  • what a completely worthless load of propaganda bullshit.

    a self propelled mower would pull that... if u gear it low enough and give it traction! this proves nothing at all apart from the fact that some poor bugger has purchased a demo amarok with a half fucked transmission.

    

  • @IntertubeTr0ll , Its about the car you dick , get a life you prick and stop using such bad language on the net. Rude and horrible people like you deserve to be shot. I bet you have an ugly head on you!!!! sitting a desk saying that makes for a big man.

  • problems with this ute 2 much load bends the chassie

  • @bluedog382 You're also wrong, it's an AB triple.

  • For the average viewer this is remarkable footage (the towing nerds will always have something to say), only let down by not having the reaction of the six fellas on camera when the trucks pull away.

  • and for the record, the Trendline 4x4 HAS a low range transfer case. its just like in the Colorado, its a push button setup. yes a Cruiser would pull it, but thats not the point. yes the truck might've been empty, but the prime mover grosses 14 tonnes, each trailer is about 20 ish tonnes. so yeah 32 tonnes would be about right. grosses 125.7 tonnes.

  • unbloody believeable, 550nm of torque outta a 2.0L twin turbo diesel....the big Mack was near on 1200nm of torque. and its a 15L Cummins motor! i'd believe it..even if it is set up.

  • Thats bullsh!t! it wouldnt pull that much!

  • 32 tonnes on that chain ??? All the Amarok did was to overcome the rolling resistance of the "load". I think a far less powerful vehicle would pull that load , provided there's traction. Aren't there vids of strongmen pulling these big loads ?

    Rather do a tug of war test against another type of 4x4 or something. That said , I like the 4motion drive configuration of the Amarok !

  • @shellybeachresort I'm very sorry for insulting your Husband.
