8x8 Mercedes-Benz, Tatra in Truck trial, Off-Road | Teuchern, Germany, 2018

[@Fix_It_Again_Tony]

I think a couple things to keep in mind is that I don't think this is exactly what these trucks are for. The are work horses meant to carry loads over terrain not quite this extreme. Just think about how easily a typical 18 wheeler can get stuck. I've seen only a couple inches of mud or snow completely incapacitate a typical truck like you'd see in the US. Also, some of the features are probably much larger than they look. Those truck are already huge and some of those rocks still look big. I give these drivers a lot of credit. I bet this is much harder than some of these commenters make it out to be.

[@dougbourdo2589]

Absolutely True. Thank you.

[@juanrosales3040]

Tatra super campeón, buenas imágenes. Saludos.

[@erwin770]

Thanks for keeping the original sound.

[@ashishkumar6574]

Very duggy

[@mickmeadows]

Very cool! Would love to do that! I used to drive a Merc Actros but never in 8x8 form! Awesome!

[@Xxx-ji1en]

3:20 diesel power :) we love you Greta :)

[@beltfed4624]

Silky dirt, 15 tons, and 8 wheel drive means you'll just dig a hole and bury your truck... Fewer wheels, lighter weight, and tires with specific offroad traction means you'll go offroad and have fun, not bury your truck. I'm from the heart of offroad country.

[@rechtschreibungistsexy2202]

No one is interested in your opinion.

[@BobSmith1980.]

I would love to drive one of these

[@himaa382]

Last night I downloaded Snow⭐️Runner and today I’m watching this 😊

[@johnossendorf9979]

I'm a proponent of the K.I.S.S. method, so I like the solid axle leaf sprung trucks my self. Less moving parts to break.

[@joshquiroz]

That Mercedes didn’t do too bad. Tatra’s always strong in these competitions.

[@Yoksell-Moksell]

Маленькое шасси, большой вес. Немного поработать в этих правлениях и успех гарантирован.

Excellent videography, thank you for original sound rendition.

[@hugolafhugolaf]

4 axles, 8 super aggressive tires, 4 lockers, and yet it seems to be spinning helplessly a lot of the time.

[@Mike-gz4xn]

Weight and not perfect approach angle contributes though it is a great truck for hauling stuff off road.

[@themeatpopsicle]

no spotters, straight-up boulder fields, near-vertical climbs from standing starts, BACKING UP those same inclines, bulldozing dirt... this is near-impossible stuff with ANY vehicle, much less an 8x8 truck

[@cg-zp5qt]

Over weight plus some of the inclines are very steep not many vehicles can make it up look at the American hill climbing they are much smaller plus more power and better tires and still have trouble on alot of the hills

[@phun4379]

Tatra is one of the best trucks. The front design makes it primitive looking.

[@kroffustsnail]

This made me consider playing Spintires again... then after a couple minutes I remembered why I stopped

[@jaromor8808]

why did you stop?

[@boomstickkid]

fuck spintires is awesome

[@grofslov]

Tatra the best trucks....

[@cintaNKRI2023]

What is this? Amazing truck... It's the great and amazing truck gaes!

[@khairulnaim9458]

Good,👍👍👍👍

[@hatimsalim1355]

Whatever nothing like the mighty powerful Zetros and it has it all

[@lutsifer5847]

Where's the Benz by the rocks? You only see Tatras. Are Benz just for the sandpit and break apart on rocks?

[@SupFromCz]

TATRA concept wins! Rigid backbone tube with swinging semi-axles at the rear giving independent suspension is in truck unique!

[@tofiktofik4598]

[@camojoe83]

That green TATRA is awesome.

Excelentes veículos, para estradas brasileiras,principalmente, na região amazônica, na estação das chuvas.

😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

[@schmojo33]

Why do people just sit there spinning tires and digging themselves in?

[@prm414]

To make it more difficult for the next competitor, ??

[@jon-rras3799]

I think the MB at 3:50 tried to shovel the sand to the left side of the vehicle so he wouldn't slide down that hill and hit the pole.

[@JEEPmanDAVE]

Joe Hanson I think it’s just how they offroad over seas? It seems really common over there

[@ripvanwinkle9648]

Notice the wooden stakes? It's an obstacle course. Try re-watching the video while observing that they are avoiding hitting the stakes as much as possible while going through others just slightly wider than the vehicle. They're plowing dirt in order to make room to turn around and make it through the next set of stakes. Myself, I was rather impressed by the skill of many of these drivers to maneuver such a massive vehicle through quite a tight course.

[@pavolkucera3153]

Tatra 813 ist top!

[@neroxi69]

both of this machine i like ...

[@sreeragsr878]

Its wheel alignment makes an OCD guy, Sick...

[@josemarino4270]

Are these trials or truck torture!!

