Thank You Slipses for uploading these video clips. I have been driving for around 19 years in western United States and enjoy snow and scenery in winters. I wish you safe upcoming winters.
Good day Slipse, Thanks a million for sharing with the world your great videos giving a live insight into especially Scandinavian Trucking. It really is an eye-opener for all those who haven't yet been so lucky to actually see the fantastic countryside there. Together with the well maintained roads and well thought out traffic routing systems of Scandinavia it makes life on the road so much easier. I've had the great luck to have travelled both to Sweden and Norway a couple of times and can only confirm how beautiful the countries are. No matter what weather, bright and sunny, miserable and rainy, or snowy and wintery, every time has been a joy to visit and travel in. The people seem so much more relaxed than back here on the continent. Anyway Slipse, it is a real joy for me as a dual national, English/German man living in North-Eastern Germany and in my mid fifties to watch your footage. My dream as a young man was to be a trucker but back in the U. S. as I had a real passion for the fantastic American trucks, the Kenworths and Macks, Peterbuilts and Internationals etc.. Also the wide open country and especially Route 66, Colarado and the freedom I felt could only be lived out there. However I never managed to get my backside so far out of Europe although did quite some travelling and thus got around so to anticipate several beautiful countrysides in several countries. Maybe one day I'll again be in Scandinavia and will be able to contact you in person at one of the many gas stations on route. Due to an illness I am on early retirement but this doesn't hinder me in doing some travelling, rather the finance is an issue. But hey this can also be overcome and so as per my motto, always finish on a positive. All the very Best to you and all those truckers who keep our economies rolling and without which our stores would be empty. Cheers, Gordon
Absolutely fantastic video, the scenery is just out of this world, thank you so much for allowing us to come along with you for the journey. I am a retired tanker driver, but never ever drove in amongst the worlds most beautiful scenery like you do, your so so lucky to have a job like that, and one that you seem to love also. I had a bad accident in 1997, and yes when you see one on the road it brings back horrible memories of your own one. Take care and once again, many many thanks for the fantastic video. Kind regards from Scotland, Johnny
brilliant video and great driving skills ,,i was truly surprised by how much trucks have improved since i was last driving them ,,and the best thing is i have discovered how onspot chains work,what a fantastic invention ,as it saves on those cold wet hands and clothing ,,keep up the videos as they are really interesting to watch ,,stay safe and be happy ,,,
I’m amazed how these trucking videos in Norway could be anywhere in the Northern Rockies in Canada. Very similar weather, scenery and vegetation, Thanks for sharing.
Slipses Spent my early years trucking the Alaska Hwy. It was pre- pavement days so 1100km of gravel road each way every trip out of Whitehorse to Edmonton or Vancouver. The original Alaska Hwy had lots of 12-17% grade so a lot of chains in the winter months. In the summer rocks and dust😁 My brother and I ran team and a round trip to Vancouver or Edmonton out if Whitehorse every week.
just come across this video. I am from cape Town South Africa. we never see this amount of snow in winter. Great scenery and it looks like a great place to stay. Slipses thanks for sharing. Love it!!
Quel plaisir de te voir rouler dans ces conditions. J'ai beaucoup roulé dans la neige en Ardennes Belge et le Luxembourg,rien de comparable , j'étais chauffeur (gaz industriel)à la retraite maintenant. La neige chez nous est un vrai problème car mal gérée par des services qui font le maximum avec un minimum de matériel. De plus elle est souvent fort humide. Avec 3 cm d'épaisseur en ville tout est à l'arrêt.
Whatever they pay you, it's not enough. You bring goods to the people and without it, we would starve or not have anything. Thank you for all you do and GOD bless.
Its nice to see many of the roads i used to drive before i quit trucking last year. I hope you do a summer version of this. Hamarøya is magnificent during a summers day and you dont need to fear if someone coming down the hills ahead on bad tires. Im quite sure we have crossed paths up there many times. I atleast used to meet N & K Spedition trailers several times a week in northern Norway.
