Full Interior Tour of our New Scania, Saying Goodby for 8 weeks…. 

Yeah you got the Subwoofer in the top back shelf! I was the responsible engineer of the loudspeakers and infotainment/radio system at Scania. I fought so hard to keep the Subwoofer project alive, I left Scania before it went into production. So happy to see it make it through. 🙂

As a veteran American driver of 26 years, I gotta say, this is the coolest truck I’ve ever seen.

I am a lifelong KW driver, third generation in my family, always with American trucks. Now I have a 620hp Scania V8 in Mexico. I wouldn't go back to an American truck even if I'm drunk. My friends have W900s with C15 and C16 engines. I always humiliate them on the climbs and descents. They are also saving up to leave the American junk behind and get a Scania.

Here in the US we NEED these trucks only because all these other manufacturers don’t make quality trucks like they use to now it is mostly fast turn around with poorly made parts and when you need to replace parts it’s never available vs scania if you need a part THEY HAVE IT!

As a 48-year old Swede... I realise I've been taking Scania for granted all these years... After seeing your videos and the enthusiasm for Scania suddenly I look at Scanias with a whole new attitude! I've been seeing them every day my whole life and never thought anything about it. Suddenly I see one and think "that is really cool!" and I love it. Thanks for making my days more interesting! 😊👍

I’m a Norwegian with absolutely no knowledge of trucks, engines or anything, but I love these videoes, Learning a whole lot and so proud of our swedish brothers producing This amazing machinery!

Drivers keep their workshoe on the last step, not entering the cab with their workshoe. That's one way to keep it clean.

I'm from Brasil...we have Scanias here as well, great trucks. Maybe later, at night, show your audience the headlight on the top of the windshield, it really lights up mountains ahead of you , it makes night turn into day. Scanias are just on another level.

What a shame the USA have missed out on Scania trucks for years 🙄👍

Remember to put your shoes on the top step before closing the door. It's mandatory. Then you have your driver shoes (Swedish clogs) inside, or drive barefoot.

As someone who has had 2 389 peterbilts in Australia and now drive a R650 scania I would never go back the power tech and comfort is so much better.

@bruce the table is non Aluminum its Magnesium i know we manufacture them.

Bruce that button you didn't know what it was is simply weight transfer, over here if you're at traffic lights on a hill, we usually lift the axle before getting going, but weight transfer pulls weight off the tag, and puts it on the drive for traction, it then cancels the function at about 20mph 👍 that's simply what it is.

Hey Bruce the button on <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="639">10:39</a> is the Weight transfer button, we use it during the winter if you need more weight on the drive axel to have the grip you need to get up a hill or if you are stuck in at a loading bay and need to get going I hope Scania will start selling trucks in USA because they truly are the best trucks in the world

I might be just a guy in the UK, but I'm so happy for you to be having this rare opportunity to have access to something incredibly special. She is an absolute Beaut!

As a diesel mechanic for the last 50 years, I can tell you that individual cylinder heads are just the best thing on a truck or const. equipment. It was really bad when I did field service on construction equip. in the 70s, trying to shuffle a big cyl. head off to one side to replace a piston or using a long board to slide the head from the top of the engine into the back of the service truck, by yourself. That was one of the best parts of the Cummins "K" series engines, it had individual heads. The Cummins in line engines from before they dropped the H, NH, NT and NTC series were good because they had 3 heads on the inline engines, only the early "C" and "J" series had a single head. The Mack V8s were good because they had 4 heads. On the mechanical side, they can put more head bolts for better clamping of the cylinder heads on the head gaskets. You don't have to disconnect 3/4 of the fuel system and don't have to go around setting all the valves and injectors. There are many advantages to individual heads, I could go on and on.

I can see it now, Bruce Wilson VP of Promotion And Sales For SCANIA USA and owner of SCANIA of Tennessee and Florida☺🤘.

Please listen brother, I am so proud of you for helping Scania, I am concerned that the government won't allow them to be imported. Would kill the competition. Those trucks are just all around awesome. Thanks for all the work you putting in.

The thing on the roof is the radar for the alarm. If you look on the key there’s two options, one is to lock and disable the motion sensor for when you’re on a ferry or train (ferry icon on the key) the other disables the radar in the cab so you can lock it from the fob while inside and not set the alarm off. The control on the back of the cab on the curled cable is radio control, night heater control, night cool (parking aircon) and a few other features.

when this thing has arrived in the states you should show it and film it with the guys from semicasual and RLC motorsport plus gentry and sons trucking, would be so cool for them all to see and review the new scania. (since you showed them the older scania already). i really enjoyed that!

