This Volvo FH X4 is a used timber truck — also known as a logging truck — a heavy-duty vehicle purpose-built for hauling round timber, long logs, and other forest harvesting material from felling sites to processing facilities. Volvo is a well-established Swedish manufacturer with a long history of producing robust commercial vehicles and trucks for demanding industries including forestry, construction, and long-haul transport.
Built in 2008 and located in Poland, this machine is offered in used condition at a price of $22,000. The truck is configured in a 6x4 axle arrangement and features a full-floor body construction designed specifically for timber and log transport. The stanchion system is of the variable type, meaning the upright stakes that contain and secure the log load can be adjusted to accommodate different timber lengths and volumes.
The driveline is equipped with an automatic gearbox, which reduces driver fatigue on demanding forest roads and simplifies operation in varying terrain. Lubrication is handled by a central greasing system, providing systematic maintenance of key chassis points and helping to extend service life. The suspension is mechanical, a configuration commonly preferred in timber and forestry applications for its durability under heavy and unevenly distributed loads.
A significant feature of this unit is the fitment of a Jonsered 1080 crane with an operator cabin. The Jonsered 1080 is a forestry loader crane, and the presence of a dedicated crane cabin allows the operator to load and unload timber independently, without reliance on external handling equipment. This makes the truck largely self-sufficient for timber loading operations in the field.
