Power of a V8 Scania

[VW3B]

Very nice Scania at 1:29. Cool Video.

[cl998]

Haha, vids like these make it easy to hate (a lot of) Americans, lol, you just make a fool of yourselves with you're "EVERYTHING ELSE IS SHIT LOLZ" attitudes!

BTW, these "EUROFAG LOLZ" trucks aren't as weak as you think. The top Scanias have 730bhp and about 2600lb/ft.

[CJO740]

it sounds really stupid when you sit there and tap the throttle, and that shows no power it just shows an over glorified truck at idle

[naive1987]

@Scoobmeister Actually Cummins was just lucky to BUY the béta system from YES an Swedish company who got the asignment from Scania and Volvo. If you want to be a smartbuy make sure you READ ALL wikipedia data.

[VolvoRox]

What...The...FUCK..Is..THAT?!

[jstett1]

V8 Diesel = JUNK

[naive1987]

@jstett1 lol epic fail, you honestly dont know anything about trucks go play with your matchbox

[killthebums]

come on in ireland we dont need to pull 79ton loads but your country is super big so you need power

[M374EVL]

@Scoobmeister the most powerful production truck in the world is ??

[AllAboutMetal]

Thats Funny Trying to compare Tonka Trucks With American Trucks.. Scanias Are All Show, I'd like to see one in The U.S, no way it can keep up with real truckers... I'm going to get responds from Scanny Fannys.. Ha Ha... Try me Motherfuckers... Lol  American Trucking Is The Best. =)

[naive1987]

@AllAboutMetal lol fancy boy go play in the sandbox

[Jono3300]

give me an american truck anyday.

[Chris124ful]

ah i forgot to say about the gear shifter:

The american gear shifter is totally different than scania's sihfter idiots....only one truck(daf 2000)had american gear shifter and it was very good,but now there are better...

also my dad's scania 142 had american shifter too.

we do not love scania for his logo,but for his sound and design.

all in all,european trucks are the best.New volvo Fh1 has already reach 700HP!where are your shit american tractors ?

[Chris124ful]

Yeah bla bla

one says he has driven scania and it is shit.

This hasnt not be said from guys that doesnt like scania too...They are very confortable and better diesign*interior-exterior)than you shit interiors of your american trucks...The mirrors remind me truck of 1980 age oO

and btw,you might have better(MIGHT,not sure)engines and more HP,but not so nice design.Put some good wheels at those ungly too trucks.OMG!

Scania the best!

[csebalyn]

and still, where's the bloody power of a v8 scania in this video? :)

[mrerkman0]

what a bunch of pieces of shit!!! Bring one to the US it would be hilarious to see it try to keep up with a C-15.

[naive1987]

@mrerkman0 foulish american

[fullysiktrucka]

@mrerkman0 Mate C-15's are gutless, i ran a C-16 twin turbo acert in a road train in a T908 and it had nothing against a 8v92 detroit and a know for a fact that my old mans 530 V8 Scania Tbag shits all over the detroit. These things are built for the autobahn where you do 120kms+ i been to germany and seen em do it

[mrerkman0]

@fullysiktrucka the 8v92 is a joke. We use them in the states in our school buses. If you even point the bus in the general direction of a hill it slows down. With the C-15 its all about how the parameters are set up. Mine was wide open and set at 625 HP. I have since driven a 650 HP ISX Cummins with an 18 speed and I like it more than the Cat. The only V style to ever give me a good run was the 12v92 detroit. Very rare to see one of those

[mrerkman0]

@fullysiktrucka I had to go look to see how fast 120kms is in mph. Its about 75mph which is the legal rate in many western states. In Utah its 80 mph. My Peterbilt had the Cat messenger screen in the dash and I could watch the speed digitally after the speedometer was burried at 85mph. One night coming into Nevada I had it at 115mph and still had another gear to go, Thats with an 18 speed, 3.23 gear ratio and 24.5 inch tires. I backed off the throttle I got scared

[fullysiktrucka]

@mrerkman0 yeh mate but but your not runnin 120 ton, i am, and a c-16 can be opened up to 725, mines wound up to 660 and the series 60 still flogs it, mate a Vt903 runs it into the ground. CATS are crap mate in my books, they cant handle heavy weights, it might be alright for ou guys because you'se mainly run single but none of my trucks do, they are all B-Double and higher. im already swappin out the CAT next year because it cant hack it

[TheBizkit83]

@mrerkman0 you have no idea what you're up against.

[icelineman]

It would have no problem keeping up with a c15 because the c15 would be in the shop getting fixed, the c15 has to be the most problematic engine cat ever made. 3406 e was a much better engine

[NLterror6000]

@icelineman I love you for this comment :D

[renan2253]

PARECE Q TA PEIDANDO ESSA PORRA!

