      The fact it's so interesting first european trucks are have long nose for exemple , Scania Vabis as well , Man Diesel , Mercedes N series , Volvo , Renault , Iveco , Saurer , Tatra , SR Brașov the first romanian trucks , Gaz , Zis , Praga , Daf the older model's butt in conconcinece are still the normal truck's at Fiat Iveco , Daf , etc.

  • @connork5339
    @connork5339 5 років тому +11

    Very interesting explanation why the T Cab was discontinued. In North America the percentages were similar at the same time but reversed. Back then their were many cabovers sold in the 70's and less in the 80's. For a very long time now, no manufacturer sells cabovers in Canada or the US.

    • @williambolger5296
      @williambolger5296 5 років тому

      Interesting, I often wondered why the cabover no longer exists in the states. Length regulation has a lot to do with it in Europe also, need to have shorter trailers if tractor unit is longer -to keep within limits.

    • @karlosbricks2413
      @karlosbricks2413 5 років тому +1

      The main advantage of a T cab is the ease of maintenance as well as increased space in the cab, which in europe is overpowered by the advantage of a longer trailer a comparable cab-over can pull, whereas in the US your left with this single disadvantage and no advantage over it.
      sometimes a ''t cab'' design is also cheaper to buy/build

    • @ricardolopez5352
      @ricardolopez5352 5 років тому

  • @gm16v149
    @gm16v149 5 років тому +8

    We used to have that model T Series in Australia for a few years, but they dropped them for some reason, I think it was when their new R Series cabover was introduced.
    They were always tandem drive, manual transmission, factory right hand drive, and they’d generally have a bull bar and extra fuel tanks. They weren’t a high line either like in the video. A lot of them were in daycab configuration on tipper work, there’s still a few around, but I don’t know where the interstate ones went because you just don’t see them anymore.

    • @GeenIdee2

    A firm I worked for years ago got fined by the DOT/VOSA for pulling a 45 footer behind one of these..overlength by about 3 ft if I remember right..no wonder they disappeared off our roads, you were limited to pulling tankers or tippers with them.

    Opticruise always used to have the additional clutch pedal. That is not a "fancy item" or even rare... Scania offers the Opticruise without clutch pedal for about 6-7 years. Before there was nothing to choose...only with clutch pedal. Which was actually very good, especially in winters.

They currently are the only company in the World Still offering V8 Diesel Lorries.

Also in scandinavian countries v8s are really popular due to the rougher conditions.

A lot of People in the USA desire the Scania because even though it's Swedish; the idea of a V8 with Lots of Power is Traditionally very American. I tell people here all the time about French Cars (Renault, Peugeot and Citroen) as well as all the Euro Lorries (Mercedes-Benz and MAN) 🇩🇪, (Scania and Volvo) 🇸🇪, (IVECO) 🇮🇹, (Renault) 🇫🇷 and (DAF) 🇳🇱; they've never even heard of them.
