Big Rigs and Roadtrains

Watch in H.D.!
Driving roadtrains in Australia, what we see and do.
See a 240 ton 2,500 HP dump truck and some heavy-haul Macks.
Cab ride in my Kenworth roadtrain powered by 18 liter Caterpillar 3408 V8.

I've never seen a prime mover with 3 sets of driving wheels, lots of wheels on the load. That cheeky bird was probably looking for dead bugs. Great video again.

@DownUnderDoug There's a lot of tri-drives in the NT and in the north of WA.

Once again mate another great video, can you do a vid on you using the engine brake I'd like to hear what it sounds like

[gm16v149]

@MrKenwortht908 It's got a CAT Brakesaver, a hydraulic unit like on scraper or dump truck, you can hear it going down hill in my vid "Like Big V8s"

I loved the airplane landing near the truck stop. Also the Oversize load passing, I do have to do that once in awhile, but only with a front escort, 10-4.

@TruckerWarren The boat was light compared to my load, it did have a front escort because anything over 3.5 meters wide has to have one, probably the same as you guys in the U.S. What did you think of the platform trailer behind the tri-drive Mack Titan, Warren?

@visti1 It is just as well it's got a good air conditioner because it is very hot at the moment (40C). Enjoy your winter over there.
