Super big thanks to @Bruce_Wilson for bringing this truck by the shop and letting us check it out and even drive it down the road. This was a pretty cool experience!! - บันเทิง
The Scania "griffin" is the unofficial name for the griffin found on the Swedish Scania and Saab logos. The griffin head is taken from Skåne's regional coat of arms and Malmö's city coat of arms, which derive from Erik of Pomerania's coat of arms in 1437. Östergötland's regional coat of arms also depicts a griffin.
It's called a Griffin.
@@ThePatricHalldin translation from Wikipedia is not the best sometimes 🫣. I changed it now to griffin 🤝.
@@JimboLana It's an easy mistake to make. 😊
And Scania is the latin form of Skåne, the southernmost province, where Scania started. (Making bicycles I think.)
@@mellertid And Skåne used to belong to Denmark. Useless trivia: the most wars between countries is Sweden vs Denmark, 30 in total, and most of them over Skåne..
Wow,Is that truck from 1997?
imagine the technology that the Scania 2023 must have
2023 is a rocket ship to be honest
Its basically like driving a Mercedes s class of trucks the new ones.
I prefer driving Scania G320 than my 2018 golf. Thing is specced to the max.

I am driving Scania S500 Nextgeneration. It is another world :)
This one is 27 years old, imagine what a new one looks like.
Look up 2023 Scania S770 and the Scania T Cab( a long nose Scania)
Hover truck Scania, where we going we don't need roads
The scania 730 S and 730 R 😄😄
The main trucks that we have here in Europe would be Scania, Volvo, DAF, Renault, Mercedes, MAN, IVECO. The 2 fuel tanks would carry 1250litres between them 2023 Top spec Scania is the S770 16 litre V8 with 770bhp 3700nm
Recently there's Ford who entered the European truck market and we're seeing more and more of them. Also Scania and Man are in the same group as Volvo who owns Renault trucks.
@@p4olo537 never saw one... and if you want quality, buy never something made in the usa...
I saw one on the road today funny enough. In the uk but was a euro truck. Didn’t catch the plates. They are very rare though. I’ve only seen a handful
@@p4olo537 scania and man are members of vw groep
The lift axel is awesome to lift when you driving upphill in the winter. if it begins to spinn lift the axel and the drive axel get more weight on it and better grip.
You said it. Americans don't understand that. I have tried to explain that also but they don't get it. They think that more axels more grip LOL.
Is it possible to import, for example, a newer Scania like this and transfer it to American license plates and drive legally? {although I know that the US government considers these trucks unsafe)
@@tcb1017yep, just like skinny tires for ice/snow
So fun to see you being so impressed by a 25-year-old Scania, hope you someday have the opportunity to visit Europe and test drive a new modern Scania, know that many truck drivers in America like old school with simple technology and unsynchronized gearboxes "because it should be like that in America" but with your hand on your heart, you still have to admit that even a 2023 American truck is hopelessly out of date, I like the look of many American trucks but think there is way too much chrome on them and that makes them look older than they are....have also never understood why the cabins are a patchwork of sheet metal pieces that are riveted together?
found this video because i follow bruce and now i have another channel to watch thanks
It's the same reason Harley Davidson motorcycles still look like they did 50 years ago. It may not be the most modern thing to build, but it works and has a classic appeal.
I imagine the "patchwork" body panels are to allow for more shared sheet metal between different and custom cab configurations.
It’s much less expensive to create bodywork from riveted sheets than create large tooling for large panels. And easier to repair. Looks 50 years out of date though.
@@Dreynomegacasting is much cheper to manufactur, but expansiv to repair.
@@urbaneriksson9781 The tooling is not cheaper to make. It just makes putting them together faster. Spare parts and/or bodywork repairs are also very expensive.
. @urbaneriksson9781
uumm.. most of the chassis plates on Scania today are made out of harden plastic. Super easy to replace due to light weight, and European trucks is all about saving weight, that way you can have beefy aksels, wheels and big engines, but they still have less weight vs US trucks
In europe you are required by law to mount atleast 16 V8 emblems to your Scania
😅😂😂😂😂😂😂
You'll never be late in a v8
Heavy Equipment Chicago has a 143H T type Scania. Hauls mostly heavy equipment on a float. Look up Scania 143H-420 Lowboy Hauler. Deadly video of the drive pulling away loaded. There is also a construction company in NYC that has a small fleet of cabover Scania's hauling equipment IN the city itself.
