You do realize this was recorded over 12 years ago with a 04 or 05 R series and I didn't even know it was still up 😂. Anyway, from what I remember it would not do it a gear higher and it was never over 1500rpm and does go down to 1100 at the heaviest part. But I haven't even had anything to do with anything regarding trucks for over 7 years nor do I have any desire to.
On the map it seems RV77 has a tunnel. Here You're diving the road that is considered now as bike trek. Wasn't the tunnel available at time of filming?
Climbed this hill with my Isuzu Giga 500, had her tuned up to 590hp, use to hit her at 95km fully loaded and lug her right down to 4th low 35km on the steepest hill man that truck could lug even with 50 tonne
Look very strong on climbing hill, in malaysia, old scania 143 single axle can only keep maintain their rev, slowly going up by gear 1 or 2, with the load 40 ton or 50ton .. speed even slower and human walk😂 sometimes he take a little rest half way up, but scania keep going up, no problem al all.. you should try to put your camera on the roof pointed backward, and make sure exhaust tips also inside the camera angle
Yes you get to see the "world" and it's nice for a couple of years. But honestly, it's just roads. Literally the same where ever you go, some snow, hills, straights . Wouldn't recommend it to my worst enemy.
Scanny,s coolest engine , crumb,s my old hoover washing machine on the spin cycle is louder than your wagon, fit a straight stub pipe make her bark like any self respecting Scanny V-8, you are so lucky.
I would never ever willingly fitt a straightpipe on the truck. The weeks I had to drive with one when I jumped around trucks in the beginning was enough. On the other hand it would been nice to try out a hybrid turbo and a real tune to get it over 800hp, just a tuningbox and plugged wastegate in the video.But aint driving anymore and the world has gone environmental mad so aint worth the fines
The load was silicon metal, has enormous mass and loaded in bulk on a walking floor. So it was no higher than a couple of cm spread out evenly over the trailer. Like a heavy go-cart. Fun ass hell to drive. Especially later when i got a full air ride, tuned and QUIET 620 😎 (that exhuast gets anoying after 15min)
Great video! I am jealous of you. I have driven in terrain like this in Oregon and Northern CA with a full sized tanker -- with a Freightliner Cascadia with a 13 liter Detroit DD13 and a 10 speed Eaton Fuller tranny. Your Scania sounds a LOT better!!
Of course it does! Its engine, transmission and dive axles are all made by Scania, not a hodge podge collection of parts from third party manufacturers . . .

Well I think it is fun ☺. As long as you have over 500hp it doesn't seam to mather on that hill. I drive a tuned 620 now that leavs 730 behind and it doesn't really go any faster up there than that old 580
Yaa, great video. My fave part is you having to gear down from 37 to 115 time. I am making video of me having to gear down too. I drive WesternStar w/525 cat x 18 speed and on this hill I hit at 90km/h, I shift every gear down from 16th(7 hi) to 9th(4th low) to 30km/h. (66,000kg's) Scania V-8 Sound is like orchestra music, classical and beautiful. thanks joey
Iceeeen yup i guess it's nice to have 6x4 and on the 6x2 you can always lift the trailing axle to get more grip but if you're driving a 4x2 tractor + trailer than i guess it's either chains + skill or luck + skill :D
swedengines. Dere svensker skal ha skryt :) Dere er veldig flinke til å bygge lastebiler !!! :) Fortsett med det ! For det kan dere virkelig :) For en herlig V8'er lyd ! Her jobber scania'n skikkelig hardt ! :) Scania og Volvo for alltid !!! Så får vi Nordmenn ta oss av Oljeletingen og Oljeboringen !!! :) :) :)