[mikeejay63]

nice video.but I would put my work truck(kenwortth w900) up against these anytime

[TheBizkit83]

@mikeejay63 and your truck would get whipped every time lol

[goatmennum2]

@mikeejay63 KNEWORTH KENWORTH KEWOTH

[scotstrucker]

Just read scoobmeister's comment....he obviously hasn't driven a Scanny....best trucks on the road bar none...and as for yank trucks ?....jesus they're stuck in the stone age !

[M374EVL]

just read this guy scoobmeisters comments he obviously a wanker with out a licence or someone driving a scania ran over his favorite dog or cat hahahaha

[arubberball]

stuck in the stone age, but we can go faster then 52 mph...cabover suck.

[Seros1995]

Amazing sound!

And for americans:

Hey idiots,you say scania is shit!

Show us your sound then!

[TheFireman203]

personally i live in the us and i would love to hav a scania like these they r so awsome lookin and not to be a dick but our v-8 detroit diesels sound good one of my fire trucks at the station hav one

[496velle]

SHIT TRUCKS SOUNDS LIKE A SCHOOL BUS

[Andewww93]

nice scania and nice sound

[bigtank2185]

these trucks are ugly as shit, but i do like the sound.

[KrudRepublc]

True that. They're so ugly they're cool.

Has anybody ever run an American Conventional Cab like a Pete against these guys? Just wondering...

[M374EVL]

brilliant nothing beats scania

[rich17279]

White trucks are better

[cemmas]

[M374EVL]

whata great truck the power of a scania is felt around the world great is what they areSCANIA ADMIRED BY DRIVERS

[papahimmler]

those are some ugly trucks. and this video leaves me wondering what power is being conveyed? All it's about is a couple of those ugly trucks parking in the grass, with some small ass exhaust pipes going vroom vroom. that is vroem vroem for you dutch bastards out there. ik had toch meer video kwaliteit verwacht van een nederlander.

[brummi328]

Wat een stumperds. broembroem. Er zijn er bij die met een harde snikkel achter het stuur zitten.En dat voor zo'n kruiwagen.

[jasy87]

i had a rare scania in my garage the other day it was a "Royal Centurion Scania" each cylinder had its own exaust its was a beauty of a truck and what a sound!!! it was for alignment, im sorry i didnt have a video but what a fecking sound it gave out each pipe was 6 inches in diameter and it shot flames if you stared it and put the foot down

[fontheking5]

I would love to hear that . That must have sounded AWESOME

[jasy87]

heh heh heh it was!! and according to the plate it was one of a thousand!!! like i said fontheking5 no video but the sound still haunts the garage XD

[valleyfever]

These are cool trucks! Are they 2-stroke V8s or 4-stroke?

[brubek1]

sign me up

[CUMMINANDSCANIAV8]

naw thats yer maw thats there surprised uve ever seen a fanny ya prick away n wank over trains insteed ae bangin on boot scanias there pride a joy

[CUMMINANDSCANIAV8]

but U FUKIN ARE U CRITISIZE TRUCKS WEN U FUKIN LOVE TRAINS YER A WANKER FUK OFF

[CUMMINANDSCANIAV8]

scoobmesiter is a wank

[goreziad]

scania is the best. only american use thumb down.

[bluegrassboy2448]

sounds great but just doing some reasearch...some pick up trucks here in the us use V8 diesels and the dodge brand of pick up truck uses an inline 6 Cummins...and my take would be the inline 6 is prefered in a truck

[okke8]

scania power scania the best

[goreziad]

yep.

[bernardi666]

scania is the best !!

[ErikasTGX]

yea the sound is awesome , the truck looks great but .... watching this is not the same as when you stand near that big thing and hear that sound ... it's not the same , you have to be near the truck in real life to feel the power of V8 ... watching on youtube is just a little raindrop of that feeling .

[Muffinrider]

No, 3.5 litre V8 Rovers sound cool too (eew).

I am not into trucks but the old V8 Mack sounded awesome. The Caterpillar 3408 sounds pretty cool, the Cummins 903 did not sound so hot, but it was a good performer. Go!!! Scania fans... great to see you have pride in the big hearted Swede!!

[glen1304]

I wrote "the" not "this" or "these"

Generalizing that all V8 Scanias sound cool when working hard...And they do!

I am not a Scaina fan, but credit where credit is due!!

[glen1304]

The v8 sounds real tuff under load!!

[Gazzyclz]

Owned a 98 scania bfore 650 horsepower went

to fast around a corner last year it tipped over we lifted it up started fist tick who ever owns it now will notice its throtle works by string the company i sold it too didnt even check it out bfore i sold it to them LOL

[kadirzo]

[anthony342]

love that sound !!!!!!!!!!!!

