That kind of fog is the Scania's natural environment ~ add sideways rain, more black ice than black asphalt, gusts of gale force wind and a few random moose to dodge, and your Scania will feel right at home... 😁👍
Higher voltage means lower amps, which means less chance of electrical problems due to shorting. My dad has been on and on about how car batteries need to go to this standard as well since time immemorial XD
I could not believe that the guy was talking of replacing a modern space efficient square tank with some old round thing that would hold less fuel. I guess old habits die hard and they only know what they know . . .
I do hope I didn't hear him right when he said about 'polished aluminium round tank'. NOOOOOOO! Please Bruce just get a Scania tank to replace the hydraulic tank. Take one of the red one maybe? A round tank holds less fuel than cubed one.
Euclid Trucks is a company that specializes in heavy equipment for earthmoving, particularly dump trucks, loaders, and wheel tractor-scrapers. The company was founded in 1907 and operated in the US from the 1920s to the 1950s. General Motors purchased the company in 1950, and later Hitachi Construction Machinery bought it in 2001.
@@kellypitts8481 Yes, it was made by Euclid Trucks from Euclid, Ohio and if Memory serves they were competitor/collaborators with Bucyrus-Erie also out of Ohio.
Euci's were the boss to work on back in the day.......they are as state of the ark as can be, but when other more 'sophisticated' machines were broken down the Euci's were still rolling and when they did breakdown they could be fixed with a crescent and a brick.
Alwats thought terex took over Euclid? Hence the green paint? Case used scania motor's in some of there big tractor range before Cummins. Scania was 1 of 1st big horse power trucks I drove as a young buck hauling silage. I got a video of doing maize silage almost 20yrs ago for local feed lot which is only 1 in New Zealand. G series is the heavy chassis for tipper work or basic heavy haul unit. I had a 143 v8. 14lt series 3 tractor unit with low loader for carting a drill and 16t digger on that when bare back would wind up to 150kph easy and pulled like hell. Twin stacks with the racing exhaust manifolds similar to Marty Mone one just the earlier series for afew year's
quick tip from personal experience, when making a conversion from a conventional bulb to an LED bulb look for ones that say 12/30 volts. the ones that say 24 volts don't last long because when the truck is running it produces almost 30 volts to charge the batteries
@@Bruce_Wilsonplease don't put in round fuel tanks. They will look horrendous. Why get an original looking scania which is extremely rare in the states and instantly make a bollox of it? Just get 2 new square tanks. They will hold more fuel and look a hell of alot better.
Watching this video and shaking my head 🙈😂 Bruce you want to have cool steering wheel, it’s ok but order the proper old school from Go-In-Style from Netherlands ! This imitation looks like shit, it’s not even safe 😂 then you talk about round fuel tanks, oh Lord. You have Swedish truck, build high polished square fuel tanks maybe with a bigger volume but square it’s gonna looks so much better. Keep the spirit of this truck still European that’s what make different from the US trucks. Putting lipstick on pig you still gonna have a pig 😂 Cheers
aMuricans can’t stand European stuff if not tinkering with it to make it "Murican". Even being at higher risk won’t change their traditional driven attitude… ruclips.net/video/LsKSJgDoeIA/видео.html
This! And did we talked about these wheel nut covers? I mean they are nice if you when you drive a horse-drawn chariot in a Roman colosseum but not on a truck and especially not on a Scania if you want to keep him Scania hehe. Absolutely with you with the fuel tanks. Would head for a more square one like companys like Ferikas down in Italy producing them or he can go for a custom tank to fit as much space. But yeah definitely no round one…pls
I knew americans dont run fog lighs, but that truck in front of you in South Dakota didnt even have its tail lights on. In that thick fog. Thats just asking for trouble.
Why domyou think that the USA has one of the highest death rates on public roads of any developed country? You have to visit it to see. Stuff that will make your mouth drop. Like towing at night on the highway with no lights on the trailer in New Mexico was just one example
I'm surprised the other drivers you showed the truck to didn't comment on how much better visibility is in the Scania. No long/wide hood in the way, plus the additional mirrors.
Bruce is pulling the entire PR department for "SCANIA USA" 😂 Good work! Hopefully we can start exporting more of our Scania´s to USA 😄 Just imagen then those "American Truckers" get to see the new Scania´s! Like them you test drove in Sweden a month ago! :D
It being one of the few trucks like it in the States I feel it should be left close to stock in appearance. An exhaust upgrade or modifications out of sight could still be considered.
@@realkiljuPutting that on a Scania... It's so confusing. And please, just let us cry, the video is still great. He can do what ever he wants to do, it his truck. But we still cry about it as Scania fanboys. 🙂
Here we go immediately start talking of cutting off the square tanks and what else Bruce the chassis then single drive to do burnouts. The reason for Square tanks is more fuel longer distance. Leave it alone in original condition.
Bruce thanks again for letting me check out Scania and for you and your brother taking the time to talk with me. I’d love to stop by your shop and see the rest of your toys.
