i loved the b7r’s . i will travel in the b9r i hope. volvo is awesome . i can’t spot the difference between
volvo b7r and jcbl kinglong kl 6113
(i am unsure about the model no) .
both are awesome .
the travel was great . but jcbl has a upper hand in time display
(big lcd occupying the front of the cabin at the left ) and audio with impressive
low frequency .
these are not available in volvo b7r . hope it is available in b9r .
why there are 4 pedals in volvo b7r .
1 accelerator
2 brake
3 clutch
4 ?
