If Benz is rated the same as MAN then the 140 HP is bloody big Horses, it's at the back wheels, a 9215 (215 hp) Man is better than a 320 Volvo and a loaded 280 MAN will overtake a 320 Volvo with a empty Tautliner on any rising ground. HP is a air and fuel calculation (no fan no fly wheel in a lot of cases) depends on the country of origin.

Laying in bed about midnight remembering which trucks and when and which trucks carting fertilizer from Port Kembla to Oberon all them years ago, it would have been the loaded 360 MAN rounding up empty Oberon Freighters 320's and my 9215 Man was truck and two axle dog with the same pay load equal to Oberon Freighters 320's with Tri axle, and Brian Nunan's 237 cabover Mack only about twenty minutes behind when you got home.

So it has only 140 horses. I would have it if they are offering and I promise not to use the air conditioner very often.

I have my shoulder to the wheel,
my nose to the grindstone,
I've put my best foot forward,
I've put my back into it,
I'm gritting my teeth,

Now I find I can't do any work in this position!