4state trucks is just good people love that you gave them a piece of this Scania Journey seeing how hard those boys work. Road trips like this are so fun to watch
i don't know about how feasible idea this is but could we have in the future (if your enthusiasm suffice) a video about old nosed scanias vs american ones of the same time period like scania 110, 111 or 142H and comparing of them. Remember there are 1000hp Scania V8 with warranty in CV90 Swedish tank and 1200hp in marine applications so little tuning won't hurt it and if you want to compare what it's truly capable there is 2200hp Scania Chimera somewhere there in the wild. Respect and thumbs up from Finland 🇫🇮 👍
It's pronounced Euklid. Quick story. I worked at a TA in Brookville PA. Saw my first Scania it was a conventional hood and fell in love with the sound of the V8!! Love the fact you're bringing them back to the front of people's minds!! Great job Bruce!!
On scanias you can switch off the top spot lights and just turn on the bottom spot lights on high beam for fog. The 2 inside lights in the bumper are high beam fog lights next to the low beam fog lights. But with after market top spot lights it might not work that way. The switches to toggle between top and bottom spot lights should be below the switch to turn on the lights.
That mining truck you were looking at, it's actually made near my town where I live. They're manufactured in Euclid Ohio. Judging by the look of it, I think it might be around the late 50s early 60s era
Those round fuel tanks you talked about are most likely LNG tanks. The newer SCANIA’s have the option to run on natural gas. I recommend getting a bigger square tank (like the one you have now) if you want more range.
Old school American trucks also get the white wheel treatment often. I think the gigantic white steering wheel was just standard equipment back in the day 🤣
I don't understand what the purpose is of wanting to make the European truck look like an American one, just leave it alone in its style, it's not an American truck!
That's like my 2002 Pete. It's called an Auto-shift. I loved mine and with the arthritis in my right hand, it sure was a pleasure to drive. Did my last 3ooK miles before I retired in it.
didn't expect to see a russian tractor (my country) in the video, love the videos and the scania, i love truck spotting irl and recreate some vehicles in my truck simulators i play, i recreated the scania you have, and can not stop driving it in ets, keep up the good work comrade, from russia but in missouri lol.
I was in Joplin yesterday passing by and seen your truck sitting out front loud and proud. I wished I would have known that was you in town. I would have stopped in.
I’m down in Mexico visiting and took a bus trip to the coast on our way back we blew an inner rear tire. Way up in the mountains middle of nowhere I was able to help get the tire changed out and back to town. I can attest to the engineering of scania and the hydraulic braking is crazy good! Force you out of your seat good. A+ ratings from me.
Thats crazy, those steering wheels you showed off, SCI ones, they are in American Truck Simulator, they made a deal with them some years ago and we just got new wheels from them, that Retro one and some of the others, so cool to see them in the video, they look exactly the same in the game! :D
Hey Bruce, a lot of fun things to make you go completely nuts in a Scania. Good luck and have fun. Greeting from The Netherlands as a fellow truck driver..
My dad drove big Euclids mine off road haul trucks back in the early 70's, much larger than this one, over 100 ton capacity if i remember correctly, i was in grade 3 or 4 back then. I did find a brass tag award with an embossed mine truck one day exploring and gave it to my dad, i guess it was a safety award or something. He liked it.

I can't wait for you to get done with "souping" up these Scanias only to get a newer, now new, but to get more original but I guess "souped" to fit what a European actual truckdriver would want. Then show it at places for American truckdrivers to try out and give their opinion compared to their daily. That would be ideal for us Euros to to hear and see. LOVE the series though, big ups. *edit, and to prepare questions for the American truckdrivers to ansewer. That would be ideal. Thanks.
Hey Bruce, I drive a Scania R650 on regular runs from the company depot to Sydney & Melbourne. In my honest opinion it is hand on heart the best truck I have driven period. Love the video content mate…great to see you pushing Scania trucks in the States 👌 Take care mate.
560 by far the best V8 , drove plenty of scanias from 141 142 143 144 & R series , last one before moving to North America, 560 mid lift manual ,great motor , but my fave European motor ever still ERF EC , still literally hundreds running and they ain't built them since 1999 cummins , cat , Detroit or rolls Joyce power , fuller boxes and Rockwell axles exceptional trucks
I dont understand the concept of Americanising this truck, It would make more sense to keep it standard European to show and highlight the difference. Back in the day lots of British operated trucks from both Scania and Volvo were 'Americanised' by false Kenworth style radiator Grills, stack exhaust pipes and extended sleepers. To their owners they may have looked better, but the majority of us ordinary drivers saw them as mongrels ! I personally think if you went ahead with tarting this old girl up, you would spoil the European experience for American drivers, many who would then think it always looked like that . Keep it original Bruce, it would be more appealing in its proper design.....plus Square tanks are good, round tanks hold less!
