Nah, I been a dreamer for too many years..LOL.. that's why people told my wife not to marry me.. but that's another story..LOL.. seriously, I read some conjecture that this is Volvo's attempt to get the conventional long nosed truck buyer to buy Volvo. I know a lot of long haul drivers look...

Found a couple pics posted online of the new VT Volvo 880. The truck has Volvo’s new D16 engine, rated up to 635 hp with 2,250 lbs.-ft. of torque. This is apparently Volvo's attempt to make a long nose truck, but to me, it looks more like a Freightliner FLD120 or Coronado reworked. Kinda...

Thanks guys! I'll pass it on, or he'll probably read it on here. Dreamer

Had someone ask me a question privately that I don't know the answer to, so I'll ask on here for those more familiar with OOIDA. Can Van drivers join OOIDA, or is it just for Truck Drivers? The reason this gentleman was asking, is he's hoping to take advantage of their medical insurance, etc...
