BULLDOZER - Linz to Duisburg - Euro Truck Simulator 2 - ETS2 inc Track IR

[@squirrel]

Thank you for being a great sub. Unfortunately I have to cater for all tastes - not everyone has the time/inclination to watch super-long videos or has a love of trucking. So I mix it up so I can cater for all. Happy trucking =)

Haha. The fenders are the curved bits over the wheels and the trunk is equivalent to the boot, and yes hood is equivalent to the bonnet.

[@lnfomercials]

Dude your voice is so calming, love your vids and you make erts so much more entertaining

Spooked I thought it was just me. His voice makes me fall asleep, (no offence) I have a hard time going to sleep

Fenders are on the front of the vehicle covering the wheels. Quarter panels are on the rear of the vehicle covering the wheels. The hood covering the engine bay = the bonnet. Our trunk = your boot. Thanks for the videos! Cheers!

[@Jvictorbas]

12 hour journey :D

[@classicalmusic3979]

that whould be 1 hour

[@simpsonfanter97]

I like the really long journeys and the commentary is A MUST!

[@mozzmann]

The Scania engines are like CAT engines as they generally a longer stroke making much more torque where the Volvo V8's tend to rev higher and make HP but less torque and as a result lack pulling ability because of it consequently they require a higher HP to achieve a similar drive-ability. So to recap a shorter engine stroke makes a smaller compact engine but less torque , a longer stroke like the Cummins ISX series 6 Cylinder Engines can make as much as 1500 Ft/Lb Torque from 1000 to 2100 RPM with a peak of 400 Hp @ 1650 RPM . Where the Cummins VT903 makes 860 lb.ft Torque @ 1800 RPM and 320 hp @ 2600 RPM Remember these engines are comparable displacement but I know what I'd rather be driving with a heavy load and that is the big 6 due to it's much greater torque lower RPM . Yes you will be swapping cogs a lot but that's the name of the game. remember HP is one thing but for heavy transport and truck weight then Torque is King. You need to get out more mate really A Hood as the yanks call it is as you surmise what we in Oz and you in the UK call a Bonnet ( If not Cab Over ) , a Fender is what you or I would call the mud guard over the Wheel or wheel arch , The Boot as we call it relating to Cars is what the yanks call a Trunk presumably because the wagons from years gone by had a large trunk across the back of the wagon :) Oh driving that weight in the Snow at that speed is asking for trouble even in a Simulation. if the mass and inertia are correctly modelled. There are People and other things like animals even in FSX so I have no doubt that what you were musing about @13 minutes could be done. ref @23 min In my 20's I travelled extensively through England Europe , Nth and Sth America etc Lands End to JoG is a doddle in comparison to distances we travel in Australia or in the US even having driven trucks for Eddie before he was "Eddie" and companies in the US it was great I got paid to tour the country, and I'd take on big trips because many driver's wouldn't. In answer to your question @ 25 min yes at Vancouver to Halifax and then turned round and headed for LA and then back up through the Rockies and then the coast to Seattle and again turned around and pointed south east finishing in Miami over a 6 month period though, I know young and dumb and full of adventure and would do it again in a heartbeat even though I'm 55 next year . This trip was all rural back roads meeting and talking to people along the way doing a dats work or two here and there t pay for fuel etc THAT is how you travel and expand you mind and actually learn what you could NEVER do from a text book. @ 26:15 it's "Peterbilt" as in the boys name and your likely thinking of the low budget road warrior film from 1971 with Dennis Weaver where a travelling businessman has a run in with an unseen driver of a big rig called "Duel". The Prime mover was a 1960 Peterbilt 281 with a grundgy Fuel tanker Trailer and the car was a Plymouth Valiant , We had the Australian built version at the time as our family car . @ 32 min You can't see what it actually is in the Video but a CAT D9T is around $500000 to $800000 Aud depending on the Options and weighs in at around 47 Metric Tonne's so SLOW Down in the Snow and ice as your probably grossing 75 Tonne you realise. Now as for insurance that is not normally up to the Truck operator but the freight consignor, BUT many companies carry multi-million dollar policies for public liability and Load insurance @33 IF you have ever driven a Prime mover bobtail and especially in Ice and snow you would know why the AI is slow, you have very limited steering response speed and literally very low grip on the rear and MUST drive accordingly, especially in the Wet or Snow because the wheels WILL darn near lock instantly with no trailer weight. As for parking you and I need to get on Teamspeak etc and I could give you a few pointer's in parking etc :p