T143H
Scanias are like Peterbilt to Americans. Scanias are the kings of the road in Europe. 🔥🔥🔥
Volvo
@@bryankibet1587 Definitely not
@@bryankibet1587 🤣
Scania makes any American truck look like junk
@@stark3855 Yeah okay 🤦🏾♂️😂😂
These trucks are infinitely better than any American truck, I am from Mexico, I used to have a t800 with an ISX and an 18 speed box, now I have a Scania V8 R620hp next gen. I humiliate all American trucks, it makes them look like junk, I go with 60/70 tons. I don't want another American truck or a drunk.
Are they that much better? Technically they are certainly next generation but I don't know whether it's better to drive a Scania with the short wheelbases through the Nevada desert at 135 kmh. But I also don't want to have to drive through the Bavarian villages with the most beautiful Pete. And in full stop traffic jams on the Autobahn, both are probably equally good.
P.S. But ours are better at stop and go, because our cruise control has a stop and go mode. You can read the newspaper than.
@@PropperNaughtyGeezer The stability is impressive friend, even in a 4x2, they have nothing to do with what we Americans are used to, in my case, my Scania is a 6x4, it is much more stable than a Pete, aesthetically it depends on taste, really at the level In terms of design work, the European truck is in another league, the adjustments are impressive, you just have to look at the small details to see to what extent the trucks take care of themselves, in traffic the European ones are also better, for example the Mercedes in Europe detect you Even the type of curve, you tell the truck at what speed you want to do it and it automatically adapts the speed, they detect pedestrians, cyclists... They have everything
@@PropperNaughtyGeezerYes, they are that much better. I grew up around truck mechanics (father was a Scania salesman) and when they went to the states, they were amazed at how old fashioned and underpowered most of the rigs were. They had always admired the long nosed American trucks on television but seeing them in reality was a major disappointment. They all concluded that a Scania, Volvo, Daf, Mercedes, Renault, Mann etc. were all better than anything over there. Both in terms of tech, power, economy, ergonomics etc. The only thing they liked (apart from the look) was the flat floor in the cab.
@@PropperNaughtyGeezeryes its bad to have the short wheelbase 390 cm. If you have a hevy load it's instable especially downhill and bad roads.
Have you driven it across the other side from the Rio Grande River Texas or San Diego Tijuana(📺 term TJ) since Scania trucks in Mexico would have dual license plates one Mexico the other from Texas Arizona New Mexico and California ZP Power Unit plate Apportioned meaning they are used to cross the border.
Lift axle is too save fuel. But I'm Scandinavië; it's to increase the pressure on the drive axle to push through snow and ice for traction. Germany, The Netherlands, France have the first rear axle as lift axle usually. Not the last rear.
I liked Tommy's trucking industry insight. fewer axles on the road makes for MUCH better fuel mileage. You can feel the extra power when you pick up the tag. European trucks have done this for decades for that reason. Also keeps turning circle and tire scrubbing down. Here in the US that may not matter as much since there is so much more space for bigger trucks, but in Europe you definitely want that.
Europeans are doing it because they're limited with length and the axle load limits are high enough for 4x2. When you see a 6x2 tractor it means that country has higher weight limit for that combination altough you can lift the tag up when you're empty.
@@sic22l it's also a winter thing, you release the pressure on the tag slightly and add more weight on the drive axle to get better grip.
Is it possible to import, for example, a newer Scania like this and transfer it to American license plates and drive legally? {although I know that the US government considers these trucks unsafe)
@@DanielHernandez-eq7su No. What do you mean tarnsfer to American license plates? From where? When you import one to the US you have to register it from scratch and if it's not 25 years old you won;t be able to cross the border in the first place (unless you have some kind of permit). It has nothing to do with safety, its' pure market protectionism.
@@sic22l Since I watched videos of Americans bringing Scanias, I figured out why someone would bring a truck from Europe to just look at it, normally I want to import it to the USA and drive it like any other truck, but that's not possible, unfortunately.I have a great desire to drive a legal Scania on American roads, but it doesn't seem possible.
