Had a F-16 tractor low cab direct after the truck expo in Amsterdam when the F-16 was introduced. 10 months later a Globetrotter F-16 3 axle truck 2 axle a-frame hanger 3 decks livestock. 3 times a week 2 drivers to Valencia from holland. 1 year later a new F-16 Same but with 4 deck hanger,same work. After 100k kilometer adjusted the pump,intercooler and turbo. was around 600 HP. Changed work,frigo. FH 16-520 XL-globetrotter 3 axle tractor. Holland,Italy,Spain,Greece and turkey. 4 years later New 520 same work. Now FH 16 700 and frigo. But the best was my second 470. A real animal on wheels and in that time NO speed limiter. Been blessed and spoiled with those Volvo,s
Nice Sound!! I had two FH16's, one with the SRO2400 gearbox. That was the best sound, totaly different from the other Volvo FH's..... The second one had a VT2514.. sounded similar to the FH12.
Like a Bristol 5 speed constant mesh gearbox on weed!!!!,sounds more gorgeous with serious mileage on the clock.The howl pulling away in first is to die for.
The Mark 1 FH16 is by far the best wagon Volvo made after the 'F' Series. Such an elegant motor,but a bit too plush for me,like getting in a Bentley with dirty boots. Have you video clips of a Mark 1 FH16 SR2400 box climbing a steep hill?, want to hear that gearbox SING!!!.
NICE SOUND ,what drug are you on!!!, not talking about, some city suits late model BMW M5 ,or a hairdressers souped up Mazda MX5. Combination of Volvo,s big snorting 16 litre lump,and SRO2400 constant mesh gearbox OH WOW!!!. Thought Mr Fuller,s RoadRanger was tuneful, but Volvo,s SRO2400 Box SIMPLY GORGEOUS!!!,could listen to that all day. love to see that big blue FH16 Mk-1 tackle a hill or two,just to hear the big beast work really hard.In UK Volvo do not list the SRO2400 box in Mark 1 FH16,s just The basic beefed up SR1400 Synchro Box. Alan Smith Waste Recycling run late model FH16,s with the awful I-shift gearbox on plant haulage coupled to quad axle Noteboom low loader trailers. To be honest Alan Smiths FH16,s sound like a little old ladies Nissan Micra economy car .

Very nice video! Thank you for sharing. F16/FH16 are fantastic trucks. And I love the sound of the TD162/D16.
Thanks! i´m glad you like it, and i agree, the sound is hard to beat =)
härligaste motorn någonsin