[@benfriend7469]

Scania also make higher horsepower engines because I have a 730hp scania in my r730 scania so scania do make the higher horsepowere engines

[@Tobias611]

MrRampageCage like 10 minutes or so for sure

[@jimmyers3123]

I love watching your videos. If it's too long or too short for someone, that's there problem. Make them as long or as short as you think they should be. No matter how long or short they are they're always good. Your videos have encouraged me to get euro truck simulator 2.

[@nickwest3157]

over here in america the most common are the Peterbilt, the Mack, the Kenworth, and the Western Star

[@bennynash6655]

I enjoyed this video but two things. as an American trucker for 20 years when you pull in to park a trailer, if you can turn in so that you look out the driver's side to see the parking area and second I am glad to see that the game designer hasn't been accurate the slickness of snow and the lack of ice on bridges and ramps. I cringed to see you going 60 to 70 miles per hour on snow in spite of the fact it's only a game. it was cool to see you can pull loads like that after dark in Europe also. in the us we would have to park dusk to dawn each day. keep them coming and great trip.

[@joned1000]

the snow is a mod and is not default to the game. so the game devs (SCS) had nothing to do with the snow.

[@Nicklyft]

Squirrel come to New York you can stay at my house to sleep off the jet lag, then the next day we'll get on the road and drive across the country--switching off driving whilst we talk about our feelings.

[@arupian666]

hahahahahahahaha, talk about your feelings ?!?!

[@Dankish1809]

LMFAO I'm dead!!

[@digitalbarrito3555]

Gotta say, I've been on a binge of your content lately. Played a fair amount of ETS2 on a controller, and always enjoyed myself, but always felt like I needed more. More being a wheel, pedals, and shifter. So after watching a ton of your content, I bit the bullet and ordered a G29 and Shifter ( I know there are better wheels on the market, but currently, without doing some extreme bargain hunting, the G29+Shifter is the cheapest full setup I could find.) I received my shifter today, feels good with no frame of reference, and I'm super excited to get my wheel next week and start trucking again. Cheers mate, keep doing you.

[@toilitman]

I don't mind how long the videos are, I love them all weather it is 5 min or 5 hours! :D Keep it up and could u possibly make more Euro Truck Simulator 2 videoes! :D Anyways Keep it up!

[@ducktruck3261]

He is the best to listen to while playing ets 2 :-D

[@toilitman]

Yes, Agreed! Duck Truck! ;)

[@andyward9117]

At about 18 mins 30 secs into video, 'Snow in a tunnel' really?

[@joned1000]

18:30

[@justinmcmahan2353]

I enjoy anything above 30 minute even over a hour I love the longer truck videos!

[@ThaMythbuster]

Any lenght :)

[@jeremyjames8678]

I rode a Honda GW from Whidbey Island Washington State to Orlando Florida, about 3500 miles. I did it in 5 days, averaged about 700 miles a day. Freeway all the way though, and warm sunny weather. The only bad weather was a wicked side wind in Texas. Got one speeding ticket, despite my radar detector. I'm originally from the UK also. Thanks for the vids.

[@masonmethot3186]

I don't care what length it is, as long as it's over 30 minutes:) Then I'll be interested, under 30 minutes, to short to bother:/

[@FateBoost]

Same

[@Augustbride2013]

Same here

[@burritocat]

Same here too

[@patrickmusson4571]

I just don't like it when he cuts stuff out, whatever the length is. I will sit down for 2 hours and watch multiple Squirrel videos without a break.

