This is very impressive. Pulling that weight but in the snow/ice as well? Wow. Also, big up yourself for helping people out being a nice person.

[@billyy2000]

My dad wrote off my v10 treg last year and I was gutted! One of the best vehicles I have ever owned, had its fair share of issues but when it worked, my God it was a thing of beauty and power!

[@DarksideDevelopments]

For an old bus it does a lot well, hard to drive past a petrol station like, lol

You could tell the first lorry driver was skeptical it was going to do it but in reality you made it look like a piece of cake.

remember its vw audi quattro groupe. if you know the r&d and races the quattro used to win its one of the most advanced 4wd system and vw had a direct injector diesel engine in the mk1 golf releaded in audi in 1989. tdi

[@DarksideDevelopments]

1st direct injection was Audi 80 2.5.

[@IntradeMotors]

@@DarksideDevelopments There was one for sale in new zealand not long ago. if i did not own alteadya mk1 golf diesel i would have had to get it. Forgot to mention the golf was a tdi prototype my mk1 is idi production japan vw had a 3 liter polo prototype also i did see not long ago the golf prototype is in my diesel book.

That is absolutely mint! All the torques!

[@zalpll]

Back when mk1 Touareg was new, he pulled 747, so i guess towing a lorry is a piece of cake.

[@AlcatrazCrylake]

Thats true.^^ But they put more weight in the car for traction.

[@kaicooper5917]

But in the snow? Thats impressive

[@AlcatrazCrylake]

@@kaicooper5917 Snow is with right tires and a flat street not a "big" problem. The Touareg has diff locks as well. In the "mountains" where I life (About 600-800 Meters) some firms have 8x8 trucks. Put some heavy weight on the back and then go pulling trucks up the hill.

[@kaicooper5917]

@@AlcatrazCrylake I know that but at the end of the day there's less traction on snow than on dry tarmac

[@DarksideDevelopments]

It does not have more traction for sure!

last snow in our town last year I helped 25 ish cars, two ambulances and a chimney sweeps van lol.....love my Touareg....

[@MKPerformanceTuning]

The size comparison to what it's pulling is mental

[@SoulTouchMusic93]

Eh, not soo much. His second axle is up and judging by the courtain he has absolutely no pallets on. That thing weights probably 18-19 tons. I got stuck on the loading bay like that once.

[@DarksideDevelopments]

That one was empty but the 1st 44t. you would lift your 2nd axle in the snow anyway loaded or not.

[@SoulTouchMusic93]

@@DarksideDevelopments mate, depends on the weight over those axles. About 5 pallets are enough to make it drop and you ca. Have 26 in a regular trailer. Source, a trucker.

[@davehughes6501]

Axle won't lift if it will overload it, scania have load transfer for the axle but only under 20mph.

[@DarksideDevelopments]

@@SoulTouchMusic93 100% you can override it but lets ignore that the driver said it was 44t and take your word for it!

Beast! So not only do Downton pay their drivers fuck all, not much more than minimum wage, to drive a truck that costs £3k to get your licence for, but they also leave their drivers stranded for 7 hours in the snow? Terrible scumpany!

[@SoulTouchMusic93]

Even worse, they give them dafs to drive.

[@stuartd9741]

In general truck drivers are treated appallingly. It was suggested many years ago. If all the delivery trucks in the UK stopped delivering. The whole country would grind to a halt in 3days...

[@SoulTouchMusic93]

@@stuartd9741 it's not that bad, but if you're paid badly you need to leave! £15/h is doable according to how much you're willing to commute.
