2021 U5023 UNIMOG MAKES 4X4 TRACK TOO EASY!

No intro, no fluffy voice over hyping it up, just 4x4 content and the Unimog doing what it does best!
Everyone comparing their Toyota Yaris' capabilities to the most capable 4x4 vehicle in the world, feel free to join us for the next Sunday drive HAHAH! We all know that video's don't do the track justice, but moreso, the Unimogs make the tracks look like a stroll in the park!

The UNIMOG - UNIversal-MOtor-Gerät - is one of the coolest and best cars in the world. period!

[@TruBluOffroad]

This makes it even more fun to watch all the videos of people struggling and making a mess of their cars on these very same hills.

I've driven a late 60s Unimog offroad, it was a beast. It went everywhere I pointed it and rode like a car.

Yes they are fun to drive 👍

[@warkal868]

Main advantage over, any other 4wd, Portal Axles and it's size for ground clearance. It's a beast though!

[@MarkoVukovic0]

Yes, except it's not the only vehicle with portal axles.

[@albertpohl7145]

Yes, a lovely beast. Friendly greetings from Warsaw in Poland to Unidan and all 4x4-lovers.

[@Smokeyr67]

Yep, apart from the torque, gearing, ramp angles, it's only the portals that give the Mog and advantage 🤨

Great vid. Good to finally see a Unimog vid on YT with proper offroad and driving to match. For comparison, how did the lead car (Patrol?) manage getting up that last section? And for interests sake, would love to see how it goes laden.

[@unidanengineering]

Thanks for the comment! The lead car was a highly modified 2003 GU Patrol with bead locks, lockers and reduction gears, the list goes on. They did everything that we did, however there was definitely a lot more shuffling around the track and choosing different lines as they progressed up the hill, more revving etc. Whereas in the Mog we just picked our gear, picked our line and had no trouble getting up anything. Unfortunately, we don't get too much free time to go out testing our vehicles and having fun but we will definitely think about loading her up next time we do!

Drove the 85 to 89 models in the army. I would love to get one as my daily driver. It parked better in McDonald’s car park than a rover ( has brilliant vision of all corners) but the drive thru was not an option.

[@kenfowler1980]

And it could handle anything! I was actually lucky enough to drive the one fitted with high speed axles (for the wynns rally). Yep they are a great vehicle! I remember driving one when there were still a lot on international F1’s around and out the back of NSW a heap were stuck in the mud. I turned up with a ‘mog and someone said “you won’t get that through there” pointing to the bogged F1’s no worries I said and put it in low range diff lock and got through easy!

As Boas Novas da Palavra de Deus para vocês ( a salvação é pela fé em Jesus ) "Porque Deus amou o mundo de tal maneira que deu o seu Filho unigênito, para que todo aquele que nele crê não pereça, mas tenha a vida eterna. Quem crê no Filho tem a vida eterna; ( João, 3:16,36 ) "Ele vos vivificou, estando vós mortos nos vossos delitos e pecados, Porque pela graça sois salvos, por meio da fé, e isto não vem de vós, é dom de Deus; não vem das obras, para que ninguém se glorie. Porque somos feitura sua, criados em Cristo Jesus para boas obras, as quais Deus antes preparou para que andássemos nelas." ( Efésios, 2:1,8-10 ) Depois de salvo pela fé em Jesus e em seu sacrifício na cruz, o crente é deixado aqui para ocupar o lugar que Jesus ocupou, ou seja, ser um testemunho de Deus em um mundo corrompido pelo pecado, e interceder pela salvação de seus habitantes. Esta é a "carteira de identidade" de um verdadeiro discípulo de Jesus: o amor pelas pessoas. O verdadeiro cristão ama porque Deus o amou primeiro. Ele quer que outros pecadores sejam salvos, porque ele próprio, um pecador, foi alcançado pela misericórdia de Deus. O amor é uma consequência da salvação recebida, não o contrário. As religiões humanas colocam o amor como condição para se receber a salvação. A caridade do homem religioso pode parecer piedade, mas é interesseira. Ele ama o próximo porque acredita que isso irá contar pontos em sua salvação. A Lei dada a Moisés dizia "amarás ao teu próximo como a ti mesmo". Jesus, porém, diz aos que já são salvos: "Amai a vossos inimigos, bendizei os que vos maldizem, fazei bem aos que vos odeiam, e orai pelos que vos maltratam e vos perseguem". Para quê? Para ser salvo? Não, mas por já ter sido salvo e não ter sido tratado por Deus com o rigor que merecia. Ao crer em Jesus você recebe o que não merecia: a salvação. E fica livre de receber o que merecia: a condenação eterna. "Respondeu-lhe Jesus: Eu sou o caminho, e a verdade, e a vida; ninguém vem ao Pai, senão por mim." ( João, 14:6 ) "Em verdade, em verdade vos digo que quem ouve a minha palavra, e crê naquele que me enviou, tem a vida eterna e não entra em juízo, mas já passou da morte para a vida." ( João, 5:24 ) "Porque, se com a tua boca confessares a Jesus como Senhor, e em teu coração creres que Deus o ressuscitou dentre os mortos, será salvo; Porque: Todo aquele que invocar o nome do Senhor será salvo." ( Romanos, 10:9,13 )

I think you would be surprised at how steep that climb actually is, how high those ledges are and deep the trenches are. Most 4WD drive sedans even if heavily modified would struggle taking the line the Mog took.

[@TowieHD]

@@unidanengineering can't fault you there lol.

[@downhilldick]

Just out of interest, how easy do you think that would have been in your U218 UGE?