[@Didntask14]

rec ban REPORT

[@henrye8127]

This video is awesome. This is the first video I've seen where it's winter weather. I'm getting euro truck soon, and I hope to see you out there on the multi-player roads. Happy trucking

[@richardharris8229]

Upload it how you drove it. Be it 25mins or 1hr 25mins. Upload it how you drove it :)

[@stonwall9065]

I like those longer videos. I enjoy just having them on.

[@Themadbusdriver90]

i once watched a 1hr 40 min vid before on train sim lol trooper

[@bichomaldito]

1 hr is great. I watch your vids while working the night shift. They're fun and relaxing. Greetings from Chile, South America.

[@dsilveira6492]

Squirrel, Couple things. Boot = Trunk Bonnet = Hood and in the US a fender is the portion that covers the wheels. Also, i have gone *nearly* across the continental US a couple of times. I've driven from San Diego, CA to Michigan on several occasions, shortest time was 31 hours straight thru, tons of fun and worth the adventure!!

[@charliepeters8039]

Volvo are generally sold with more power than the other brands. That's one of their party pieces. And yes I'm from North America and the bonnet its equivalent to the hood and fenders are the piece of sheet metal Above the wheels. Love the videos!

[@Dingerific]

40 min to an hour is fine I watch at work in downtime on an ambulance so I can pause and continue. great job on the vids

[@TheVoyager252]

Always watch your videos, all the way through, doesn't matter how long, if you where to do a feature length video of 2 hours, i would watch it, your videos are extremely entertaining and informative, it has being yourself that has introduced me to Euro Truck. Thank you Paul.

[@Zaltic]

I love rewatching all these. I miss this style of video

[@wadeussery1641]

I love the digital screen on the dash that shows large pictures of the information you need.........Scania is the BEST!!!!

[@WorthJwr]

Ive never played Euro Truck, and really dont intend to. But I admit I do like watching your videos for some reason. I could happily sit here and watch a 1+ hour video :)

[@Gam3Broz]

Usually I listen to these while I play Euro Truck, so I like the longer videos.

[@mapesdhs597]

18:35 - You bet people would watch hour+ videos. :D I've recently watched your entire ATS diary series, all the ETS2 diary series, various misc ETS2 vids, now I'm going through the rest of the ETS2 playlist. Every time a vid ends I'm a bit sad it couldn't go on longer. Like so many of these things, the channel owner often doesn't realise just how popular their content may be, or quite why. It's the fact that you talk about so many different things, but also about the game, issues about gaming in general and where it's going, funny stories, and you have a good voice for it too, like a trucker version of Bernard Cribbins. :)

[@Girruuth]

Fenders are front and rear side panels. Bumpers are front and rear impact panels, the bits that aren't the hood, trunk or fender. bumpers *used* to be chromed heavy steel fixtures that would absorb the impact if you "bumped" into anything. Now they are molded high impact plastic with metal behind to absorb mild impacts.

[@patrickmusson4571]

It doesn't matter what the length is, all I care about is that you don't cut anything out. I want to see EVERYTHING. I feel a bit cheated when you cut stuff out. I love these videos and I want to see it all.

[@XFoolXProofX]

Lesson 1. You can never please everyone at once. Keep doing what you are doing, You are putting out awesome videos. Because of you I purchased this game which I never would have and it has been a blast to play. How awesome would it be if there was a MMO element to it....besides all the people that would do anything except wreck others lol. Thanks for all the good videos man.

[@italonascimento1391]

I think you should keep the same lenght it doesn't matter what lenght your videos are it will allways be the best videos ever.

