Its a lovely run down there after starting at Salters in Wisbech in the dark and then approaching Dartford Bridge as the sun is rising and not knowing where to look as the sun illuminates the buildings. Crikey, the clocks go back an hour on Saturday night. That will change your mornings next week.
Tip for the Mercedes if they keep running away on you whilst trying to do manoeuvres. Go into the menus and turn off crawler mode, that way, its not immediately trying to drive when you take foot off the brake. (Some of them take off quite quick) You should be able to control them better on the throttle then. Hope that makes sense and helps.
Tim you should of left those foldable hydrulic ramps on the trailer the ones it came with, if you did the paint on the back of the trailer would be less scratched and also the ramps where longer and you wouldn't need to do the lugging about of the ones you have now and no having to strap them down. Thats why that kind of configeration of low loader is more popular now. The olny down side is you can't have overhang on the back or less it fits between the ramps. Also if you get longer ramps they may also be heavier and more awkward to lift and move.
just in door, crap week, uploaded 3 minutes ago. you've saved the day. never stop doing what you do man. if you ever pass carfrae on the A68. gimmie those tangs!! jacko.
Thank you Sir Trucker Tim from Peter Eriksson, Sweden for Swedish Express down to Seville Spain in a Volvo XXL GLOBETROTTER 3 hours in Northern Germany. Enjoying your video before sleep! Take Care Trucker Tim, UK!😊😅😊 this round Europe are 9 450 km before back home!
Great video Tim! Those F1 trucks look great. We definitely need guy to sort out a new winch and longer ramps . Also, you need to keep spare bulbs and a tool kit in both trucks.
Dear Tim my son which is 5year old has watched all your videos and he is a huge fan of you.he really want to meet you.he even look on the motorways after your Scania.
We've just bought some merch and some tickets to your raffle Tim, I have been watching the content since data shredders and love it. Keep it up Tim and don't let anyone/anything stop you.
Tim Boyy , Part ex the Trailor for a Low Boy Trailer , the Body Slides Back over the Wheels , Crouchy has them as Most Heavy Recovery Firms, if they can load Coach n Buses, Trucks be a Doddle, Work Smarter not Harder Boyyyy I Doubt those F1 Units just be Driving to Silverstone lol , Be all the F1 Trucks Great Vid Son👌👍
Need to get them ramps sorted Tim, and love your comment about your camera is your back load brilliant 😂 old Casper seems a character. Loving your vlogs.
Excellent I love the r series nice to see it working and not just a show truck but the reversal of colour from the R to the S series will definitely look good can’t wait to see it good luck with it all mate
Wow, my first time seeing that Volvo FH12 in your vid Tim! having being in my head since my Grandpa told me he drove one of em before! Anyway good video as always Tim, and with your customized R series, made it better! Have a good day
Hi Tim, why not replace the Tamu bulbs for yellow led bulbs. Did it with mine and they look smashing. No more problems with burned out bulbs, happy time!!
Trucker tim is a god of haulage i wish i knew as much as him ive only been doing it 5 years im new at this but i learn a lot from him he is a proper graffter ,
This is so cool... Trucker Tim colliding with my favourite sport! These trucks are from McLaren rather than the Mercedes works team, so they won't have pulled Hamilton's car. Given that they're 71 plate, they'll have been used for the 2022/2023 season, maybe some of 2024. This means they'll have moved cars for Lando Norris, Daniel Ricciardo and Oscar Piastri. The cars they'll have moved will be the McLaren MCL36 (2022), the MCL60 (2023) and maybe the MCL38 (2024). They may have also been used to pull other trailers, like equipment trailers or parts of the McLaren hospitality suite which is transported on a few trailers and assembled for each race weekend. These trucks won't have just gone to Silverstone and back - to keep carbon emissions down all the teams truck their stuff around the European leg of the season rather than flying it, so these trucks will have been going all over Europe, as far as Baku and Barcelona between May and September. If they were used during 2024, then they've for sure pulled race winning cars or equipment around Europe - Lando won the Dutch GP, and Oscar won Azerbaijan and Hungary. Super awesome to see you hauling these! 😎
@@johndoughnut8617 Used to do it a while back,the driving was the easy part especially in Europe,we got to know the good places to stop!...Set up and taking down the garage was hard graft,painting the garage floor, then being part of the pitstop in the race,tyres,fuel,filling air bottles, polishing everything including the inside and outsides of the trucks,,airport pick ups,the list goes on !,..Money was pretty good and hotels and all the food provided,..A few beers were not unheard of on occasion !
Don't forget to pay the Dartford Crossing again Tim! Love watching your videos. You are such a down to earth and likeable chap. Hopefully we'll meet in person one day. Also order a new card. It's about to expire!!!!
Love the video Tim! When are you going to do stuff to the 4 series!? I also absolutely love your R series from what it was to what is has become and the interior etc, etc. Keep trucking your heart out and can't wait to see the next video and an update on the 4 series in 90 years time🤣.
Durex is a different type of paint Tim 😂😂But those mercs are gorgeous I used to drive one and there really comfortable to drive and sleep in, lovely big cab and really nice to drive, don't knock it till you've tried it 😊
Getting some work to Smithfield Meat Market would make a good video. Its only open at night but its like a Tang Convention around there in the Evening.
We run the basic merc actros, still has mirror cams etc but the seats are terrible, mirror cams are good until it rains and its pitch dark, ours are being sent back to the hire firm and replacing them with 71 plate daf
You have the information about the driving time left in the cluster, had it on my -16 R streamline, never had to do a printout to see it, all the info is there, just change the "your choice" of menu :)
I don't know if it's still this way in the US because I haven't driven a truck for over 20 years, but back when I was a trucker from the mid-1990s to the early 2000s, if you drove your truck with any of your lights, even marker lights, out, the coppers in most US states would pull you over and give you a ticket for not having all your lights working.
That talmu lights are considered as accessory light, so no problem if it going out. For main light and marker light, then yes it should be in working order.
There is a new mcdonald's at the Lincolnshire showground, if you pass having to eat ,but nowhere Park your lorry , only think off is park up at the side entrance of of the showground, or park up up at the main entrance and walk down the path.
Oooh my hometown!, fun fact where you loaded used to be a Scania dealer just around the corner lol. I found a nice big winch on fb the other day and emailed it ya
Gotta be said… the videos are way better being back behind the wheel! It’s boss seeing the other going son with your trucking life but the content is awesome at the moment ❤
Tim new ramps a must. Maybe spare gloves, yellow jacket and bedding 🛌 🤔 incase of emergency 😊 Great video again thanks. Keep up the good work. By the way how is Ben in the new HQ.
Yes better ramps you always seem to slip on those. And those ratchet straps,you need to see your fellow youtuber Mark McCann he owns a strap company. Keep on trucking 👍
@@alexrobinson2281 ye heard a few have, truckerbaddie has had to spend around 10k fixing theres and it’s only a few months old and gdb are refusing to pay
Remember when Tim was worried about scratching the rear of his trailer, looking at it now I’m not sure he’s bothered about it, that or he’s really good at hiding the fact that he’s bothered about it
Nice video again mate. But in godsname get some proper tools, spare bits and bobs in the R/S series. And you really need better ramps or a bigger winch.
Not to sound all negative or shirty but don't you think getting the correct ramps would be a bigger priority knowing you're doing jobs/ loads where having the correct kit would be make your life easier in the long run!? Still cool load with those ex F1 Merc trucks on the trailer!! 😃😃👍👍
It had beaver tail ramps on it originally, but he removed them because it'd look "tang" enough for him. He would rather struggle and damage the trucks because the image (that nobody cares about apart from 14 year old subscribers) is more important to him.
Tim I love your content and get you need to do haulage to get money but I think you need to hire a editor plus give bengineer a camera so when your out on haulage when he's busy with projects he can film it so you can release more videos a week and I think you need to do another volvo build soon
Very entertaining Tim watched a few videos brilliant and will be watching many more. Little treat for you whenever your back up in the Central Belt of Scotland Lanarkshire area. I nice drive out in my old 1991 Classic Mercedes W126 300se in showroom condition you and your subscribers will love it. All the best pal. Willy.
Turns Out I Know Nothing About F1 🤣
Lol
wtf what the hell
Lol.
Would you really want to , Barry sheen in trucks much better 🤔

