Unimog is an all weather,all terrain and remarkably reliable wheeled vehicle. I hav been using 1.25 ton Unimog in 1984-88 in my youth days. I have love and respect for this wonderful vehicle.
@@daniel-ino Its the black pipe work on the right hand side coming out of the engine bay. It raises the air intake point for the motor so you can cross really deep water and stop the engine. and then restart. You will notice that the exhaust has a raised outlet just behind the cab.

"review" is a very generous term. He doesnt have a clue what it is so i dont think he can really review it. Its like asking a horse for its opinion on the baseball game being played in front of him.
They are only good for off road. Unless you really need it you shouldn't take it. They add a lot of unsprung mass to the vehicle, wich reduces the on road capabilities.
We had Unimogs in the army. Great go anywhere vehicles with lots of variants. Good to see them still being sold. You can get them surplus. Expensive to run though.
In the South African army we also had alot of variants, things that didn't even look like, or bear the Mercedes name, but you could see the star on the diff and other suspension parts. :) They went where the 6-wheel armoured vehicle couldn't.
I off-road a lot down in Baja California and I see a lot of these crazy Unimog owners down at the shore. Usually German guys. Unimogs do have a down side: they **can** get stuck and when they do, who’s gonna yank you out? I mean, they weigh over 15,000 pounds. You’d have to find a giant sequoia to use a winch, or drive some rebar through the entire lithosphere. I saw a Unimog get stuck in deep, deep smooth beach pebbles - like ball bearings. Took another Unimog and a G-Wagen to rescue that monster.
I just put a lift kit in my Prius, (yeah, they make them) and gained 1.5" of ground clearance. If I do that a dozen or more times I'd have the same ground clearance the 'hog has! Love the crew cab.
@@working2bselfsufficient724 I didn't think you could buy a new Unimog in the U.S. I think they have to be ten or so years old before they can be brought in, I forget why, maybe they don't meet emissions. If they start with a Unimog that's old enough, the camper would be new, just not the truck.
@@bigredc222 You can't buy a brand new one in USA, but someone else can (there's groups that buy them for you outside USA and import them for a small fee). They're $369k from Mercedes plus import n fee to group who handles them. It's not easy but if you have the money it can be done. I'm not 100% sure on the loopholes or how the groups get threw the legalities but they do for a fee.
@@bigredc222 I'd also buy an older one n build a new camper. Can get an older unimog running in USA for $15k and up. Wouldn't cost more than $20k to build a camper box since they arnt huge.
Never sleep under a heavy vehicle, they can sink down and squash the fuck out of you. No tank crew ever sleeps under the vehicle, unless on hard solid concrete.
I road in unimugs from 1977 to 1980 during my first hitch in Germany in the Army. This unimug is more capable and looks fun to drive. It's amazing to see how far technology has taken this vehicle.
This is the G Wagen’s big brother, which used to do professional weightlifting until he got outed for steroid use. He never won a race in his life, but he also never used the reverse gear once in his life.
That's a big tractor enclosed in a truck body. If I would park that next to my silverado 4x4 , it would probably run away and hide. What a amazing truck. Mercedes always impress me G6 3-axle wagon , the X class , etc..... Cool.
What motor and gearbox have, and autonomy and fuel tank capacity, and if the gearbox has to attach accessories such as power take-off for fire pump or drag winch. Very good
While on a posting to Bruggen ,I’m truly sorry if I’ve spelt it wrong, anyhoo some squaddies from the west German army came for a visit and it was my introduction to the beautiful unimog . The machine has stood the test of time whether it’s in civvie or military design

That Unimog dos'nt have to prove a thing . It is brilliant .

I have love and respect for this wonderful vehicle.
Amazing video. No silly music or anything dumb video effects. Just pure car and that's what I like !
Thank you pal for this video !
Thanks! ❤❤❤
I love 💘 it!!!! This wonderful truck is a legend and deserves to be eternal!!!!
and has a snorkel, just in case you need to cross a 10' deep river
a what?
@@daniel-ino "raised air intake" If that says something for you
@@daniel-ino Its the black pipe work on the right hand side coming out of the engine bay. It raises the air intake point for the motor so you can cross really deep water and stop the engine. and then restart. You will notice that the exhaust has a raised outlet just behind the cab.
River by my house is 11’ deep. I guess this MOG is not the right one for me.
THE BEST!
I owned my first Unimog back in the 90's in Africa and since then, I am hooked. Unimog or nothing when offroading.
What’d you use it for? I’m envious
3:39 who else was like: Oh sh*t the stairs the stairs...well I told you didn't I...
And at 3:43 : wait whaaaaat
that's German engineering for ya
I love the sticker on the hood: "Der Alleskönner" it's German for "The Can-do-everything". It's just spot on, as these things are unstoppable.
Love this vehicle, wish i had one....looks like a beast!
I have a 1971 unimog 416. I drove through 3ft of snow last winter without my tire chains.
This is literally like being in god mode when off-roading.
its unreal that its like not even trying with all this...

