In sweden it's very common with lift hook trucks as they can be used to do everything.
my truck is a 565hp ISX cummins, all of our rigs are between 475 and 600

yep, all our trucks are 13 or 18 speeds, cant do sh*t with a 10

those N14's were one of the best engines ever made, they'll easily go over a million miles without being opened up and they have good power and get good mileage
