The RED button on the side of the seat is in fact the seat warmer. I have a 2020 VNL 860. Good Luck with the truck, I'm currently at 220k miles and she is a work horse. I love my 860.
I so badly want to get into long haul trucking but would only do it if I could work for a company that would provide a truck like that. Feel like that’s basically impossible though.
any problems with sensors and or emissions system so far?
OIC but its not required as your butt gets pretty warm sitting on the seat for 11 hours driving. LOL
I thought it was the ejection seat:))
я тебе не верю
We are ready for the Volvo semi rebuild to resume. Its been long enough.
That "project" was doomed from the very beginning. The only logical reason to buy it would've been if you had another one sitting with a blown engine, so you could've gotten it back on the road by swapping it with a low mileage motor at a good price.
i don’t think he has a new cab yet
@@nickstlouis847 I think He does
@@achon1771 frame was straight and everything was good mechanical after he finished the work now it just needs a cab and some cosmetic parts
@@andrewneil5902 do you have an idea how a frame is checked if it's within tolerances? What do you mean by cosmetic stuff? The cab has to be fully equipped for as far as I have seen.
I have driven a lot of trucks over my 54 years of driving truck. The day I first got to drive a Volvo I fell in love with it I did not want to drive any other truck they handel so nice you have a beautiful truck
finally a truck built for being away from home,
I’m not a truck driver but I like the look of the newer Volvos better than the older ones. Beautiful truck 🤩
It's quite funny to see how the new US Volvos are like a mix-match of new and old EU Volvos. Even more fun to see how much you guys over there actually like them
That red button on the seat is for the heated seats buddy!
And the controls you said were for the heater is actually the inverter...
I drive a Volvo in American Truck Simulator, I love how the sleeper looks. 😎✌🏾
The extra plastic housing on the mirrors is to stop the windshield washer fluid and rain on the windshield to go onto the mirrors when you use your wipers. The mirror does not get dirty, or blurry (with water) this way.
Rusty, get yourself a pool noodle, cut to length, put a slit in them and slip over the ladder bars for comfortably climbing onto top bunk.
Great idea, but I believe 1" black foam pipe tube insulation would probably fit better on the rungs.
I've only ever sat in a semi once (good Samaritan trucker took me to the next exit when I had a flat in winter...hell of a good guy there), so I could be wrong.
All in all, I am digging this rig, as far as comfort it looks good.
It's a pretty luxurious truck. Lots of storage, and comforts for you the driver.
I'm not a truck driver and I live in Europe so we don't have these big trucks but to me the Volvos in NA look really nice. Glad that you got this new truck
Your truck looks amazing. Seems like Volvo have thought of everything. I'd be very happy to live in that cab for a while. Thanks for the thorough review, really interesting to see inside in detail.
@TheRustyCracker ; You can manually unlock the king-pin, if its jammed, what you do, is first release it by the switch, that releases the air to the locking clamps; from there, you can do it manually.
Its done that way, for just in case it does get jammed, as they can some-times do so.
We have them in most of our trucks in the yard. (but for us, we have like an flip-switch that covers it, like launching a missile (but they cant be activated when moving, as a safety feature)
Great to find my New Video From TheRustyCracker like a breath of fresh air instead of many of the Crusty Channels. XL is the Cab type higher roof etc.
ECO Roll is the feature when you driving down the hill and release acceleration pedal, truck starting to roll in neutral gear. But you need to disengage cruise control and engine brake first.
The volvo is simply beauty and the beast
Only one thing to say ... It's a Volvo! (Driving the XC90 in private, best car ever)
The VISTA mechanic
I've thought about getting an XC90.
Globetrotter XL is Volvo's top package.
Shes a beauty. I drive a Globetrotter here in UK and a Volvo car so Im Volvo MAD lol..
How much does this rig cost? Of all the comments I have seen only one state "quarter of a million."
RUSTY:
Rusty: I love the VOLVO
I like everything that is placed inside the cabin as well as what is additionally in the SLEEPER. It helps you as a truck driver
I'm one of those guys who is rather "old school" and prefer the CLASSIC XL.
Love your videos - it gives good information and also pros and cons of what you drive as well as for the new guys who want to become truck drivers.
Do not stop making videos - it's really something to watch
If i were a truck driver, i'd definitly buy this beauty.
