Did you ever think about doing vlogs while doing your daily runs? Il love it and iam sure others will do

"I managed to tie it up with a cable tie" (Readjustable) cable ties are the single most useful piece of equipment a driver can carry. Saved my bacon so many times.

I would take a American truck for room but the high ceiling of European trucks are kind of nice I think. I wish Scania come to the US one day. I think there still is a niche market for cabovers in some areas. Especially companies that regularly drive in compact areas such as large cities.

@@DontUputThatEvilOnMe I think they'd be very popular for either city deliveries and/or very heavy haulers. Over here, in Sweden the only brands used for lumber, excavation or transport of heavy machinery, is Scania or Volvo. You'll never see an Iveco or Daf hauling lumber, nor with a hook behind the cab for asphalt tubs and gravel beds. I've ever only seen one MAN lumber truck and it was a TGX-35-640. If you need power, Scania and Volvo will always have what you need.

Your videos are very dynamic and its good to see a very original v8 like this, congrats from Brazil !!

I don´t even have a commercial driver's license, and don´t know much about trucks, but I watch your videos before I go to bed, because they are so relaxing and make me tired lol. Anyway peace and have a nice day Stavros.

I just got my first job on one of those, gonna be haulin fish across Iceland. Thanks for the tour!

After the Actros, The R is my favourite truck of all time. So envious you get to spend every day in one of these :)

Nice clean truck inside and out, very well kept sir! 👍

jeeeeeeeeeeeesus, that thing is spotless inside, and it's a 14 plate :O the 58 plates that i saw in my company are disgusting inside, even the rental 19 plate we had for 2 weeks. very very nice done keeping it clean

SCANIA - Awsome engineering..love it

Very nice! I do love Scania R Streamline!

That is a beast of an engine Stavros...!!! 💪🚛

Nice looking prime mover. Less (bling) is always more when it comes to a working vehicle. I've had a chance to do a days work in a new shape R500 and you're correct, the auto shift has been quickened up quite a bit, (and the steering lightened). Where I live in SE Queensland, Australia, the G500 is becoming very popular and I see more of them on the road as the weeks go by.

I knew a driver once upon a time, the dipstick wouldn't reach the oil so he got a longer one😂. Nice truck Stavros👍

I really love your KZread channel ....I watch the video every day....

really nice truck my friend. I like the silver and blue. Love the originality also.

Stavros I'm loving your truck I prefer that type of truck to my one even soldered new Scania V8 s730 series is good I still have the old Scania pal

Stavros . You're getting ready for your new truck , I reckon .!!!

Once again nice video Stavros! For 600K miles! that is one mint truck,gold in Africa. I had a Scania 124L 420 HP DC 12 with Electronic diesel control 6 by 2 tag axle..3 over 3 gearbox GRS 900 Very hardy engines these ones,easily clocking 2M kilometres Lots of appreciation from Kenya!. Kindly do a video of an Actros 2544/2546 Mp3...or the Actros 2545 Mp4 full auto straight 6 engine please

For a 2014 the truck still looks good and sounds great.

I was thinking of post poning this, until I saw the daily driver... So you really got me curious on this very... "Mundane" truck :D

Great Video It would be great to see a day in the life of you working

Hey Stavros, really great to finally see your daily truck! Also I noticed you have a Monaco plate in the windshield, have you ever driven your truck there? What's the longest journey you've made?

Nice to see your daily drive mate... I really enjoy your content, always well delivered & edited... Hope you don't mind me asking but what cameras do you use? Btw, Cable ties have got me out of trouble many a time... 😊👍

Interesting to see your office

Nice and clean R560. Stravos i like too see a video about a Volvo F16 from the late 80,s or early 90,s

Nice video👍

Awesome Truck like Scania...

