Today we’re doing a side-by-side walkaround of two legendary trucks from 1997 — a classic American Peterbilt 379 and my personal Scania 144G V8. We didn’t take them out on the road this time, but we parked them next to each other for a detailed comparison of the exterior design, interiors, features, and overall styling differences between old-school American long hood muscle and European cabover engineering.

Both of these rigs represent the best of their time — but they couldn’t be more different. From transmission setups to driver comfort and design language, we break down how each truck stands apart. Whether you’re a die-hard Peterbilt fan or curious about Scania’s V8 cabovers, this is the kind of head-to-head truck content you won’t want to miss.

Let me know in the comments — which one are you driving home?
