@CptCumshot haha well it was meant as a joke. But I'm still right. You think an old 281 could keep up with a car? Really any car, but the Valiant wasn't really a joke of a car. No less, up a MOUNTAIN. Is it realistic? No. Does it make a good movie that I personally love? Yes, no doubt.
@CptCumshot oh this is funny, I thought this video was actually for the movie Duel, rather than a spoof commercial based off it. Regardless, my point stands. The allroad v8 in the liberal S4 spec produces about 340bhp/300lb-ft. I'm going to say a loaded truck and trailer is about 70,000lbs. There is no way that that little v8 could pull it up the hill that fast, if at all. I don't know alot about trucks, but I'll take an estimated guess and say that a truck like that has about 500bhp/1100lb-ft.
@CptCumshot I don't know if you have traveled, or have ever lived in a mountainous/hilly area, but have you ever gotten stuck behind a truck trying to climb a steep face like this? They have enough trouble as it. Even if you hit a hill on the highway those things slow right down. If a truck like that has approximately 2-3 times as much torque as the little Audi, you think the Audi will somehow be able to do it FASTER than what is normal?
Ok the track is a little bit hilly. Starting a pull in such a region would be difficult. But most people just don't have the right sense for what you really need to pull a heavy weight. First of all it's torque you need and a very low range transmission. Also the pulling car itself has to be very heavy, too. Otherwise there would be a lag of grip. There was also a challenge whether a Touareg could pull a Boeing 747. Have a look on youtube!
@CptCumshot I do have a good sense of what a car can and cannot do. And it should be noted that a man has been able to move an airliner as well, so seeing a V10 TDI with like 700lb-ft of torque pulling a slightly larger jet isn't altogether impressive. Furthermore I'm not talking about merely budging a trailer and truck. I'm talking about being able to move at the speed and agility shown in the video, which is what i based my original comment off of. It's unrealistic.
not to mention effective tractive efforth of a light sport(ish) car, lack of low range ears, lack of tire that can handle all of it. one thing is engine power/tourqe, but the intresting part is what goes to them wheels. even a 2 hp scoter can pull a truck on a hill, given it has enough effective tractive efforth and a proper gear ratio. it will just beee wee bit slow :D this video is actualy a sux0r in term of ANY realism.
@Maul9999 Actually something like this really happened, maybe 25 years ago. Someone dragged a broken semi truck uphill over a mountainroad. With an Audi.
@kariboobins Holy cow, I saw scenes from that movie (Duel) when I was a kid, but I didn't remember enough of it to look it up, and I couldn't remember the title. Thank you so much!!!!
@StanOfGB there's a guy who pulled a Boeing 747 and a freight train only with his own strength. Even though he was an extremely strong guy, he had less power then a car and the plane and train both were way heavier then a semi...
Nice commercial, except allroad audi can't tow that truck that weighs ten times more. This is fakes bs audi commercial I've ever seen. Maybe new Q7 with V12 diesel could tow that, but transmission and other crap will be toast after doing that.
Besides, those big trucks have big diesels that put out 300-500 HP and 1500-2000pound -feet out torque. This kind of power can literally move the house off its foundation.
@inurik of course it is BS !! but i'm sure it cant tow it on a straight road without problems.. i had a Toyota Hilux 2.4 Diesel and i towed a 35 ton rig on a straight asfalt road without problems.
Yup. That was the first thing I thought :D I belive it was inspired by this movie and ment to be seen this way. First you start finding similarities and then - NO, buddy, it's not what you were thinking! :D
How about the one thats more reliable, better built, more comfortable, better looking, is better off road because it actually has 4WD, actually has an interior you'd want to be in, has more seats, can have stuff put in the back without it getting nicked, is less expensive on tax, is more economical, is more fun to drive, is faster, is better handling and doesn't make you look like a half-assed redneck with an IQ of 3?
Yeah, I think the Allroad just about wins that one
per chi non lo sapesse, il filmato riprende uno dei primi film di steven spielberg, in cui vi era un camion che continuava ad inseguire un'auto, e questa non riusciva a seminarlo :)
The main problem is: Dumb people do not understand the things. It's normal, study a little more, see more cult movies like Pier Pasolini and soon you will see what's the sense of the simple things.
The car is not heavy to pull the truck and trailer that fast fake
