InFlamesor12 Thank you. I've know you've been around my channel for a good while now. It's nice to see a positive comment like "I am happy for you" as that says a lot about you :)
Squirrel You're welcome, you deserve it. And yeah, I've been here since you've started posting bf3 beta videos ...and I actually kind of miss the battlefield videos you did with oshi7 and the others.
Nice driving and best score of the day. Congrats! "-Did you drive a truck in real life? -No. But I've already rolled over a Renault in that hairpin and flew over the bump with a SCANIA, landing on it's side, in a simulator." kappa
Man, these latest generation trucks are so easy to handle. 60 tons, 25 meters long and he drives it with almost zero effort. When i was taking lessons for my class 4 - 4L licence we practiced on 18 meter long, 12 shift manual gearbox trucks and they where a handfull to operate. I even failed the first time i took the final exam and had to wait 2 months for the next one.
Tomaras Theodoros exactly , my first volvo was a manual 16 shifter with ranges , we even did not have servo steering on the wheel , so you had to really work your ass off to get a trailer into a position
Cameron Miles You think so, he had trouble releasing the handbrake. He did the same move as the animation in Ets2, I'm not convinced that he is ready for real world truck'n.
Lee Hutchins of course he’s not ready , being a virtual driver or a real one as a proffesion is a big difference , you need to feel the weight , be in certain situations , driven with different trailers
What a fantastic experience! Personally I would love to have the chance to drive a train, but I think a few people would have something to say about that xD
Moleman978 I would love to aswell. But with what you do with that poor 395 Javelin just outside stratford or ebbsfleet when it is going so slow, and you crash into it...
As a American Trucker, I have to say, I am impressed with your control, and driving performance for your first time behind the wheel of a big truck.... Well done Mr Squirrel.
Brings me back to when i was in school. Driving these beasts for the first time on narrow roads trying to keep yourself on the road. Thinking about traffic and the manual gears did not help. Trust me manual gears is not easier, it just gives you more to think about. But again now 3 years later it's nothing special and demanding as it used to. I'm not saying it's always a walk in the park, because its not. And it will be atleast 30 years before i can call myself an expert. But truck driving is a very satisfying job. You always miss it when you're gone from it for a while. Wouldn't give it away for anything really! Good job by the way man, great driving ;D Greetings from Norway.
VernalHooksGaming Nah, I wouldn't say so. This is a modern top-notch truck with automatic transmission that every one with a regular car license can drive. Here in Norway all roads are narrow, and when going with the Scania manual 12-speed you have to stay focused when rolling for the first time. This were just relaxing, comfy, understandard truck driving.
Wow i am very impressed to be able to hear the big V8 rumbling away there. I used to love hearing the 164G 580 Scanias in New Zealand with straight exhausts rumbling away. Very cool experience for you to be able to drive the trucks too. I have been a professional driver for 13 years now but mainly in american kenworths and freightliners in australia and i now drive petrol tankers. Keep up the great work
That was amazing, took me back to my childhood of travelling over many parts of Europe, Germany, France and Spain just to name a few. From about the age of 11 to my early teens I went with my dad and his Scania (this was back in the 90's) it had 500BHP. The trucks back then weren't as "high tech" as the ones to day though, however we did know how to disable the limiter (pull fuse number 10 if I remember correctly)
Great video, Paul! I have been looking forward to this since you told us you were going to Sweden. Must have been an amazing experience for you, I'm very happy you got to do this!
And people say you can't learn real life things in a sim. :) Nice driving. I don't have a driving licenese,(Even though I'm 43...yes, I know, shut up) but I have 3000 hours on my ETS2 sim rig. I would LOVE to try this before I get a license, just to see. :)
I have to say, I'm happy for you Paul. I've been a fan of Scania trucks for a while. The chances of me actually getting to drive one are very low. Happy trucking Paul!
Great video Squirrel, keep them coming. I would love to drive one of these behemoths one, but until then I can enjoy watching you. Can't wait for the next part, hoping it's the G410.