Coffee maker is pretty normal, but if you went for the high-roof variant, you could have gotten the Scania Microwave oven in the overhead passanger side 😎

Beautiful truck! I’ve been driving Scania’s for 20 years now, and it’s not until you see a video like this that you realise how amazing these vehicles are. We kind of take them for granted here in the UK and Europe. Looking forward to seeing you take it on the road in the USA. 🚚🚚

Make sure there is no coffee in coffee maker when you tilting the cab... 😂😂😂 And it's not complete without a microwave oven on top shelf... Hope you have fun and safe roads ahead mate.

I've worked for Scania and always appreciated their focus on quality, a good workplace and a good customer relationship. In my mind, these are the best trucks on the road. I've previously also worked as a truck driver and got to know differences in between truck brands first hand. Very exciting to see a US spec modern Scania being built and send over.

Bruce! Speak to nooteboom or faymonville, see if they can get you a trailer made and over to the USA! Full steering axle low loader or stepframe! That would blow a lot of folks minds seeing that back with you!

As a Finn my hat's off to our near and dear neighbor's truck industry. Getting to see a Scania on our roads is just an everyday occurrence, never really seen how they are made or what they look inside.

the reason to why the top step is so deep is for you to place your footwear there so you keep the cabin clean.

Here I am, an assistant nurse stumbeling over your channel and had to watch this from the beggining. I am not even a truck guy lol. I clicked on the sub button so fast and the notification bell. It will be so nice to see your future videos.

I’m so glad you are educating your U. S. Driver’s about the Scania trucks. I have only owned Peterbilts. But it’s clear that the Scania is far superior in every way. I really like the cab being on air bags and how driver friendly it is. Thank you for sharing. Driver Alex. SoCal.

I'm absolutely stunned how this truck turned out. It's nice to see that this beast is gonna be driving on US Roads .

Looking forward to hearing US truckers review and drive it!

You forgott to show night lock. On both doors crome piece next to red door lamp. It latches to rear grab handle and blocks the openning of the door. That is factory option.

Hope that you will bring Scania for USA 👍🏻

First of all I hope Scania will enter the US market! They should seriously consider to bring back the Longline factory cab option. It will be great for long haul, much easier to maneuver than a regular american truck and the trailer gap will be closed resulting in much better fuel economy. It’s not possible to close the trailer gap without a longer cabin. The 385 tire width if not as standard, it should be offered as an option in order to take advantage of the higher capacity of the EU front axle. I am patiently waiting for the results and for sure I will be one Scania V8 customer. Good luck!

You guys in the US are in for a real treat when this baby comes ashore. You will see what truckers in Europe and the UK have been driving for years.

I've driven a few trucks over the years here in the UK that my dad owned. As far back as an T plate (1963) Scammel Constructor. It felt more like a tractor than a truck. Lol. No air clutch, no power steering, crash box etc. You had to be a brute of a man to drive trucks back then. Then he bought a brand new F plate (1988) Iveco Turbo 330/30 and it was amazing! Easy to drive as any car. Of course even that is an antique compared to your shiny new R770! That thing is just stunning! Everything about it. I've never driven a Scania but I know they make some of the very best trucks in the world today! Enjoy it brother!

Am so glad you “got” a brand new man. This Will blow all us truckers mind

As owner operator for 13 years I can’t wait this truck to become available in the usa

We run a large fleet of Scania in Botswana. I love them and for our conditions i believe there are the best

It's a very cool truck that's packed with features. I'm a retired farmer and it's been said many times that the European tractors are 10-15 years ahead/ advanced of the American tractors, it appears the same can be said about heavy haul trucks as well.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="747">12:27</a> Bruce, yes, it also has an engine brake, if you look closely at the right hand lever, you will see two buttons with some green squares, those are the buttons through which you can activate/deactivate the automatic braking mode of the retarder and the engine brake. These two can work simultaneously in automatic mode when you press the brake pedal, or manually when you pull the lever down. <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1173">19:33</a> You also have sun visors in front, they are like those from the small car, and they also have a small extension, you have to fold it from the back.

