2017 Volvo FH 540 Truck - Full Tour & Test Drive - Stavros969

[@seyedalirezashadpay12]

I was driving for 4 years by one of this truck, some years ago, before Covid. I had an I-Shift FH 460. I really enjoyed.

[@niceguy235uk1]

God knows how i ended up here. I don't even have any interest in trucks in any shape or form, but enjoyed the videos anyway! Good work!

[@krojzzz228]

I saw a guy on tiktok and hes a trucker he has an american truck and i wanted to know wich is better

[@user-lk8im2gb2e]

Way more comfortable than my house.

[@Kieran-wi9xm]

Michael Tjoeng it’s not really we have had it for a few weeks

[@angrysocialjusticewarrior]

@@Kieran-wi9xm Your comment is not clear. Are you saying the Volvo truck is not comfortable? Are you sure the one you have even has air ride?

[@Kieran-wi9xm]

Social Justice Warrior no like we had that exact lorry for a few weeks while our own was in for work

[@cristiangutierrez9608]

lmao

[@GumpPower]

i have driven an FH500 I-Save from late 2019 with about 23 tons loaded. i was very impressed by the engine, gearbox and overall driving that the volvo presented to me! easily the best truck i''ve ever driven just talking from the driving site of things. can't comment on space offering

[@skyborg2010]

This is the best truck tutorial video I have seen.

[@bartman8653]

WELL DONE MATE !!! PERFECT JOB !!!! I've watched many videos but your one IS THE BEST !!!! CARRY ON and never stop ! the world need more people like you!!!! BLESS MAN ! PEACE !

[@Ubeer85]

Very good review. The light payload doesnt do this engine justice. A 420hp engine would had been a good option for this combination. I drove a timbertruck here in sweden 60ton grossweight with a 540 and that load suits it realy well. The 16.1L 550hp is the more affordable big volvo engine but it has 2900nm of torque instead of the 2600nm of the 540. The most common in the timberhauling is 540 and 750hp from my experience. I hope you get to try the 750hp truck someday.

[@JohnDoe-ky9yn]

Thanks for the review. I just got employed on the FH500, so I won't be a total noob when I arrive on the first day on the job.

[@noorali6859]

[@Palestina.non.grata86]

I've just become a HGV driver and I like to watch these to have an idea of which trucks I may end up driving. Driven around 8 or 9 Mercedes Actros and a DAF XF so far. Looking forward to driving a Scania or a Volvo FH next!

[@AmramAbba]

[@austinturner5818]

Is there a manual option

[@ΑναστασίαΓιαννάκη-γ7ξ]

If you can make a video with Volvo fh 16 750 2021

[@minidriversouthsweden5137]

I know it’s the washer fluid there in the blue tank but I refer it as blinker fluid tank. Not everyone has it topped up and the indicators won’t work.

[@quangtruong1546]

Is it disk break or drum break?

[@nelsondaporsche7820]

Please keep doing trucking videos, Thanks.......

[@smalltechmedia3801]

from.where you recomend to buy used scania trucks (Right hand)? i mean which one is your recomended dealer to buy 1

[@patrickpirelli7897]

What do you prefer Volvo os Scania, or is there an even better truck???

[@mikestewart7322]

Always enjoy your truck vids Stavros, great stuff, more if you can please.👍🏻🚚

[@stavros969]

Thanks Mike Stewart i'll do what i can to video more trucks, it's not always easy to get them though.

[@esef90]

Sorry to bother you but a quick correct for those that got confused. The design was made in 2012 not 2013. Thanks for the vid stavros, id like to see more volvo videos if you get a chance👍

[@NickF14]

I remember talking to you in London by the Bugatti with a few of my friends - remember your enthusiasm. Awesome video :)

[@stavros969]

Thank you MegaNickT i'll be back again in a few weeks, nice chatting with you.

[@seorangayah5242]

Where is it?why these steering at the right?

[@jeetbajwa12]

Which trucks you would say most economical on fuel in this 450-550 BHP ??

[@nikharisniksuzaimi7945]

is this truck equipped with the dual clutch 12 speed?

[@captainredneck0683]

Wish they offered that truck here! What is a tachograph? I heard you mention it a couple of times.

[@ajmedia1274]

Excellent real world truck reviews. Please test an FH750 !

[@vgbeastbomb8327]

Can you test a Volvo fh16 any time as well

[@kevinrdee9273]

Great stuff starvos.. upload more when you can😉 thanks

[@hunzolee]

Ok! You are testing all the newer trucks , witch one is better Volvo or Scania ?

