A useful reminder of the different models is available on this Canadian page (only in French. No Canadian English nor US English equivalent):
Quote [Image: volvovnl.jpg]
Couchette - toit élevé 61 pouces (1) - Capot long // 61" Tall - Sleeper - Long Hood

⇒ this one is a VNL 670 indeed ;)
_____

1: 61"/1.37 m = length of the cab, i.e. without the hood?

What you can also notice is the round badge near the door. That was affixed to all 2007 model year Volvos commemorating 10 years of the VNL series in production.

I hope you'll understand that this unsourced detail can't be checked unless doing a lot of pictures comparisons, with the possibility of finding numerous trucks with a wrong model year. Even the picture you provided doesn't say "2007" ;)
You already gave (unintentionally, of course) wrong model years for the identification of some trucks, so I'd like some "stronger" clues to validate it: any Volvo corporate page, or even a mention in a truck enthusiasts site? At least a trustworthy website giving 1997 as 1st year for the VN-Series?

Not really as I've seen on many occasions here that "unsourced" info is posted and vehicle data is updated anyway. But as far as this is concerned, I have several sources.
First:
http://www.purplewave.com/cgi-bin/mnlist.cgi?131217/G8917
Second:
http://www.purplewave.com/cgi-bin/mnlist.cgi?150317/K2313/showall
Third is actually here on IMCDb.. and you can see said decal:
/vehicle_156674-Volvo-VNL-64T-670-2007.html
Fourth is my experience. I've driven 2 - 2007 VNL670s with the DOM of July/2006 and November/2006, and they both sported this decal. Now, this company, Knight Transportation based out of Phoenix, AZ, started purchasing these VNLs in 2005 through today.

Some other admins may trust / have trusted unconditionally what is written in comments and validate it, but I don't. All the more as we all make mistakes sometimes.

1st and 2nd links you give are classified ads, and I saw too much wrong model years given to vehicles in this kind of website: I only take this kind of source with extreme caution, and only as indirect and dubious sources.
3rd is an IMCDb page, without external source, so as trustworthy as a classified ad for me ;)
4th... I say often that I'm a bear (and use a picture to "prove" it in my profile page), there is for now a flag of the Republic of Nauru to indicate the place I'm supposed to live, but as we never met, should you believe any of these details without proof? :D

This said, thanks, as "your" classified ads give both a link to Carfax: I eventually and indirectly got the trustworthy source I asked for :)
