I've done a lot of long hauls in the DAF XF105 over the years. The biggest thing for me is that cab space. They really put some thought into the storage, which I appreciate when I've got to be out for a week or more. The fridge is decent and that little folding ladder for the top bunk is a nice touch. Headroom's alright, even for taller folks. The ride's comfy enough, probably thanks to that all-air suspension. Not much road noise in the cab either, the motor's quiet unless you're really working it. Only real gripe I have is price, even used it's not cheap, but you kinda get what you pay for in terms of comfort. Maintenance hasn't been a hassle for me, just keep up with the usual and it's reliable. Gearbox is mostly smooth, though sometimes the auto waits a bit long to upshift for my taste.

I've driven the DAF XF 105 firsthand and found its handling and cabin comfort appealing. The engine performance, especially its torque range, provides a smooth highway experience. However, the absence of a trailer brake hand mechanism in the manual version requires added care. The cab space offers excellent storage, which is practical for long hauls. Overall, a reliable choice with some areas for improvement.

I’ve been driving the DAF LF 45 for a while now. Took it through some hilly terrain recently with a 5-ton load. The fuel consumption showed a bit higher than I’d like, hitting around 18 liters per 100 km. But considering the challenging routes and the weight carried, it's manageable. Interior comfort is decent for long hauls. However, I’ve noticed a slight hitch with air supply when idling. Planning to have it checked soon.

I've had the chance to drive the DAF CF85 equipped with the 510hp MX-13 engine, and I must say, it's a decent truck for metro and regional operations. The handling felt smooth, especially in tight urban circumstances, and the engine performance provided sufficient power for moderate loads. However, the manual cab tilt seems a bit out-of-date compared to contemporary mechanisms. Overall, it's solid but could fine-tune some features for better user convenience.

I'm currently driving the DAF XF 480 FT 2019. The impressions are good. In practice, I have confirmed that the manufacturer is not lying. It consumes less fuel than previous generations. You can save about 10 percent on fuel compared to the DAF FT XF 105.460.

There are many pluses, it's hard to name them all. Comfortable. Quite economical. Large cabin. Among the disadvantages - when carrying 15 tons, you won't get more than 40 on the ascent.

I drive a DAF XF 480 EURO 6 2019. A driver with a lot of experience, I have something to compare it to - I prefer DAF over MAN - it smoothly overcomes road bumps. The machine is very comfortable for the driver - it has a refrigerator, satellite navigation, plenty of space for things. Not very convenient that there is no armrest on the left - it is uncomfortable to rest my hand on the door.

I recently got to drive the DAF LF 55, and it left an impression. The 220hp engine provides sufficient power for most tasks, although maneuvering in tight spots can be a tad challenging. Noise levels are quite low, which makes longer drives less tiring. However, the cross-cab access is somewhat obstructed by the gear lever. Visibility, especially behind, is excellent-essential for urban operations.

Recently, I upgraded to the latest generation of the DAF CF. The improved fuel efficiency due to engine upgrades has been noticeable. The automatic transmission is a pleasant addition, making urban maneuvering much easier. However, the truck's suspension could handle rough terrain better, in my opinion.

I drove the DAF LF 55 recently. The cargo space is quite nice, around 60 cubic meters, and the payload handles up to 7 tons effectively. The cab is narrow but functional for two passengers. The suspension offers a smooth experience, but I found the handling less responsive compared to some other models I've driven.
