This Volvo machine is unreliable. It falls apart completely. The maximum it can last is about 15,000 hours, then the piston cover breaks and needs to be replaced. It is also very fuel-consuming, I don't know what it is eating, but it consumes about 10 liters of oil per shift. Additionally, in the winter, they have glitches and often fail, so what's the point of having such a dump truck? They used to be of better quality in the past, but now they are just as junky as John Deere dump trucks. All the spare parts are Chinese-made. If we summarize all their negatives, the money spent on them is practically wasted.

Good dump trucks, made with intelligence and for people. I have three years of experience working as a mechanic in a transportation company. I was involved in transportation and worked on this same machine. The equipment in them is good, with autonomous operation, plus fuel filter heating and assistance system for uphill starts. The gearbox is excellent overall. It handles well when working with sand and clay, carrying wet sand, clay with ore, and basically whatever you want - you won't overload it, in short.

Good machine, sturdy, reliable, easy to maintain, although a little expensive, it depends on what it is compared with again. You can see that everything is well thought out to ensure comfort, reliability, and durability. Its off-road performance is excellent when loaded, it works in the quarry on any type of terrain. It hauls cargo uphill and downhill, for it, 30 tons is like 5 tons for a Kamaz truck. In 5 years of working with it, I don't remember any serious breakdowns, only minor issues and regular maintenance were done on time. By the way, I can say that the automatic transmission is better than manual, in my opinion.
