Got to say it.., take a bow "Brett Marsh Transport no-8' at 6:39..... that is a master class lesson in how its done right..!! perfect gear selected for maximum engine brake effectiveness = perfect road speed so not even a dab on the brakes was required... well done Sir.., total farkin awesomeness right there..!!
Great post thanks Will sadly in time this windy road will be no more a very tight road even in a car. I drove old Britsh fuel tankers over this road back in the 70s these new trucks just handle this hill so well lots of power, its hsows just how much heavy traffic goes over this bit of the road. However as a motorcyclist loved this road knew whereyou could wind the bike out. Great to see many of our local carriers in this video. Seeing the JD Hickman truck I used to cart fuel further on to Mahoenui where they had a garage and a small fleet of trucks
Thanks Merle for sharing some of your memories, Mt Messenger has quite a bit of history with my family as well the Warren Family i love driving my truck over this bit of road yes one day it will be gone cheers Will
this is grand prix racing ...for BIG RIGS. Never seen so many hairpin turns on a roadway traversed by so many semis. This is "A" team driving right here.
Man they sure love twin steer rigs over there! I wonder how the weight laws work in that part of the world. I notice rigs over there have far more axles on the ground then we do here in the states!
+Marc Johnson To do with road license charges based on axle loadings - you will notice the rigid trucks with trailers are twin steer while the tractor units with articulated trailers (like the B train at 7 minutes and low loader at 8 minutes) are single steer.
A perfect example of why this road needs to be done away with and either an alternate route or tunnel is needed. The road surface is appalling as I'm sure these guys realise. While I love the trucks and the video we need to bring this up to government to change and update their thinking, this kind of road will cost too many lives before long. Thanks for posting enjoyed by all.
Joe Parkes these roads create real drivers, total control, and real truckers love em, not like some who are, and always will be, freeway cowboy wanna-be’s.
Greetings everyone watching, good video,in my opinion that's a truck bash, i just love spending time watching the videos, just one i found,is the corners on the road certain places could be avoided, same places the corners to cut straight, brilliant work keep the videos coming,i am viewing from Dominica,
Used to leave Auckland about 9-30pm on a Thursday Heading for Feilding and just after Taupo used to wait for a Truckee going through the Desert road, because of the ground fog. They used to toot as they went past and switch on their Hazzard light , they would turn them off we got out of the fog to let me know it was clear. Great bunch of blokes
How old is the roadway shown in this video? what would be the percentage of trucks owned by the drivers and what percent owned by a company? Thanks for an outstanding video with a lot of beautiful truck too. enjoyed it very much.
Hi John its a very old road been open from the early 1900 s. I found a link to some info where it is etc. Alot of the trucks in this video are company owned thanks for watching glad you enjoyed, Will en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Zealand_State_Highway_3
Mr. Bishop; Thanks for the info; I will keep looking at the videos on NZ trucking. love those big rigs: I drove 10 and 20 ton rigs when I was in Vietnam five speeds hi/lo range transmission but they could pull. thanks again. god bless.
+AndreiTupolev 44,000kg everywhere, 50,000 to 62,000+ on certain routes. In practice most trucks go no higher than 50,000kg as there are few places where they can run over that. As for the axles the more they run the less they pay in road tax.
Hey mr. Bisho graet That video. I love to See It. One question i could have a opportuny for to Word over there. I am driver the truck here in my country.
@Berhan Tsegaye ok, thank you for your explanation. I work in a Transport Company in Germany and we have DAF. At 700.000 kms they still work very fine..
@Berhan Tsegaye Sorry!Don't believe you! Being a truck-driver mayself,you seem to be an "armchair-general".How many heavy loads under harsh conditions are there in Germany to justify a fleet of trucks.American trucks in general do not meet environment laws in Germany.There is also no supply system to keep these trucks running 24/7. In case I do you wrong,please name your company.By the way:Peterbillt is American Mercedes;Mack is Renault/Volvo.
@@thermidorlevrai65 Just as a said!What's your problem???(Renault also belongs to Volvo;a Renault truck is what a Skoda is to a Volkswagen =98% identical)
Agreed the ones tjqy never touch their brakes and just let the Jake carry you down and the right gear man that's a true trucker that isn't pushing people down the road ,,great job guy's plus your stuff will last longer you look professional and the ones that push are wearing out brakes tires and driving like a asshole and what you got there 5 minutes faster lol ,,that's today's truckers way of thinking today these young punks and it is sad cause 9 times outta 10 they grew up in the trucking cause dad drove or everyone in the family drive and back then you did things proper plus today's Trucks are like driving a car so I mean y'all that grew up with it you should all know better ,,you look silly pushing and people remember oh here comes that asshole lol...I will move over when I can no sense pushing people down the road man,,,have some class and stay off people's ass 10-4 ??? I gotta say you guys over there keep that iron looking beautiful absolutely beautiful!! That's just pure pride driving those and I'm over here in GuelphOntario, Canada!! I'm a hours drive from Toronto Ontario Canada,,u mean there is guys that take pride in their rigs or company's but man the most of it is just a truck,,, not kept like you guys keep your fleets ,,it looks good and professional when the driver pulls up to the customer,but they don't seem to care here it's hurry up go go go,,fuck that man I been doing it to long to run like that and I never really did as I learned from the older guys that cared and wanted to make things last,,your guys trucks there at 6 years old still look brand new ,,ours lol unreal and silly cause you would think these fleets would like to keep there rigs beautiful but nope they don't Keep on trucking boy's and always keep the sunny side up,drive careful be safe and

yea we dont piss around with measly 18 wheelers in New Zealand, we only do the big stuff here.
ken rainy,mountains,soft clay,low population cant have motorways everywhere.
Aussie outback dose it bigger
But those rigs cant run on Kiwi roads.

How much those different combinations are allowed to weight?
Seems like Messenger would be better with some snow and ice.
John Conners deadly combo
Porque caminhões Frontais aí usam aquela grade no parabrisas?
J adore les modèles de camions
They certainly do like their axles there. What weight limits are they allowed to go up to? Those Kenworths sound amazing.
+AndreiTupolev 44,000kg everywhere, 50,000 to 62,000+ on certain routes. In practice most trucks go no higher than 50,000kg as there are few places where they can run over that.

Varinki 50,000 everywhere
Varinki that axles part is very interesting. As you may/may not know in NA it’s to increase capacity. Anyways, very neat, thank you.

What's the windshield guard things and why so many unneeded axles?
Hi Robert the shield is a stone guard. We have twin steer units to carry more weight evenly over our roads. less RUCs or road users charges tax
What is that reflective H sticker for they have on the rear?
there are 2 types, they are for high productivity.1 type is for weight exceeding 44000kg gcm. the other type is for over length.

Because you can..
Tight corners.. More weight
Less damage to roads as well.