Hei Vidar 😊👍 tusen takk 😁 we most probably have met out there, I've been working for N&K for 5 and a half years now, but I would think, that I was driving my old blue Scania Highline back when you were driving too 😊 what company did you work for? And yes Hamarøy is spectacular, I hope I will get some good drone footage from up there, when the weather gets a little better 😉👍
@@Slipse pretty sure l have seen the blue Scania, now i only drive å few weekends a month to keep the skills fresh. Ill watch out for your future videos definetly. The company i drive most for dont exist anymore but was alot loading for bring and schenker. But my last year I drove for Ovik. We moved concrete elements mostly.
Hello slipses Greetings from the uk.. What a fantastic video to watch,the scenary and the driving skills required[respect].This is the first i have watched but it will not be the last. Stay safe.
@@Slipse I have to ask as you were driving in Sweden and went through the tunnel in the big city, what is up with one section in the tunnel with the black light/blue light shining up on the rock ceiling it was fantastic looking, as you drove through it...
Thank you for showin' us this beautiful landscape! Respect for you and your colleague truckers for doin' your job in these conditions! It separates the men from the boys! Drive safe and stay safe! Until next time!
Scary experience on our dutch winter tires all the way up to skelleftea, next time i’ll get nokians. I can imagine how tired you must be after a day driving under these circumstances. Nice channel, keep it up!
Thank you very much Ron 😊👍 yes, I will never get tired of these views 😊 all is well here, despite all the Corona s... I just wonder if things will ever go back to how we knew it? I hope all is well in your end too?
Hi, Mr. Wonderdriver, Fantastic video as ever, wonderful views of norwegian & swedish Lapland. You are a very professionnal, safe driver and an astonishing photographer….Tina Turner would sing : SIMPLY THE BEST I just cannot wait for the next videos ! Thks for sharing such great views of your hard job. Best regards & take care of Yourselves & your family. Pierre from Switzerland
Thank you very much Pierre 😊👍 I promise to work hard on getting the next video ready soon 😉 and please, you and your loved ones, stay safe in these weird times 😉👍
@@Slipse Nordic countries incl. your home country are the only hard drug to me : once the North, always the North ! I have been in love with Norway on a business trip in 1984 (Notodden / Kvinesdal in the south border). Many holidays trips in Norway / Sweden / Finland made out of me an unconditionnal fan of such incredible landscapes. I really do not know despite your very long & tough journeys how you manage to cope with driving / filming and editing ! Just let you know that for me WINTER TRUCKING 2020 1 & 2 are pieces of poetry ! Thks again and take care !
Hallo, sehr schönes Video, was uns Deutaschn den Winter wieder einmal nahebringt. Als Kraftfahrer würde ich aber die Scheinwerfer besser einstellen um das Maximale herauszuholen (8:53). Die Dachscheinwerfer stehen viel zu tief ;o) Fahr Vorsichtig :)
Thank' s a lot for this vidéo, at the moment where business is very quiet and so I ' m not able to drive my truck as often as I' d like to , it's a really good moment ( and as I said before, never been to Norway and so, I just can imagine as being there trough your movie 👍. Take care of you, please to see a new film asap 🙂. Greetings from Brittany.
That was quite a trip.The weather will be warmer now,but i think you somehow like your winter driving. Foot tapping music gets my old bones going. Some of those places i get to go simulator driving on my computer,it keeps me busy and my mind alert . Happy trucking from OZ.
Hi MrRinkly 😊👍 good to hear from you, I am glad I can help exercise you a little 😁👍 you are right, I do like the winter, it is a good challenge, and ads the touch of something, that is out of one's control.. I think it will be another month, before spring really sets in up north. Stay safe down under my friend 😊👍
Tak for endnu en smuk vinterlandskabs tur, her i den varme stue. 👍👍 Dejligt at du har puttet tekster på og nogle rute angivelser, jeg nyder at følge dine ture, Norge er et flot land.
