300. I have driven a variety of trucks, including Volvo FL, FM, FH12 and FH16, Scania P and R (including R580), Mercedes and my definite favourite, a DAF XF105 520.

I could post screenshots, I don't know if this would be an appropriate place to do that?

You could, but how true would it be? I’m merely saying that American trucks are built with many designs, shapes, and sizes. 90% of what I‘ve seen with European trucks are cab-overs, and look pretty much the same. It wasn’t intended to insult anyone. It was just an observation.;)