[@petanisambilngopi]

Nice.good

[@sitatan]

Awesome driving force. I want it, but it is expensive and I can not buy it. Thank you from Japan.

[@davidbranum6628]

Amazing 🤩

[@sulemanshah94]

From the display picture i thought the video was on RCs.. i have been watching too many i think @_@

[@AdamSmith-vq7do]

mercedes i good, but Tatra is better muhehehe

[@cuprum166]

It’s uncomfortable 😣 to watch how they do damage to the underside of the vehicle when driving above loose boulders.

[@sangitasharma8829]

They don't 😈

[@villijs33321]

Tatra's the best...

[@marekant7776]

What is the goal of this competition? How are the runs scored?

[@wouterash]

i think as few maneuvres and hitting poles as possible

[@GLMtr]

Those little wooden planks sticking from ground are gates they have to cleanly drive thru if they touch them they get penalties.

[@drongojonkins8945]

To get stuck as quickly as possible. Bonus points for taking out the diff cases on big rocks.

[@alexandersenna3532]

[@BramBiesiekierski]

2:09 - why is the driveshafts spinning the opposite way of the wheel rotation. ???

[@pitalbc]

Maybe because of portal axle? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal_axle

[@tallll70]

now i'm curious as well, maybe there is some gearing there

[@tutekohe1361]

It has hub reduction gearboxes in each hub- reverses the direction of rotation.

[@gwhiten2158]

What the hell is this ? 8 wheel trucks getting stuck ? Not the typical German way

[@ravibhaliya4812]

super 👍👍

[@nedern]

They should use the winch some more!

[@axdicaire]

Why go over the bump when you can just level it

[@kwadwoankomah6997]

They only testing the capabilities.

[@wianshi]

[@tutekohe1361]

I wonder if a torque converter type powershift transmission would be a help. Allison make some great powershift transmissions that would easily stand up to this type of punishment. At the least it would eliminate engine stalling. Perhaps it's a rule in this competition to use a manual transmission?

[@Abhitips224]

Yes manual is still a thing fyi. Requires real skill.

[@MagnetOnlyMotors]

4:00 how long does it take a Mercedes driver to get that it won’t back up any more?

[@tomast9034]

hope dies last :D

[@jiritichy6855]

In my opinion, this is a competition of idiocy.....the vehicles need larger wheels, or tracks like buldozer, period. Problem solved....This reminds me of trying to cut down redwoods with pocket knife. :-(

[@drunkmike9943]

its not about how many wheels you got a 4 wheel drive with 1200 hp and right gearing would make this look easy

[@bigredc222]

Those crazy tube frame high hp rock crawling buggies would blast right through this course, but the point is, can you get a truck through the coarse.

[@hhvsis188]

Mercedes is a great track, but the elk is sitting at the wheel! at times it seems that he purposefully travels so stupidly so that the Tatra in the eyes of the people would look like a cool truck!

[@aaronclausen654]

Why not use something with proper tank tracks rather than try to turn a truck into a tank? Surely tank tracks far out perform these things?

[@gustavlicht9620]

Stupid question, why do these trucks have so big front overhang?

[@Nik.Coffman]

Electric power is going to take this sport and rock crawling by storm. Prove me wrong. . . . . .

[@GodRam1988]

Nik Coffman maybe diesel electric. The weight in batteries would be a disadvantage so would cost.

[@lordsaladin8903]

Almost as if big heavy trucks weren't meant for this kind of off road use, regardless of how many drive or steer axles you have.

[@timhaartnet7805]

Search "Alaskan land train" and you'll see much bigger that wouldn't flinch

[@askaralabaev6845]

[@bodgaard]

I'm trying to figure out what the fuck these guys are trying to do; get stuck, not get stuck, break their truck, demonstrate how not to drive, what?......

[@maxxjettfilms6322]

Put some weight in the back, then do some tug of wars. Then they can spin tires without ruining traction

[@sharp1977]

Just buy a Sherp

[@miroslavizebegovich8072]

Cool, how do I buy one of these trucks, and are the 8x8s unimogs?

I made it to 4:30, but couldn’t watch anymore. Horrible driving, made the trucks look bad.

[@bigredc222]

That's funny.

[@xpro2009]

Hardly do anything else than destroy the strip they travel. Trucks are meant to carry heavy loads. These trucks are empty, yet couldn't do much. Is it the driver?

[@jakeelperro3876]

Claro, puedes tener un vehículo con tracción 20x20, pero si no lleva peso encima no va trepar ninguna subida por más llana que sea 😒

[@Thomes-Maisling]

I don't see the point of it. Just makes me wince at the needless damage they do to their expensive vehicle.

[@rechtschreibungistsexy2202]

It's truck trial. They have to go through Parcours marked by gates to get points while avoiding minus points.
