Although I am not a truck enthusiast, I find your reviews of various trucks interesting, informative, enjoyable and very worthwhile. I think you could do videos on anything and you would have a big following because of your professionalism, honesty, content, production quality and of course your brilliant commentary! You do it all very well Stavros, CHEERS!
I have some friends who work for a local company and they love their DAF lorries, the company previously ran Scania, MAN and Iveco, but they prefer the DAF for the same reasons you mentioned, quite, comfortable, fuel efficient and good value for money.
Another excellent video Stavros. I split time between a XF105 510 and a rental MAN TGS 26.540. Here in Australia we get a very different Product to Europe; we have Kenworth rear air suspension, Meritor diffs and drum rear brakes, still on Euro 5. It is very rough whilst bobtail but improves remarkably with a decent load on. I agree it is a very quiet truck, the quietest I’ve ever driven. It’s quite a pleasant place to spend a working day. Thanks for the videos, keep up the good work.
I came off Mercedes for Scania.... Then off Scania for DAF over 20 yrs ago now..... For comfort and space I would not leave a Super or a Space Cab..... I absolutely loved my 95 XF Space Cab.!!! Saying that i'm now in a 85 DAF CF 410....Company doesn't go for big cabs anymore..... awww what a pity I hear.!!!!!!! Great vid fella once again and good honest review as always.!!!!! Mossy,!
Another great review. I do like your enthusiastic commentary. So pleased to see you have a new pair of shoes. Bit more up to date. More truck reviews please. Any make, any model
Amazing pronounciation of DAF, Van Doorne's Aanhangwagenfabriek N.V. I live in Eindhoven, where these amazing trucks are being built, love that you try to pronounce such a difficult name! Also, amazing reviews, keep it up!
Cant go wrong with a daf, one of the comfiest trucks on the road, and i love the mirror style. Really easy to gauge depth in the front mirror and curb mirror so tight manoeuvres are that little bit easier.
It’s interesting to see the European trucks compared to what we have here in North America. I’ve always liked cab over trucks, and the styling of the DAF is a 10 in my opinion. I have wondered why these trucks aren’t imported to North America? The safety features, driver comforts, and refinement seem decades ahead of some of our trucks. Although I’m not a fan of all the features, I did really like the keyless entry and bulb self test feature. Very well-thought engineering. Just out of curiosity, do you know what final drive (axle) gear ratios are offered / common with these trucks? It looked like the transmission gears were approximately 450 rpm apart, so that is very similar to an Eaton 9 speed we are used to.
Very nice video! First time watching your videos, but I will sure come back :) Why did you used the 80km/h in the motorway? In Portugal - and many other EU countries - the truck speed limit is 90km/h.
Good review- I like a DAF I’d have one before anything other than Volvo No need to change a great cab design better to live in than ANY. Other tractor unit. Superspace is better though Good video
A nice review of this DAF. My company in Holland uses it also, together with some Mercedes and Scania's. Some of these Scania's are LNG powered. I drive a Mercedes as a daily driver.. It is also equiped with the latest safety gadgets. How do you feel about using the steering nob? It has been told to me that it could damage the steering aid(?) because it is used when standing still, or at low speed. Thnx for your response..
Tesla or a DAF? Hummm it's DAF for the win in my book. Thanks Stavros, once more for a great truck informative video and nice to see a new one too, err not so battle worn. Nope you beat me on this model Stavros, 95 XF,105 XF then down to 85 CF on my night trunks. The little cameras in the wind-lets might add to the lower door wind noise (might).
Isn't DAF a division of Paccar ??? I see the headlights are similar design to the 579 peterbilt here in the states. Just wondering if we'll see some of the technology from this truck in American trucks in the future???
Truckers getting it easy these days I used to drive a avm daf 1160 with a 9 speed fuller box 100mph easy down hill with 40ton of steel Durban to Zambia no air con and a metal engine cover
my favourite is Tanya aur 450 truck interior very nice output Very nice interesting function display very easily and coming soon made in Bangladesh market ok 😚

Thank you, much appreciated
Yes indeed i think quite so to its very interesting
That cab is originally a Cabtech design from 1987 used by DAF, Seddon Atkinson and Pegaso.
I love daf trucks so thank you stavros

You don't seem like you're a great lover of it.
I love the idea of being able to check your lights from that button on the key fob.
Dutch sure know how to make trucks :)
Wow... this is my first time I see Daf Truck mr stavros. Cause I never seen that truck before. So I like that... 👍👍👍
Always did like the Dafs. Great space to live, better with the taller cab

