Faced with a steep hill on one of his company’s routes, owner-driver Dan Ayling of DA Commercials decided that his fourth Mercedes-Benz Arocs truck needed to be his most powerful. Hence, his new Arocs 3253 tipper has a 12.8-litre, inline six-cylinder, OM 471 engine with 530 horsepower (390 kilowatts) to handle the hill near Exeter, Devon.

DA Commercials of Beer, Devon, delivers concrete, tarmac, aggregates, and sand throughout South West England. Ayling needed the more powerful tipper truck to make 64-kilometre (40-mile) round trips out of Stoneycombe Quarry near Newton Abbott in the English Riviera region.

Mercedes-Benz Trucks dealer City West Commercials supplied the new Arocs 3253 with a ClassicSpace M-cab and a roof-mounted Ecco light bar. The truck rides on shiny Alcoa Dura-Bright alloy wheels. Aliweld of Ryton, Newcastle, provided its insulated, aluminium tipping body.