Ham kollegaen 11:11 havde godt nok travlt, må håbe, at han havde gode dæk og nåede frem før tiden, selv om hastvæk kan være lastværk, som kan give stres og dårligt helbred, både for hende/ ham, men så sandelig også for Os Andre på fællesvej. Mbh fra Danmark, Albertslund 😺
They are a great tool, when you get caught up in something you didn't expect, and chaining up is too late.. But they aren't as effective as a real set of spiked snowchains 😉
Thanks for the Video Slipses!! Absolutely beautiful country! Always enjoy watching your videos Slipses. Let me know when you want to trade Sweden, for Arizona USA. You would love it out here. No snow, it's a rarity, except for the mountains. Love the Scania, but I rather take a Peterbilt 389 (Classic American Truck)! Take Care and stay safe with all the crassness that is going on!
Thank you very much JJ 😊👍 I would love to visit your neck of the woods one fine day 😊 but I believe that I belong up here north, I know I'm weird, but I do love the challenge of winter trucking.. I envy the big sleepers on American trucks, we can't have those due to our overall length restrictions, but it seems to me, that our trucks are better fit for Arctic conditions.. I ofc need to say, I only have my opinion, from watching ie ice road truckers on TV, and from comparing details with some US friends on some internet forums 😉
Thanks for a great vid Slipses. The scenery is so beautiful , must be great to see in real life. Glad you had a safe trip and a good rest. Cheers mate👍🏻🚚🇬🇧
Thank you very much Victor 😊 I just struggle to find enough hours in a day 😉 but all is well here, and I hope it is the same in your neck of the woods?
Slipses thank you for taking the time to reply Sepses, yes all is reasonably fine here in Scotland, considering the present world virus situation (Actually "fine" might not be the correct word to use , ALL countries are struggling with this unseen virus )
Slipses, are you still trucking with the same company to the far north as usual ?, I hope that you are fit and well and able to continue with your travel videos, they really are so relaxing to watch, AND to listen to, I may add, greetings from Scotland ( where there are still genetic traces from your ancestors "visits"! )
Hi Flemming. I hope you and family are well, healthy and in good spirits. Excellent video. So nice to see North Norway and Denmark again. I miss home :-) It was nice to have a combination of natural road noise and music on this video. I really enjoyed watching this. I look forward to the next episode. Thank you. I have some questions Flemming : 1) When was the last time your drove a truck with an Eaton Fuller Road Ranger gearbox ? 2) What was your total time from Astafjorden to Billund ? 3) What is a sensible and safe speed for driving with ice chains fitted ? Great job. Keep it safe and straight. Cheers, Ade
Hi Ade 😊 All is well here thank you 😊 I will be leaving for work again tomorrow, after a nice long Easter break 😊 I have only driven a fuller gearbox once on a trip to Italy, in a MAN commander... To be brutaly honest, I don't see what the hype was about..! Driving on snowchains, the speed depends on what type of chains they are.. On-Spot chains max 50km/h The normal spiked chains that is most commonly used in Norway, also around 50 to 60 km/h But with the cross linked types, the ones used in Austria, I had no hesitation to do 90km/h 😁
Interesting to learn. Thank you. In Australia if you do your truck license with a manual Road Ranger gear box then you are allowed to drive any truck. I have this license but I am not a truck driver :-) Excellent video. Safe and enjoyable travels.
You seem to love guitar music. I've taken a guitar with me for many years. Easy time , is when I'm strumming away, in the middle of nowhere . Road music and Volvo cabover trucks ! I was made for the road
I do love guitar music, however I'll stick to be a music user, since I've never been able to play a tone in my life 😉🤣🤣 About trucks, I am a fan of the Volvo rival - Scania.. also made in Sweden, but to me, the ultimate ride for winter conditions 😉 but.. I know, it's a matter of "religion" 😁
I love the way the Scania looks. It seems very smooth. Never saw a class8 Scania imported to the USA. I would drive it. I wish you the very best! Keep on trucking!