What a wonderful little boy to think of you, I think you would never of thought that a little boy and his mom would make one of your dreams come true. Great story! You lucky bum Squirrel! Good for you! And thanks again to that little boy who help made this possible for you.
My dad has a R440 and i love it to bits. The brake lights actually do go on if you use the retarder, you can change that in the settings of your centerdisplay. Enjoyed the vid.
Wow Paul! Missed the event, I got stuck with other things.. otherwise I would have come there! But really wow, you drive like you've done it so much already.. IRL I mean.. Cause ingame you're already great ;) Do you have a truck license? I dont remember, sorry! =) Great video! Cant wait for next!
I didn't know the Scania centre is that real.I 've only driven the Scania Truck from my desktop.I thought it was just a virtual place.All the roads are exact.I am impressed!
Paul, what an amazing experience to share with all of us trucking enthusiasts! Looks like you had a great time and also drove that Scania like you had years of experience. Good to see this kind of content too.
The Flying Gasmask I'm not from Denmark, not a fan of the country myself so I wouldn't really go out of my way to find out what's happening in it. It seems like they're having issues with Ryanair's work ethic?
jogijxxx its something with the work policy, the workers at ryanair are not getting paid good enough, so some of the people hired by the goverment is not alowed to fly with ryanair
Wow SQRL gratz on the score! It was really impressive to see you driving it with such a confidence. I think I would be kinda scared because I'd hate to scratch such a beauty. :) Anyways... Looks like it was a great experience - you truly deserve it for all the videos and entertainment you've given us. Gratz once again!
Paul, if it weren't for you i probably would've never gotten into ETS2....you're always so relaxed and I can tell you have a real passion for it (especially Scania, lol)
Dank Dash I fly with Ryanair with short trips no harm, only in some airports like Københavns' Kastrup airport it's far from the centre of the airport so plenty of walking 🚶
Just wondered if I could make a Instagram fan page devoted to you and your channel Paul, I'm asking because I would want you to be ok with it I think it would bring an audience to your channel via Instagram Thanks Paul
That's a cool show you went to there. You should come to Mount Vernon, Washington and see the Paccar facility in April. Paccar is who builds the Kenworth and Peterbuilt trucks here in the U.S.
Bloody Brilliant - I wish I was there. I loved the trucks, but most of all the head cam - what a view, you can see everything wow. I'm off to watch part 2 now.
that is by far some of the cleanest driving from a novice i have ever seen.It proves that ETS2 really is a true to life simulator.you should get your cat C and C+E licence!
I would have been scared shitless driving this with all that weight first go but the scania guy was very calm and a good instructor. Everything as he spoke was cool and collected to make sure a first time driver wasn’t going to panic with all that weight
My god,i see this video only now in 2017,i am so happy as u are driving this incredible machine Mr .:),it seems ETS 2 helping so much not just playing but learning...i want to see more legal age players driving this in real life.I just love it.Well done.
This is a really great video. Nice to see the sights over at Scania and all the technology in these trucks. Also, excellent camera work by Mrs. Squirrel.
Can't wait to see Part #2! Your videos are top quality and you are an asset to the TH-cam and ETS community and I hope you continue to entertain us for years to come!
Excelent footage Paul, maybe your best to date. Gotta say, when I saw it was automatic my heart sank. Then I found out you have a manual in pt2. Can't wait, keep up the good work. All the best. YOTS!!
Thumbs up for the videos Squirrel, they are absolutely awesome. You are one hell of a lucky guy to get your hands on the R730, that's a beast of a truck. The muffled V8 just sounds as awesome as the straight pipes. Looking forward to part 3...
I am so envying you right now. I can only imagine how much adrenaline there was driving the real thing straight from the simulator, which now proves that the simulator actually does give realistic experience. The more reason to continue on my ETS2.
This is top notch stuff Paul, I never would have thought you could make it this far on ze youtube and twitch, Iam so incredibly happy for you.
InFlamesor12 Thank you.
I've know you've been around my channel for a good while now. It's nice to see a positive comment like "I am happy for you" as that says a lot about you :)