[glen1304]

Fuck that! It's like a cross between Coneheads & transformers.

[Burny1110]

Hy Scoobmeister,

thats exactly that, what i want to say, may you understand it the wrong way :-)...

Greets

[glen1304]

WTF??

[Burny1110]

MEGA LOL!!!

Sinning wheels on mud and grass...

That show´s POWER!!!

The sound is cool, but all other?!?

[dieselphil59]

hey scoobmeister,i agree with you 100%,scanias are over rated parcels of tin scrap,cab is rubbish,brakes,if they want to work might stop you,side panels and mudguards rattle and shake and usually fall off,you scania drivers have a disease called scaniaittas,anything is better than a scania.

[bargd73]

The I-6 is a wobbling giant freak like a little gas bimmer m3. ponder this retards: 720/8==90.Like the block it sits in, at 90 degrees.Go figure out what I type here, not enough room.The six cylinder needs a 120 degree block. Give exploding cylindrs a chance to balance themselves and you'll see why the simple concept of scania v8 is a legend. Not to mention the imperfections of diesel over ruled by the 90 degree fires.. the hardly twisted take off torques and sustaining must be very friendly.

[JOTA430]

is very good, very fantastic, scania king :P...xaoz...

[861mike]

You guys are so boring!! Neither of you fought in the war and neither of you invented anything.

A Truck is a tool to do a job no more no less.

[Afghanen]

We were much smarter tan that, we sold the steel to the germans. Therefore after the war we were one of richest country in the world..

[kwbadge]

im sooo freaking lost man i might be a kenworth fan tilll i die bt man i gotta say scanias are a good tool as well. and dude do uz mean english or americans or austrailians who exactly

[Afghanen]

Ok, was the followin invented by english people: Propeller, dynamite, tetrapak,Ericsson,?? no, dont think so.. The only thing you guys invented was the "teatime" jolly good chaps!!

hahahaa.. im gonna piss on you.

[Afghanen]

Scoobmeister,,get a life..english wanker...What good has ever comed froom england?? The women?? no thanks..=)

Suck my d*ck!

[Afghanen]

Scoobmeister my dear: It has been said and reported millions of times in magazines all over the world: Scania just kicks everyones ass!

I suggest you go back to your unmodern yankee-truck or what the fuck you are driving you retard...

[Afghanen]

Its a Scania?? That says all...

[Afghanen]

best truck int the world!!

[carlocardillo]

there great trucks on irish roads.used by most companies.most companies who do very heavy moving of 100tons and above use them.i have hears of one that has done 3 million miles with no problems.....

[panamcunard]

I wish Scania would import some of those V8 trucks to the US. Those thing would eat a Petterbuilt with there 16 liter V8.

[Cisco79]

I've drived a Scania 143 V8 450hp for 13 years...the best Scania ever,IMHO.

At 1.000.000 km (ONE MILLION OF KILOMETRES) it only needed to a fix at plunder's strips, 'cos it started to eat into motor oil. After that fix it goes for another 350.000km, then I must sell it. :(

Still now, it's running on italian motorways =)

Now i drive a Iveco Stralis (it's not mine =( ) and very often I'm in garage for fixes at engine,junction box, etc. etc....It is 1 and an half year old, with 200.000km!!!!!

[Cisco79]

PS

The Scania was my father's truck...i drived it the first when i was 15yo ;)

[10rubberduck4]

well i have worked on DAF, and there clearly only good for a scrap yard so are iveco ford there breakdown record is pants and i mean PANTS. scania have made some fine trucks and ive never heard so much bull from donroz, in 25 years of being a mech, i have not had many scania in to fix, mostly, merc as there rust buckets, iveco mainly due to radiator and axel problems, and as for daf's most drivers tell me their pure rubbish. my fav's are pegasus.

[DonRozalexo]

25 Years as a mechanic? What are you a filter swapper?

Have you worked on a Scania lately? Try changing a header tank on an XF, then try the same job on an R series! Then there's all the stupid panels you have to remove, more like a bloody transformer! "Bags of shit in disguise!"

Then there's the dreaded opti-cruise gearbox that takes about 3 days to change gear! (When it works at all!) All in all there are far better trucks out there.

[DonRozalexo]

Am I also right in thinking that Scania are the only truck manufacturer to put the Header tank for the cooling system on the "inside" of the cab?

[anthony342]

they look much better with topliner ....

[tbmonsen]

"Scania sucks", "Overrated", "Disgrace for Sweden" etc. etc. Tell us what's better to buy and drive if the Scania built trucks are so seemingly bad? All you experts must be able to come up with 3-4 makes that are better? Yes?

[DonRozalexo]

Yes, Merc, Man, Daf, Volvo And Iveco, There you go Five! If you fancy an eight legger you can also get a Hino, Not that you'd ever buy a Scania 8 Legger, they are worse than the tractor units!

