These 6X6 Scanias were originally built for the swedish army in the early 60s. They proved to be so sturdy, that many of them were still sufficiently sound to warrant a full overhaul in the early 1980s and this meant, that many still survive to this date.

This particular truck was imported to Denmark in 2012 and is used by new owner Dansk Studenterkørsel, for a long standing danish tradition: transporting graduating students around town, visiting attractions and every home of the students... while drinking like crazy.

According to the swedish vehicle registry, this truck was last retired from service there in 2004.

Tip: to locate trucks of particular interest to you, check my collections page, "truck collection" - here you will find all trucks organized in albums, by haulier (with zip-codes), year, brand and country.

Retirement age for trucks: many used trucks are offered for sale on international markets. If sold to a foreign buyer, this will not be listed in the danish motor registry, so a "retired" truck may or may not have been exported. In other words, the "retirement age" only shows the age, at which the truck stopped running on danish license plates.