Hi Bruce ! I dont know if You know it. But that silver thingy in the door that you can see at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1230">20:30</a> is a safty doorlock for when You sleep in the truck. Pull it out and it will lock in over the handelbar at the back and then it´s not possible to open the door from the outside. Just one of those things You never know if nobody tells You.. About the light in the bed. All Your inside light was turned off in this video. At <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="645">10:45</a> the first light button with the 0 and max is the main button for light, when it on 0 no lights in the cab works. Just set it to the middle position and then everything works. And finaly, <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="990">16:30</a> the "telephone" in the bed is where You control the parkingheater, parkingcooler, alarmclock, radio on/off ect. All the best from a Danish Trucker with a lot of years behind the wheel of a Scania 👍😉

It is also a parking heater control, the control that controls the radio, alarm, etc, on side of bed..and you have to turn it of, 5 min at least, in case you are going to refuel.. Also, there is an outside hiden door, just on the right, and next to driving door, that opens from inside..for gloves, tools, etc.. You MUST read manual !! Hope this was like first impressions video, but you must read or learn all.. You could had the extra bed...

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="639">10:39</a> This button raises the rear axle, but you set the height of the rear axle manually. This is very important for drivers in Scandinavia, because of the frost and ice on the asphalt. The 5th wheel is moved above the drive axle, so that the semi-trailer presses exactly on the drive wheel, and there is no slippage when climbing uphill (or other road situations). The button on the left does not lift the axle if there is a lot of weight on the rear axles, but this button will lift it. And if I remember correctly, from the road position to the highest, you need to hold the button for 60 seconds

The longline bullnose scanias will go down VERY well in the states. It’s the closest thing we have to your peterbuilts, but with all the quality of scania.

You got yourself a thing of beauty here. I don't even drive a car and got excited for you. It's like a plane or something, the amount of tech it's packing.

Bruce just want to point out a little cubby hole most drivers don’t realise exists 😂 As you are sat in drivers seat, beside your right leg at lower part of the dash is a cylindrical cubby hole for either a thermos flask or a large bottle of soda. I find it really useful 😂 before you leave have one of the guys go through all the trucks features , you came across as flying on the seat of your pants with knowledge 😂😂

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="640">10:40</a>, that button with the arrow is for transferring weight from the tag axle to the 1st drive axle. You can hold it down and it will start transferring weight until you release the button or it will completely lift the tag axle if you hold it long enough. edit: spelling

Bro, I didn't know you were about to hit 1 million subs. CONGRATS 💯

This thing is so much better for trucking than a Pete! You can’t even deny it! So well thought out! And safer for new drivers!

Shoes inside the cabin???? Outdoor shoes should be left outside on the top step

I’m retired now, but I love the AC without running an APU. I would buy a pickup from these folks. Excellent!

These trucks should be introduced into the RV industry as fifth wheel campers and also as class B+ super

Really curious what USA truckers will say about these awesome trucks! I've added bellow some of the buttons and what they do. Can the truck also be optioned with heated and cooled seats? I would think so this being a V8 <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="530">8:50</a> - fog lights are on the left the ones with the light beams cut, the controls are just for the headlight so you don't blind other drivers in various situations where the truck is inclined, it should also have autoleveling as mandated by law <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="639">10:39</a> - axle with arrow over to another one -> load transfer <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="647">10:47</a> - mute for the blindspot monitoring system, if you change lanes onto someone it will make a noise - mandated by law i think <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="653">10:53</a> - AEB system - advanced emergency braking system automatically brakes for you in case of an emergency - i think mandated by EU law <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="734">12:14</a> - face with wifi - voice commands for entertainment/phone/gps/etc. <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="990">16:30</a> - the remote is for creature comforts so you don't have to get up, radio/source/volume as well as parking AC/Heating controlls, european trucks have engine off Heating/AC <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1054">17:34</a> - the switch is on the panel, top row, right most one i think? <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1092">18:12</a> - ultrasonic motion sensors, security feature <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1238">20:38</a> - with a bottle opener, you do have a fridge, would be a shame not be able to crack a cold one after work

remember 2 things,its got double glazing on side windows,also security locks on the doors,sit in the seat, close the the door,notice a chrome latch towards the rear of the door,pull that out and it clips around the interior grab handle..

Finally,an American sees the quality of Scania and gives it a chance to appear in America.I've been fallowing your channel for a long time,but when you started the scania wow here's the real man.I'm so glad that you became Scania's man for America.I drove in America but I'm back in Serbia.I wish you oll the best,and don't forget SCANIA IS THE QUEEN OF THE ROADS.BILLY

This would make an awesome log truck in Ontario Canada. Our job sites are getting tighter. This thing has all the amenities for staying in the truck all week and small enough for getting around easy.

As a proud Swede with 10 years of experience driving trucks, I have to say that for me, Scania outshines even Volvo. My colleagues and I often joke that when you see different truck brands on the parking lot, there’s only one that’s a real truck, and that’s Scania. If I were to rank the top three brands, it would be Scania, Volvo, and DAF. There’s one brand I didn’t mention that I wouldn’t set foot in. It’s exciting, though, to see North America finally getting a real truck on your roads!

