I just posted mine in "Show your truck" but here it is as well.

What these screenshots don't show are the special rear tires - "SuperSingle & Wide Tires" for the rear wheels, the EU3 sound mod by [Slav Jerry, Alexa Swift, Kriechbaum and Almono] with added (by me) turbo sound which I simply borrowed from DAF.

With the EU3 mod now the Scania Streamline sounds like a real truck, not like a vacuum cleaner.

Before anyone asks why the high torque - it's not meant for racing. I made the truck 8x8 with this high torque in order to make it easy getting out of difficult (stuck) situations, such as a very low bed trailer getting stuck at the ground, especially when leaving (climbing) quarries and similar companies. Another reason for the high power is so that the truck can reach and maintain 90 km/h even with a 65 tons trailer. That torque combined with a 9-speed transmission (with and without retarder) which I made myself makes the truck the ultimate oversize cargo hauler. Think of it as the T-1000 of semi-trucks.