Awesome video

Hey hi Stavros, like the videos, how about coming down to Australia come and see, test drive what we do .. Roadtrain type 1 and triple Roadtrain over 120t love to have you do a video down under in the outback 😁

Always cool to see the Euro trucks! We definitely need to do a comparison/collaboration video sometime!!!

what you mean his steering wheel spinner knob? They're great if you do a lot of low speed maneuvering but really and truly shouldn't be used at road speeds for safety reasons. We have one on our old JD tractor and it is great for that kind of purpose. Also have one on my pickup since I carry mail in that truck and have to reach across from the passenger side to the driver side to steer. Makes that kind of work much easier. Would never use one while operating in normal conditions though

Enjoy watching your youtube channel. I feel like want to change my job to be a truck driver like you^^

nice to see on road

Awsome vid stavros and i like your truck👍

i like youre videos.. you are good man

R560 driver here to✌️ 8" double stacks and a straight pipe make it purr pretty awesome

I drive a Volvo B7RLE (bus) 7litre engine. Gets about 6-7mpg round town. Only 270bhp. Same thing with the retarder though. Coming down a bumpy hill and it will kill the retarder. Gives you a bit of a surprise sometimes because you have to get on the brakes!

Nice truck Stavros. It’s a pity you can’t bring the phone book up in the cluster if you have a Premium Radio. Seems you can with the smaller radios with Bluetooth.

CHEERS!!!!!

You can also use that bottom step on the front as a bench

Heading for cork direction

Hi Stavropol, liked review of the truck. Does this engine consume oil? In how many kilometres do you change oil?

Great video as usual stavros. I have to disagree with you on the gearbox choice. Much prefer a manual gearbox myself

beautifull video /// great

Good day Stavros. Nice truck bro, ya keep her well. Have a good one. Respct.

Currently driving a '12 Volvo FH 500 tipping truck (mass transport for concrete factories) and came from a company running Scania 450s ('12 and newer)(grocery distribution locally) and seeing this one really made me miss the Scanias... From the last generation of trucks, Scanias just have a nicer instrument panel and buttons. The '12 volvo's buttons looks like they're made for a toy. I realize they're easy to read and so they're good for fast operation, but I still think they look stupid.

What truck were you driving before this one?

Hello Stavros and greetings from Trinidad, WI. Thoroughly enjoy your videos. At 11:50, you note that the v8 isn’t quite what she once was. For a relatively derated engine, is this normal, especially after less than 375,000miles and no abnormally heavy hauls? All the best, do keep safe.

so which of the storms we've gotten recently were you driving through?

Are steering knobs legal there? In Finland they are illegal but quite many uses them

How do you find the time to do so many vids while holding down a full time job. We will be stavros spotting from now on.

What is your daily truck run for delivering or is it just random

can i ask, what program you use to edit your videos :) ?

The issue with the retarder going off is a safety thing thats tied into the anit lock brakes and stability control. When you hit a big enough bump with the retarder or engine brake on, and especially when wet pavement, the wheel will skid since it drastically slowed down from losing grip or even road contact for that brief moment. So the truck senses that and kills the retarder or engine brake to prevent a skid or jack knife. I know our american trucks will do that and I believe for us its tied with the ABS system.

Cool truck you drive😊 Im planning to take truck licence this year. Looking forward to drive trucks😊 / Mattias from sweden.

what is the maximum payload can be train by this truck?

Hey Stavros, great channel sir. I am curious... Do you get and shoulder drop on those super singles? More than you would on a standard Tyre?

@tntfreddan3138

Жыл бұрын

I drive 385/55r22.5 tires in the front and I can tell you that you'll have just as many shoulder drops as with 315/70r22.5, regular tires, but it makes the truck more stable and you'll generally have to make fewer corrections. They are more expensive, though, so that's a trade-off. But one well worth it.

Do u do many nights out mate. Lovely truck.

About the retarder and the bumps it must be the abs, my r480 did the same and i notised it used to do it in the wet conditions. When it got slipery and the wheels started to lock up it desabled the retarder

@gerardhermitage8287

yep I agree, I used to have this issue regularly when I was still at work, on rough roads or in wet conditions the ABS sensed lock up and disengaged the retarder