I have driven Scania's for over 30 years and i love em, you have a lovely truck there and am quite envious. Hope it meets your needs, i am sure it will exceed your expectations.

I'm not a cabover fan, but that truck is awesome, the features and quality are definitely next level, so far above what we get in the US and years ahead in the technology. Getting to see it built at the factory is a once in a lifetime thing, I'm totally jealous, lol!!

You did forgot to show those side storage compartmets when you showed how much storage there is.

This 2024 model R 770 is miles ahead of what Scania were producing 20 years ago with the L series models which were a great truck then. The new R 770 with all its high tech bells and whistles features is light years on from the trucks they built 40 years ago. There is just no comparison with 40 years ago and how the brand has evolved from then to now in design, styling and power outputs. Drivers now have every extra they could ever ask for in driving a truck. If I was 40 years younger then I would be jumping at the chance to get on the road to drive one of these beautiful trucks for a living, but sadly I've had to retire from driving now for health reasons. You've done a great review and excellent job of promoting this fabulous truck and all its special build features.

I hope Scania is gonna start selling Truck in the US i’ve been in Sweden factory or Scania and I enjoy a lot. It’s a Truck made for the Driver. It’s a big difference between US trucks.

The light knob on your key is for testing your lights. Push it and the parking lights turn on. And nekst push turn signals, break and so on. Nice to check your lights that way when walking around your rig.

like #214. Bruces Scania [MAGNUS] rear power divider drive-lift-axle is so COOL. Definitely on the long haul, running light or empty, lifting the axle, improves mileage over thousands of miles. Every dollar counts. Ive seen people "scab" on a second rear axle and...yuk

Quality through and through! Excellent coverage of the build…..

American truck builders wont be happy if they go on sale in the US they are way more advanced trucks

Hoping to see more and more of these in the USA! Great truck and the workmanship is beyond anything US built. Amazing truck!

As someone who did TOMY runs for Amazon in a Kenworth truck, I absolutely love the SCANIA trucks. They look amazing. They are specc'd nicely. I'm really curious to see how the truck does in the mountains of CO and WV.

8 weeks is way to long to wait :) Norwegian Truck driver from 1994-2017. mostly driven Scania but also some Mercedes, Iveco, Volvo and Daf :) Scania always my favorit

It seems it have also the nightlock system on the doors. That prevents that they can not break in your cab while you are sleeping.

I would LOVE to see another Trucking Company on the road here in the U.S. I love cab overs, I wish they didn't stop making em. We could really use these. BUT by all means DO NOT MAKE THEM HERE, cause as you know we can make trucks here, just not to keen on putting LOVE and CARE into doing so, doing it like Scania does. Thank you Bruce for what you do! God Bless You and Scania!

I have had a few swedish designed machinery.... and got to love that air hoses and cables are marked with part number and where they belong... Seen a machine from the UK where the whole "cable tangle" was yellow cables... The mechanic had a quite headache before he had fixed that mess up, when the whole thing ripped apart.

Scania always made a quality product. My favourite was the 143 centurions,just a different class.

That bought of your 144 Scania "Vermolen" really brought a lot to you and USA 😂 (also for Scania 😂) Love to see you hauling a heavy load thru the rocky mountains with you Scania and see the faces of those other truckers hauling loads and being flown by uphill by a Scania without any fuss😂

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="640">10:40</a> that button transfer weight to the drive axel for more traction really handy if its snow on grund and you can do it while driving

I’m not a trucker but I love big trucks and big power so being from U.S. this would be my dream truck. It’s just all the trucks in U.S. are pretty basic and similar. Definitely no where near this quality.. Scania and there long nose trucks would take over USA if they put a factory over here in my opinion..

That controler on <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="994">16:34</a> is for light, radio and heating in cabin, webasto system, at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1078">17:58</a> that is for belt system thats holding second bed you can install it instead of storage, also second curtain you can add is for second bed. <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1119">18:39</a> empty space is for TAHO system for drivers. Shoud have on front also sun blinds, manual or on the button. Stationary climate is good for max 11h, after that it will shut down becouse of the truck battery. Nice job on covering this truck, i really like it.