I hope Bruce will test to pull a really heavy trailer whit it before e tears it apart and change something, just fix the high and low range. As a Swede I'm familiar whit these and I can guarantee you'll be impressed how good it pulls, the liftaxel will give many advantages against american trucks whit the grip you get, unloaded it'll make all the difference plus whit that steering angle in the frontaxel, when you lift it you'll be able to take corners that still no american truck have ever managed. And if he got the retarder working I'm very confident that we whont see this Scania on a runaway ramp anywhere around because of brake fading.
I might sound cocky I know, but you'd see for yourself if you actually tested it.
A danish guy took recently his Scania 770 (load included eg. small house, car etc) and drove across USA. Its on TH-cam, search for Max Hunt Scania USA .
The Scania it limited to 80 kp/h but it does that uphill as well with that beast of an enigne overtaken virtually all the american trucks that overpasses him in the valleys.
*90 Km/h
Saw the video series you're mentioning, guy is mostly talking to the camera and we don't get much reaction and/or discussion with locals which is a shame , unless i missed something
@@mentalstamina92 there's a discussion with the Abreu, and reactions throughout the series but not much.
@@mentalstamina92 you missed a lot probably because you and I assume here you don't speak the language.
As I understand it, Bruce is actually going to meet to with the danish guy (Max Hunx) when he travelles to Finland to visit a Scania factory.
The rear axle is spec at 13 metric tonnes, like 24-25k lbs, but not an issue to load above 20 tonnes for take offs or going up mountains in slippery conditions.
That European Semi is really cool
Excellent ! ! ! ...... really enjoyed watching you guys driving one of our European trucks ...... Regards from England.
So, all of a sudden you're part of Europe again? Make up your mind :D
@@dan_kay Many European manufactured trucks are operating in the UK ... maybe I should have omitted 'our' in my comment ... thanks for the reminder 'friend' ... let's just stick to interest in trucks on this channel.
@@dan_kay europe and eu are 2 completely different things
If you could make the new blue paint look like the plush fabric in the door panel - that would look cool.
Larger fuel tanks mean that you're less likely to run out of fuel waiting for days at border crossings and in line at ferry crossings. Both are very likely in Eastern Europe... Good luck, Bruce! Maybe we'll see new cabovers on U.S. roads soon...😊
And Dover.
also that but more for export setup, this way they can keep going to the place with cheapest fuel.
The fuel tanks is 2x700 litres that mins total 1400 litres of fuel and medium comsuption is 33 -35 litres/100 km with 40 tones weight that mins 4200 kilometers range
I'm not very good at English so I use google translate. Scania means Skåne in Latin. Skåne is a region in Sweden where the Scania brand was once founded. The "bird" in the logo is a griffin and is also found in Scania's regional flag

My CLT9000 had cab air ride and it rode like a dream.
You sold it ?
Long story. Ford bought it back and sold me a brand new LTA9000 from the factory.
Those v8s are superb as timber trucks. Drove the 141 and the older 110 (11 liter straight 6, 671 cubic inch).
Search SCANIA timber trucks. They can handle most conditions. Usually gravel roads and tight spaces.
I remember seeing a Scania 3 series a few times. We actually used to get them briefly until Scania decided to stop importing them. I think it was due to low sales. They are incredibly rare to see here and it's a shame we don't get a conventional version for the US. They used to make a T cab that was a set back fromt axle. However a long hood Scania for North America would be kinda cool to see.
You still get T cabs bran new in Europe
Thay aren't as common as the cab over because of ar road system
@@jailee5925 not directly from the factory, they are custom conversions.
@@jailee5925 Scania completely stopped the production of the T-model in 2005, until a Dutch design office took over the design of the model, and was born again. The same office has designed the new Volvo VT5 model.
I owned one in CA. a 1986 T 112. Great truck, Scania did a lot of mistakes trying to sell them in the US but that's another story.
The Europeans are masters of cab-over-engine, if you want a modern cab, then glider manufacturers should be able to build one for the right price.
Classic configuration is custom built in Europe so if you want the greateness of Scania without paying extra, then is got to be CoE.
It's the same basic engine as the old Mack E9, the current one makes 770hp. We've got 2 current model V8 Scanias, one on heavy haul and the other a 4 axle heavy wrecker. They are beasts. And so comfortable with full air suspension, air ride cab and air ride seats. But ours are only 630hp, with 12+2 automated transmissions.
