POV Driving Scania R650 V8 XT - Norway Mountain Roads

[@desitruckwala4502]

That V8 sound kills !!! Agrrrr!

[@haroldryan1749]

Absolutely love the one I drive. It’s set up as a triple Roadtrain in Western Australia and pulls 300mt no problems

Hey, great to have you over here and had you like the content 👍

[@Belkin_Bella]

KevTee Yes, I liked it, I myself shoot, but I live in cold Siberia

[@wetlettuce4768]

Now you need to convince your boss you need one of these

[@christopherfarmer5626]

Great vlog Kev thanks for sharing your experience in Norway some great scenery keep up the good work and be safe mate

[@alansimpson8735]

Hi Kev hope you and your two wonderful ladys in your life are all well another great video i really enjoyed watching this just like i do with all your videos keep up with the great work that you do and keep them great videos coming take care drive carefully like you always do and stay safe my friend

[@elizabethtaylor9321]

Feels funny going round a roundabout the other way for the first time , it’s horses for courses Kev , if you had bigger engine in your Volvo you’d be just as happy , get Volvo to give you the same as this , that’ll change your mind , C Taylor .

[@KevTee]

Yes I'm sure your right, all the other manufacturers trucks I drive are new high spec trucks, bit unfair to compare my old base spec Volvo 😂

[@RealCadde]

At the end of the day, Volvo or Scania doesn't matter. They are both good and bad at their own things.

[@elizabethtaylor9321]

Cadde Aye , but the Volvo won’t do your back in !

[@Axo_Gaming]

Very nice video Kev, proper professional shots and very informative!

[@christianasiimwe3951]

Great video kev, love the sound of that V8 . Greetings from Uganda 👍

[@stugill4513]

brilliant kev thanks im glad you asked about the clutch on demand idea from wot i belive it seems a good compromise between auto and manual , i carnt find a vid or anythiong explaining it anywhere so thanks

[@andrewcassidy7795]

That's a nice looking truck mate looked good to drive you should have kept on driving n brought that truck home lol 😂.Enjoyed the video mate look forward to the next one. Keep safe . 👍

[@KevTee]

Thanks mate, it was a lovely bit of kit to drive and if I didn't have a Scania man sat next to me I probably would of kept driving 😂

[@andrewcassidy7795]

loving these pov vids man

[@MrMarkbrown218]

Anyone els laughing because the guy is blocking the sun from his eyes when he has perfectly good sunglasses on his head? 🤣

[@turemickelsson480]

I agree, much better feeling for the road in the Scania. Volvo electric hydraulic feels like a computer game. Do not like it on narrow roads. Scania is the Porsche of trucks. I want to try out a Peterbilt some day though. I think the long wheel bases makes American trucks handle very well.

[@stuinNorway]

What he said about the weight limit and getting permits for larger loads, you don't want to forget the permit.... Even a mobile crane needs the permits so when they stopped one in a control one weekend (over-size loads are not allowed weekend without extra special permits, as everyone is off to their cottages in the mountains/by the coast) they were fines 247,000 kroner (21,000 GBP at today's rates) for it, and had to park until Monday. Hope you enjoyed your visit to Norway, even if you didn't see a real winter... From a Scotsman living over here..

[@KevTee]

Wow yeah that's a pretty steep fine 😳 Loved it over there, I really like all the Scandinavian countries. Would of been great to get to see a proper winter weather 👌

[@stuinNorway]

@@KevTee You DO NOT want a speed ticket here either ;)

[@trucktalkvideosandy8185]

Great video Kev better then the other KZbinrs about the XT i have one in mind how did it work with the tacograph that day ?..

[@bentleymtafu23]

Bout time, some Kevtee. He's right, clutch...not sure we need it. Awesome views! Lol, feels like the 460 empty...440 is bit worse. The V8s the best! Would love to run more. Cheers Kev!

[@jacklee8168]

This is great Kev watching it cuddle up to my son Jacob on corner sofa he's just asking me why you in passenger seat driving just explain it to him

[@michaelthomas3646]

I suppose the difference driving a 650 compared to your Volvo FH 440, would be like my grandfather driving the Volvo F86 to the Volvo FH, apart from the lack of a gearstick, and a lever for high and low range on the dash!! god miss those days, but don't miss the Bath crawl at something like 10 mph up hill on the M4 when fully freighted, and hearing the engine scream!!

