Okay, but the cab was so high that you couldn't reach down from the window to get your toll ticket...just edge forward and open the -door and lean out to grab ticket Volvo FH13 auto, great all round, especially the gearbox Volvo FH12 or 13 (not sure) manual, okay but feeling its age. Got rid of it for the new iveco New iveco stralis, boss Got it because nothing else was available, fitted with the stupid uncomfortable corner seat, you ended up sitting on the floor if you are a passenger. Auto gearbox was slow really slow. But it was okay to drive Bosses son got another stralis, 3 months on and the front brake discs were shot. Had to be replaced due to malfunctioning trailer brakes, which meant the stralis was braking 44 tons on mostly the front brakes I want a scania T-cab

Where did you find this info? Do you have a link or source? Is it for all engines or just for 770 one? I’m asking as that would make sense why our r450 scanias are as powerful as I some dafs and MAN with 500+ hp
I always liked the MAN becuase of its simplicity. Easy to use truck. It's not fancy like the others. I would dare to say the most durable truck of them all.
As an owner operator I have been running MAN trucks since 1990. Although they have never been a Company Drivers favourite. That does not detract from the fact that they have always been Reliable and good fuel consumption. And as an owner operator covering most of Europe. The MAN trucks have given me a good living. Never been too fancy and easy to do most repairs. At least until they joined the rest of the modern Trucks. But still my go to work horse.
This is true. Our family company mostly owns MAN trucks and reason for it is great price for performance quality. Sure, they don’t have quality of exterior and interior of my Scania but their new engine are more fuel efficient than one in my r450. Especially 470hp and new 480hp version. MAN is also way cheaper so in economic sense it makes sense to buy them but my heart stay with Scania.

DAF PACCAR'S 11 Litre displacement engine the DOHC MX11. Forgotten mention in the DAF XD Range of trucks. Mercedes Benz also has a larger 15 litre engine for veavy duty applications
The biggest engine displacement for Daimler isn`t 12.8 because those engines top out at 530hp. The biggest engine is a 15.6l with an power output of 517hp, 578hp and 625hp.
True. I have Scania R450 a I have no problem going toe to toe with DAF xf 510 in hills with exactly same cargo. Less powerful daf variants stand no chance. Same with MAN where my colleague overtakes 510-520hp versions in hills with his R450 both hauling 28 tons tank containers.
With all trucks and other work weicles its allways the torque that you actually get at the wheels thats interesting. Look at old Caterpillar tractors. Not as much horsepower. But the usuable torque you actually get was insane. With that said the best trucks in europe happens to be the ones With rhe biggest engine options. Scania and Volvo But its infact their masterful drivetrains that really make the difference against their competitors. You can have 1000 hp but won't be able to use em the best way with a bad or weak drivetrain. So that's for me the biggest difference against other brands. And also all the other better technology that makes these brands rank higher than others. But yes, to a higher price. But the best things often cost more. In this case, they are absolutely worth every extra penny...
Objectively in terms of tech, ergonomics, dealership, reputation, safety, support, reliability etc Volvo is the one to beat out of these, but I have a soft spot for Scania. Either way, the Swedes rules.
All brands have the same safety systems ,they are all as reliable as each other ,they all have issues ,support will probably depend on the country you are in ..In the UK DAF have the best support ..With the Swedes you pay more ,but hopefully you get more back when you trade it in ..Personally i think the 3 Series was SCANIAS best vehicle ,i loved that model .The 4 series was a disaster ,probably the worst truck they made
I drive a 2024 R650 Scania and I love it a few yrs ago I was a Kenworth man and hadn’t even driven a euro but when Kenworth went to autos they don’t compare I was reluctant at first and basically forced into a scania in 2017 but I was sold immediately and only just got out of my 2017 R620 a month ago 7 yrs of relatively trouble free running 1.5 million km pulling 54t.

