Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

Oaf's modular 'pick'n'mix' range moves into the middleweight sector with the LF55, which covers the weight range from 12 to 21 tonnes and is available in 4x2 and 6x2 configurations, as well II as an urban artic for operations up to 28 tonne GCW. Like the LF45, power comes from the Cummins ISBe unit—though Daf insists on calling ha Paccar engine. In the LF55 there's just one rating of the little 3.9-litre four-cylinder available. 170hp and three versions-180, 220 and 2501 p —of the larger 5.9-litre, six-cylinder motor.

LF55 is aimed at the payload-conscious sector of the distribution market, with a 13-tonne bodyplus-payload for the 6x2 21-tonne rigid claimed by Oaf. The stylish cab. shared with the LF45 and beneath the skin, with the Renault Midlum, lacks some of the creature comforts offered by othei distribution trucks on the market, not least by Oaf itself (see CF65/75), and the LF seems best suited to local operations.
