Yeah, most Mercedes cars from that era have a steering wheel that looked just like that. But the whole paragraph is pretty senseless. Of course it looked like a car cockpit - because you couldn't fit a truck cockpit into the available height! And the Recaro seats were probably the least they could do to have acceptable ergonomics for truck drivers who spend far longer in that seat than the average car driver.

What? This is a standard issue Mercedes Benz W123 steering wheel, even the logo is right there. Why would the author need to refer to BMW?
