We are a bit sheltered here in the US.
I don't think so. We just have trucks that fit how we use our trucks and regulations just like they have unique trucks to fit their own. Most of what works over there will not work over here and vice versa. There is a lot to choose from here between all of the models from Peterbilt, Kenworth, Mack, Freoghtliner, Volvo, International, Western Star, Hino(Toyota), UD, Izuzu, Ford, and a few others in the class 6, 7 and 8 truck market.
No the Trucks from Hino UD, Isuzu and Mitsubishi are a VERY RESTRICTED RANGE in the US, we get Kenworth( different to US), Mack, ( Differes again larger engine choice) Volvo ( more European , current US model has disappeared from Australia), International ( being reintroduced), Western Star .but we get ones that you do not get at all the European, IVECO, Scania,Mercedes Benz , MAN ,Volvo( European spec)and DAF