LOL no. Actually the mack v8s were scanias with another name, a Spanish engineer who worked on its development told the whole story, there is a lot of ignorance about it, the only thing mack really did was put up the money, over time they developed, in the series 4 the difference is already considerable, saying that it is like a mack E8 is a crime
The current engine (DC16) is completely different beast compared to DSC14 and E9.
If both tanks are biggest, what seems to be, its 750 liter per tank ( around 200gal) if you take these cover on tank off, you will see a size of tank on it near fuel sender unit.
That cabin model is called "Topline"
Bruce: The "handle" on the dash in the red Scania is the parking brake, not the retarder, hence why it's slamming you into the dash, haven't driven a Scania this old so I might be mistaken, but slightly newer Scanias have an exhaust brake on a sort of nipple on the floor next to the clutch pedal, not all of them are fitted with a retarder, my 2021 has a 2 stage exhaust brake and no retarder.
This model has jake brake when you slightly press brake pedal, there's switch controlling that. And yes handle is parking brake. This have air system so that if you loose air so brakes are on, with air they are released
And also another handle is trailer brake
@@kallek771 My 420 V8 had the retarder on the handle just below the ventilation. I think there was a small pushbutton on the tip.
The single handle on the flatter dash is the parking brake. It does not seem to have a trailer brake ? The old types were banned in Denmark back in the 80ties, ( but new types have come in the last decade. )
On 40 year old scanias the trailerbrake was next to the parking brake.
Imagine heading down a tennessee back road and you see a Scania, i would think i was high lol
I saw Bruce's video first but I'm like you guys that to be a 97 model is just awesome.
Hopefully one day you guys find one scania for sale and maybe do your personal touches! Great video!
Missing high/low range is probably just a broken solenoid, happens with scania.
the solenoid valve, a very common fault in Scania, is located at the rear end of the gearbox.also check that the electric current is coming to the solenoid ,sometimes the connector is broken.
I don’t know if you guys are familiar with Guy Martin, he’s a British semi truck mechanic but also a former TT / motorcycle road racer and has done a load of great TV shows too (as well as stuff on his TH-cam channel). Really down to earth bloke that loves his engines
It's funny that Bruce said this is going on the "chopping block" 😂😂😂😂
Keep this beast european style,dnt screw this machine.
I like how you guys smile all the time. So do I, cause I used to drive a Scania V8 25 years ago. And the sound is just right. The cabfloat is also right. I just need 26 tons on the back to get the deep rooar and the high whistle from the Turbo
Great video, great Truck, Greetings vom Germany....
Gotta love to sound of them V8 Scania trucks. They sound so awesome.
Oh and 400 US gallons is roughly 1515 litres
the ''suede'' opolstry is actualy called danish pluche and is common in european trucks for making it more homely availible in many coloures and styles
there's a scania here in jamaica; only one in the country. It's only a R370 though but man these trucks are like lamborghinis for the road. Loved them from playing ETS2 and hering the V8 crackle for the first time
Un seul ?? .... sérieusement ?? 😮
Scania,the Koenigsegg of trucks!!! Sofisticated,high tech and very powerful! Now days I think the biggest Scania has 750 hp?!
It is a Griffin, it is the coat of Armour of Scania, Scania is the most south region in Sweden where Scania started in the city of Malmö.
i was thinking that , Bruce Wilson should use it to pull his new Rv around. it would be ideal for that and two forms of comfort too. 👈👺👀👀👍
putting the back axel up also helps with turning,
its a win win situation...
the street doesnt get as much stress on it, and the tires too xD
UK King of the road
If you think those bumps are bad you should see the "bump" part and offroad part Scania has on thier testtrack here in Sweden. Scania has done some extrem testning on all their trucks since the 1960s and they still do. During development they literally test the trucks untill they brake to find out what needs to improve.
When I served in the army (2004-2005) I drove an offroad Scania truck produced in the 70s. Back then those trucks where 30 years old beeing driven by young soldiers offroad and we where not gentle with them. Trust me we tried to break them and failed. I know that there are still those trucks in aktiv service becouse they will not break down. We sent a brunch of them to Ukraine and they love them. So 50 year old truck that still gets the job done is pretty good.
You should come to Scania Demo Center in Södertälje Sweden and try out what's on offer today.