Looking good, those ramps are the only thing that let your set-up down
and the winch
Truck and trailer looks really good just need to replace the ramps and the winch and it’ll be spot on I love the interior
@@KevinClarke-n1h will be spot on for a few months then will have big problems, gdb sell 💩 trailers
Hi Tim love the vids can u do a song request when u drive with the r serials play this song (flowers in da rain) please tim

I wonder do their truck drivers get paid a fortune? Must be stressful hauling around such valuable cars and parts
@@johndoughnut8617no, I live up the road from there and the money is pretty crap, too many other companies carving the job up and working for nothing.

@westboundbadger interesting Job
You can get some grit to mix into paint. We use it in walkways on the decks of ships to prevent folk slipping on the wet decks.
I love it when he drives in the old gen R-series, such a beautiful truck! Love your vids Tim! 🚚💨
Whoah! I was surprised this was just 14 mins ago. Love ya Tim!
From Philippines
Love seeing Andy's man club on the trailer means so much. ITS OK TO TALK 👌
@@phillipdeanrobinson9631 I'm the same here
Get a driver on the R-series once the S-series is done, that way the transportation will be faster, keep up the great work tim ❤
Trucker Tim you was down my neck of the woods great to see you down south keep up the good work 🎉
Great video Trucker Tim! Love it! What a nice truck! 🥰