Hi Mark 😊 the speed is a bit hard to talk about, since it varies a lot, depending on the weather / temperature.. You can say in general, that I go faster if the temperature is colder than minus 10 degrees C, and the closer the temperature gets to 0 degrees C the slower I go, since the snow and ice gets wet, and therefore more slippery.. About the weight, empty my truck and trailer weighs 22.000 kgs , the refrigerated trailer with side opening, is quite heavy.. My allowed total weight is 50.000kgs
Cool mate thanks I'm in new Zealand over here back in the 80s 90s when in snow it was good hook in and you just learnt over time but nowadays they close the roads quite early .our weights do very 6 wheeler tractor trailer 3 axles is 39000 kgs 4 axle truck 5 axle pull trailer is 50 000 kgs or permits you can go 58 000 kgs and and still alsorts in betweeen .👍
Slipses ... oh that is a shame. I was a second driver on a run to Scotland through Samson Transport. I’d love to say Hi to one of the drivers I spent many miles with - Claus Peterson.
Hi Nick, thank you very much for the comment 😊👍 yes I have my truck fitted with On Spot chains.. But they are more a good tool in a tight spot.. If the situation gets too bad, you need to put on the real chains, the ones with spikes.. Nothing compares with those.. 😉
this video is very nice and very beautiful scene. i like your video and watch every video..very intresting video and road trip. i have a query...that how much i earn per month in trucking with own truck. and second is that what is the price of vovlo fh16 longline? Please reply. thnaks for this video and thanks in advance for your reply.
Hello Slipses, First of all forgive me if there is a typing error but I have used the Google translator. My name is Antonio and I am writing to you from Spain. I just discovered your channel through this video and I liked it a lot, logically I am already subscribed. I am 50 years old and I would not have minded dedicating myself to this profession, but the case did not occur, nor was it so clear to me when I was young. So now I am satisfied with being a virtual trucker, in the Euro Truck Simulator 2 simulator for computers ... do you know him? In it we can drive the same trucks as professionals and on the same routes and countries as you. In fact I am part of the structure of a virtual transport company where we are forty drivers. I really like "Holland Style" trucks, of which I usually collect photographs, so they are usually the type of truck that I drive at a particular level in the simulator. I will follow your videos from now on (and see the old ones). I wish you all your future trips to be as happy as possible. A greeting!!
In Italy we actually dont have "Spaghetti Bolognese". It doesnt matter, i like your videos, this is the third i watch and i hope to find more :-) Greetings from Rome Italy :-)
@@Slipse Yes sir Flemming, we are cozy here in rural Oregon. Thanks for asking. And your video was such a wonderful distraction in our sea of boredom. Your music selection was just dynamite, along with the scenery. Just fantastic. Thanks again my friend. We're looking forward to the next time we can ride along with Slipses. :)
If there are no truck stops etc and you stay out at night, i am guessing you do not switch off the engine, how much fuel are you carrying?? From an ignorant car driver.
It depends on the temperature, whether I leave the engine running overnight, below minus 15 degrees C, it let it run, set the rpm to around 800 and let the cab heater running as well, otherwise the engine won't keep up the working temperature. With full tanks, I have 850 liters. At 800 rpm the engine uses around 3 liters an hour 😉 i hope this answer, made you a little wiser.. Otherwise, ask again 😉👍
Hejsa 😊 alt er jo lidt en balance gang, jeg har flere gange tænkt på at, næste gang der skal lægges kæder på, så skal jeg huske at filme.. MEN, tit og ofte, så er det noget som skal gå tjept, det er dårligt vejr og som regel også bælgragende mørkt.. Så det er indtil nu, bare blevet til et foto hist og pist.. Det med at sidde fast, det bruger jeg ikke... 😉😁
It varies a lot, depending on the temperature, but normally I'd do around 80km/h if there's below minus 8 degrees C. The colder, the better grip, the worst temperature is around 0 degrees C, because the ice and snow gets wet, and way more slippery..
