I first thought it weighs only 5 tonnes. That time go army open house, told the sergeant this, he told me 5 tonnes is the max load capacity the truck can carry. So, the truck is abt 10tonnes or so. Wah if the truck so light when corning at speed in offroad i think truck might even flip on its sides.
The truck is 16 tonnes with a 280 hp engine, more than enough hps.

Hope that any depot except BNDEP will get this bus.

Well... it's a refill for the diesel. I don't think local gas stations do have such facilities to fill up Adblue.
Yes... Gorba's from Germany. In fact, Gorba AG is an indication that it should be from Germany. If one is interested in its company profile and products, take a look at Gorba's website @ http://www.gorba.com/index.php?id=6&L=1 .

i believe both B7RLE and MAN are cheaper than OC500LE.

But sadly there is only one 8030L and 8031J in SBST's fleet.
-
This new Merc also has foglights like the SMRT's OCs and SBS8031J making it look even more cooler.

(too much smoke from the pipe) at SLE.I agree SMRT Merc are the best. Even more shiok when its a BENDY. 856 bendies like to chiong, especially along Adm Rd West. Always empty roads, then bus driver late, epic win.
80+KMH in a bendy is awesome. Box Bendy, Batch 2 Voith Habits, they will CHIONG!

You are right. A petrol engine at 12 litre eats fuel like water. Just like those german tanks such as Tiger and Panther tanks during WWII, they using V12 23litre petrol engines. They got a fuel economy of 3.5 l/km. Thats alot of fuel.

Yeah. But 280hp is considered low for modern trucks, tho i not sure about the age of the MANs. Most modern trucks are at least 310bhp. Btw, does the MANs have adjustable suspension height? I took one during the AOH and it seemed like the truck adjusted its suspension at some point when offroad.
