You get what you pay for... quality is expensive.
- Which in my opinion is also one of the reasons why Plastico (Iveco) is cheap.

I will die on this hill. The Renault T is the best looking truck. My Renault T, Renee does the job just fine.

Maybe because the majority of ets2 users have never set foot in a truck IRL...

I've pretty much spent my whole ETS2 career driving Renault trucks. Cheaper than the Scania's and can do everything the Scania can, and they have the best ergonomics of any of the trucks. Iveco and Daf are by far the worst from all aspects.

I really liked the Magnum simply for it's visibility, that massive windshield offers a great view of the road ahead. And Ivecos are really nice handling.

The thing that puts me off both those brands at the end of the day, though, is power. Or rather, a lack of such. Back in the day when we had the old SCS quarries with the really steep roads out of them, Renault and Iveco couldn't pull loads up out of those areas - they just didn't have the grunt to get up the hill. And even outside of the quarries when the roads were more flat, they still felt like they were labouring to drag heavy loads, taking a long time to get going at traffic lights, or getting up to speed on a motorway.

I don't have anything against the brands as a whole, I'm sure they have their uses for smaller, lighter loads, and can do their job well enough. But when buying my own truck, I wanted something versatile, which could do pretty much any job without too much stress, so I wouldn't have to carefully pour over the job market to see which loads I could do more easily, or which might cause me issues when driving. And for me, that versatility meant power...more powerful engines that could just work smoothly regardless of weight, location, or whatever else.

Then you probably haven't tried this special transport from Stavanger to Oslo with a Renault or an Iveco.

I have tested that job with the strongest possible truck from both Renault and Iveco.
The Renault was so slow that when I handed over the trailer I didn't have enough driving rest time left to reach the nearest rest stop... and the Iveco ran out of fuel before I reached the finish line.
All other industry strongest trucks completed the trip including enough time to reach a rest area afterwards.

Magnum is one of my favorites for being the boxiest "form over function" truck with high windows (for some reason I love high mounted window extensions over the side windows), centrallly mounted high-visibility wide front mirror (why isn't that more common? I wanna put that on all my trucks), and a unique office sleeper (why don't more trucks have the sidefacing chair and table under the bunk back there?), but I never could get attached to the dash, that felt like it was made for another truck, which it might have since its shared with the Premium. I don't drive it much due to lack of customization in-game but it still broke my heart when the production ended.

In the wake of the 2020's industrial revolution trying to shove TV screens with confusing sci-fi instrument layouts for dashboards, and camera mirrors that do the same thing as a piece of inert glass but cost more, the Renault T is a breath of fresh air as a modern production truck.

Now in all that context, its always general goods loads I longhaul. I probably wouldn't pick a Renault for heavy lifting or flatbedding, anymoreso than a standard tanker trailer.

Most of my ETS2 driving was done with Iveco Hi-Way. Longst round trip (total 9000 km on the meanwhile discontinued TSM mod map from Germany via Austria, Italy, Greece, Egypt, Libiya, Tunisisa, Algeria, Morocco, Spain, France and Belgium back into Germany was 9000 km and done in a Renault Premium.
To say it plain, I passionately hate the older Scanias and Volvos. Even the newer models I will usually not use if I can have an Iveco Hi-Way, Renault T or MAN TGX instead.

To me it seems Renault cars and trucks had a common operating strategy. The Premium and Magnum were developed and still facelifted independently from Volvo although the last rework was during the time of the merger. The same is valid for Mercedes by the way, a bus or truck has more switches and dials than a car, but the ones they have are all at the same place from the smallest to the largest model. Drove a 2000s Renault car some years back and Premium / Magnum always felt a little like home with these dashboards due to very similar looks to my car.