Daf might be owned by paccar, but they have their own engine R&D departement. So the Engine is a Daf development that is now being used throughout the groep
Correct ..PACCAR is just a name ,they make nothing but own the companies that do ,,The original MX engine was a Dutch product as was the old XE XF WS PR engines
Scanias and Volvos need a lot of horsepower for transporting big loads of timber on bad roads in the forrests of Northern Europe. The authorities in Sweden are even increasing the allowed max loads from 60 000 to 74 000 kgs, which will probably increase the need for big engines even more, even if the North European market is relatively small. Volvo tried to buy Scania about 20 years ago but Volkswagen managed to stop this by using EU laws against market domination. Kind of strange considering the small size of the Swedish market compared to the global market that these two manufacturers really sell on. Otherwise we would probably have had a joint Swedish truck manufacturer today.
@@josviersel Which is only for really heavy transport. For normal transport jobs even 530hp is already way, way overpowered. DAF simply looks at what the largest part of the market needs and builds trucks for that, as does Renault. MAN used to adhere to the same logic, but they decided that they wanted to cater to the upper part of the market, like Volvo, Scania and Mercedes do. Somehow in the mind of many people hp is still synonym to quality/luxury and therefore more must be better.
@@josviersel If that is a normal and regular haul for you then I can imagine wanting more hp. But then you don't have the 530hp Actros, which would make quite the difference. But I'd say which truck you (or your employer) buy(s) is a question of multiple factors. If for every other haul the 430hp is doing fine, then why invest in a 530hp or even more powerful truck, that will likely be less fuel efficient?
@@tjroelsma It is a regular load. Work has a 560hp Iveco - good engine and seat - only nice thing I can say about it - only used as a spare truck. I want the eActros. Work is not buying new trucks anytime soon - they are struggling for work.

2:08 This competition between VOLVO & SCANIA gained even more momentum already in the late 70s and early 80s, between Volvo and SAAB-SCANIA when the SAAB 99 and 900 turbos were the hottest on the passenger car market and with the new Volvo 240 turbo as a challenger. 😎👍 Now that SAAB is no longer built (stopped in 2012), VOLVO has been so bold (or lack of imagination, brain drain) that they have used the SAAB aero logo on their new trucks and called the 2024 model VOLVO FH-AERO. 😄
Id say that this depends a lot on where in EU are you gonna drive. In terms of parts id say Mercedes and MAN are winners since parts are available even in the rural parts of Macedonia or in the cold Dutch sea shore. But in the end they use more or less the same fuel systems and gearboxes
MAN too outdated, and the teeny tiny air tanks combined with a gutless air compressor results in constant building up of air pressure if your not sitting on a motorway all day.
Well, Scania is going for it. In month or two there will be first brand new Scania truck on american roads. Will be driven by Bruce Wilson. Main goal shows and passing some test. But still it's two or three years for maybe an official start of sales. If Scania will succeed then maybe other will go for it. And maybe Volvo will start build EU style trucks in us.
You are 100% correct the best truck is the one that you can afford that suits your needs , As nowdays trucks are a much for much ..They all offer the latest safety systems , etc .Merc have a slight advantage with technology i would say ,due to the investment in the car tech ,which can be adapted for the truck ..DAF are renowned for their beds which are accepted by all to be the best ,They also boast the best breakdown service DAFaid in the UK or ITS international Truck Service for the rest of Europe ..Afterall everything breaksdown ..But they will do the utmost to get it repaired ASAP ,,Scania &Volvo are classed as Premium brands ,as said you pay more ,which hopefully you recoupe with better residuals ..Do you need all that horsepower ? Torque is king is it not ?.Although the VOLVO I-SHIFT gearbox was mentioned it is widely regarded as the best automated truck gearbox on the market..All brands even those not mentioned are good trucks ..And they ALL no matter what make have issues ..And how the respective manufacturer deals with them is of huge importance to the customer,,,,PACCAR are not an engine manufacturer ..The MX11 &13 are manufactured by DAF in Eindhoven and in the states the smaller PX7 PX5 are made by CUMMINS all engines have PACCAR on them ,The vehicle even have A PACCAR product on them .Paccar as such do not make anything ,but own the companies that do
The end of the video was disappointing. The video should have said: if you want power, choose this brand A, if you want fuel efficiency, choose brand B, ..... etc.
Easy list! 1. Scania, 2. Volvo, 3. Draw of Mercedes and MAN, Man has Scanias Interior and beat Mercedes in interior, but Mercedes has better reliability than MAN. and last is DAF that I have nothing good to say about. It's simply put a low budget option if you don't care about your work/workers.
During 2026 VW group own Scania and MAN will share complete chassis gearbox, engines and axles. Just a cab will be different. Scania V8 engine is brilliant but try to order one now. Doesn't past emissions limits so only reordered trucks leave factory and no more V8. They need to find solutions or try to change law.
@@thomtrucker1925 A company in holland make Tcabs ..There is a trucker tim on here who went to holland to collect a new Tcab and you can see how they are made ...But you are correct SCANIA do not make Tcabs ..the company also do bonneted VOLVOS and DAFs

