For some reason, this truck reminds me of a DAF truck... Don't you think so too? Just compare the lights and the grill with this with, say, a DAF XF, CF or LF.

Tried this truck on various maps, did not enjoy it. (Running standard Spintires, not Plus). Compared to other 8x8 trucks I have played:
* Off road capability poor on all tyres. Got stuck where other trucks would drive right through, or could not get as far as other trucks. Did not handle mud or rocks well.
* Park brake will not hold truck on hills.
* Poor steering - worse with diff locks on. Sometimes wouldn't even turn in the direction I had the front wheels pointing. Would just plough forwards, or slide down the hill (if on a side slope).
* Gets hung up too easily on rocks and fallen trees.
* Damages easily.

Other issues:
* Engine noise - inconsistent. Jumps between sounds at different rev ranges. Goes back to idle when front wheels turned.

I don't know if I missed something, or if the Spintires Plus mod is needed to make the truck driveable, but I wasn't impressed with it. It is a good looking truck, with plenty of power, but the points listed above turned me off it. Sorry.
