Keep up the good work! Coming from truck driver in Finland, I dont get all the hate. Everything is done in good taste, this thing looks way better than half of the trucks over here which are spoiled by cheap aftermarket lights and other unnecessary "cool" parts. To my fellow europeans. Scania has given Bruce green light to do his thing, let him do it. It is not our commonwealth truck, or some other national treasure, its Bruce's job as an ambassador to do the decisions.

Hi Bruce, Under the cab are 3 bodybuilder connectors. C486, C487 and C488. They are connected with the blue connector C494 inside the cab behind the small fuse box p9. You can use them for extra light or something else. On the white connector C497 also behind the fusebox p9, you can find different types of functions. Like reverse signal, blinker left and right, brake signal, upper and lower head beams, worklights, engine turn signal, light signal. Greetings from the Netherlands

[@DougRushing]

From Denver Colorado here. I only just started watching your videos because you're customizing the Scania. Good on ya Bruce

[@dirkdeleeuw584]

Hi Bruce, regards from NL here! I can agree with your customization 👍 It's a different style, but not obtrusive at all thus far. I think you can put round white LED units in the toombstone. That will not ruin the angular appearance as far as I'm concerned. Lots of customization in Europe puts round headlights on lightbars on the front side of the cab. So no concern at all at the back. The deck plate gives a clean look. You can keep it in the stainless look. But it will be a pain to keep clean 😅 The hub caps are great! They look like big robust planetary gears. But you still do need wide front tires 💪 I do appreciate you had the customazion done by professionals. Iowa Customs dit a great job! Better than try to meddle it by yourself. Other than that, I do agree with others, you could refer to the manual more often when you are out of clue about the trucks functionality. Rock steady DAF guy here, but I do follow your channel since your first Scania buy 😃. Great evolution of your life, business and content 🤗

I agree, I think it's going to look good. The only thing I'm unsure of is the round lights when there are no other round lights to match to, small square LEDs or strips would match the other lights.

If you want to use the worklightbutton in the doorpanel for those lights you can access the signals for that and a lot of other stuff behind the bodybuilder electrical panel P9 (the small grey one) in front of the passanger seat. There is a white connector called c489. Work light button is number 7. You should also have electrical preparation further upp the back for more worklights behind som rubber gromets. Hope you can understand my bad english.

You can see if that tombstone is too close by detaching that reaction rod (the air part that you planned to install the light the first time) and moving it by hand. That rod defines if your cab is on level, so by moving it by hand you can control the rear air suspension of the cabin by hand. So basicly tilt it all the way back, and all the way forward to check if tombstone is too close.

Every country and region has their own style and taste of styling. For example: I own several Zündapp mopeds in The Netherlands, some special painted, customized with some small subtile ornaments, but even styling those varied from city to city. Bruce bringing in a brand new Scania into a customization shop, is one of the best things you could do to give that shop an oppertunity to be ahead of all possible sold new scania’s in the US or North America. Customizing and styling something you own, to make it something special, mostly special to you, is a way of expression and art. Keeping it stock is a way to go, but to convince others in the US or North America that it is also customizable and what possibilities there are already, will most likely start a whole new way of style and design as a sub category besides what styling already exists. As a Dutch person I love the styling in The Netherlands of Dutch trucks, especially Scania trucks. But I am curious how this will unfold. Good job Bruce!🎉 Convincing the stubborn old guard that a American styled new Scania will fit in nicely, might prove the chauvinistic old guard wrong, and might convince others that the (new) Scania’s are here to stay.

I don't see a problem with with what you're doing. You know best what Americans like. And it still has the OG Scania spirit, it's not like you're stripping it off it's identity.

The Scalia makes the peyerbilt look like something Fred flint stone would drive.

[@czowiekpracy138]

As user of Scania I'll say: that truck is on US soil, you are the owner, so do with it what ever you want to do. Do not listen to EU viewers. US style sometimes is worth admiring.

[@laz820]

He’s not the owner

[@Xirque666]

​@@laz820ko, but he's using it for PR, to make US truckers stand up for a demand for change when it comes to import laws. He also have to show them that it's possible to customize it.

I'm from the Netherlands, and love to see what you in the US can make of this, with a US version.

[@snukkelpuppie]

Euro guy here, I am actually excited to see what an American can do with this truck. I feel like here in the EU we are like Don’t touch it, it is specially engineered! Americans are more like, hey it’s just a truck, let’s pull the gearbox apart! I like that American spirit. Go for broke dude!

[@almerindaromeira8352]

Yeah, you're right in a way but this is a demo truck which is going to Mexico afterwards. What's the point of a custom demo truck? So that americans can't see the original spec? If it was like the 5th truck in America, sure go ahead, but imo it's not something you do to the 1st one.

[@masterbond9]

@@almerindaromeira8352 i think the point here is for scania to try to enter the american market. the US is one of the few, if not the only country they dont sell semis in. americans love to make their stuff their own, its how they show pride in their stuff. the americans will 100% know what is factory and what is customized. i think the reason why scania is giving him full permission to do these things to the truck, and why so many scania higher ups are watching these videos and reading the comments is because they want to see how possible it would be to bring their trucks here. there is so much time and effort put into building one of these trucks, that it makes no financial sense to just blindly start selling these trucks in the states, because i dont think most truckers here will just blindly go to another dealership for a new truck. they will stay loyal, unless they get a chance to actually see it, touch it and ask questions in the wild. like in previous videos how a few truckers, the minute they sat in the drivers seat, they were immediately very interested in them, one of them was ready to trade in his peterbilt the same day

This has been so fun to watch, thanks Bruce. I guess I would consider myself an amateur fabricator! I’ve done a lot of personal projects myself.

[@glennshughes]

Keep doing what your doing Bruce you understand your target audience far better than any of us Europeans .

[@melgonzalez987]

As a trucker I would love to drive that Scania, also cab overs have a soft spot in my heart….!

[@TichoFanefjord]

Don't forget the top-down drone shots when comparing turn radius to other brands...

[@timothyvandervlugt7817]

''we shouldnt have any problem shipping them anywhere around the world and mexico'' @29:47😂😂😂

[@CptStyz]

Fyi; for the audio you should have the mic pointing towards your mouth for better audio, and that scania rocks!!

[@4D966-x1i]

Those hub covers look sweet bro.

[@tienenaar2295]

Mount some lights behind the top spoiler on the roof pointing backwards. Will light up the trailer and help with loading and securing the load at night.

[@denden8425]

I'll be tuning in the mods that you'll be making in the scania!! keep it up

[@marcsduk]

The button under the acceleration pedal its called Kik down and if you press it will drop down one or 2 gears depends of load
