This Scania R650 6x4 FTG V is a used timber truck — sometimes referred to as a log truck — built for the demanding work of hauling raw timber from forest to mill. Timber trucks of this type are purpose-configured heavy vehicles designed to carry large volumes of felled logs over long distances, often on challenging terrain, and are a cornerstone of the commercial forestry and wood-products supply chain. Scania is a Swedish manufacturer with a long-standing reputation for heavy commercial trucks and is widely respected across the transport, construction, and forestry industries in Europe and beyond.
This 2020 example is offered in very good condition from Tvedestrand, Norway, and is reported to have had a single owner. It has covered 445,000 kilometres and is described as ready to work. The truck is equipped with a crane manufactured by FTG, making it a self-loading unit capable of handling logs without the need for additional loading equipment at the site.
Power comes from a 478 kW (650 hp) engine meeting the Euro 6 emissions standard. The suspension is air-sprung on both the front and rear axles, and the drivetrain includes a retarder for controlled braking on descents — a particularly important feature in forestry operations involving steep or winding routes. The axles are fitted with hub reduction, providing the high-torque capability and ground clearance associated with heavy-duty timber work.
The truck measures 1,025 cm in overall length and has a declared load capacity of 14,685 kg, with a gross vehicle weight of 30,000 kg. It is listed at $67,900 on an ex-works basis.
