Scania Trucks

[louixo]

I´m taking some time off to enjoy the sun and R%R. I was recently driving south of the border while vacationing, in Mexico and I saw alot of Scania trucks.Most I saw were tractors, but some looked like class 7 applications. Nice looking rigs, and they also obviously make busses too. I had seen a few in the USA but not many. Does anybody know anything about these rigs? I´m also going ot post this on Truck Talk. Also I saw quite a few DINA trucks which look identical to an International, and probably are Internationals.

I believe Scania's are made in Holland or Sweden. Back in the 80's when I lived in Northern NJ there used to be a lot of them around the NYC area. I had a Mercedes Benz unit and the dealer also sold Scania's.

You'll also tend to see some Scania's in Eastern Canada, in Quebec especially. They use them extensively in European countries, over there Scania is like Freightliner or KW over there... they're popular over there.

I spent 3 months in Germany. They are all over the place. Only saw cabovers though.
