Shortly after I covered the oil truck company in Massachusetts that continues to run a 1988 SCANIA 112H, I received two more photos from yet another company in Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts that run two of them!!

agm_300.jpgWhile I have not received a review from them at this time, I have received two incredible photographs! A company that runs some SCANIA’s from this vintage, older than the rest of their fleet is a true testimony to a company that continues to build a quality product.

SCANIA as you may know, has also built many of the Saab Automobile engines from the early eighties until very recently with the Saab 9-5 2.3 engine at the Sodertalje factory which was sold last year by GM Europe.

I would really like to know how many other companies in not only the North East, but in the United States, still have these SCANIA trucks. I am sure the numbers are not too great, but I’d still like to learn more about this especially since SCANIA stopped importing their trucks since 1994.

    Ryan Hi,

    When I used to travel in my Saab, all over Wisconsin, I saw Scania buses regularly, in Madison, after they were released on the market. I will make inquiries, as I am not visiting there, like I used to.

    Also Indinanapolis used to be a big Scania parts hub, for the Mid-West.

    Hi Guys, I may be able to help if you still are looking for more Scania Trucks in the US. I have worked for Scania in Denmark, Sweden and Orange CT as well as for TruckCenter NorthHaven when they where a Scania dealer. I have relocated in March 2009 to Denmark but have many contacts in the US to old customers with Scanias. Lets not forget our Scania dragrace truck where we won the 2 national races in English Town NJ in 1990 and 1991 Class AA.

      Wow! 10 Scanias. That’s awesome.

      We have six with the 6 cylinder and one with a 500hp V8. We have 2 dump trucks, 2 tractors, 2 boom trucks, and a parts unit.

      We use Telmo for parts, too.

        guys can you explain to me is that problems with parts and that is sometimes problem to get some part ?

        @scania fan are you from TRMA waste hauling? they have one 143 500

        and can you explain to me where you get v8

        as much i found out few of v8 T dump trucks were imported in to CT in late of 80s as experimental trucks

        and Telmo replace their engines to other trucks

        i find a video of one 113 400 turbocompound dump truck so this engine is imported , so are you using engines from europe or they are from US
