Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

Engines: 12.9-litre60,410hp,063111m Transmissions: ZF 16spd manual Chassis: 6x4, 8x4 GWIts: 26.0t 32.0! Wheelbases: 4,800-6,660mm

MODEL TESTED/PUBLISHED: 700 11May 2006

Hino replaced Foden when Paccar pulled the plug by taking over many of its dealers, customers and rnarketshare.

The 700 Series is a serious nuts and bolts truck, which operators seem to prefer over the new-look new-technology trucks built by the western Europeans. It prefers power to torque, and the cat is a orefits-all option as are the engine, transmission, and to a lesser extent the body, which is added at the construction stage.

Despite the cab's height, space for the driver still hasn't been addressed, and you need to fully depress the clutch for clear gear changes.

There are muckaway and aggregate options so you can tailor it for your chosen profession. In time Nino mIgnt have to join the electronicdrivel ine revolution to keep pace with tough European safety legislation.

LIKES AND DISLIKES.

✓ Lack of electronics ✓ Eco power button ✓ Weight x Short on torque

x Cramped driving conditions over long distances