+InFlamesor12 I can't stop laughing at your profile pic
+Squirrel is the off-road route in promod?
17:35 You could have chosen autoparking but you would have lost the EXP points!
lol
lol
lol
lol
Lmao
I didn't know Euro Truck had a graphics update. :D
haha
A HUMUGUS UPDATE
They also added an assistant with a voice
and a HD wife with a camera :D
LOL
"It's a V8, that's 8 cylinders in a V shape."
Thanks for clearing that up Scania training driver... Lol...
lmao
He's just trying to help people learn.
Jackomac43 I actually never knew that the cylinders were in a v shape LOL
not all are v shaped
hahahaha i just red this after i heared it xD so funny
The driver instructor is such an nice guy
*most* Scandinavians are, I say most because always got bad apples 🍎
Nice driving and best score of the day. Congrats!

What texture pack is that?
I think it's the 'realistic pack'. It's a cool texture pack as it even adds hands on the wheel.
@@Bruhhhokay hands are models , not textures . ( models add objects and shapes , textures add colours and/or "texture" to them. )
😂😂😂😂
the instructor had no idea he was sitting next to a seasoned proffesional
Cameron Miles You think so, he had trouble releasing the handbrake. He did the same move as the animation in Ets2, I'm not convinced that he is ready for real world truck'n.
duniber sorry you missed my sarcasm!
duniber he did one thing slightly different all he did was not pull it back, but really think he's not ready ?
Lee Hutchins of course he’s not ready , being a virtual driver or a real one as a proffesion is a big difference , you need to feel the weight , be in certain situations , driven with different trailers

Brilliant video Paul. I was getting giddy just watching you drive that beauty, I can't even imagine how you felt!
That looks like a wonderful experience! Very good driving, Paul!
The best that day!
I love the new graphics for ETS2.
That's so awesome! Thanks to the woman working at scania for making this happen.
So happy for you, great video, can't wait for part 2!
What a fantastic experience! Personally I would love to have the chance to drive a train, but I think a few people would have something to say about that xD
Moleman978 I would love to aswell. But with what you do with that poor 395 Javelin just outside stratford or ebbsfleet when it is going so slow, and you crash into it...
Yeah but that's only because I drive trains that don't have TVM430, irl the train would have and I'd be fine :P
Moleman978 you'd be fine in a train!?!? PFFFT!
I can drive professionally when I want to :P
Moleman978 Oh I don't know...there might be an opening soon in Philly!
As a American Trucker, I have to say, I am impressed with your control, and driving performance for your first time behind the wheel of a big truck....
Well done Mr Squirrel.
Awesome when a simmer gets to try the real deal. Great driving and awesome truck!
***** Didn't expect you here capn! But yeah i wish some plane factory would call you for a "test flight" :P
lol.

8:50 That was almost a "Gorman" from the movie Aliens moment.
Lucky that everybody knows you've done it well over 38 times. lol
This is awesome. You did such a good job driving the truck! Thanks for sharing this with us :)
Must've been amazing driving that Scania, I'm so jealous :P
For a first time real life truck driver you were perfect at it! :)
VernalHooksGaming Nah, I wouldn't say so. This is a modern top-notch truck with automatic transmission that every one with a regular car license can drive.

Score of 100%... next thing you know, squirrel's quit TH-cam and is now a full time trucker xD
The irony in this is that Squirrel actually became a pilot and not a truck driver. xD
SuperCalaMan01 piloting is were the money’s at , not trucking (anymore)
@@Streetrocker28 not in Europe in the US I make $9,000 a month as a owner operator
Amazing feeling when you drive a real truck, I guess! You're well skilled)
The 4 people that disliked are salty cause they didn't go XD
DanOfAwesome ™ Their dislike says a lot more about them than it does about me or the video.
+Squirrel can you bring me with you?
+Squirrel Are you in sweden?im from sweden
Ludde Lundkvist Sadly, Squirrel lives in England
were is him
1:01 I can see myself :D That was the best day of my life!
Next go to Renualts test center lol
SwedishHouseFifa Paul at Renault....... Hope they have a large budget for his visit lol
No, way. There are just going to be a bunch of crashes and engines stalling XD
Jim G *drives the test truck of a cliff*
SwedishHouseFifa u mean, Renault crash center?
Omg äntligen en svensk

Great video! But since your camera was at the level of the visor, I kept finding myself involuntarily ducking down to see what was ahead LOL.
That was amazing, took me back to my childhood of travelling over many parts of Europe, Germany, France and Spain just to name a few.

