Why do so many Americans hate European trucks?

i am afraid i cant answer ,you should ask the owner about electric system ,but it looks to me its an EU specification truck imported in some dubious ways to NA
here is another one,this videos(and 143e) was made at 2009 East Coast Truckin' Nationals in Petersburg, VirginiA so its definitely NA

113e400 with turbocompound!

 

Here is the electric circuit 24 volts, and what i have read in america it's 12 volts.
And that dump truck has no standard scania axles.


I think the longline model will be good enough for the american market.
1:24 scale model.

 

i lying on the bed and saw video on mobile phone and turn pc on to write this

on which axle do you mean? rear?
scania E(extra heavy duty) should have "AP"axles(rbp830+rp830) or on english hub reduction even most H have them

those on this scania from video are very weak for our operation conditions and i could break them in one week of hard usage (rb652+r653)

also porgugal flag on it same as on trma scania

btw in US only 340 and 360 were available i dont know is this version of 113 340 ( both on 112 and 113) or is this dsc1101 with 333hp by DIN or 340hp by ISO

 

Yes i mean that boogie axles. And maby the rear but a'm not sure about that.

 

so maybe even Telmo Abreu ( you also can see his name on this tipper scania at back)

buy used trucks from europe and fit parts in to us trucks

here you can see his webpage search in every category you could see some scanias and in warehouse some parts

http://www.abreutruckservices.com/

as much i know he is one of person who still hold scania present in US

i am in contact with person who owned last us scania and he sold it to Telmo Abreu because he knew that truck will be renewed and sold again

but as much i know scania us did not offer grs900 gearbox with 14speeds and also only leaf suspension so no parabolic as most of 3series have here

too bad you did not offer serious product for us at least same as eu

 

here 12-24V converters for US trucks are available. We use them if we tow EBS trailer with US truck. So I installed this converter in my truck too.

Last year I had the real fun. There was US dump trailer operated with Volvo VNL (12V) and when they got some problems with Volvo they used MAZ truck to tow trailer home.... as result, all bulbs are... #####!!!! and ABS unit (Wabco VCS-II, 12V) is damaged with overvoltage, I had to fix it!

 

The only problem is that the profits of your purchase are still sent out of country. If you buy a ford or chevy made in mexico, the american company profits.

 

What's better for the USA economy? If you are a proud american, would you rather know your profits are staying in america, giving them to ford, chevy, dodge, whether its made in china or mexico, whenever the company makes a sale, its the american company that profits. If you buy a honda, nissan, toyota, i don't care where its MADE, those are asian companys and they are profiting, your dollar is going to JAPAN.

 

really this is silly thing like buyer's patriotism.....

becouse all in out economy is mixed, no 100% American goods, no 100% European goods, to many things in them are from China and Japan....!!!!

 

that may be the case, but the posters point was the PROFIT from the company stays onshore..