That's why England comes to standstill when it snows because it's never cold enough. 25 years driving artics in U.K and Europe but never got to your part of the world until I took a driving holiday in a classic car. Great driving roads.
To all of us truckers across the world, ty for all you do. 24 year driver still going strong in USA.
Outstanding. I've been to Sweden often, its great to see the country from you're office, quite different to when I visit in the summer.
Maravillosas vistas!
Bravo!
Thank You Slipses for uploading these video clips. I have been driving for around 19 years in western United States and enjoy snow and scenery in winters. I wish you safe upcoming winters.
Good day Slipse, Thanks a million for sharing with the world your great videos giving a live insight into especially Scandinavian Trucking. It really is an eye-opener for all those who haven't yet been so lucky to actually see the fantastic countryside there. Together with the well maintained roads and well thought out traffic routing systems of Scandinavia it makes life on the road so much easier. I've had the great luck to have travelled both to Sweden and Norway a couple of times and can only confirm how beautiful the countries are. No matter what weather, bright and sunny, miserable and rainy, or snowy and wintery, every time has been a joy to visit and travel in. The people seem so much more relaxed than back here on the continent. Anyway Slipse, it is a real joy for me as a dual national, English/German man living in North-Eastern Germany and in my mid fifties to watch your footage. My dream as a young man was to be a trucker but back in the U. S. as I had a real passion for the fantastic American trucks, the Kenworths and Macks, Peterbuilts and Internationals etc.. Also the wide open country and especially Route 66, Colarado and the freedom I felt could only be lived out there. However I never managed to get my backside so far out of Europe although did quite some travelling and thus got around so to anticipate several beautiful countrysides in several countries. Maybe one day I'll again be in Scandinavia and will be able to contact you in person at one of the many gas stations on route.
Due to an illness I am on early retirement but this doesn't hinder me in doing some travelling, rather the finance is an issue. But hey this can also be overcome and so as per my motto, always finish on a positive.
All the very Best to you and all those truckers who keep our economies rolling and without which our stores would be empty.
Cheers, Gordon

They are a great tool, when you get caught up in something you didn't expect, and chaining up is too late..

I wait for next movie. well done !
my old hometown bjerkvik, loved going to the alpine center in øse, bummed it closed down
Fin fin video. Der er smukt oppe i det høje nord. Bestemt en tur værd hvis man kender en man kan komme med på en tur :)
Great video, greetings from Serbia! :)
Hi, friend
Very good work. Chronometric perfection.
My respects to you.
Hug
Beautiful!
Thank you very much Marie 😊👍
That was a real adventure!
Hi Flemming. I hope you and family are well, healthy and in good spirits.
Excellent video. So nice to see North Norway and Denmark again. I miss home :-)
It was nice to have a combination of natural road noise and music on this video.
I really enjoyed watching this. I look forward to the next episode. Thank you.
I have some questions Flemming :
1) When was the last time your drove a truck with an Eaton Fuller Road Ranger gearbox ?
2) What was your total time from Astafjorden to Billund ?
3) What is a sensible and safe speed for driving with ice chains fitted ?
Great job. Keep it safe and straight. Cheers, Ade
Hi Ade 😊
All is well here thank you 😊 I will be leaving for work again tomorrow, after a nice long Easter break 😊
I have only driven a fuller gearbox once on a trip to Italy, in a MAN commander... To be brutaly honest, I don't see what the hype was about..!
Driving on snowchains, the speed depends on what type of chains they are.. On-Spot chains max 50km/h
The normal spiked chains that is most commonly used in Norway, also around 50 to 60 km/h
But with the cross linked types, the ones used in Austria, I had no hesitation to do 90km/h 😁
Interesting to learn. Thank you.
In Australia if you do your truck license with a manual Road Ranger gear box then you are allowed to drive any truck. I have this license but I am not a truck driver :-)
Excellent video. Safe and enjoyable travels.
Well done video!
Thank you very much 😊👍
Bra musik Flemming och en schysst video..