Great Job Squirrel! I wish they would do these 60 ton loads in ETS2 without having to do mods.
Been so looking forward to this. Great driving there Paul, I can imagine the smile on your face when you jumped out the cab!
Hard to believe this was nearly a year and a half ago
Great video, Paul! I have been looking forward to this since you told us you were going to Sweden. Must have been an amazing experience for you, I'm very happy you got to do this!

I am so happy for you Paul, I can't believe all the hard work you have done and look where it got you, in the seat of a R730!!!!!!! Great Work man.
i never expect you have your face as avatar in ETS2
I have to say, I'm happy for you Paul. I've been a fan of Scania trucks for a while. The chances of me actually getting to drive one are very low. Happy trucking Paul!
I can really see this YOTS kicking in... let's see how it is a year after...
BTW: Is that a alcohol interlock device in the cabin of the first truck?
***** Yes, a Dräger :)
Great video Squirrel, keep them coming. I would love to drive one of these behemoths one, but until then I can enjoy watching you. Can't wait for the next part, hoping it's the G410.
ryanair class :p
EternalFlame71 "class" ;)
EternalFlame71 Stockholm Skavsta.
EternalFlame71 That 737 looked beautiful
EternalFlame71 Is Ryanair as bad as we across the pond have heard? Weren't they the ones who were going to put in vertical seating and pay toilets?
yea and they are planning to cramp 200 seats into a plane that is meant to carry only 160 passengers
What a wonderful little boy to think of you, I think you would never of thought that a little boy and his mom would make one of your dreams come true. Great story! You lucky bum Squirrel! Good for you! And thanks again to that little boy who help made this possible for you.
I'll tell hou what Mate considering you are not a truck driver this is some bloody good driving!
Barnem13 He's put in many hours on a proper simulator so I expected him to be really good to be honest
My dad has a R440 and i love it to bits.
The brake lights actually do go on if you use the retarder, you can change that in the settings of your centerdisplay.
Enjoyed the vid.

Paul, what an amazing experience to share with all of us trucking enthusiasts! Looks like you had a great time and also drove that Scania like you had years of experience. Good to see this kind of content too.
I have to say it must have been nerve racking to drive a big trailer at that speed!
Gamerguy_YT The brakes are very good and responsible, so these speeds are just fine for any trucking car driver.
dude im not the one driving and i was already nervous watching behind a monitor xD
Maaaan, so jealous! Good driving! Keep up the good work, loving your content :)
yeah :D
Good job Paul, I've been looking forward to you driving a truck in real life for ages! Can't wait for part 2!
Centre? Center* eh?
The M6 Really? I'm British and it is spelled "centre" here.
The M6 Wow...thanks for the laugh ;)
The M6 Its actually Centre. The United States Of America changed the way its spelled.
Strategos in Swedish its center
Ettap No it's not. Look in the video right after the takeoff scene. It say's on the building "centre"
obviously the kids mom is really high up in the company if she was able to arrange such a trip for you. what a magical journey
I will say, never tell anyone from Denmark you have flown with ryanair, they are going to be so butthurt.
FingerDatPat he dosent have to, cause i just saw him doing it ;)
FingerDatPat why? I've flown Ryanair for past 2 years about 50 times, what's the beef with Danes here?