[@bhaskarajagadhita133]

This is Amazing! Love the detail

[@andyfalconer18]

this may sound a stupid question but what is adblue

[@juanzingarello4005]

The US doesn't get these Volvo FH trucks. What we do get is the V-Series with a large snout. Also a nice truck.

[@Horizon301.]

All American Trucks look ugly thanks to that ‘snout’. Their cabs are half the size of the trailers we have here. Simple a waste of space

[@juanzingarello4005]

Chatta290 funny. I was going to say the same about how ugly these flat-nosed Euro trucks are. We had a flat-nosed eurostyle Freightliner for a few years but the ultimately preferred type of truck is the one with the snout. In the US, these are preferred because they are much easier to maintain and gain access to engine components. But I do think these flat-nosed designs are more appropriate for tight European roads. A large Freightliner, International, Volvo VNL, or Peterbilts could never make tight turns.

[@Horizon301.]

Juan Zingarello If you compare them they are worlds apart, American trucks are like euro trucks dating back many, many years with the nasty wood trims and the dials, sorry but I just think they should move with the times. But yes having a truck half the size of the trailers they tow would make the truck unsellable in the UK, trucks have a hard time already navigating around the country when off the motorway so any extra length would only be a major issue. It’s not just these trucks though, in the US everything is huge, buses, ambulances, fire engines etc.

[@anthonywalker7240]

Hi, I really enjoyed your videos. Those new trucks are really smart.

[@janinordman2755]

Do you know what is that button at top right corner on ambient control panel? I tried that on my truck but it didnt do anything? 😂

[@yalnzoyuncu383]

what is their fuel comsuption ?

[@AgyGuntoro]

What is the difference adblue and diesel?

[@Ravn0110]

Adblue or Diesel Exhaust Fluid, is made from Ammonia to a product called Urea, and it is mixed with distilled water, and used to clean the exhaust gases made from burning diesel. That's the fast and easy explanation.

[@vgbeastbomb8327]

Adblue cleans your emissions and diesel is the fuel for the truck

[@r22cereecy36]

Ad blue stops fumes from the engine and smoke

[@78625amginE]

No engine brake?

[@Ridg.e]

How tall is this truck?

[@pedrol6548]

Great, Interesting & Informative Truck Videos, Keep them Coming Stavros.

[@stavros969]

Thank you *Pedro*

[@hamishc2445]

Please keep doing trucking videos

[@ckuijl31]

Christ, I can nearly store more in the truck than in my home😂

[@tamizharasan1857]

I liked ur VSA explained at last movement,I think this is better than explain in 1st.

[@flk9623]

How much cost of it?

[@michaelmiller7928]

You don't want air suspension. When it pops it will lean until you get it repaired and it is not cheap.

[@AirsoftV3]

Great Vid Stav! Lovely Truck

[@stavros969]

Thanks AirsoftV3

[@hisv4578]

Yet another great truck review, I really like these ones. Keep up the good work Stravros!

[@david.k1528]

Had a v8 600 actros before it was traded for one of these fh 540’s and have to say pulling power sucks compare to the v8 but the comfort is unreal 👍🏻 all round good truck. Well done Volvo 😁

[@No-Name360]

You had a actros Now fh 540 Which had better pulling power ?? And which truck pulls heavy weight without struggle??

[@ryefitzy7428]

Got a new Volvo fe yesterday but having problem finding the dipstick to check oil and nothing seems to be coming up on the dash any ideas it’s a 63plate model very basic

[@bamiee1337]

You only can check de oil level when the engine is not running it would show up in the menu.

I'll do my best savvas_mp thanks

[@UnknownProdrive]

Was I seeing things Stavros or did the mat on the dash have bird foot prints on it? The I shift has always been the market leader in auto boxes. But a faster DCT option sounds great. I'd like to try it.

[@stavros969]

Wouldn't mind trying the one with the faster gear box myself Sleepingdragon 1

[@drizz786]

Aux brake the same as engine brake? Just trying to get a base line . Nice work lad keep them coming

[@CononBarrett]

Nice video, can you get your hands on a 750 - V8

[@komsomolac]

I just discovered your channel, and I really like the way you do these reviews. I enjoy every minute of it. Did you ever get to test the 750hp version?

[@rustamtrucking]

Nice to see one more truck review from you . How do you compare this Volvo and Scania S500 that tested before ? What's your opinion?

[@carterfarms301]

Rustam Mamadzhaev s500 from a farmers pov I'm hoping to get the s730 to replace our r730

[@Aron-ow7zx]

Volvo are better I have drove both trucks

[@fajarnugroho7701]

From Stavros review on both trucks the Scania S beats volvo in every aspect

[@mohdaidiazhar3276]

[@noobbassist1352]