Tusen tack Tony 😊👍
Enjoying your drives......what music is on here? My husband plays guitar and he’s digging it. 😁
Beautiful, but dangerous truck!
Thank you Anna, but why do you say it is a dangerous truck ?
You seem to love guitar music. I've taken a guitar with me for many years. Easy time , is when I'm strumming away, in the middle of nowhere . Road music and Volvo cabover trucks ! I was made for the road
I do love guitar music, however I'll stick to be a music user, since I've never been able to play a tone in my life 😉🤣🤣
About trucks, I am a fan of the Volvo rival - Scania.. also made in Sweden, but to me, the ultimate ride for winter conditions 😉 but.. I know, it's a matter of "religion" 😁
I love the way the Scania looks. It seems very smooth. Never saw a class8 Scania imported to the USA. I would drive it. I wish you the very best! Keep on trucking!
Самая лучшая и красивая природа и Скандинавии и сама Скания.
Thanks for the ride. 👍
Muy bueno!!! gracias!
Absolutely awesome 👌😍😍😍🇦🇺❤️❤️❤️
Thank you very much Neville 😊👍
Nice video i am a new subcriber from holland.
I have seen all the video's.
Velcome on board Gijs 😊👍
Cool video can do sum talking about driving weight speed that sort of stuff 👍👍
Hi Mark 😊 the speed is a bit hard to talk about, since it varies a lot, depending on the weather / temperature.. You can say in general, that I go faster if the temperature is colder than minus 10 degrees C, and the closer the temperature gets to 0 degrees C the slower I go, since the snow and ice gets wet, and therefore more slippery..
About the weight, empty my truck and trailer weighs 22.000 kgs , the refrigerated trailer with side opening, is quite heavy.. My allowed total weight is 50.000kgs
Cool mate thanks I'm in new Zealand over here back in the 80s 90s when in snow it was good hook in and you just learnt over time but nowadays they close the roads quite early .our weights do very 6 wheeler tractor trailer 3 axles is 39000 kgs 4 axle truck 5 axle pull trailer is 50 000 kgs or permits you can go 58 000 kgs and and still alsorts in betweeen .👍
big salute U,..and my dream to like a truck driver,... this video too much increase my dream Thanku dear,...
Respect, good video, good driver
Thank you very much Mike 😊👍 working on the next one.. I hope I can have it done sometime next weekend 😁
@@Slipse 👍👍😎
I’m from malaysia, have been to kiruna last year in early winter.
Surprised to see that fuel is so expensive in Norway (considering that it doesn't have to be imported).
Hello
Driving looks so easy but how it si possible. Do you have tires with studs in addition to the on spot ? It is a treat watch you.
Great Job!
Very good DRIVING n beautiful views really lovely, I am from INDIA DRIVER OF FLAT BED
Found another of your videos. Beautiful, but how do you drive in all that snow?
I can never say it often enough Anita , seriously good winter tires, is half the work 😊👍
@@Slipse Drive safe!!
Lindas paisagens...
Magnifico
Grazie mille my friend 😊👍 I hope you are staying safe down there, in these troublesome times?
@@Slipse Tutto ok amico mio, grazie del pensiero buon lavoro un abbraccio
i live in a city called Tromsø. and when i go somewhere by car i use to stop at this gas station 5:08
That car at 8:40 wisely stopped before his front wheel was caught by the snow drift and possibly rotated his car into your front end.
Very nice top 🚚🙋🏼♂️
Professional drivers.
Very nice video ✅
Thank you very much Nicholas 😊👍
They have crazy drivers to
We are all a little crazy to do what we do 😁
Bouwy 57 belle vidéo ,paysage super.
Merci beaucoup Arsene 😊👍
Very good video. Do you know of a haulier called Arne Jensen from Simmelkjaer please? I used to drive one of their lastbeale. Thank you!
Hi Darren 😊 yes, I used to know their trucks, but I am not sure if the company still exists..?
Slipses ... oh that is a shame. I was a second driver on a run to Scotland through Samson Transport. I’d love to say Hi to one of the drivers I spent many miles with - Claus Peterson.
