Is there a reason why Euro Trucks and US Trucks look so different?

Lets see

Gross Domestic Product, from CIA world factbook:
EU 15,900,000 million USD
USA 14,620,000 million USD

Use of natural gas from CIA world factbook:
EU 497,300,000,000 (m³)
USA 652,900,000,000 (m³)


m³ of gas burned in a year to create million dollars of GDP
EU 31,277 m³
USA 44,658 m³

US needs to get better here for sure, but I gotta think the size and transportation has something to do with the burning of oil especially.

EU=1.7 million sq/mi
US=3.8 million sq/mi

yall are pussies. this is the truck i drive

my wheels are as tall as your trucks are long.

Ive been into the mining also, but nowdays i work for one of the biggest medical companys in the world instead.

Ive worked with Detroit diesel, and they were like going back 20 years in time in technology. I think Cummins are better in this regard.

if you ask me, i think the germans have the best engineers in the world.

lol, this thread is just hilarious. seriously though, to get back to the trucks, the euro ones look MUCH cleaner, and hi-tech. although the american ones look downright more badass

Yay ......does that mean you won't be visiting the football thread again?

On topic the film "Duel" just wouldn't have been the same with a euro truck.
Probably the most important point made in this thread, so far.

This.

Very few decent American DJs in the genres I like. Kaskade and technically Keoki, who was raised in America but born elsewhere. Holland is ridiculously stacked in this area by contrast.

You do know where House and Techno came from, right?

There are quite a number of excellent American DJs.

In America, we also know the definition of the word fake. That is not a poster, nor is it fake. It simply comes from a different source (ARWU) than the one you used.


Let me get this straight. You brought up language. Okay then.

Trucks, trucks and more trucks. < I suppose you think we're talking in American? or wait-

:p

More importantly than 18 wheelers is that EU doesn't have this:
