RE: Re: European Invasion
Manny,
Love the Volvos! I was lucky enough to drive Sean Molloy's quite a bit at Northwest Mogfest. He has the open cab one like yours. If I were to purchase another European vehicle, it would definitely be the Volvo over a Pinzgauer or Unimog.
Brian,
I am 6'2" and am quite comfy in my U1300L. The cab is completely different than the older style Mogs and is built more like a truck where you sit upright with plenty of head and arm room.

Check out the pics of my Unimog:

IMO, European mv's are far superior in comfort and engineering than US mv's. I've owned both.

Bjorn,
The U1300L can carry a 2 ton payload. I've had 1.5 pallets of sod in my Mog and it did just fine but they were a bit top heavy and because of the flexible suspension, it exaggerated the side to side movement around turns.

If you gents ever get a chance, you are welcome to the biggest European invasion in August...Northwest Mogfest. We usually have a turnout of 75-100 vehicles including Mogs, Pinzgauers, Halflingers, Volvo's, and VW's. It's the largest Mog event and a lot of fun.