The sries started with the 140, later on the 141 (lower rev, higher torque. Drove one of those in the 80s), then the 142, 143, and last 144. Nowdays it is 16 (976 cubic inch) liter and named 160-series. The one presented is 14 liter (about 854 cubic inch)
It a few ppl in New England (USA) that has several of these Scania Trks for many yrs
Anyone with a TH-cam channel?
I so enjoy these SCANIA videos 🙂
Love the Series 4 it's rocksolid.
Part of the difference you are noticing about placement on the road, is that the Scania cab is full width all the way, while conventionals have a much more narrow "driver cabin".
To see the engine, there is a hydraulic system to pop the cab forward. Just put gearstick in neutral and there is a hydraulic jack built in. Pump is manual and you only need a metal tube of the right size to get it going.
They actually have an engine brake despite the retarder. This is a regulation in the EU. Engine brake is a must, retarder is optional.
The amount of respect for the truck
The mythical animal in the SCANIA logo...is a GRIFFIN ...and has always been ;)
The style of the doorpanel is called 'grandessa blue' in the Netherlands
2:00 No !!
It’s called “Gripen” / “Griffin” and it’s Scania’s logo and also the county of Skåne’s logo in southern Sweden.
Scania’s origin is from Malmö , where Scania is born.
If it's so good... give away Brutis!
400 Gallons are around 1.514 Liter,. You have to use a loaded trailer to get the real SCANIA sound ;-).You have to see the SCANIA's at truck races (you have to clap the smile out of a face)
Solo you start from 2 or 3 gear. Then every second gear to top. For example 2 4 6 8 12.
Talking about offroading, you should check out Dakar rally trucks, specifically old ones before they moved to South America, you will be amazed 😁
Now will you guys add a 4 way air bags on a pete with sway bars?
I live in otterville. Use to always see it running down the road
I really hope that someone will discover, that Scania used to be SAAB-SCANIA and it is almost pure luck, that they (SCANIA) still exists today. It is pure engineering, and they don't compromise when it comes to safety or anything else. that is also why I am still driving a SAAB today. I also have a Volvo XC70 ((2009) when I want to go offroad.
Which do you think is better having the spot mirror on the top or the bottom?
The Holden badge, is a griffin which is the coat of arms of the most southern province in Sweden called.. Scania. Or as we say, Skåne, Scania was founded as a bicycle company in Malmö (the biggest town in Scania).
You need to get more people driving Scania’s , you have the opportunity to be the importer of cab over Volvo and scania into the U.S . Once people realise how good European trucks are , you could be a very popular truck dealer .
So now you may understand why we in Scandinavia shake our heads at Ice Road Truckers. This old Scania will have no problem working in northern Canada or Alaska, and if you struggle, step up and buy a Volvo.
That Truck is at least 25 years old, it’s ancient by european standards and are not really used any more.
We had retarders like this 50 years ago in American trucks. It was called a Brake Saver
Yep - Cat had them; they worked on the same principle
Different placement though, Cat's brake saver installed in the crankshaft while european retarder installed inside the gearbox right after the output shaft.
the scania one is more effective at low engine rpm as it takes advantage of the lower gearing in the transmission.
I have driven Kenworths for years. K100 to K220. SAR etc Cummins 620, Cat 200. I NEVER want to drive another one!! Every year same old shit. Uncomfortable, noisy, blah blah. I am a convert to Scania V8 770HP. Quiet, very comfortable, auto box light years ahead of anything American. I am a New Zealander. We haul B Double (B train) up to 60 tons of really narrow ,hilly roads. Go Scania!!
When the swedes build something, it´s world class.
You are aware Scania is owned by the VAG group (i.e. German) nowadays? It's just as Swedish as DAF is Dutch 😅
@@pecheur1951 Who designs these trucks, i know you don´t
There were some guys leased to Fed Ex Ground that drive them back in the 1990’s
The logo is what's called a Grip in Swedish (same as the Swedish built fighter plane SAAB Gripen). In English it´s called griffin (I think), it´s a legendary creature... Holden was an Australian car manufacturer that also used a Griffin in their logo.
I think the Griffin is right word/name in this case. Saab made special models called Griffin back in the day. The griffin comes from Scania as it is from Skånes arms. But stayed in Saabs logo after parted ways.
Scania is the latin name for the "state" in Sweden where the company was founded. I used to work in their plant where we assembled the transmissions for these trucks.
