The rear air bags are rated for 19,000 pounds as is the rear axle. The air bags automatically adjust to the amount of weight sitting on the hitch. The chrome quarter fenders and the aluminum wheels showing on the rear axle are new.

No CDL is required to drive it. I drive it as my car and it is the perfect fifth wheel travel trailer hauler, or race car transporter. The Holland hitch mates perfectly with your travel trailer kingpin. I have towed my Alfa Gold more than 35,000 problem free miles using a factory Holland hitch. There is no better hitch made. Some folks choose to install an air ride hitch, but this is unnecessary.

Among them, It has the power to climb any grade in the US while towing your travel trailer without downshifting ( unless you come up behind slower traffic.) 400 HP and 1450 lbs of torque. This unit has a two speed Jake brake. Going down a mountain grade towing a travel trailer using the Jake, you never have to touch your tractor brakes or trailer brakes. Never again will you fear mountainious driving as so many do when towing with an underpowered medium truck . No more crawling up a grade or smoking your brakes going down. You will actually relish mountain grades in this truck.

You can easily go up any mountain in 10th gear and not lose a single mile per hour. You can accellerate up the mountain if you want to.

Transmission and rear axle warranties are five years or 750, 000 miles which ever comes first. When traveling, we normally remain hitched to the trailer, and don't bother with putting the trailer jacks down. The average time to in frame overhaul on the M 11 engine is 800,000 miles, and thats towing a gross weight of 80,000 pounds. Some M 11s go to the million mile mark before requiring an inframe overhaul. This engine has only 493,000 miles on it. It is tight and does not burn oil. This engine should easily go 300,000 more miles before requiring an inframe overhaul. I change the oil and filters every 6 to 8,000 miles. I lube the truck every 3 to 4000 miles.

I had an axle removed and shortened the back of the frame to create a 186 inch wheelbase truck. The truck has a stand up 60 inch sleeper. The cab and sleeper are fully carpeted with lots of overhead storage space, and two wardrobes. The Engine is an Electronic M 11 + Cummins, 400 HP with 1450 foot pounds of torque. The Transmission is a 10 speed with .73 overdrive. The rear axle ratio is 3:90. The truck is registered as a motorhome. No CDL is required to drive it. Stopping at weigh stations is not required. The title to the vehicle states that it is a motorhome. Motorhomes are exempt from DOT regulations. The Volvo has triple air ride. The chassis, cab/sleeper, and seats are air ride. The truck is completely equipped. Options include a two speed Jake brake, tilt, tel, cruise, power steering &amp; brakes, Air, Suspension dump switch, dual aluminum 100 gallon fuel tanks, all aluminum wheels, engine block heater and fuel water separator. The steer tires are new, and rear tires have 80% rubber remaining. There is a large custom built storage box bolted to the frame, and a 7 gallon auxillary surge" air tank connected to the rear air bags. This creates a smooth ride when bobtailing or towing your travel trailer. The truck also has electric trailer brakes, and a quick disconnect air hose. Fuel mileage is between 10.2 and 10.6 MPG whether towing or bobtail. Tires are 24 inch low pros. The truck has AM FM Stereo cassette radio with weather channel.

It has 10 foreward gears but you never need more than the top six gears if you are towing less than 20,000 pounds. The air ride suspension has been modified to soften the ride when towing a light load such as a fifth wheel travel trailer. The original Holland hitch fits the king pin on a travel trailer perfectly. The king pin is the same size as on over the road trailers.
