Operators can go to town on spec with an array of engines including an EGR 12-litre with two horsepower ratings. The transmissions are standard but there is an I-Shift option for 44f applications.
FM here comes with day, sleeper and Globetrotter cabs and the latter should whet the appetite for any asphalt/ aggregate owner-driver with cash burning a hole in their pockets.
CMtesting found the heavier engines performed better than the 9.0-litre, but its there if you're looking to reduce weight.