Fantastic video and driving, are your snow chains automatic, all the best from nick Horne, Norwich, England.
Hi Nick, thank you very much for the comment 😊👍 yes I have my truck fitted with On Spot chains.. But they are more a good tool in a tight spot.. If the situation gets too bad, you need to put on the real chains, the ones with spikes..
Nothing compares with those.. 😉
This is good drive...
Where is the city or town ,Barsness,my dad was from there,if you know ?

RUclips : wanna watch someone drive a truck on snow
Me: sure

Have to edit and upload while resting in your lorry to wind down
Hello Slipses,
First of all forgive me if there is a typing error but I have used the Google translator. My name is Antonio and I am writing to you from Spain. I just discovered your channel through this video and I liked it a lot, logically I am already subscribed. I am 50 years old and I would not have minded dedicating myself to this profession, but the case did not occur, nor was it so clear to me when I was young.
So now I am satisfied with being a virtual trucker, in the Euro Truck Simulator 2 simulator for computers ... do you know him? In it we can drive the same trucks as professionals and on the same routes and countries as you. In fact I am part of the structure of a virtual transport company where we are forty drivers. I really like "Holland Style" trucks, of which I usually collect photographs, so they are usually the type of truck that I drive at a particular level in the simulator.
I will follow your videos from now on (and see the old ones). I wish you all your future trips to be as happy as possible.
A greeting!!
Super g very nice
Thank you very much 😊👍
Keep it going pls!!
I promise I will, thank you 😊👍
are you allowed to drive with spikes in Denmark?
Yes from November 1st till 1st of April 👍
In Italy we actually dont have "Spaghetti Bolognese". It doesnt matter, i like your videos, this is the third i watch and i hope to find more :-) Greetings from Rome Italy :-)
Great video! How they pay you? Is it based on hours or miles?
It's a combination of both, according to the danish agreement of export driving traffic 👍
Hope you make enough money!
Sweet!
Thank you Donna 😊👍 long time no see!! I hope everything is fine in your end of the world?
@@Slipse Yes sir Flemming, we are cozy here in rural Oregon. Thanks for asking. And your video was such a wonderful distraction in our sea of boredom. Your music selection was just dynamite, along with the scenery. Just fantastic. Thanks again my friend. We're looking forward to the next time we can ride along with Slipses. :)
If there are no truck stops etc and you stay out at night, i am guessing you do not switch off the engine, how much fuel are you carrying?? From an ignorant car driver.
It depends on the temperature, whether I leave the engine running overnight, below minus 15 degrees C, it let it run, set the rpm to around 800 and let the cab heater running as well, otherwise the engine won't keep up the working temperature.
With full tanks, I have 850 liters.
At 800 rpm the engine uses around 3 liters an hour 😉 i hope this answer, made you a little wiser.. Otherwise, ask again 😉👍
god film.. men kunne man ikk snart se lidt af alt det andet du laver?? som sidder fast i sneen eller skal have snekæder på osv
Hejsa 😊 alt er jo lidt en balance gang, jeg har flere gange tænkt på at, næste gang der skal lægges kæder på, så skal jeg huske at filme.. MEN, tit og ofte, så er det noget som skal gå tjept, det er dårligt vejr og som regel også bælgragende mørkt..
Så det er indtil nu, bare blevet til et foto hist og pist..
Det med at sidde fast, det bruger jeg ikke... 😉😁
@@Slipse nej det skal du jo sige.. men engang skal jo være den første ikk.. men håber du fanger en video af det en gang.
So what speeds you traveling at?
It varies a lot, depending on the temperature, but normally I'd do around 80km/h if there's below minus 8 degrees C. The colder, the better grip, the worst temperature is around 0 degrees C, because the ice and snow gets wet, and way more slippery..
That's why England comes to standstill when it snows because it's never cold enough. 25 years driving artics in U.K and Europe but never got to your part of the world until I took a driving holiday in a classic car. Great driving roads.
