How we recommend choosing
- Start with the route: highway, port, quarry approach road or mixed road.
- Confirm gross combination weight and trailer type before selecting horsepower.
- Check whether the destination workshop is more familiar with TX or NX service parts.
- Request pre-shipment photos of VIN, engine label, gearbox label, axle label, tires and cab interior.
- Keep the final specification attached to the quotation, PI and sales contract.
