Scania Power.

Juzi I had to travel to Nai and back to LD in a span of 2 days so nikaona why not use a Scania for once. So nikabook Greenline executive, basi safi sana still very brand new. Now the thing that impressed me bana ni how that bus was chewing hills like nonsense. Ile milima naonanga ni steep ilikua inapita tu as if haiko. It was automatic so nilikua nashangaa very rarely would it drop more than one gear. Kwani hii vitu inatumia engine gani? Looks like iko na torque for days.

It is made from engine meant for heavy hauling. So bus huwa zinabeba kedo 4-5 tons hivi, hiyo ni featherweight.

So its a truck engine mated to a gearbox with less ratios?

Ogopa sana…sometime in 2018,one early morning saa tisa hivi on my way from Nyali to kanairo,one tahmeed scania gave me way at that kongowea market junction,i think ilikuwa imetoka mtwapa…wacha niseme tu tulifika Nairobi at the same time…guy was doing an average of 140 kph…Note…mi sikusimama mtito.

Izo bus ziko able kutoka Nairobi saa nne usiku zikuwe mombasa saa kumi asubuhi. Ile kitu imekosekana kenya ni bodybuilder anajielewa,

isnt it possible to ship them when fully assembled ama cost itakuwa manoki?

expensive sana

Greenlife executive has a 2 by 2 seats( 4/ row) or 1 by 1 by 1 seat(3/row) arrangement instead of the ordinary 3 by 2( 5/ row) meaning it’s carrying capacity is reduced by 13 pass.
Executive passengers huwa hawabebani na bulky luggages kama sofa sets, mabati, sacks of dry maize etc. So imeondokea 4 tonnes of goods.
Finally executives huwa mpya so coupled with 4 tonnes of load as compared to regular 10 tonnes, lazima ichune mwendo sasawa.

Waluhya husafiri na nyumba yote, utapatana na @Abba hapo Kangemi or @uwesmake in Ungwaro na makabati, waiting for those Mbukinya buses. Anyway, what happened to those Mercedes units that Climax buses invested in? I remember they moved away from MAN, what gives?

imported body is more expensive than the chassis.

When I was still a juvenile mafwi takataka, Scania pekee ndio nilikuwa natambua. Ungekula suplex had you suggested nipande Isuzu and such other ghaseer takataka. Siku hizi napandanga ile kitu nimepata mbele.

Haha. Ukizeeka hii vitu inakua of little importance ama nini mkubwa.

Boss unakuja vibaya

I thought ume blackout, when do you get high on your own stock?

Utapepetwa

Si ulalishe uzee?

I don’t fear you only Mike Tyson

Haha December hapo country bus…ni kama msee anahama nrb bana. Kila kitu ya nyumba inaekwa juu ya bus

Sweden Special ni bus ya eldoret express am sure kuna wadau wanaitambua. Those buses were something else

Kununua buses za mercedes kama hakuna bodybuilder anajua kazi yake ni kuwaste pesa, customer akiwa ndani haezi ona difference ya io bus na school bus za kawaida.