Nice comparison, a few of the lesser known brands would make better, Sisu, KAMAZ Tatra for example
Kamaz it's russian shit on maximality😂
2:08 This competition between VOLVO & SCANIA gained even more momentum already in the late 70s and early 80s, between Volvo and SAAB-SCANIA when the SAAB 99 and 900 turbos were the hottest on the passenger car market and with the new Volvo 240 turbo as a challenger. 😎👍
Now that SAAB is no longer built (stopped in 2012), VOLVO has been so bold (or lack of imagination, brain drain) that they have used the SAAB aero logo on their new trucks and called the 2024 model VOLVO FH-AERO. 😄
Scania for sure!
Not only scania volvo & scania both
The MX13 engine used by Paccar trucks was developed in Eindhoven, The Netherlands by DAF.
Scania is the best.
I do drive a 220hp MAN 15 pallet local distribution truck. No Renaults in the list?
Jesus! After watching all that, still don’t know which one is best! Frustrating!!!!!
3:00 m Paccar engine manufacturer? Paccar engine is the Daf MX 11 and MX 13 engine!
PACCAR is just a name that owns all the brands
Id say that this depends a lot on where in EU are you gonna drive. In terms of parts id say Mercedes and MAN are winners since parts are available even in the rural parts of Macedonia or in the cold Dutch sea shore. But in the end they use more or less the same fuel systems and gearboxes
you had me at Scania.
MAN too outdated, and the teeny tiny air tanks combined with a gutless air compressor results in constant building up of air pressure if your not sitting on a motorway all day.
Volvo ist für mich die Nummer 1.
I am in USA and my cash is ready to buy one.
Well, Scania is going for it. In month or two there will be first brand new Scania truck on american roads. Will be driven by Bruce Wilson. Main goal shows and passing some test. But still it's two or three years for maybe an official start of sales. If Scania will succeed then maybe other will go for it. And maybe Volvo will start build EU style trucks in us.
Scania is the best
Uno più bello e potente dell altro 😮😊❤🎉
You are 100% correct the best truck is the one that you can afford that suits your needs , As nowdays trucks are a much for much ..They all offer the latest safety systems , etc .Merc have a slight advantage with technology i would say ,due to the investment in the car tech ,which can be adapted for the truck ..DAF are renowned for their beds which are accepted by all to be the best ,They also boast the best breakdown service DAFaid in the UK or ITS international Truck Service for the rest of Europe ..Afterall everything breaksdown ..But they will do the utmost to get it repaired ASAP ,,Scania &Volvo are classed as Premium brands ,as said you pay more ,which hopefully you recoupe with better residuals ..Do you need all that horsepower ? Torque is king is it not ?.Although the VOLVO I-SHIFT gearbox was mentioned it is widely regarded as the best automated truck gearbox on the market..All brands even those not mentioned are good trucks ..And they ALL no matter what make have issues ..And how the respective manufacturer deals with them is of huge importance to the customer,,,,PACCAR are not an engine manufacturer ..The MX11 &13 are manufactured by DAF in Eindhoven and in the states the smaller PX7 PX5 are made by CUMMINS all engines have PACCAR on them ,The vehicle even have A PACCAR product on them .Paccar as such do not make anything ,but own the companies that do
MAN and Scania are brand by VW
You Forgot About Iveco🤦♂️
What's Iveco? New name of a toilet paper from IKEA?
Which has best mpg
Which has highest towing
Whats the tonnes to lbs conversion
The end of the video was disappointing. The video should have said: if you want power, choose this brand A, if you want fuel efficiency, choose brand B, ..... etc.
Easy list! 1. Scania, 2. Volvo, 3. Draw of Mercedes and MAN, Man has Scanias Interior and beat Mercedes in interior, but Mercedes has better reliability than MAN. and last is DAF that I have nothing good to say about. It's simply put a low budget option if you don't care about your work/workers.
This is the best channel for newbie truck drivers.
DAF for sure😎
MAN and Mercedes are Afrika 💪🏾
SCANIA best
During 2026 VW group own Scania and MAN will share complete chassis gearbox, engines and axles. Just a cab will be different. Scania V8 engine is brilliant but try to order one now. Doesn't past emissions limits so only reordered trucks leave factory and no more V8. They need to find solutions or try to change law.
I guess this applies MAN versions as they come with different software than Scanias.
They have been part of the VW group for years.
What about Ford Trucks...
Can’t swing a cat in a Scania or Volvo cab
Can we see a video about the Scania T-cab, Volvo VNL, Daf XT and Iveco Strator(the t-cab version of Daf and Iveco)?
Scania Tcab isn't in production any more
@@thomtrucker1925 yea right l.
@@thomtrucker1925 A company in holland make Tcabs ..There is a trucker tim on here who went to holland to collect a new Tcab and you can see how they are made ...But you are correct SCANIA do not make Tcabs ..the company also do bonneted VOLVOS and DAFs
I like the DAF and MAN face-lift ❤
These trucks are also in South- Africa
