How reliable are DAF trucks? ›

The most popular DAF truck of the 90's was the 65 and 75 and 85, all of which had a wedge-shaped cabin. These were powered 6.24-litre, 8.65-litre and 11.6-litre engines. There was also the 745, a short-lived model with an ATI driveline. In our experience, DAF trucks are extremely reliable.

“We're really impressed with the DAF XG's economy,” he said, “11.0mpg straight out of the box is excellent for our operation, and that's only going to get better once they're bedded in. The new XG is a big step forward for DAF and the truck is more in line with the type of vehicle we want on our fleet,” said Harry.

The New Generation DAF XG⁺ has been awarded 'Best UK Diesel Tractor' at the prestigious Fleet News Awards '22. At the same occasion, the jury crowned the DAF LF 'Best Two-axle Lightweight Rigid Truck' and the DAF CF 'Best Rigid Truck'.

DAF trucks have the most spacious cabins available on the market. Drivers see and experience this space in all elements of the cabin — whether they are working, sleeping or on a stop-off. There is significantly more space in the interior than in any other truck.

Market-leading fuel efficiency starts with the engine. The DAF XF is powered by multi-torque PACCAR MX-11 and MX-13 engines with new power ratings, including an extra powerful 390 kW/530 hp variant. Many innovations result in even more torque at lower rpm for highest fuel efficiency.

The DAF LF is a range of light/medium duty trucks produced by the British manufacturer Leyland Trucks. It is a redevelopment from the Leyland Roadrunner of 1984. The LF45 and LF55 are powered by Cummins B Series engines.

MAN trucks are considered one of the best brands for long-haul heavy-duty transportation. Dutch-based DAF is considered among the top 3 best truck brands in Europe. DAF is a part of PACCAR Inc, a manufacturer of premium quality light, medium and heavy-duty commercial vehicles.

I find the Scania's interior to be drab and boring, but its instruments and digital display are excellent and easy to read. The DAF, on the other hand, has a more difficult-to-read display, and smaller but still legible analog gauges. However, its interior is a more pleasant place with the wood on the dash.

DAFs provide streamlined grantmaking, helping philanthropic dollars reach nonprofits quickly and efficiently. DAF sponsors handle all due diligence and reporting, simplifying organization and administration. DAFs can be used to facilitate a charitable legacy, dovetailing conveniently with estate planning.
