Been driving trucks for years, just finished a run with the Actros 2545LS and figured I’d share before I forget. What stands out? All the safety stuff is everywhere - lane keeping, traffic sign assist, brake assist that sees people wandering out. Makes you feel a bit more secure, especially with all the chaos on UK roads. Does make you double-check the settings just to be sure nothing suddenly takes over when you don’t want it. The cruise control is clever, adjusts for roundabouts and bends, but don’t let it do the thinking for you - it missed a few things in traffic and had no clue what to do at busy junctions. You really need to stay sharp. Driving position’s good, plenty of space for my junk, phone charges easy, cab’s actually pretty quiet which is great for those long night runs. Wouldn’t mind better fuel numbers but, to be fair, the weather and traffic were awful during my week. A couple of small gripes with plastics in the cab, and the wireless charging pad is more slippery than you’d think! Still, it’s a solid truck, feels reliable, just not perfect.

Mercedes-Benz Actros 1836 - of course, it's quality. And it doesn't matter if you're buying a truck or a car. Before Actros, I used to work with KAMAZ. Then I was lucky enough to switch to this machine that immediately impressed me in every way. The Germans always excel in the quality of assembly. Yes, they are expensive, but that's already the price for comfort, reliability, and convenience. Of course, there's a small downside. Since two years ago, the body started to rust, but it's inevitable with time. After all, the vehicle is almost 20 years old. Mercedes promptly dealt with the corrosion, they don't tolerate neglectful treatment.

This is not a car, but a piece of you-know-what. I've been dreaming of getting rid of it for a long time. It's as rigid as a Kamaz, and the ride, whether in economy or regular mode, is irritating. The car is overall noisy and uncomfortable, with a weak engine barely pulling 21 tons, and it's even worse on inclines, not to mention the stupid gearbox. All I see are downsides, especially considering the prices for servicing. Engine problems are frequent because of coolant leaks. It's a headache for them, some kind of fault between the cooling system and the crankcase, and they are very difficult in repairs.

The car is very reliable, the weak point is the compressor, the cold cabin, and it sways very much on the accordions due to the fact that the drive axle on two pillows is otherwise normal, on Russian Ukrainian roads the average fuel consumption is 31-33 liters per 100 km, it sits on the heights, in general, not a bad car, if you want to make money, this car will suit you, if you want comfort then DAF XF

Been driving the Actros for a few months, and the overall layout of the cab stands out. The visibility is great with that bright interior design. The engine operates smoothly even under challenging conditions. Although, at times, I felt the torque could drop slightly too low on steep climbs, requiring careful adjustments. It's robust and economical, saving on fuel when handled correctly.

The machine is superb, I wouldn't want to change it for any other. What can I say, people have made it for people, and the Germans, in general, make cars that are great for the drivers - everything is maximally comfortable, functional, and very convenient. I have been in long-haul driving for 14 years and I can confidently say that the 2000s cars are legends. On any incline, you press the gas pedal until it clicks, and there is no equal to you. The control system is excellent, and everything in the cabin is top-notch. In short, in my opinion, nothing can surpass a Mercedes-Benz, only another Mercedes.

I have driven this Actros for nearly 500,000 kilometers. The problems mainly arise with the EGR due to the fact that European vehicles are designed for good quality fuel, so make sure to use proper fuel and everything will be fine. Fuel consumption, reliability, driving experience, comfort, and noise insulation are all similar to other trucks. I compared it with Volvo and MAN. Overall, the pulling power of the Mercedes is good, but I can't highlight anything particularly special. This truck is for work, and regular maintenance and care help avoid any serious issues.
