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.
