God I Love This Trucks

[@gregw9289]

I watched your video and I work for Scania in Melbourne Australia. The new gen trucks are selling real well here and most people driving them love em'. The V8s are awesome!! Take care and safe driving all you truckers over there !!!

[@marian6593]

Yep, that's the Swedes for you. Comfort, safety and easy driving (although I've only experienced their cars). My absolute favourite Scania is the T cab. I still remember the first time I saw one and it was definitely love at first sight. Hopefully some of the Scania advertising team will pick up this video; it'd be a brilliant testament to their trucks. Hope you get more Scanias to drive. 🚛 😉

I feel the same m8 they're the Best, the feeling scania gives me I forget sometimes I'm driving a truck, such a good feeling it makes me enjoy driving 👍🚚🚛

[@steveamurray59]

Sounds like a winner.

[@Beegaming]

As an experienced Euro Truck Simulator driver I can agree with you on the Scanias

[@mishcaemil]

Hello mate. Thanks for a new vlog. I can see why Scania is a good truck. The amount of different tests and how they do test drives across Sweden and also in different countries in Europe before new trucks or even engines are out for sale. Then they also use to do extensive research with drivers about how they would like to change details and placement of buttons and switches. I do remember, when working at the plant I Sődertälje building the trucks, how the bosses at the assembly line was checking the quality of the work that was done at each station before the truck went on to the next crew on the line. Quality checks all over. I liked working at the plant because the care they took of the employees. Offering education for more complicated work stations, rental apartments that the workers could rent for a really good price. Healthcare at the plant and so on. It is like a small town in the town. When working there you feel taken care of by the company. So there is many things that makes Scania a super truck. At least for me. But as I have said before. I am a little bit old school so I prefer a older Scania. But I agree that the new ones are very nice to drive. Anyway, enough from me for now. Take care and drive safe.

[@Raul689]

Thanks for sharing your experience. They are brilliantly built with a lot of quality. You know the saying you get what you pay. And nice to hear they take care of the employees aswell. Well done 👍

[@rdtruckinguk8532]

My first Scania drive was a 52 plate rigid, (p cab... I think...?), manual gearbox 4 over 4, absolute headache to drive to begin with, as through no fault of my own, but everything I had driven so far was an automatic. But as the day went on, completely fell in love with it, great truck. My dad used to drive a 82m back in the late 80's early 90's, and was a lovely truck, so comfortable for the time.

[@LA-fr7fx]

Thank you 👍

[@tonydavies9718]

Raul youve saved the day with the video im fed up hearing about the queen already and it's only day 1👍

[@marian6593]

I'm sharing your pain,Tony. Pathetic, isn't it???🙄😥😉

[@petersmithyt9091]

Have to say I love a Scania. They inspire confidence and handle great. Cabs are just the right dimensions, power delivery is great and the traction I find is always superior. They are quality and I personally don't think anything tops them.

[@ilovemultipacks]

Drove a R450 around wales and fell in love with it , never been in one since :(

[@iansmalley9032]

Good to hear you again always enjoy your vlogs.

[@chrisandrews7518]

I have a 410 tipper. 16 plate. It when in for its MOT so they gave me 71 plate MAN. I was begging for my scania back. Mine has the Scania premium audio with full apple car play. Yeah lovely place to be I agree.

[@leeroy5065]

Hi Raul, I cannot wait until I get behind one of these monsters, sexy Scania 👏👏🚚🚚

[@stevenkerry3101]

i take it you like Scanias then they are even good to work on too nice to see you back mate hope your all keeping well hope the motor home is going ok .

[@Raul689]

Thanks pal. Yeah build is going slow but I'm getting there 👍

[@stevewatson2288]

Scania’s are a class truck the best of the best 👍🏼

[@RichPAFC1987]

DAF have made an improvement with their current line up, such as the XG+, which power aside is probally the best Trampers truck on the market, but has a price tag to match, no longer the Gaffers choice, which is in the hands of MAN, Merc and Iveco now. It doesn't beat the Scania for Trunking though.

[@Raul689]

You are right, and the quality of the new DAF is impressive. Been in one but did not drove it

[@chrisjenkins1]

I thought about getting in one. Someone who was in one said they wanted to change. Cos it has 2 small fuel tanks on both sides. Rather than one bigger one on one side. So was fuelling from 2 pumps

[@Raul689]

Yes that is an inconvenience

[@tedivuki69]

last month I was going to Austria with my unlce he works in a company called MELD its somewere close to Slovenija🇸🇮 that where I live what I wana say is that I saw a yellow truck parked there with the trailer and it was soo awesome to look at it was a SCANIA truck😂 so I take the picture of the truck and I made it in ETS2 exactly like it looks in realife and I am driving that SCANIA truck I made from realife in a ETS2 with other players in multiplayer thats sooo awesomeee😂

[@Raul689]

Nice! 😁

[@tedivuki69]

@@Raul689 I didn't saw the cabin of that SCANIA truck but in game and in your videos I see its perfect like u sad👌😂

[@Brickhazard]

Whenever I get the keys to a Scania I know I am going to London as some sort of peace deal. If it is anywhere else you get given a DAF. Haha.

[@Dimitsou12]

grate video like always

[@jonathanrabbitt]

I used to drive a P94D. Everything about it was tired or ropey, but it is still the benchmark. Now I'm in a DAF CF 530. The steering wheel rim is too thick and awkward; and when I'm not fighting the Traxon gearbox shift programming, I'm fighting the climate control automation. Aside from that, it's ok.

