Choose whatever you feel comfortable with, there's no point asking any of us because you're the one that's going to be driving. Personally I drive the FH16 because the layout is near perfection for me. Side mirrors, front mirror and how clear the dashboard is are the main selling points for me when it comes to a truck.

PS. You don't need a 750HP engine, 460 or at least 530HP and under is more than enough; 750 is overkill for the typical trailers you're pulling.

I fell in love with the engine sound of new Mercedes, so, that.

Highest quality is Scania no doubt.

I really don't think you can beat trying them for yourself in quick jobs to see which one you like. You might also want to take a look at the customization options for each truck. One of the things I like with the Mercedes is that in the vanilla game it can always have side skirts, and I like the way paint colour affects the rear fenders on the Scania. Ultimately, I drive the Volvo because I like the cab collar (not sure the name for it. The air deflectors to streamline with box trailers) and the interior layout.

I prefer the Scania Streamline and the Volvo FH CLASSIC. I hate the new Volvo FH. The Volvo makes a good noise and hauls well, but the Scania has a better interior than the Volvo. The Scania is a better drivers truck, while the Volvo Classic is a better hauler in my opinion. I drive one for a bit, usually 10K miles or whenever I get bored with it then switch to the other.

Scania

scania is a good reliable truck for long distance hauling and is very fuel efficient the engine will always give you max performance no matter what you are hauling :)

Volvo has a cheaper version, look pretty and its faster to upgrade to a decent engine (600kwh).

Scania takes AGES leveling your career till you can buy a decent engine, go for Volvo and upgrade the engine to 600 ASAP. Thank me later.

Depending on your driving style, they'll all do what you need them to do. Once the speed limiter is removed, I'm not the person to ask for that stuff.

Having driven all 3 for well over 10,000 km each as a test run, they are all great.

But in all fairness, I really don't like the instrument cluster on the Scania. While it does show the important useful things, it really lacks a lot of things that even Iveco offers, like an indicator to show that the retarder is still activated. So with that, I'd say the FH16 (Volvo) or the New Actros (Mercedes) then. Having spent too much time in flight sims as a teenager, I much prefer the fact that the Volvo sorta gives you most everything you need right away. The Mercedes isn't far behind and is also good in that aspect. Driving a 3 axle chassis, which means my fuel tank capacity takes a hit, I love that both the FH16 and Merc have long legs (specially the Merc), allowing it to go long distances before requiring refueling.

Regardless of which of the three you choose, you'll be happy with them for sure. They're solid pullers that handle nicely and don't need to stop every 800km.
