AFTER DECIDING TO move away from AdBlue and SCR, Aberdeen-based ARR Craib has taken delivery of 25 MAN TGA tractor units and has another 18 on order for December and January.
It has also placed an order for eight new MAN TGX units for delivery late next year.
The company ran a comparison trial of EGR and SCR starting in April 2006 and MD George Craib says that as a result he "definitely wants to move away from Ad Blue". Hence the move to MAN's EGR-engined tractors.
"We've always seen it as an unnecessary inconvenience and now our trials have proved that the MAN EGR engine is more economical too."
ARR Craib's 200-truck fleet has traditionally been dominated by Oaf, but Craib says: "It's MAN that's now closing the gap."
