Hawke’s Bay highways are where you’ll see some of New Zealand’s newest big horsepower logging rigs and head turning paint schemes.

Storm Harrison’s new Waikawa Haulage Scania S 730 logger is a prime example with a Euro 6 spec 16-litre V8 producing 730hp, premium specifications and a `Show & Shine’ quality custom finish.

Christened `Tane Mahuta’, the Scania combines Swedish muscle with Kiwi finish quality to convey its “God of the Forest” theme.

The S 730 is Storm’s first new truck and he’s set aside a long time liking for Kenworth’s to take the European route.

“Pretty much I’ve always been a Kenworth fan but when I looked into the horsepower of the Scania, the competitive pricing, the comfort and the Scan Plan [Scania Assistance service and maintenance package] I decided it was the way to go.

“The Scan Plan was the biggest thing for me.”
