    That was the pregame before the super bowl that I had to watch at the mcdonalds up the road. The next day I got stuck twice in the snow. Once on the job site and again on a public highway heading to my reload from hell. I had both lanes blocked on a hill curving right. tandems kept sliding towards the ditch. salt truck came by and dumped salt for me to shovel by hand to eventually crawl out of there. Fun day pulling a 48' sled.

    Well worth the effort. Owned the truck since new, has 1.4 million miles on it. See it on a Cat Scale collector card, 12th edition.

    The same as my old r620 except the steering wheel is on the wrong side lol, I miss it alot!

    Automatic climate control??? Are you joking? This kenworth has a tap under the hood to turn on and off the aircon!

    i like the newer Scania dashs, just a little nicer!

    You mean on the right side? You guys on that island have some weird ideas to drive on the wrong side of the road is a good thing... :)

    Yeah noticed it's all about looks over there. Well I keep the full air climate controlled double glazed cab :) if only the buttons could have a more well oiled felling in them I would be pleased.

    You mean this, yeah it's okay except they moved the tag buttons to the wrong side. Sent in a complaint and amazingly I got a replay from the head designer.

    hahaha yeah we are known to do things backwards alright!

    Yup but I don't think I'd have that colour inside, I'd love the black amber edition : http://www.scanianewsroom.com/files/2011/01/10884-044.jpg

    Really?? He got back to you? I'd love to know what he said, probably some bs I'd say.

    My view

    [​IMG]


    I try to keep this truck as clean as I can.. With no cab filters in these and the dusty conditions I am in it's hard to keep the dark away lol.. Plus the mudding fields we deliver material too it hard to keep the floor clean.. I armour-all the truck everyone once in a while... For the working conditions I am in I would say that it's pretty #### clean :)
