Yes , all the Dafs and mercs are auto boxes . They get a fair bit of stick in Quarries and off roading at farms We were a bit concerned about going up the auto route but would,nt entertain manuals now . Had no problems with the Dafs, as long as a driver knows when to change to manual in tough going cant see them being up to the job ,so yes would say its much more to do with drivers rather than the trucks .Do you have the auto gearbox on the Daf?
Lot of guys over here getting them with 18 speed roadrangers as they say the auto's aren't up to it, could be the pilots though.
