Scania 4-series Truck of the Year 1996 with Jeremy Clarkson

I love how Scania 4 series from 1996 still more modern looking than a 2024 Peterbilt 389

[@gibattiston]

389 is meant to be classic and not to be modern, you have to compare it with Peterbilt 387

[@Irontree85]

All Peterbilts are beautiful machines made for real truck drivers. Double shifting worse nightmare for European truck drivers. Scania is just Scania.

[@alpzerlaken]

Don’t get me wrong I love Peterbilt but having wide choices of truck like in Australia (Scania, Peterbilt, Isuzu, Foton, and maybe Kamaz?) would have been awesome

[@gibattiston]

@@Irontree85 Just accept that American trucks are outdated with unsynchronized transmissions that are a thing of the 1930s. And European engines are dominating the American market.

[@jeroenknot6796]

​@topfuelbike9556 I rather have a Eaton 13 speed than the automatic 12speed they fit standard (in my case in a volvo fh4) For the rest..I wouldnt run a Pete or a K-Whopper on these European roads, infrastructure is not made for these kind of wheelbase,not even when you pull a(for us measurements small) 45ft curtainside three axle Trailer. By the way, since Peterbilt &Kenworth are owned By Paccar they show quite some similarities with there Dutch sister DAF.

[@CharlieMcCahill4600]

Still a good lorry to this day

nah, not compared to what we have today

[@valtterifani]

Best truck I've ever driven. Even the current new ones are not as good. On the other hand, I represent the old school.

[@Zirion123]

Please.. compared to the next gen the 4 series is a rattle box and the heater is the worst in the business getting destroyed almost immediately, same with the 5 series. And i have been trucking for almost 15 years and have driven all of them. Ur just going off nostalgia.​@@valtterifani

[@A_Magnuss1]

introduced in the mid 1990's, still part of many people's top 10 choices in trucks today. the 4 series is timeless

[@Dan23_7]

I know a guy who still runs a Y reg 164 580, it’s done over a million miles too.

[@kagettadashi4214]

I think the good sale of 4-series Scania is imposed, one of them, by Clarkson. The other reason is, it is absolutely beatiful designed truck. And I think, there is no other person that can deliver presentation or advertising better than mr. so-called Jeremy Clarkson. It is just like someone storytelling about something that a lot of people may won't care about, to be interesting and entertaining.

[@miguelcardoso1903]

And it is a very reliable truck like the 3 series. Sometimes I can see one of both still kicking, 25-30 years later the day they were registered. Same thing with the Volvo FL7/FL10/FH12 series

[@Lewis_Treff97]

Strange watching this after watching the trio do a lorry challenge and having no clue about them 😂. I do say though that those Scanias have aged really well

[@jamiesworld1690]

[@aloniabasmerom8868]

Scania is the Rolls Royce of trucks wide variety of engine choices, unlimited customization both exterior and interior... Respect and love for Scania

[@douglasfisher8665]

I drove a Scania 4 Series in 1996 when they first came out. It was a 124L 360 4x2 with an 8 speed splitter box. Spacious Sleeper Cab with night heater 38 Tonne GVW. It was terrific to drive with a lot of power from a fuel efficient engine , the splitter box gave it a bit extra when climbing hills . I drove it for 2 years and spent many nights sleeping in it.

[@Franco96GTA]

The 4 series is a beautiful truck. So much so that its line continued until the R Streamline series

[@NewRailBasher]

4 series Scanias are brilliant trucks.

[@tenerifereddog3943]

When I was an owner driver I always used Scania. Never owned a new truck because even second hand was so reliable.

[@999nero]

The 4 series are the most beautiful trucks of scania

[@tbmofoulprinceromero]

Even today the design doesn't look outdated

[@fritsmolenaar05]

​@@tbmofoulprinceromeromaybe partly because its mostly the same as the R series. Looks good tho

[@Finnmarken91]

Absolutely love the Scania 4-Series design and in my opinion it's the 4-Series that really set the standard for European forward cab design today aside from the Daf XF.

[@nikonordman7624]

A truck so good looking that it defined how Scanias look like to this day

I bet that 530 would beat the pants of the current Tang V8’s of the S lines

[@montesa35]

This was the same year when the Mitsubishi Fuso in the Japanese market launched their semi-truck called the "Super Great". The design of these trucks particularly the side view has changed almost nothing for the past 28 years. Only those front design panels had just a few minor changes. So Scania & Fuso truck design dont really change them often.

[@bmad1386]

Fuso only started changing noticeably(a bit) when they got acquired by Daimler-Benz. Nowadays Fuso has been losing a bit of reputation due to slight decline in build quality(namely the engines) Their legendary V8s are still around and coveted in southeast asia

Big appliance shake up is coming in Scottish Fire and Rescue though as unfortunately “Emergency One E1 EVO” electric ones designed and built in Scotland ( on Volvo chassis I think) will start rolling out over the next few years too ( first one should be on the road and in trial by now or shortly, but I’m unsure of where it’s going to be/is based, probably central belt somewhere) although they are a bit behind as they have been out 2/3years lol

@@gimble447 one thing for sure is even if Strathclyde and Grampian end up with these electric Volvo abominations, they’ll still have the Scanias for retained and backup units when these electric ones fail, think the best ones they had is the 2014 versions literally the same as the white 2012 with a better ECU map

Regarding the capture dropouts. I stopped using the USB capture cards entirely, and bought early 2000´s SONY DVR, that can record on DVD´s. It records the footage as it comes in trough the analog input, without any de-sync, in a superior quality. After you are done recording on the internal hard drive, you can burn it on to rewritable DVD and copy it to the PC. You can really see the difference between these two videos, it should be obvious which is digitized by what. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pIS5iaJso6h5bKc kzbin.info/www/bejne/jZnUpYqdZ5J_jqs
