  -> I'd say they are equal
neutral  David Moore: Looks decidely odd in the context; the turbocharger parts are far more likely to be for cars than lorries...
27 mins
  -> nonsense; there are lots of heavy trucks with turbochargers around - see e.g. www.scania.de/lkw/technology/turbocompound/how_does_it_work...