I am really happy that you have come this far. When you started out with your used Scanias and got to know Ville at Ylivoimala and from there went to Sweden to visit the factory for the first time i had a feeling that would'nt it be great if you could get a new Scania at a spec that you can show to US truckers. I guess i was not alone in that thought and i am super excited that Scania has decided to give you the chance to show what European trucks are capable of and what makes them so special. I see Scania trucks everyday when i am out and about and i have learned more about the models and variants, stuff that i never had a clue about before. I am fascinated by the fact that the 770 models are quite common and not just something that exists in the lineup from Scania to cater to a small audience. But here most are the hi-cab version. Anyway, i am looking forward to see you when you get it delievered to the US in a while. Thanks for all the great narration you do in your videos. One can really tell that you are very excited about these trucks and the technology that puts them into a class of their own. Cheers from Småland/Sweden!

She's a beauty, nice to see you are going to be Scania's agent, I think once the USA Trucking Company's see the build quality and power these trucks have, not to mention how reliable they are, Scania is going to take off pretty quick big style, they already know about Volvo's and how good and reliable they are, well here's another Swedish truck some think are even better.

You should really get a good euro trailer for this truck! I would reccomend Ekeri or Limetec for reefer/box with side doors and maybe a Broshuis flatbed

I was driving Scania's 30 plus years ago, they were brilliant lorries then look like they've built on that. Re painting over stuff, all that does is reduce the life of pipes and cables, which is probably why they paint over them. Really like your enthusiasm, it will be interesting to see what truckers in the US think?.

That remote above the bed. You should be able to use it to control webasto, so if youre feeling cold or hot at night, you dont need to leave the bed. Also you should be able to set alarms etc on it

This Scania is amazing. To get it completed, you definitely need a Euro trailer from Ekeri. Thanks for these great videos. I'm waiting for the US videos now👍

The button you Thought was to engage the rear drive axle is the full locker, tha axle Will engage automatic when you lower it. Have the same setup on my truck, wonderful when driving on bad and slippery roads in the norwegian mountains.. 😁 The button with the boogie and the arrowes are to move weight from the rear to the front drive If you Need to, like when you are pulling a light load and Want to take of on a slippery road.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="845">14:05</a> the refrigerator turns itself off to save the battery. If you turn off the ignition, the refrigerator’s display shows the estimated time remaining before it turns off. The system always ensures that you have enough power to start the engine.

Honestly I would LOVE to see Scania make a move into the US Market, The quality of current American trucks are straight ASS. I drive a 2025 Kenworth T680, in the first 30,000 miles the Carrier Bearing and Front U-Joints failed while driving down the road, took a week to fix, The turbo went out ($14,500 to replace!!!!!!). I am so glad I work for a company who has to pay to fix this hunk of shit, but man I would absolutely love to drive one of the Scanias over here! I only drive 5 days out at a time so the smaller sleeper is fine with me!

So I may have missed this, but I hope you're getting some lights and a deer catcher installed, but seeing as the deck plates aren't there yet I assume that still has to be installed. Also puhlease say it's still going for paint to get the Scania logo on the back of the cab. You can't have a Scania show truck without having the giant griffon V8 logo on the back of the cab. Well you could, but it'd be sacrilege.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="639">10:39</a> this should be a button you can use to lift the lift axle for a short time (even when fully loaded) to get more traction for driving off in slippery conditions.

I would love to drive a Scania in USA. Please consider coming to the U.S. market. Your engineering and build quality is second to none.

You have ”blinders” or what you called it under the front windshield 😊 you can fold them down twice to block that low sun at sunset.

The quality in the fit and finish on this truck is outstanding.

Hi Bruce, the other button you didn't know is the hill hold button. It prevents rolling backwards when you pull up after a full stop on a hill. And a small tip about the shoes on the doorstep. Store them somewhere inside during nasty wheather. Otherwise they Will be soaking wet

Looks very nice, although i would strongly recommend some Scania Gripen decals on the sides, and the front having the piping protetion with some extra lights etc.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1005">16:45</a>.... Bruce.... you can control stationary heating a.k.a. Webasto using that remote. This is also something not popular in US I heard.

I'm not a driver but I do have an F endorsement and retired firefighter. The Scania is a beautiful truck, much thought and engineering and built with pride. Much respect to the company and workers!

Sweet ride. I think you'll need to spend a few hours with the owner's manual. 😊 Since you're in the neighborhood, can you talk Citroen into sending a C5 Aircross to me in the USA.

About time there is a COE available in America again. Can't wait to buy one.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1097">18:17</a> Thats the sensors for your alarmsystem. They detect movement.

Hey everyone I’m an x hgv mechanic in the uk. You chose one of the best trucks to have & in the USA it will be nice to see how it goes Alythe best.
