What the fuel gap costs
Against the most efficient tractor in this reference, over 120,000 miles at this week’s diesel price.
$4,974 a year
Known issues
The same Volvo parts and diagnostic considerations as the VNL.
Verdict
A good regional tractor, and a light one, which is payload. Wrong for long haul where the VNL's sleeper and aerodynamics earn their weight back.
