Scania

I guess we will also get to know the least popular truck brand.

Has to be DAF, as I am Dutch. Added to that, I don't care for the high bhp engines that Scania and Volvo offer: I find their dashboards very cluttery and not easy to read, while I can get relevant information without any trouble on the DAF dashboard.

@Tiger313

I can agree with that, but isn't everything. There are other factors that are far more important, bhp it's mostly up to the driver's preferences.

Cheers,

I actually have several favorite brands of trucks.
1st place is MAN
2nd place is DAF
3rd place is Volvo
4th place is Scania
5th place is Renault
Sixth place is Iveco
and 7th place is Mercedes.

Since I could only choose one brand here, I took MAN;)

I really love the Range T... so my vote goes for Renault.

But if I have to make a podium, Renault, Scania and Volvo.

Renault for me, or more specifically the Magnum. Still remember seeing the Mk 1 for the first time; the cab and styling were so imposing.

The Premium makes a great, solid starter truck and The Range T looks and drives great.

All that said, I still have a huge soft spot for the Scania T

My go-to is the MAN TGX- ideally an XXL for the virtually-unrivalled visibility, but I'm very happy with my 320hp 4x2 XL. My second choice would be Volvo, then Scania.

Mercedes are decent to drive but expensive. Ivecos are also pretty nice to drive but have no design, the new Renaults have nice interiors but otherwise don't stand out at all, and as much as I like DAF- especially as they're built in my home town- you can't really get the same monstrous haul-anything-without-any-effect-on-performance variants like you can with the Swedes.

Speaking only of the latest model in each brand, Mercedes is hands down my most favourite one. DAF, Scania and MAN are also my next favourites. I rarely use Renault, Volvo and Iveco.