It is very capable. Once a vehicle like this does get stuck, it will require another equally capable and heavy vehicle to come to the rescue.
Tell you flip her over on her side because she's Mighty tall and mighty heavy
Top speed: 35 mph... While towing 35 tons!
Who else came here after watching Doug DeMuro review a Unimog ?
Does it count if it's a few weeks later and you've watched a heap of other videos including other Doug videos in between?
Guilty.
I do
"review" is a very generous term. He doesnt have a clue what it is so i dont think he can really review it. Its like asking a horse for its opinion on the baseball game being played in front of him.
Guilty as charged.
Love the portal axles, and the way the engine sounds!
Looks like it doesn't have portal axles.
@@zeeshannagori007 All Unimogs have portal axles.
This is just a Tonka toy for grown men who never grew up. Now TAKE MY MONEY!
You don't stop playing because you grow old. You grow old because you stop playing.
You said it wrong, it's "TAKE MY MONEY, NOW!!!"
LMAO
If I had the money, I would have one. Wouldn't have to worry about anyone parking to close to you in the carpark anymore
Alex Glen oh yess, but then is not an Unimog, and that’s what makes all the difference, only some people will be able to understand this.😊
Thats not at all a "toy" thats absolute top technology that has proven itself for decades - you can hardly buy anything better off the shelf.
That's not just a machine it's a damn beast.
Awesome.
It is an Unimog
What I learned from this is that flexible steps on my Subaru would be a nice addition.
Unimog: Simply the best production 4-wheel drive vehicle made! Nice video. Fabulous vehicle!
the best off roader you can see
I love that it has portal axels. Trucks in America need this!!
They are only good for off road. Unless you really need it you shouldn't take it. They add a lot of unsprung mass to the vehicle, wich reduces the on road capabilities.
Love the engineering, the proportions, the sound, everything...
when you drive this TRUCK every restaurant is DRIVE THRU.. 😂
Best comment ever😂
Absolute BEAST! so cool
قطعة هندسية جميلة متوحشة قوية فخمة ماشاء الله اللهم ارزقنا مثلها يا رب تحفة فنية رائعة وتمتاز بالقوة والجمال أحبها

Как всегда держит марку Мерседес👍👍👍мечта для путешествий
I live in country Australia - AND I WANT ONE!
I would even drive it into the city for fun.
Man that thing is a monster!
I've wanted one for 12 years now. Maybe someday :)
I had an old Unimog when I lived in Germany. I love the new ones, but I have to make 500K to afford one
I would absolutely LOVE to have one of these!!!!💗

That is a beautiful rig 👍👍
My lexus would be beeping telling me I'm about to hit a curb 😂
All u need is a set of 35 BFG km3 on your LEXUS

They build them, they cost about 1/4 million dollars and up.

First thing thing I do when I win the lottery, on my way to the Ferrari dealer I stop at Mercedes and order one of these.
Now THAT'S a BIG BOY pick up truck!!
With that ground clearance, you don't need tents on your outdoor expeditions.
Never sleep under a heavy vehicle, they can sink down and squash the fuck out of you. No tank crew ever sleeps under the vehicle, unless on hard solid concrete.

If I could afford it, definitely would buy one of these just as a fun rock-crawling/outdoors vehicle.
And I would use it as a camper
Those rubber laders are genius.
Ama Bos absolutely, I cringed when I saw them fold😅 and smiled when they straightened out😆
Great video
For the Post-Apocalypse billionaire who still wants to drive a vehicle with a 3-pointed Star. This thing makes a G-Wagon look like a wimp.
Or for tinder dates, i'm gonna pick you up in the merc :-D

Best Geländewagen der Welt 🔥🔥🔥🔥💎
People in London want this to drop kids to school and go to work in office
And since it's London with no parking they can just park on top of other cars haha

Can you buy these in the USA and how much?
Zürich too

A bit of a soft roader video for what these beasts are really capable off...

It's like that Toy car I had as a child. Could do just anything.😀
