New Truck time

[Tiny Panda]

So i recently came back from 3 weeks in California to be presented with a shiny new P100, after 13 years with the company is was about time, my old hack was 18 years old. It seems some thought has gone into the new vehicles with a few things added that must have come from driver suggestions.

Anyway, thought you guys would like some pics of a European P100

With a soon to be colleague

The hot seat

Long way to the front

Secure area for rolls of fabric etc

Sack truck store

Autolock on rear door, same on front and bulk head doors

Push button start, descreet it aint!

Colour back up camera

With distance markers when in reverse

Digital Tachograph to keep me legal

LED lights throughout, this is well after dark

Anyways, hope you enjoy.

Its lovely to drive even if its limited to 56mph although the old P80 was easier to work from

You better write that truck up immediately. They put your drivers seat on the wrong side!

 

[Johney]

Sweet! I want one except steering on the other side. Oh and automatic.

 

[Tiny Panda]

Could have had the wheel on the other side but i'd just fall out the door

And that many packages!!

I can't believe it's not an automatic, but it would do !

I'm surprised it still has the Mercedes emblem on it. Here stateside they usually remove any manufacturer emblems that the public may see.

When pulling away from curb, right turn signal, right mirror, right shoulder

 

[Notretiredyet]

Now that's a package car, I could run scratch in one of those. Maybe.. Like the mirror placement, much better that they are on the new trucks here, lot more visibility out front too. Manual trans works for me, I prefer them actually.

The area for longs is really cool, as is the passenger side mirror allowing you to see right next to the truck.

Aaaah man, I wish our trucks had that cubby hole for the long irregs/hand truck. That is SWEEEET!!

 

[TheKid]

That is one sweet ride

 

[OptimusPrime]

UPS. Made in America. But our European brothers get the sweet whips.

 

[Harry Manback]

So uh...what do spend your time doing between lunch and pickups?

 

[Richard Harrow]

I wouldn't last a day. I could never shift a vehicle with my left hand.

Surprised its not an automatic, and the step into the cab kinda sucks, and looks like a far reach to the diad, other than that looks pretty nice. We have a few with those monitors and they are really bright at night. Look at the far left it looks like it has a camera lens in it!

 

[Cementups]

..... looks like a far reach to the diad, other than that looks pretty nice.....

Of course you're not supposed to be using your DIAD while you're driving anyway

Very nice but where are the 500 Amazon and Zappo's packages