Yourself and Welderfabber should do a joint video of getting new ramps made for your trailer👌🤙
Durex is a different type of paint Tim 😂😂But those mercs are gorgeous I used to drive one and there really comfortable to drive and sleep in, lovely big cab and really nice to drive, don't knock it till you've tried it 😊
I practically live for my next Trucker Tim fix. Always so enjoyable.
Great video Tim. Them Mercs looked pretty nice to be honest
Fantastic video Tim, you almost came past my front door! (M2 Medway bridge) you definitely need a better ramp setup!😊
Getting some work to Smithfield Meat Market would make a good video. Its only open at night but its like a Tang Convention around there in the Evening.
You should have bulbs and tools as truck driver to comply with walk round and your morning checks.
Great stuff Tim 👍🏻 love to see you on a overseas trip
"M20 lets go" thats the a249 tim 😂 my yard is in sittingbourne you was going under the bobbing junctuin haha love the videos as allways
Looks like u let the light on one of the Benz still on 😂 10:43
We run the basic merc actros, still has mirror cams etc but the seats are terrible, mirror cams are good until it rains and its pitch dark, ours are being sent back to the hire firm and replacing them with 71 plate daf
Trucker Tim,no bulbs or tools WTF Tim 😮
Who doesn’t carry a tool kit and spare lamps?!
@@miketaylor1916 this amateur clown. He only cares about the noise it makes.
24:26 great content again at least you weren’t stuck on the m25 when the Tesco lorry became a inferno
5PM Gang!
They do a bit more than Silverstone & back 😂 took some for team Williams across Europe a while back - 1500 miles in two shifts double manned.
Another brilliant video, Thank you, trucker Tim. I always look forward to your videos , very interesting and entertaining ❤😂

You can tell Tim went for looks over practicality when getting his trailer 🤣
There is a new mcdonald's at the Lincolnshire showground, if you pass having to eat ,but nowhere Park your lorry , only think off is park up at the side entrance of of the showground, or park up up at the main entrance and walk down the path.

Great video again thanks. Keep up the good work.
By the way how is Ben in the new HQ.
Great video Tim, but yes get those ramps changed
You should get welderfabber to make you some new ramp’s for your trailer. It would be great content for you both
Tim's ability to foreshadow everything is very funny
Hi Tim perhaps you could get something fitted to the ramps and back of the trailer to give more friction and less slippage when you load something on
he still could do with longer ones
Today I completed my first trip to England. The middle of London is a nightmare. Scooters and cyclists everywhere, you have to watch them everywhere
i fitted all the lights to that DJ wills truck nice to see them still going
They will have been all over Europe. F1 teams just keep everything immaculate.
They aren’t exactly the hardest working trucks
Each Trucker Tim video gets better from the last
Keep it up Tim, can we see the S looks like?
Yes better ramps you always seem to slip on those. And those ratchet straps,you need to see your fellow youtuber Mark McCann he owns a strap company.
Keep on trucking 👍
Trucker Tim’s Spanish adventures coming to a screen near you soon 🚚🙌😂
Bedankt
Oh Timmy, having Talmus/doubleburners/bulbgylles means you have box of p21, r5w and a screwdriver in hand. Always
Quality vid Tim. We should do a colaberation together in the HGV driver training sector - keep up the good work ✔️
Tim. Need to sort out the ramps and paint on that trailer to no slip as you having so much bother with that trailer 😢 .. hopefully you get it sorted 😊
GET SOME PROPER RAMPS!!!!
That wheel is ludicrously large 🤣
But I love it 😆
Everytime i see u drive this i think TRUCKER GIRL TIM 😂😂😂
Can't wait for the trailer to get sorted, if your taking it back to gbt you might aswell get the wood you wanted sorted aswell
You really should have some tools in the truck plus spare bulbs not just a BIG TOOL behind the wheel 😂😂
Tim why don’t you just leave your bedding in ya cab just in case. Guessing you weren’t a Boy Scout 😂
I really think you should get electric ramps, they would be awesome on your trailer!!!
no, wouldnt spend that much money onto a old trailer
-
4:14 definitely need new ramps or a new trailer 🤔🤷🏽♂️
Definitely not making excuses to get a 5 axled trailer, next video 'surprise!'
he needs new trailer before more breaks on it, so many people have had big issues with trailers from gdb
@@christopherhand1092We had bother with GBT ☹️
@@alexrobinson2281 ye heard a few have, truckerbaddie has had to spend around 10k fixing theres and it’s only a few months old and gdb are refusing to pay
Also needs a remote for that winch
You could have stretched your trailer out one lock to help with loading and gives more room to play with
Just remember it is TALMU lights, not temu or anything :) Keep up the good work and hopefully we see bengineer soon!
You should get some of that black felt stuff, bit like sandpaper, strips on your trailer to help with grip when getting a truck on
Im a Mercedes f1 fan and i really enjoyed this video tim, keep it up ❤
2 Nice trucks trucker Tim Tony from Rochdale love watching your channel
18:00 in South Africa 🇿🇦

Nice video again mate. But in godsname get some proper tools, spare bits and bobs in the R/S series. And you really need better ramps or a bigger winch.

Isnt it engine brake? @@camerongb
The amount of space between the two trucks when you've got two on always stresses me out!

You need to replace them ramps Tim, preferebly the ones without the holes/openings
we need to see the unit again tim with the Volvo v8 and the other volvo
