I agree with this and Marcus's post above.
The X7 wouldn't bring out the publicised fuel efficiency in the Streetlites, Non stop for most of the route would be torture to a small Eco-Voith and a small 4 Cylinder Cummins, One could argue that the 8/78 have non stop runs, Though at least they can get there breath back on the slow stop start sections etc
The Citaros are built to last, And would easily do out a few more years without problem. And a 10.7l engine does come in handy when on the fast sections