Thats crazy bro, here in brazil Scania is such a present brand and its been like this for decades,i thinik it all started with the classic 113 and his long nose, such an iconic truck
When I was driving I was working on getting me a long nose Peterbilt but it never happened cause I had to retire from trucking and boy do I miss it my dream truck was a show truck
Greetings to Mr. Marek, whom I met at the station, I also come from Poland, it's very nice to meet someone in the USA from my country. Bruce, I watch all your RUclips content related to the European Scania truck, leave at least one original Scania in the USA and they will reward you with a showcase for your channel. Greetings from Poland :)
Stack exhausts are very popular, Single stack on the smaller straight engines , twins on V8s they sound sweet .. fuel trucks have a exhaust under the front bumper,
If you need Scania parts ever I'd try hitting up Winmill equipment in Windham NH there service there this beyond great compared to anyone but I I've never dealt with them with Scania but they are the oldest International Dresser dealer which is pretty cool in itself
Euclid heavy equipment and earth moving machine company was based out of Euclid Ohio from around 1920 to about 1970 when GM bought them out then sold to Hitachi some years later. They built high quality equipment that was durable and dependable for reasonable price that was fairly easy to repair and maintain.
we have huge oshkosh snow removal equipment at the airport i work at, and the newest ones have scania diesel engines, straight 6 and our snow blower has a v8 660hp scania that drives just the blower, theyre interesting engines, quite smooth and pretty powerfull
Just a holler out from France to say l apperciate your channel. I drove for 22 years here in Europe...Your right to showcase European trucks...Their solid véhicules...One of the main reasons the their flat nosed is because the towns and villages we go through are tight...many areas we go through are even older than America herself....once we quit the highways, it gets tight. Anyway, as l said, just wanted to add my 2 cents to the fact you've got a good open mind and your channel is well worth watching...Bonne Route..
That kind of fog is the Scania's natural environment ~ add sideways rain, more black ice than black asphalt, gusts of gale force wind and a few random moose to dodge, and your Scania will feel right at home... 😁👍

Hi Bruce, you should be on the hunt for a Scania T cab.
They’re ugly af, worst looking trucks ever made lol
When I was driving I was working on getting me a long nose Peterbilt but it never happened cause I had to retire from trucking and boy do I miss it my dream truck was a show truck
I used to go to Velva every weekend and see that truck and really upset I missed you guys
Good on ya bruce. Best of luck with your new scania 😎💪
You should get a scania tcab bullnose they are something else
I'm going to keep this one stock for 5 minutes. :D
Keep the square tanks, and keep the steering wheel…it has the airbag in it.
Im from sweden. I support you pimping the hell out of that truck :)
Greetings to Mr. Marek, whom I met at the station, I also come from Poland, it's very nice to meet someone in the USA from my country. Bruce, I watch all your RUclips content related to the European Scania truck, leave at least one original Scania in the USA and they will reward you with a showcase for your channel. Greetings from Poland :)
Stack exhausts are very popular, Single stack on the smaller straight engines , twins on V8s they sound sweet .. fuel trucks have a exhaust under the front bumper,
If you need Scania parts ever I'd try hitting up Winmill equipment in Windham NH there service there this beyond great compared to anyone but I I've never dealt with them with Scania but they are the oldest International Dresser dealer which is pretty cool in itself
Add a job box headache rack either powder coated black or polished aluminum and add stacks to each side of the headache rack.
That steering wheel is like something out of the 60's. Keep the original
3 spoke steering wheel bruce is officially a dutch spec scania guy lol its addictive
Awesome guys
I extremely proud of you mate huhuu you bring the new era truck in US
Euclid heavy equipment and earth moving machine company was based out of Euclid Ohio from around 1920 to about 1970 when GM bought them out then sold to Hitachi some years later.
They built high quality equipment that was durable and dependable for reasonable price that was fairly easy to repair and maintain.
I’m a die hard 379 fan/owner but I would most definitely try out a Scania
Luego no querrías otra cosa que no fuera Scania .
Better not because Never go back and talk about BACK it will thank you buying Scania because your back be lot better
@8:35 in the video the roll back is my parents my mom said she got to talk to you about it wish i could have been there to meet you
You need to get a nice scania logo to go in the centre of the mew steering wheel
we have huge oshkosh snow removal equipment at the airport i work at, and the newest ones have scania diesel engines, straight 6 and our snow blower has a v8 660hp scania that drives just the blower, theyre interesting engines, quite smooth and pretty powerfull
Im dutch and Go In Style is so big nearly every modified truck in the netherlands has a mudflap of that company
Just a holler out from France to say l apperciate your channel. I drove for 22 years here in Europe...Your right to showcase European trucks...Their solid véhicules...One of the main reasons the their flat nosed is because the towns and villages we go through are tight...many areas we go through are even older than America herself....once we quit the highways, it gets tight. Anyway, as l said, just wanted to add my 2 cents to the fact you've got a good open mind and your channel is well worth watching...Bonne Route..
Pozdrowienia dla Marka z Warszawy ;-)
wouldn't you lose capacity with a round tank as opposed to the cube
