All of a sudden I am seeing more imported Mercedes trucks! Today it was four Arocs models with snow plow trailers by the Norwegian snow removal specialist Øveraasen.
The four units are destined for the Calgary Airport Authority and are numbered 100 to 103 and marked YYC (the call letters of the Calgary airport.) The tractors are rigged for plows, which are not fitted.
I have covered similar rigs in the past, and learned that the swing out motor for the trailer plows is mounted at the end of the trailer, with its weight directly over the rear wheels.
