Now I'm sure someone's has asked before but I couldn't find the thread, What is the difference s between the standard mfu and the euro truck version of the mfu? I don't have either and have zero experience with the mfu kits, but would like to by one. I was just curious on the differences and what are the pros and cons of both?

Number one is sounds obviously. But I find the Euro sounds like the newer diesels with all the emissions stuff on them. A few of the other differences are the signals don't always come on when you turn like the original, you need to "arm" them. The truck doesn't start up as soon as you turn on power, you have to actually manually start the truck with the remote. You get an air horn and electric horn sound that you can switch back and forth. With the euro you don't have a rev mod however you can use the right stick as a clutch which will allow you to rev the engine but can also slowly release the "clutch" and the truck will respond to it. There's a few other things that I can't think of right now but I'm glad I went with the euro in my Cascadia, specially for the turn signals. That was one thing that always bugged me about the original when I built my knight hauler many years ago.
