    Scania is also part of VW as is international trucks now. Look up what all VW owns and makes. Me I have had VW’s for the last 45 years. Family back to the fifties.
    Can’t wait for Scania to implement some of the changes into intertrashinol trucks. the Scania longline truck would be nice.
    the air ride on the Scania and European trucks are so much better. Think of the old Ford 9000 cab over. But better designed.

    Maybe it's just the angle of the pictures but they look taller than 13' 6" especially with the cargo rack and rotating lights on the white one.

    The new S13 engine that’s replacing the A26 only uses EGR on startup I guess. They are light years ahead of the US in diesel technology. Hopefully it doesn’t throw rods like the A26 did.

    got this off their website.

    2700 ft-lbs is insane.


    Do they use DEF ?
