Renault Df417

In the automotive world, the "Renault DF417" is less of a folk tale and more of a technical standard

The Renault Galion was the quintessential medium-duty truck of the 1960s. With a gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) between 6 and 8 tons, the Galion equipped with the DF417 was a favorite among builders, farmers, and logistics companies. The engine’s long-stroke design allowed the truck to pull away from stop signs with a full load of sand or timber without stalling. renault df417
