I grew up riding in my dad's truck and have a special affection for Scania. The brand originates from Södertälje, Sweden, where they've been building vehicles since 1891. Today, the area still houses massive assembly plants and R&D centers. But with globalization, they now have production lines in the Netherlands, France, and Poland, with the São Paulo factory in South America running at full capacity—even India has assembly bases. European truck drivers all know that engines from the Swedish factory are the toughest, as Nordic craftsmanship, though more expensive, is reliable. If you visit Sweden, you can even sign up for a factory tour.