[EMMABEARV8POWER]

You are a real tosser!!

Your just pissed you probably give a ERF!!!

[DonRozalexo]

This video is called "Power Of A V8 Scania" and all it shows is some Poxy Scanias driving round a field ???? The blue one at the end isn't the sound of the truck, but someone farting down the microphone. Seems this is all Scania's are any good at, certainally are'nt any good for anything else!

[ruquik]

Wow, a slighlty more powerful POS Powerjoke/Duratrash diesel. What do you get, like 300,000 mi (or what ever bass-akwards metric equivalent is) out of these things. From a durability stand point these can't touch and in-line six. Plus V-8 diesels (except 2-strokes) sound like crap anyway. But hey, if thats the only way to get a truck across the pond with decent power than so be it.

[EMMABEARV8POWER]

Yes it was,

Considering you dont like them you vist this site an lot dont ya!!!

[chrisutubecom]

Excellent video! I just bought a V8 car art poster from cartech49 dot gr. Great fun art for my garage wall!

[EMMABEARV8POWER]

BOLLOCKS!!!!!!

[Bassozaur]

Hello people,ever heard of Tatra?Now those are real beasts \m/

[zalute]

V8 V8 V8 V8 scania horse powa

[Gieuw1]

Why are all scania fan's such idiots?

[Gaz5976]

We are not idiots, but we are real drivers who know what a good truck is! that is Scania!

[DonRozalexo]

If you think a Scania is a good truck you need help!

They are poorly made, unreliable endlessly flawed and grossly overrated! All your concerned about is that it has a Scania badge on the front, You could take any pile of shit put a Scania badge on the front and idiots like you would like it, Ooops I forgot they did, it was called the 4 series Lol!

Latest R series recall: track rod end pinch bolts shearing, its only the steering, nothing major! Another quality product from Scania!

[swiftyjim2]

cat means PUSSYS!

[Kari3n]

Scania V8 are the best!!

[JohnDeereA219]

i hav to say that the classic style of a kenworth w900 with the power of a 600 cat and 18 speed eaton is the way to go

[elyohcsrev]

....Oh God no....used both Scannies as well as Cat and Cummins powered US trucks (K'woppers and Petes) and the US things, sorry, dont even come close. Thirstier, rougher, noisier, have to slow down in the bends, roll like pigs, still using multi-speed crash boxes, unsealed un-pressurised cabs etc etc. Only got radials about fifteen years ago. The poor old US couldn't engineer itself out of a paper bag.

[bluegrassboy2448]

dude diesel is diesel..its all power man..these things have helped build western society so no hard feelings man were all cool here

[elyohcsrev]

Yeah...you're right.

[bluegrassboy2448]

i mean these scanias sound awesome...seems like europeans take alot of pride in their trucks...some americans do too..but the owner operator isnt as found in as high concentrations as it once was..but man id love to take a ride in one of these things..and mabey one of us will give u a ride in a pete or something lol

[kalanike]

elementok, you drive?

[kalanike]

I've seen a MAN V10, not bad for something of a 20 something litre displacement, but only 603bhp.

[elementok]

horsepower is nothing

TORQUE is everything.

[jeanbanahn]

ugly fuckin box...discrase for sweden, volvo makes nice trucks though..

[ubangiestomp]

They have rednecks over their also.Cool!Thats where it all came from.lol

[johnwygant]

i detroit diesel guy, but thats cool.

[kalanike]

The Biggest On-Road engine offered right now is Caterpillar's C-18 (700h.p.) only by special specs though. Then Volvo's D16-660 comes in 2nd while Scania's DS16 (620h.p.) comes in 3rd.

[Amesz00]

What about MAN v10 or v12? Good for 1000hp plus. Primarily for military heavy tank transporters, I think.

[kalanike]

Would be nice to see Scania sell trucks in the U.S. again...and hopefully if or when they do, they'll offer the 16L V8

[rvrjr7]

beautiful trucks wish they would sell those here in the states id buy one

[PPK5]

o yes o yes

[isxfazi]

Nothing beats the sound of that V8 but there's one thing euro trucks miss, a fuller box & a jake brake, pure driving pleasure. The euros have comfort but character goes to the US!

[pavelbotev]

You should not say something like that because the really strong trucks are not in U.S. They are the uglies though. I am truck driver in Illinois btw

[smirnofowner]

A normal Scania has 580 Hp 16 liter (1000 cuin) there are bigger if you need.....and it looks like its build in 2007, not 1959

No US truck can even come close.

[Psycho9263]

I prefer my Kenworth W-900 Powered by a 500hp Turbocharged Caterpillar Diesel. An American Truck! Where the real trucks are.

[XhaLeSWE]

the sound of music... =]
