You have the wing mirror version. Believe me the mirror cam version is truly aweful. We have recently acquired 15 of them and they are universally hated. Drivers refuse to drive them, the cameras lack clarity, have no depth or perception and are like looking at a poor quality VHS tape. The view is too narrow, they don’t pan with the trailer when you reverse. Technology that isn’t fully developed.
I drove a brand new one, still in the wrapper straight from the factory. Had daf out twice first day cameras packed in. They couldn't fix it because they didn't know the problem being knew tech. All they could do was disconnect the battery to reset and hope for the best. Who needs that. Still don't know what's so bad about normal mirrors.
Having driven mirror cameras and normal conventional mirrors since 2020, believe you me,the DAF mirror cameras are way way way better than the Mercedes mirror cameras!! (Even though the DAF mirror cameras are still shit). You can just about get used to them in under a week. At one point, I was driving Mercedes mirror cameras for 18 months straight, and I still can’t get reverse onto bay straight 🤦♂️🤣 You are right! Why change a problem that doesn’t need fixing! I’ve heard a common problem of DAF mirror cameras is that the electrics now fail as well!🤦♂️
Camera mirrors, a bad solution to something that didn’t need fixing. Driving an XG with camera mirrors on a narrow unlit road ( or any road for that matter ) at night is the stuff of nightmares you can see f**k all! I’d go as far to say ban them! on safety grounds. A truly stupid idea just to save a few litres of fuel. 🙄
Putting digital screens in vehicles, apparently, is cheaper than analogue buttons and switches and dials/gauges. It's a cost cutting exercise from what I've heard. I thing the interior looks quite neat. I've been in an Actros which is going along the same lines, but the touch screen technology in the one I drove had some negatives. Hill start assist for example wouldn't stay on and I had to keep navigating the screen to it to turn it on. I'd rather that was on a button, not deep in some inconvenient menu. I'd love to have a go in this XG, although I'm not certain I'd give up the electric truck I've been driving.
Good video, DAF made a huge leap forward with the new model. You're wrong about the steering, it is entirely conventional but I also felt it's much nicer than the previous one. DAF also did a good thing by making the engine more audible, much alike the Scania, but a major difference is the wind noise on the motorway, the new one is really quiet, the old one generated a lot of wind noise. The gearbox is mechanically the same yes, but changes are definitely quicker. Personally I think they made the drivers display menu way too complicated, it's not a problem for younger drivers but the seniors could have real problems with it, just like the Mercedes.
Our company has just got 3 of the new DAF XG they are a really nice drive. Very spacious & comfortable seating and bedding. Plenty of storage that's a bonus. Full camera mirrors in stead of the conventional mirrors. They are good but when the camera looses sight of the rear of the trailer on reverse it looses focus an moves off que ! But my biggest bug is the driver window ! It does not fully wind down so you can hang out your window properly for backup if that's how you like to do things ? You are basically hovering over your seat ! Other than that it's a good all round truck 🙏🏻
When I need mega power, I go Scania but, my daily is xg+ 530 and I absolutely love it. It's getting to the line with high end luxury-ish cars in a truck... I'm glad the days of giving drivers shit trucks are gone. We spend 65% of our lives in trucks and deserve some refinement and quality.