I like the truck is very nice on the inside very nice on the outside and I think you did a very good job describing it burrow
Great looking truck … awesome features.. especially the ladder for the bunk .. I think it works great.. I’m glad I have one as well!!!😎😎
This truck looks a lot better and features then the Western Star
I don't like Volvo but I am old fashioned. Looks like it drives like a sports car, and very comfortable
Volvo the best truck in Europe really like your USA version
I think your company set you up for success man, good job!
I'll be getting this one.
22 or 2023 by the time I'm ready.
I'm gonna be living in my newly bought Globetrotter for at least 5 years until they make a better one.
I have nothing or anyone holding me down.
If you have the same ladder with thin steps and you plan to leave it out pool noodles cut to slide over it give great padding for bare feet
Globetrotter is the high of the cabin , xl is the highest and just globetrotter is a lower cabin. A have a Volvo FH Globetrotter. I think it is a 10-20 centimeter difference
I saw one of these in PURPLE and I don't want anything else now!
Brilliant bit of kit for the highway
Volvo backup in Europe is first class
🇬🇧👍
Nice rig, looks comfortable and can be made easily livable for OTR life...
I drove volvo 5 yrs in canada…. Its the best in the bad weather.
Rain Sensor: It detects rainfall hitting the windshield. It then starts the wipers without you doing anything. :) My Town car has them.
Whatever happened to the wrecked Volvo you were rebuildind?...did you ever find a cab for it?
I love the Volvo, especially with the setup with teh table! Very nice!!! Congrats man.
I want a volve they are nice
I think she is the most beautifull truck you've driven to this time!! I personally like her way more than the western star and the cascadia!! Now i certainly can't wait to see your own volvo rebuilt!!!
As a Norwegian truck-driver, i kinda feel sorry for you guys. Yeah, the upside is you have a bigger space in the back, with larger fridge and all that, but i don't envy you for the driving experience. Guess the product meets the market requirements, Volvo here provides a different product.
Rusty
Good morning
Great truck , congratulations
Have a nice day
Regards
18 April 2021
Enjoy Rusty.
It’s looks amazing and I’m not a truck driver beautiful truck
Beautiful Truck I love the blue lines big hug Rusty from COSTA RICA 🇨🇷 DEUCES!
No one can do it Better than Rusty❤️.
Great video as always
the house plugs are controlled by the inverter that is below the control panel in the sleeper. Push and hold the green button and it turns on. It's not a heater lol
Volvo trucks are really nice design, next to international LT625 or Kenworth T680 I think Volvo takes the crown, Cascadia 2018 design, those are nice as well, but if we talk about how much technology you get in a tractor I believe Volvo has the upper hand right now. Note: I have not seen a Tesla Semi yet, but I hope their technology is good as Volvo. My only complaint with this Volvo design are the hood latches and for old school drivers the steering wheel seems a bit pack with buttons. (Convenience is nice but not to overwhelm the driver)
Euro Line is a Luxury companny
Rusty when are you going road trip again I miss watching your road trip video thanks and be safe.
My right ear enjoyed this video.
*MAN RUSTY I HAVEN'T SEEN YOU IN A WHILE WOW WHAT A NICE TRUCK*
(I wasn't being sarcastic)
I think Volvo stay the best truck for the road
The volvo have worst off road truck and weakest truck with automatic transmission in 2021 But European volvo street trucks are good in comfort, but the interior is uncomfortable compared to Mercedes and Scania as well. What is more wrong with Volvo Trucks especially the newer model from 2013 until today? There are a lot of problems and terrible fuel and adblue consumption. Also (need a better seat) this is my opinion
If you look on your fith wheel just in front of the handle pull on the plate itself there is a lug that sticks out over the leaver arm with a hole above and one beneath in Europe this is where the safety dog clip goes in when it's in you can not menuly. Pull the handle to unlock the fith wheel lock I myself to stop people pulling my pin at night or when I leave my truck at a truck stop I use a padlock instead of the dog clip just clip the dog clip onto the padlock shackle
It's interesting that there is so big difference of the interior on the dashboard on an American and an European Volvo. You have a newer Volvo than me but I have so much better frontinterior on my European Volvo. It's more electric gadgets on my and the sun viser is an electric curtain that goes up and down, same on the sides but no electric, love those. Wonder when you Americans will get the electronic handbrake that we have
The electric handbrake is super crappy.
