New Volvos

 Volvo's North American trucks have stepped up to the plate in terms of appearance. Their older models - which I always thought were okay looking - now appear stodgy by comparison to the "all new" VML. I have only seen this model recently, so here are the two examples I have seen so far.

MacKay's, the dealer in Truro, had one on the lot last weekend, which I saw while I was en route to the Atlantic Truck Show in Moncton.

Conrad's Transport (part of the Ocean Group - loyal Volvo customers themselves with their bright green transit mixers) has at least one on the road (fleet number 003) - joining older model units.

Shuttling ACL containers from Fairview Cove, and old (Triple Crown?) trailers at Pier 9C seems kind of "under utilizing" the assets, but at least it stood still long enough for a picture.