[@davidconner273]

i don't have any problems watching your longer videos cause your not boring an you keep it entertaining

[@XFoolXProofX]

Haha and I love the way you say "Petabuilt" lol Peterbuilt. ~Peeeteeer built ;)

[@SudhindraSrikanth2001]

The truck at the rest stop that you said an unbranded one, it is a Majestic. Look at the menu and see in that truck dealer column. Anyway great journey. Truly enjoyed it. I enjoy rest of your videos too. Hats off and kudos to you! :-)

[@sillyvalliexo]

When you started sliding in the beginning of the video, I slammed my ''A'' key down to steer the other way xD

[@AlanLoovees]

hey squirrel, your videos r really cool... I just wanted to tell you that at junctions, the AI traffic actually gives u way or stop for u if u use a turn signal.... while overtaking using oncoming track, if u see any AI coming from far, you just need to flash your high beam lights and they will slow down and then in some cases to come to a complete stop that will allow you more time to get back to your lane... once again great videos!!! subbed!!!

[@dexgames8435]

You gay or sum

[@aaronpage5374]

I drove coast to coast in North America in 2012. Life Changing experience man.

[@Thej611]

Epic. The truck matches the bulldozer. Love the scania.

[@Minalover100]

26:52 The Movie was Called "Dual" with Dennis Weaver...Great Stuff!!

[@1960imp]

I thin it was "Duel"... :-)

[@Minalover100]

I think you are right!!

[@MrDeanooo]

I prefer to watch your vids without any editing, no matter how long they are. Excellent work as always, look forward to the next :)

[@TheeMurkShow]

Well done Squirrel that truck used in the movie was a 1955 Peterbilt 281 Tanker truck.

[@TexMedGaming]

Long videos rock! US road trip: I-10 if u go in winter, I-80 if in summer. I-10 goes from florida to california. I-80 (I think) goes from new england to oregon or washington. If u didnt mind grinding out the miles, u could do both, one way there and one back. Definite difference in the two halves of this great country.

[@TheeMurkShow]

Squirrel i will watch any of your upcoming videos no matter how long they are! I'm going to purchase this game because of you. I"ve seen them all and have watched your streams now in 720p+ and i need more! So entertaining and your commentary is awesome and hilarious. Keep up the amazing work brother and i will be awaiting your next stream!

[@AhsieTheApache]

I love these long ETS2 videos, keep em comin

[@Primalkopfjager]

I enjoy the long videos because they show full venture of the journy and i find it entertaining listening to you say things like nobbit as an american your british accent makes me laugh

[@TheUKNutter]

13:57 it goes dark early because it's Winter! The sun is lowered down because of this and both it and the moon show... What great attention to detail.

[@specializedforever]

1 hour videos would be good. When I watch these I watch as long as it is.. If its 1 hour I watch an hour if its 10 min I'll watch it. These are good videos and you made me want to buy the game. So I'm gonna buy it soon. Keep posting them videos up

[@Tiberion1701]

Another cool Video, Thanks! I think you would enjoy driving across North America, maybe in the spring or fall when its not terribly hot or cold. Perhaps rent a convertible and buy some sunscreen. Route 66 is an excellent choice, its definitely intended as a scenic road from Chicago to Los Angeles across the great plains and Rocky Mountains, even the desert in Arizona. From LA you could go north through Yellowstone and into Canada and then back east; some Canucks could make recommendations there

[@BigMack2020]

Bonnet = Hood, Boot = Trunk, and the American Fender is a Wheel arch

[@quintenbronsveld6501]

131 couldnt handle the lenght of the video. i really like them so 1 hour is cool. and just full upload.

[@TheBearsfan15434]

I didn't quite go coast to coast but it was the longest trip I've ever taken... I went from Illinois to Idaho, I was with my aunt so I rested for about 12 hours while she drove then we switched off and I drove for 12 hours and it was absolutely beautiful I can't wait to do it again in about a year lol.

[@bruncev]

I watch pretty much everything you post, regardless of length, sometimes sure its a bit long but ill make time, sometimes its to short but that just means i can watch them faster and move on to another video :) Keep it up Squirrel!

[@rednecman19]

i know that this video is old, but i thought id share that i drove from california and went to illinois, which is about a 2 week trip at one state a day. about anyways, we stayed in illinois and missouri for multiple days, but it should take you a few weeks to go across. but route 66 is really fun. you can see the petrified forest, and the grand canyon. then you take the coast up and go through the north and you can see yellowstone national park. America is absolutely beautiful.