[@unidanengineering]

The majority of these tracks would have been do-able in the UGE Unimog range. We wouldn't take any of the UGE range up the hill climbs in the last 2 clips as these were a lot steeper than they appear in the video and there was some quite big step ups that would very likely take out the radiator housing due to the lower ramp over of these Unimogs.

[@KaizenOz]

@@unidanengineering I went 4x4 for the first time on these tracks in my Jimny, the climbs are very steep in person, Unimog killed it! 👍

[@shreckm6470]

[@garysarratt1]

Looks top-heavy

[@unidanengineering]

Definitely not. The Unimog's have a low centre of gravity with a tipping angle of 38 degrees.

[@Hipporider]

I can't imagine how expensive this truck must be. At a stretch, I'll be able to afford a an old 1980s ADF truck 🇦🇺

[@unidanengineering]

The ex-ADF Mog's are a heap of fun and will get you to some pretty extreme places. The majority of our previous vehicles (and most that we still have) are ADF and most of our customers are in these old girls. Definitely can't discredit them.

[@blackchallis]

[@dumdumbrown4225]

Perfect base for a 4WD off-road motor home - I wonder if it’ll pull all that extra weight, though

[@givemespace2742]

Well bearing in mind that it's just a platform for a huge array of add ons and attachments I would say that adding accommodation on the back would be no big deal. I think it's big shortcoming would be that it's probably not a good economical highway cruiser.

Cool to see a unimog can go anywhere a stock 4x4 on 33s can

[@RichardFermion]

True, however remember the unimog as a platform can get much larger GVWR payloads so for specialized off-road needs (fire, science exploration, etc..) it's a good fit. Niche vehicle is all.

[@kerrylee4633]

The Unimog can go everywhere the stock 4×4 on 33s can go while hauling a broken stock 4×4 on 33s.

[@mikem9331]

And pulling another.

[@roscored1000]

If people say that most of the tracks around the world have been cut using a landrover or toyota landcruiser eg, the track on this beast must make it harder to drive on those tracks as it would be constantly riding over the banks, is that a fair statement or just another bush story?

[@unidanengineering]

On the contrary, having the wider track means that you can straddle the bog holes that people have caused in their less-capable 4WD's. You'll see throughout the video, there were a lot of places that we went which would have been quite harsh for a standard 4x4, but with our wider track, we went through it seamlessly.

[@roscored1000]

Is there any way to get this truck in USA? import ?

[@unidanengineering]

As far as we are aware, no. The import laws in the US prohibit these vehicles to be imported. However, we also do conversions and restorations of the old Unimog and bring them up to look very much like a new Unimog, as well as increasing the drive comfort etc.. These older restorations can be imported.

[@TomaszbtdZiobrowski]

ruts? what ruts 😀

[@PaganiZondaF650hp]

Did the other vehicles behind it leaving loads of room really think a Unimog would have to back up or bail at some point?

Better to be safe than sorry, I suppose. Plus, you don't want to form bad habits and become complacent and then when you are in a less ideal situation, get yourself into strife.

That's the beauty of a powerful engine with simple ladder frame construction, much much better than unibody construction

[@unidanengineering]

?? The Unimog does not have a ladder frame construction. The torque tube suspension and unique chassis design allow it to be more capable off road.

[@kylefuhrman305]

Your both right!!! "Unlike a traditional truck, the Unimog makes use of an unusual ladder frame that sacrifices rigidity for flexibility. The suspension makes use of torque tubes, transverse links, and coil springs that allow for a fantastic degree of articulation, ensuring that the wheels remain in contact with the ground even when forced at extreme angles."

To be fair, it could have done all that just the same with a landcruiser strapped on to it

[@unidanengineering]

And that's 100% what we tell everyone we talk to. Sure, other vehicles can do it but the Unimog will still be able to do it with several tonnes of gear on it, and even towing (as long as the trailer is just as capable). I'd love to see a standard 4x4 do the same. Oh wait, it'd be stuck at the weigh bridge with a fine.

@@doskraut We weren't saying these are 'hectic' tracks. People ask for more content all the time, this is what we give them because this is our local track. Sorry we're flat out running an actual business and don't have time to be KZbin 'influencers' getting the right angles so that these tracks look insane. If we were true KZbinr's we would be on the same track but the angles, sound effects and our commentary would make everyone think we had just conquered the unachievable (but hat's off to people who do KZbin full time and have the passion to make money out of their art). What we are trying to show is not "omg look we got up, that was sooo hard", we're showing that somewhere that is difficult for a standard 4x4 is a walk in the park for a Unimog. It's a niche vehicle, built for purpose and majority of our customers and viewers 'purpose' is not to find the most difficult track and get through it. It's to travel anywhere they want and know that the vehicle will do it with ease, safely and they can take their home away from home with them.

You wouldn't lose any customers, anybody who can afford your product will be coming to you like a bee line anyway.😃 I'm one of those people who is sure that it is all about tyres. I bought my U1300L around 13-14 years ago and used to run it on Salisbury plain (yes you used to be able to go virtually everywhere the tanks go back then) In that white chalk on New Michelin XZL she performed brilliantly...going wherever the tanks had been, without any real effort......but, I then moved to eastern Poland, where the soil is a poor mix of sand and clay (leaves a blue residue when it dries) and those tyres were dreadful...literally no grip at all......I replaced them with same size Michelin loader tyres (Chevron tread) and the difference was amazing. So to me a lot of it is about tyres, yes a fancy airing down system is good, but on clay, you can't beat chevron treads.