You have to be confident in your driver to bunk in the top bunk, with only 13'2" of clearance, you'll be the first to find the lower bridges in the accident.
I've been watching these Trucks in videos and magazines for years Scania and Mercedes have made some beautiful cabovers Volkswagen also produces the Constellation in Brazil I'm not sure if it's any good but it's their flagship model.
I forgot to mention MAN Trucks .
MAN
@@dirklehrke6710
Thank you for the correction in the spelling
Of Man trucks
Maschinenfabrik Augsburg Nürnberg
Volkswagen owns Scania
you should see some of the custom Scanias!
LTL FORD Cabovers are the same..... with airide seat neway air suspension..... they were tricky to drive....
Its a 4 series top line cab aye hope he puts dubil drive back ends on it
FOR BRUCE...... Sorry Bruce, I'd say that truck has done the clock plus 700,000 miles, at this stage. There's younger ones of these in Ireland, that have 1,000,000 on the clock, and still driving. To be honest a truck this old would rarely be seen on the road in Ireland, other than at truck shows. Total rebuild ahead for you 🙂
It looks like a 620 Liter diesel tank on that Scania They can also be larger up to 1200 litres
620 liters = 163.786672 gallons
Scania R 450 an average consumption of 23.7 liters per 100 km - or 4.22 km per litres, such calculations always have to be done on a small scale. It also depends entirely on driving style and how aggressive the driver is .. the dimensions of a 700 liter tank in cm
(length) 165 cm x (width) 70 cm x (height) 67 cm
Centimeters 3 cm = Inches 1.1811 in
7:12 I think you should do a paint job that looks similar to the blue thing in the door. Instead of flat blue, go with metal flakes and frost-like pattern all over the truck.
Europe doesn't have small roads any more than every other country on Earth. USA has absurdly wide roads because you dont have any public transportation. You don't get ANYWHERE faster with 10 lane highways. They exist because there are too many cars lol
Flip it forward, flip it forward, flip it forward.
The new Peterbilt trucks look very modern to these days . Like to see a comparison to a new European truck and a new US truck.
There’s no comparison. This Scania is almost 20 years out of production. The new ones are far more advanced. Peterbilt aren’t in the same league.
@@Dreynoyou must kidding right?
@@maxmurphy7306 Why would I be kidding? Is it inconceivable to you that Peterbilt aren’t anywhere near the best trucks in the world. Because they’re not. Not even close.
As someone stuck in a 13 letter shee-it spreader, I’m jealous. Scanias are cool
Old school. Now all are DCT gearboxes and cameras/displays istead of mirrors. You can see the whole rig from above on your screen.
Update - some use cameras instead of mirrors.
Scania doesn't use cameras
@@Ryan-uh9le Thx for the correction.
Right, don't even try to convert gallons to liters since one liter is the same everywhere while one gallon isn't.
Scania every dream of European trucker
It get 6 mpg. Same mpg as the 1970s. The more it changes, the more it stays the same.
I can't imagine how HARD the suspensions must be on your trucks in the USA
because the Scania 4 in Europe is rather famous for its hard suspension, and jumps over holes
I am curious how you would drive a European VOLVO or DAF
In general it is a very good car. one of the better models of Scania. Especially the V engines and inline6 witch PDE injectors
Scania offers 770 hp.
The worlds most powerful production truckengine.
My dad had a renault with a mack v8 and lord was it comfy it lulled me to sleep on many occaisions
Was it complicated to import?
The birds are the Griffin, Scanias symbol. It is also the symbol of both the county Södermanland, where Scania is located (city Södertälje). Scania is what county Skåne is called in Latin, and a part of Scania was from Skåne County, and they also use the Griffin as a symbol
Scania is from Skåne and united forces vid Vabis from Södertälje. As Scanias back in the day was Scania-Vabis. That collaboration decided to concentrate everything in Södertälje. I think the Södermanland griffin is more of a coincidence.
I have not driven a manual transmission for over 20 years, you have to pay more for a manual transmission ( quite a lot more) so almost all trucks are automatic now you should check out a new scania way more efficient and comfortable.
I enjoy that next model after 2001-> more, mainly because of those sounds.
I'll put a sample here from another video. The difference between these is the valves, one has aluminum and the other steel.

Bruce in 22:05 got me laugh..😂
they plate up to 120 long tons (2240 Lb per ton)