Man i Wish i could drive one,,, Wish i can work there... A Dream Come True...
Really beautiful truck !!! Get those wheels polished ..lol 😅...stay safe and keep on truckin Rusty !!!
I drove a FM 9 concrete truck , nice ! This is something else ! Love it 🙃
One of my friends just bought one last week... Now he has his own truck...
Wow, I definitely need. Thank you for the review
Nice video Rusty! I run this truck in ATS and absolutely love it!
The Volvo the beast watching- South Africa
The base version companies such as Old Dominion use are literally perfect for European roads/haulage!
For the rain sensor, leave your windshield wipers on the intermittent settings, the more frequent the intermittent, the more sensitive the sensor. For Volvos, it will wipe once to let you know it’s active.
Your truck looks so cool in the cinematic view 🌄 😍😍wow
That's a one heck of a beauty! I feel like taking a ride in it!
Just watched your video..I hope you figured out that the red switch is for heating your seat. You have to be sitting in it for it to function
I have no idea why I was paying attention like I'm getting a test later, but It was a good video. I watched the whole thing. LOl
I have a 2015 780 and love it- this is a great unit, but would be interesting to see how the new electric Volvo trucks will come into play (if it does spark it will put a lot of people out of work).
Great video! Would be nice to see a comparison to a European spec Volvo. Or why not a Renault or Mercedes. Just as a fun idea.
the remote kingpin unlock wont engage unless the park brake is pulled so you dont have to worry about someone *deleting" you😆
17:29 ooooooohhh oldschool volvo doorhandle :=D
I didn’t know that the Volvo was so comfortable.👍🏾
Amazing! Over here in the UK our trucks are cargo carriers with a piece of Lego attached at the front where the driver sits 😂
Looks pretty awesome to me.
Rusty the guy actually walked up to the truck & we said hi & all that lol it was pretty cool
Oh yeah!! Rusty just shined up his studio apartment on wheels lol
Love your truck love my truck in ATS
My honest opinion? Ok first of cheers to solo life, and second im absolutely in love with this truck, and last but definitely not least the more of these videos i watch the more i want to be a trucker
XL means Extra Large. Here in Europe the Globetrotter XL is the biggest cab in Globetrotter models.
TBH= I REALLY LIKE THIS TRUCK
I really love the volvo truck.
Semi-truck with automatic transmission. Probably like driving a really big car.
I drive a 17 730. Very similar sleeper. When the owner picked up the truck it had a basic sleeper mattress. After 1 night on the cushions I put that mattress on top of them and have slept great since. I can't really utilize the table without difficulty but I haven't missed it either. Also if you put an inverter in put on the 2000/3000 cables even if it is a 1500 watt inverter. My positive cable got hot with the smaller cabless on 4 minute Microwave times. Plus the 1500 cables are a foot shorter.
⁰
@@ericleek4143 update upgrading to a 2000 watt, even with bigger cables, a 3 minute microwave time overheats it.
12:55 A mirror for women is my favorite feature.
Love volvo Vnl's love the table set up. Enjoy rusty
Volvo trucks in Australia are only available as cab over without bonnet
Yeah Man you got that fact, they should launch the VN Range or VNL in Australia 🇦🇺. For the past years or earlier they had N/NL and NH-Series which was Bonneted.
Volvo trucks are always good to drive !
Volvo is the best!!
Video 1 of asking where the 2019 Volvo rebuild is at and when will it come back
He gave up on it more than likely
Wow man great volvo is best.👍
AWESOME truck!!! AWESOME video!!!
In Europe the globetrotter XL has a higher roof than the standard globetrotter then there's an XXL which has a higher and longer cab
But these are what you call cab-overs in America.
Volvo is the best
I want more trucking OTR video please i love them
greetings from Indonesia
🇺🇸 Keep America Great Again 🇺🇸
....You're an awesome patriot!....
Best truck I have seen.
We have all been Bruce wilsoned when it comes to the volvo vnl rebuild
Why in the US they only have Volvo engine options up to 560HP and in EU there are 750HP options?
cuz volvos are shitty trucks. In the us anyways. Cant beat a long nose pete/kenworth. Reguardless it comes with a weak d13 and not the d15. Nicer interior at the cost of a weaker engine.
Nice truck would totally get a truck like this