I'm so jealous.
Congrats Squirrel. I been waiting for this vid. Looks like you were having a ball driving that truck. Hats off to you.
Is Squirrel a truck driver in real life ?
No
idk but you must be very experienced to drive a truck with trailer
Wow, WELL done Squirrel! :)
I will never fly with RyanAir!
Homie Sloth ??
Dank Dash lol I remember that
Dank Dash I fly with Ryanair with short trips no harm, only in some airports like Københavns' Kastrup airport it's far from the centre of the airport so plenty of walking 🚶
0:42 wouw that green truck is absolutely gorgeous!
Comfortable? Until you drive a Volvo
Actually drive the worst style suspension on dirt, then go on the highway and it feels like heaven.
Ryan Broeren A Volvo is comfortable? Until you drive a Kenworth
***** Until you break down on the side of the road
{ Funkyclown} yes i can believe that but i never drove one so i don't know the feeling
Mercedes comfortable? Until you drive a Renault
Your journey got me smiling from the start. It was a delight to see and enjoy the course as if i were in the backseat.
Looking for the next part.
It would have been nice if you learned to pronounce Södertälje...
That was cool man. Awesome to see someone that does all of that virtually give it a go in reality and do so well at it.
Just wondered if I could make a Instagram fan page devoted to you and your channel Paul, I'm asking because I would want you to be ok with it
I think it would bring an audience to your channel via Instagram
Thanks Paul
ScaleyBoy I already have an Instagram, I just haven't used it yet
I meant an fan page so I would post cool stuff about your YT and announce when a stream goes live stuff like that
That's a cool show you went to there. You should come to Mount Vernon, Washington and see the Paccar facility in April. Paccar is who builds the Kenworth and Peterbuilt trucks here in the U.S.
Volvo FH16 would eat this crap
bitch where
Ace Day Downhill?
Uphill...downhill...everywhere Volvo wins
Ace Day aha ok now come back to earth where there is gravity not the moon so you can fail in that up a hill
Bloody Brilliant - I wish I was there. I loved the trucks, but most of all the head cam - what a view, you can see everything wow. I'm off to watch part 2 now.
Second
that is by far some of the cleanest driving from a novice i have ever seen.It proves that ETS2 really is a true to life simulator.you should get your cat C and C+E licence!
worse graphics than euro truck simulator;)
I would have been scared shitless driving this with all that weight first go but the scania guy was very calm and a good instructor.
Everything as he spoke was cool and collected to make sure a first time driver wasn’t going to panic with all that weight
scanias look so ugly. next, go to Kenworth!
i like some of them but others look ugly
meh
Not personally a fan of the American truck looks. Too much chrome, also longnoses just plain dont work iny country.
kenworth and peterbilt pretty is an american DAF all 3 owned by PACCAR modern cabover petes and kennys share the same deaign as a DAF
meh, personally I do like the look of American trucks but scanias definitely aren't ugly
very beautiful edited Paul, never knew you where such a natural talent at real truck driving, looking forward to part 2 :)
Happy Trucking!!
8:00 Squirrel probably like "Yeah yeah, I should know that already, haha!" :D

Wow you did very well for a first time driver! Props for the perfect score on the test of the monster.
Great to see Squirrel driving a real Scania truck. Fascinating
Very well produced video, looks like you had a heap of fun. Can't wait for part 2!
Excelent footage Paul, maybe your best to date. Gotta say, when I saw it was automatic my heart sank. Then I found out you have a manual in pt2. Can't wait, keep up the good work. All the best. YOTS!!
I want that second part out very quick! Listen to me Squirrel! Quick!
I know I keep checking his channel every hour for it!
Thumbs up for the videos Squirrel, they are absolutely awesome. You are one hell of a lucky guy to get your hands on the R730, that's a beast of a truck. The muffled V8 just sounds as awesome as the straight pipes. Looking forward to part 3...
Fantastic video Paul, well done on the score. Waiting for part 2.
What a nice video Paul, love to see you driving the real thing :) And also very well edited and a great quality of your video. Thanks a lot!
Scania really makes some good looking vehicles don't they? Breathtaking. Well driven aswell, Paul!
I am so envying you right now. I can only imagine how much adrenaline there was driving the real thing straight from the simulator, which now proves that the simulator actually does give realistic experience. The more reason to continue on my ETS2.
Good video, this actually gives me a new appreciation for ETS 2 because of how closely it matches the real world trucks.
OMG this looks like so much fun! You are so lucky. can't wait for more of this.
Very nicely driven, Paul. Sounds like you were having a great time driving your first Scania. Looking forward to the next video.
Not so young european segway driver challenge? Good stuff though, those trucks are truly awesome. Was great being there and meeting you too!
Very cool, I love how much it sounded like ETS2 inside the cabin :)
Awesome video! More than I expected, cant wait for part2! :D