Excellent review Stavros

Yes thank you stavros finally
Thank you stavros for making DAF truck video.cheeersss....
Nice truck! and brilliant video!
great video Stavros
greetings from Spain
@Stavros DAF main focus was comfort for the driver of DAF truck plus all the safety features and plus you can get a 480hp
Looks solidly built
Very Nicely Done. Keep it up
Great Video Stavros! Now only Iveco and Tesla semi remaining 😜
Thank you. I love your trucking video.
Great video as usual mate prefer the Daf got to be the most comfortable truck especially the bed
Awesome video
so satisfying and very informative
Didn't know Paccar owned DAF. Probably a lot of similarities to the Kenworths and Peterbilts we have here in America.
Thanks Stavross
excellent review
I own a DAF XF Mega Space Cab 4x2 440 Astronic 2016 Euro6 and I love it. A bit slowish gearbox but supergood comfort and space. Good fuel economy. 👍🏻
Keep going man keep going
It is the only peace of technic witch is sadly left in the Netherlands. Nice to see you apreciate DAF
Cant go wrong with a daf, one of the comfiest trucks on the road, and i love the mirror style. Really easy to gauge depth in the front mirror and curb mirror so tight manoeuvres are that little bit easier.
A happy Bambi the Queen of England calls that a scrap daffy
I like the sound DAF
Haha i was watching you jack the cab just after i wrote that thanks for the info love the vidoe's
That gear box is really dated now. Theyve changed it for a traxion unit in the new updated one. Great review mate
Loved it @stavros969
always the best, bravo goes on like this and please do truck videos more often💪
I am a fan of DAF and I love the euro 6 series and the pure excellence series which came to the UK and ireland this year
BEASTY BOY 539 I've been DAF fan all my life and I love the 95 DAFs with the Cummins Engines
Thanks
Thanks for very great truck reviews, my question for you is “ How do you tell the sockets of doozies?”
Nice job
Thank u for doing truck vids

Thorough as always Stavros, any chance you could get a look at the Volvo FH 4?
We drive only DAF XF 106 530. And its a unbelivable experience
I like the way you explain thanks Stavros from Victor S A
finally DAF
Yes finely!
Very nice video!
First time watching your videos, but I will sure come back :)
Why did you used the 80km/h in the motorway?
In Portugal - and many other EU countries - the truck speed limit is 90km/h.
Cool review on this DAF,but can you make a review on the Iveco Stralis Hi-way or Iveco Stralis Euro 6?or how do you want to say.
I wonder if that wind noise could be down to the cameras placed in the cab corner deflectors?
Good review- I like a DAF I’d have one before anything other than Volvo
No need to change a great cab design better to live in than ANY. Other tractor unit. Superspace is better though Good video
My step dad drives a DAF XF and I sometimes go in it for the night when he works for Linney refrigerated Transport in u.k Oldahm
Nice truck, although the old school dafs from the 80's look a lot better than these ones.
A nice review of this DAF. My company in Holland uses it also, together with some Mercedes and Scania's. Some of these Scania's are LNG powered. I drive a Mercedes as a daily driver..

Shaun Moore DAF is the best
24:51 Nice horn
Can you do a Ford F Max review, I don't know if they are in Ireland or the UK but they look good
Nice Car
Dad xf vrey good company truck😀
there a good truck I had a cf 85.440 2002
Are you a truckdriver Stavros? Nice video :)
can you make a video for the iveco Stralis AS2 euro 5?
DAF XF nice 460
24:20 I think almost all the articulated lorries from the 7 manufacturers in Europe have been awarded International Truck of the Year in some year
Lovely, quiet comfortable cab. Gutless as a gutless thing though.
Rust quickly
What kind of transmission is used in these trucks? did you ever drove a long trip with an manual gearbox?
Isn't DAF a division of Paccar ??? I see the headlights are similar design to the 579 peterbilt here in the states. Just wondering if we'll see some of the technology from this truck in American trucks in the future???
Truckers getting it easy these days I used to drive a avm daf 1160 with a 9 speed fuller box 100mph easy down hill with 40ton of steel Durban to Zambia no air con and a metal engine cover
great videos! what is the inside height off the cabin? thnx
No dipstick ? I hope the sensors for the gauge in the oil pan are bang on cue.
On what considerations did this thing win Truck of the Year 2018?
Just like listening to my own truck (Peterbilt) starting
my dad says that DAF stants for Gave an arse a truck which in lithuanian is: Dave Asilui Fura
More video truck old school bro,,,I really like Volvo fh16
Nyc sir
Can you do one vdo for Chinese trucks eg howo, beiben, or faw trucks
If it ain't Dutch, it ain't much! ;-)
I’m surprised that the transmission is automatic. Is that becoming more popular in Europe?
Where do you put the TV?
my favourite is Tanya aur 450 truck interior very nice output Very nice interesting function display very easily and coming soon made in Bangladesh market ok 😚
Be they've all been wired up with a magnet 😂
Please do Iveco Stralis Hi-Way 560 hp
Did he show the air horns
Wooooww
what is add blue ?
If you see this you sould do POV driving videos of the trucks
It isnt a daf 2018 model thats also why it doesnt shift fast
Please take a look at ivecos 😁
DerETS2 Fahrer they are trash.
which one is shifting gears faster, volvo dual clutch or new generation scania
Great question!
Black Hand
New generation scania is better and faster shifting gear...
True
Of course scania ng upgraded gearboxes.when we compare volvo fh with scania streamliner,we will understand that volvo fh is sooooo faster
This might sound daft but why would you only have a electric guage for oil what if it fails?
Aaron Ruff If it failed you would have to jack the cab and use the dipstick
Do the Renault magnum plz