[@michaelthomas3646]

driving view was all good, until the sunlight through the cab, and you having to put the sun visor down, I bet #MoreScott, and Jenko are really envious of you and #LessLuke now!! lol

[@thomas2972]

Another great video, now you need to sweet talk your boss into getting you one!

[@KevTee]

Haha not a hope, I'm more likely to get an old gen 450 after looking at the latest fuel figures 😞

[@thomas2972]

@@KevTee never mind, Scania is always the best

[@rossmcgarrie9787]

You know how much I love Volvos but the Scanias have that slightly better quality it looks like. I was a labourer at Stagecoach Fife & spent most of my time working on Volvos mainly the B10M PS Buses & Plaxton Premier coaches & they were brilliant to work on. & PS Buses by Alexander can take off like shit of a shovel as they were quick really quick Kevtee. Another fantastic video keep them coming Pal.

[@nygellabelle2193]

That truck climbs this hill for at about 2kms with 15+ tonnes of macadams without any single effort, I only heard 2 down shifts only , if I'm not wrong! Anyway only wanted to know what is the price of It?? Thanks for this video👍

[@kiriath]

Question from a non-truck driver; you said it was loaded with 50t? Aint the truck and trailer like 20t total, so total weigth would be 70t? Is that legal to have on public roads in Norway?

[@arnebroeckeart6404]

What truckbrand you drive? Kev: yeah yeah yes yeah yeah yeah yeah yes yeah yeah. 😅😂. In 7 minutes, you 2 said over 70 times yeah😂.

[@turemickelsson480]

Nice! How does left hand driving feel for you?

[@RT-td1pv]

Enjoying the content🍻🚛💨

[@LocalmotionSpain]

Another good video - good to hear the thoughts of your co-pilot too. I was lucky to be able to train in a scania and it it my aim one day to have one myself... until then I have to settle for my old reliable Iveco (owner driver with low budget) 🤪

[@Beastlysimmer_uk]

I've hern looking foward to this video, How's your day been?

[@disabilityvandriverNI]

Kevtee the man who went our om your test drive was very talkable but the one out with luke he was not taking to him I dont no if it was luke that was not trying to interact with him but u had the better one

[@18robsmith]

Release all 650, plus the V8 burble :-)

[@cookingwithwebby]

Hay kev just wondering how old u was when u started driving hgv . As am 42 and really thinking of doing my hgv tests and getting on the road

[@KevTee]

I was 36 mate, I've known drivers to start in these fifties mate so you've got plenty of life left in you yet mate 👍

[@chidori922]

Take a shot everytime he says yeah

[@namtruckspottersinc7898]

its really hard to go back to the 460 rn

[@Mr60059]

Hi Kev , Really great singing from the V8 !!! ( very nicccceeee ) and really cracking scenery A lot different from the Volvo . All is left is for you to convince your Boss ( Ha Ha )

[@KevTee]

Cheers mate, it was a spectacular trip. Regarding me ever getting one, I think the phrase I'm looking for contains the words blood and stone 😂😂

[@Mr60059]

@@KevTee Yeap I know that Phrase tooo Well !!

[@omfghai2u]

Not much of a mountain road. You should go and have fun in western and northern norway some time :)

[@KevTee]

We were in the mountains but it was a very beginner circuit. I would love to do some proper Scandinavian driving 👌

[@RealCadde]

@@KevTee Yeah but if they are going to showcase their trucks abilities they really should have a better "track". The one in Södertälje, Sweden is made for the purpose giving drivers all kinds of challenges and true to life "roads".

[@Tomcroese]

I like the Scanias to, but i drive Volvo buss for 2 years and i like it, it works, and not ofen somthing wrong.

[@zstation64]

Needs straight pipes

[@tobbzor]

The two things i really dosent like about my nextgen is first the sunvisor volvos electric is mutch better. And second the door handle to close the door is in knee hight. so ju have a hard plastic handle right against your knee al day.

Stick with ur Volvo