Lovely truck Raul. For new prospective drivers wanting to get into trucking from their high tech cars, this is the sort of cockpit theyd want to be. Clean, modern and roomy. Time to scap all those manky trucks and bring trucking into the 21st century! Sorry old timers, this is just want the new generations will expect as standard
The new dafs are really comfortable to drive and feel really solid. The only thing i couldnt get on with is why they put the horn on the end of the indicator stalk. Also be careful with what you put on that pull out tray because things can fall behind and it is a nightmare to get back out.
@@altspitfire I'm partly joking. Too many times I've set horns off on the wheel by accident either by leaning on it or while turning. The stalk is the right spot.
@@altspitfire lol. Well, some idiot at volvo thought it was a good idea to put TWO on the wheel face along with one on the stalk. It's insane. I've hit them dozens of times. Now that I think of it, it might be to prevent drivers from leaning on it....🤔
Brilliant vlog as always mate, thank you very much!!! The new DAF’s are an amazing improvement on previous models. That front camera is amazing!! All trucks should have that!! All the best to you & all the family mate ☺️👍
Great Trucks and drive great . Just dont know what they were thinking regarding the storage . The old XF where Fantastic for Tramping and these new ones are a bit small . Come on DAF increase the Storage please
Maybe I'm just oldschool and I'm only 31yrs old but I hate the idea of replacing everything with buttons like horn and screenwashers and other unnecessary stuff. And also not a fan of mirrors being replaced with cameras. And pretty stupid with no charging points near the bed considering it's a sleeper cab😂😂🤷🤷. But looks ok though. Great review on the truck though Raul.
I drive one of the new XG’s and it is very spacious for someone like me who is out all week. The cameras are slowly growing on me. Mine is very basic without the multi media but it is still well laid out. One thing though that I really hate is there is no 24 volt socket which for a tramper seems ridiculous.
Looks like a big improvement on the previous shite. Still, if it’s a typical daf then it’ll throw out warning lights for fun. It’s a shame because I always loved driving dafs but never could trust the reliability. I drive a Volvo 460 isave and tramp in it and I love that truck. Hands down the best one I’ve driven even if it can feel a little underpowered at times when fully loaded
The Android Auto issue with the connection keep dropping out is usually the cable. Some cables are connected for charging only not all the data wires, also some cables are lower quality. Try different USB cables for the Android Auto. A quality one usually does the trick. I've had this issue in other vehicles and it was always the cable.
I’ve driven the New XG & XF in Eurotruck Simulator 2 (even with the Electronic Mirror Screens) as you can customize Traditional, Electronic or a mix of both, but I still prefer the older Wing mirrors. Yes the visibility is really great in these trucks, even being able to see between the mirrors & A-Pillars when needed. I am looking forward to seeing more of these on the roads near me as time goes on! Looking forward to more videos of you driving this!
We’ve just got a load of them at our firm. Yeh very nice with one exception ours have camera’s instead of conventional wing mirrors and they are completely useless, drivers hate them. Poor visibility, no sense of depth or perception, the cameras track the trailer going forward but not backwards when reversing. Clarity is like watching a 1980s VHS recording, absolute shite, stick with wing mirrors. Nearly forgot, when the cameras crash which they do, you have big problems.
That DAF looks an aswome piece of kit. I have always enjoyed your videos and will continue I am sure but really surprised to see you parked on the pavement in a residential street.
We have some very pretty trucks over in Europe, but I do envy you guys having infinite space in your big nose trucks. You guys got an entire house back there.
The autoplay is a pain, i always Bluetooth my phone, the air vents for the driver piss me off as they always blow on my knees and the steering wheels in the way if you want it on youre face, the gearbox seems to change up through 9-12 faster than the old xf but i think the old xf accelerated faster to 56, but its so true about the space, we have 30 xg and 5 old xf, no one would say a xf super space cab is a small truck but after driving the xg, the xf feels tiny😂
They look really smart to be honest, I like that one In particular as well because unlike most it actually has REAL WINGMIRRORS. Nice vid buddy, continue being a legend:)
nice to see 3D Transport with new DAFS Raul but trust me it will not look like that in six months there trucks get battered i know i used to inspect them when i was on the spanners .
I had a go on a new XF so not too far off. I don’t like the fact that you couldn’t turn off the media screen completely, kept coming back on every time you turned the key iirc, I didn’t like the exterior lighting, you couldn’t just have it on side lights without any bs or noises whilst you work through the night, I don’t like the mirrors, should have cameras imo. I don’t like the grille & design from the b pillar backwards, it just looks ugly/non symmetrical, old one was nice, just a square & simple. Otherwise it’s very quiet & comfortable to drive
I drove one for 1 and a half years, great for sleeping in and spending your time at the end of the working day, but otherwise they're awful. The more I drove the less I liked it. The new cab isn't as practical as the old one. You can't leave your boots on the top step so if you get safety trainers instead they get wet when it rains. The door handles are too chunky and square, try holding the door against the wind. The cup holders aren't as good as the old ones. The radio turns off when you switch off the ignition and open the door. The control panel at the back of the cab stays lit at night. The indicator stalks just aren't finger friendly .The ride comfort is terrible, mine had springs on the front axle. In the time I had the truck it went back to DAF 6 times for an engine flush because Shell diesel clogged the injectors, even after the last time it was flushed the engine was only making the power of a 480 even though it was a 530.
Did you guys know that they only extended the bed room area around 40 something cm. They could of extended it an extra 40cm but they didnt because they thought there might of been issues with length even though it was within the regulations. So I bet companies are going to start extending by that 80cm for the bed. The Volvo XXL bed is bigger than the DAF XG + Bed

@@Raul689 I do take that back then, it looked lovely on the camera. Really impressed with the interior, would love to have a go at the new DAF. Keep on trucking, love the videos👌
Tipping place? Again parking the way it was and making a video just shows the disrespect for the property owners and disregard for vulnerable residents of the community. Kids could be harmed or worse. But at least got a shiny daff with good mirrors and speakers.
Having driven the new even more uncomfortable DUF, Scania remains THE unit. ps. Info system is crap and screen scratched up in a few shifts.....and as many with backaches know, DUF is cheap and nasty and very affected by passing trucks....horrid and a right Fck'up.
Cheap Scania copy in the way it looks, the driving position and what it feels like to drive. That’s not a compliment btw because Scania’s are well over rated.

Such a nice and clean cab and he walks around with his shoes on. So painful to watch😢 💔😅
Trust me when I say it the inside was NOT clean. I would not take my shoes off in that truck. And was a trampers truck. Not to mention the fifth wheel grease stains on the bed...
@@Raul689 I do take that back then, it looked lovely on the camera. Really impressed with the interior, would love to have a go at the new DAF. Keep on trucking, love the videos👌
weird place for a horn
Goes on about the safety aspect of the mirror. And parks it on a pavement and on the wrong side (illegal) f*** the neighbours.
It was a tipping place. Was doing some furniture deliveries
Tipping place? Again parking the way it was and making a video just shows the disrespect for the property owners and disregard for vulnerable residents of the community. Kids could be harmed or worse. But at least got a shiny daff with good mirrors and speakers.
Only 2 charge ports and no auto climate control definately poverty fleet spec
Having driven the new even more uncomfortable DUF, Scania remains THE unit. ps. Info system is crap and screen scratched up in a few shifts.....and as many with backaches know, DUF is cheap and nasty and very affected by passing trucks....horrid and a right Fck'up.
Cheap Scania copy in the way it looks, the driving position and what it feels like to drive. That’s not a compliment btw because Scania’s are well over rated.
A lorry like that parked on pavement outside houses will damage the pavement 😮 if I lived there, I would be telling you to piss off. I'm sure if the council catch you, they will fine you
looks good drives crap
What you doing standing in it in your boots scruff
You couldn't see it on the camera but it was not clean at all. No chance I'm taking my shoes off in that. And was a trampers truck