[@Raul689]

Yes cf steering is awkward

[@DaveG7920]

I drove a Scania for 6 years, no idea why I liked it so much, I just, did, similar reliability to the Volvo's we had but just felt better to drive.

[@Raul689]

Yeah Volvos are great too but i still prefer the king 😁

[@TheCLC1991]

Hi Raul thank you for your videos, they have inspired me to get looking into getting my trucking license. Can I ask whilst your being unloaded if your not doing this yourself are you still getting paid?

[@Raul689]

Good to hear that pal. Yes you are still getting paid even if you just sit on the bay. Good luck 👍

[@adrianfoy6790]

Raul Question Have you noticed a drop in your salary since there's a lot more drivers coming into the trade ! Cheers Adrian

[@Raul689]

Not really mate. At the company i work now the pay is better than last year. And the agencies are bombarding me with jobs over £17ph

[@MrSuper144]

12 years on scanias fleet trucks running 24 7 all different drivers broke down twice. Back in the day i drove merc actros and axors broke down so many times it was like a bad joke. Funny enough the Renaults always made it home volvos were a bit crap when heavy at the front. Had a new iveco demonstrator recently s way looks like a scania crap brakes diff lock switch where the headlight switch should be wouldnt move in 1 inch of snow with the lift axle up and the headlights on sorry diff lock. Got an ex ws r450 tag now and so far its been a great truck keeps going when others get stuck 100 percent reliable so far buy once cry once get a scania.

You get what you pay i guess 😁

DAF does have best interior but scania and volvo got the power

[@ЛиверПеревоз]

Hello fellow comrade. Drove Scania since.... now i apply for a job in Sweden and when employer rung me, after Hello i had second question: Hope You got Scanias in fleet for me??? No buzzing DAFs or plastic MANs or worse Ivecos. If Scania- where to sign?!

[@maycogoriding2153]

I am just curious sir Raul,why you bring different trucks is that a company rules,or u can change it if you want..

[@Raul689]

Good question, but i really don't know why they have different brands. I guess they just bought them randomly

[@vrsmartin2981]

The one type of unit I've not driven. I quite like merc actros mirrorless But scania are supposed to be the 👌

[@vrsmartin2981]

Oh and can't stand DAF. Volvo are OK but the seats are shit

[@4RMS7TRONG]

I drove a Rigid one for the weekend a few weeks back. Its trucking perfection. We have guys that don't like it because its "too new" and has too many buttons and settings for them 🤣 but they're 60+ years old and struggle to use a mobile phone so it's understandable.

Hi Raul fan of your vids... Any advice to someone like me who is having trouble funding my hgv licence myself, I have gone the extra mile and reached out to a lot of companies asking if they put me through it am happy to stay with them for a couple of years as I understand it's expensive not only for myself but for a business as well.. had a couple of them reach out to me but nothing as really materialised from it had a lot of let downs... Any advice am up in Manchester area

If it wasn't for the Swedes in the late 60's/70's we would still be driving Leylands.Albions.GUY's.Dodge's.Maudsley.ERF.Foden's and a whole mixture of Ancient antiquated things that had all the comfort of a poxy deckchair sat on the beach in middle of winter in a howling gale! with plain glass for windows!. mind had power Steering!

Can you tell me how much is the fuel consumption of these truck at 44tons....many claims that Scania always get good consumption compare to volvo. In Malaysia they have a image where Scania is regarded as abit less robust and only suitable for light works compared to Volvo.

[@Raul689]

I can't tell you, as this truck does different routes with different loads and sometimes runs empty for 400km per day. It's hard to get an estimate

[@aldworth33]

I work for a scania dealer and honestly they are awful to work on, yes they are nice to drive but literally I have worked on every type of truck and they are by far the worst to fix

Surprised to hear that pal

Another good and funny vlog mate …..lose a sock you rotten git …take care bud

Scania and Volvo are the ducks nuts in truck comfort , better than Mercedes , MAN and DAF

The Worst though are the American Trucks , they might look good , but they are so uncomfortable

Dont like scanias cuz sit too low pefer daf/merc height mirrors wrong way round deal breaker for me but thequality is the best

[@Raul689]

I feel to tall for the merc

[@markcoe69]

I completely agree with you on this one!! At my work we have Mercedes Actros 2545, Volvo FH460 and Scania R450. Without doubt I would pick the Scania over them all! It is absolutely superb. The 2019 Mercedes is noisy and the gearbox is absolutely shocking! The 2020 Volvo is very good, lots of low down torque, very quiet and smooth but it’s audio system really lets it down. A little more than normal voice levels and the speakers start distorting, no DAB and only one BT device. There’s a few other little niggles too. But, the Scania is so good, I would actually use one as my personal vehicle if I could. The stereo is awesome with loads of volume, brilliant bass and you can connect 2 Bluetooth devices at once to it so you can have the works phone plus your personal phone, it has apple car play, DAB, plus many other things that the others don’t have. All our lorries are 2018 or newer but the Scania has so much more equipment in it than the others. Every time I get in a Scania, I’m just happy. I would like to see the new Scania coming out 2023 (so I’m told) but for now I’m very happy in the 2018>

[@Raul689]

You are right, when you are in the Scania it's just like your in your regular car
