I've driven an Aoling 4.2 truck for several years. I remember its curb weight typically ranges between 2.5 to 3 tons, depending on the configuration. For example, when empty it's about 2.6 tons, and the weight increases significantly when loaded. This weight makes it quite stable on highways without feeling too light, but frequent starts in urban areas consume more fuel, costing significantly more per day compared to smaller vehicles. The build quality is decent, but if overloaded beyond 4.5 tons gross weight, the braking becomes challenging, posing safety risks. For maintenance, I regularly check the tires and suspension as the heavy weight accelerates wear on these components. I recommend choosing a better suspension system when purchasing - it makes driving easier and extends the vehicle's lifespan. Overall, this truck is suitable for medium-short distance freight transport and proves quite practical when weight is properly managed.