[@DodgeMan360]

We call the "Bonnet" a "hood" and the fender is the body panel that accommodates the wheel wells. The "Boot" is a "Trunk" in North America as well.

[@CAMERAJAMMER]

That truck you didn't know was a Majestic

[@IncredibleNodule]

If i'm honest with you squirrel any video i watch any video i like any time i like although a 10 hour straight Euro truck simulator special would be AMAZING :D and i'm sure others will agree :)

[@jamesmerriman119]

U should go for a long journey from somewhere in east Europe to somewhere in Scoltand I would definatly watch that, love the series keep up the great work ;)

[@Granpapasan]

5:35, i would love to have seen that in 3rd person viewing mode! Big Truck "Drifting!"

I love longer simulator games (Euro truck, War Thunder, etc.)

[@xenosgamezz5299]

hi Squirrel love the ets2 vids its the best off all. I prefer the longer length videos because it gives me more fun to watch even if it ends up to be 5h :)

[@DanielDavis1973]

I moved from Orlando to Seattle (Florida to northwest corner so opposite corners) and it is roughly 3500 miles. The trip from Boston to LA is similar length (a little shorter probably) but those corner to corner trips are probably the longest.

[@TheOneAndOnlyDOC]

If you do come to the states you need to start in Wilmington NC and take I-40 all the way Bakersfield CA. Me and some friends did it in about 4 days. And the movie you're thinking about is called Duel.

[@60dansen]

do it longer... half an hour is not enough.... your awesome bro!!

[@TheReal1InTheBack]

I don't care what you do, i'll watch, just do whatever you feel like

I can't believe that the last episode' that you went crazy over the bulldozer!!!

[@alexandermeredith7690]

Hehe, yeah. I like the old L&N up until it's demise. I also, just like you model some modern stuff, but it is railroads like the Northwestern Pacific, and shortlines like that. They run through my area. :) Sorry you had to hear that, but when conglomeration got the best of the Presidents of the Family Lines System, they put my grandfather out of work.

i look at any length though as im retired. your doing a great work

[@meiqeldriyanmcneal881]

This video is cool and u were slinding in the road

[@MartinMarinoff]

Squirrel,if you have played long enough you should know - when you reach level of 25 you can put 730 bhp in Scania. To date my in-game millage is over 430 000 km. Also the longest route I meneged to put together is about 6800 km in one delivery. But that takes a lot of driving around and NOT following your route advisor. You should keep an eye on the deadlines, though.

[@ryland155]

volvo's are quite nice, and they make really nice engines

[@moto8dog]

Dennis Weaver starred in Duell by Spielberg, great flick!!!

This is cool - CATS are made in my town of Peterlee in County Durham :)

sure the vids are fine they are alright as long as they are now:) and no i do not want you to cut out because i like the whole journey in the video!

[@ItsTheJoeKer]

I'd quite happily watch an hour :-)

[@ShishigamiLP]

I like the longer videos Squirrel. Your commentary makes them interresting and fun to watch. and it would be veeery nice if you could stream ETS2 for a few hours a week :) And i think you know the Mighty Jingles from WoT and War thunder, his videos arent short too :D

[@GoltdoofTV]

I wouls watch the whole journey even if it was multiple hours long I like listening to you your a wise man :P

[@kriksis98]

it actually shows -3celsius on dash with this mod, pretty proper

[@MrPomomies]

What I have noticed on volvo vs scania engines (in real life) is huge torque difference.Where scania just keeps pullingvolvo struggles, and goes coule gear down, it's not the power, it's the torque. For example. Assuming you can keep your foot down. Power makes how fast you will hit the fence. (the faster you can pull the trailer) Torque, is how far you will take that fence with you (the heavier the trailer may be when you get on the hill)

Love this series Mr. Squirrels Nuts!
