All of the Fuso's, NPR's, and FRR's I've ever worked on were friggin behemoths. They were awkward to say the least, ergonomically speaking. But they were a hoot to drive. About as much power as a freight train, but they stop WAY quicker. My curiosity with your curiosity of these things is the enormousness (is that a word??) of the diffs in these big boys. I seem to remember them having BUDD wheels on the rears and, what would appear to be, at least a 1 ton axle. The lug nuts required a well-lubed 3/4 air impact to remove. And occasionally, that wasn't enough <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" /> Seems like a touch of overkill, but, eh, if ya got the moolah, whatever blows your skirt up, right? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

BTW, never seen one in person with 4wd, but I do see them listed as having been sold in the states. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> Rawk On!!
