Asross72 Posted September 23, 2015 Report Share Posted September 23, 2015 Time to introduce our truck. We got it a few months ago, but have only had time for a few necessary items, jacalopee and Hayes brake controller. Picked it up in Ontario and drove it back to Alberta. Drives like a dream. 2007 Volvo 880 2014 Palomino Sabre 36qbok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmzero Posted September 24, 2015 Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 Well now you hurt my feelings It really is a cool truck and Color though I must say. Heck, I put it in front of mine, too.

Jack Mayer Posted September 24, 2015 Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 Yeah, it is a pretty cool truck. So there are two now on the forum and there will be one at the Rally (Ed's, driven by Gregg). I offered to buy Ed's form him and trade for mine. But (wisely) he declined. But I'll keep trying...

Asross72 Posted September 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2015 Thank you everyone. Looking forward to doing some longer trips with it. Congrats! How 'bout a few details. Wheelbase, RE ratio, engine, trans? Wheelbase is 244" I believe. RE ratio, 3.55, D16 500hp. Fuller 13 speed. I have test driven the Ishift and love it, but I also love driving a manual. So, when this truck popped up, for a price I was willing to pay, I couldn't resist. Looking forward to tinkering on it. 2007 Volvo 880 2014 Palomino Sabre 36qbok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
