Oh you blokes have got it easy, back in my day it was dirt from Pt Augusta to Kulgera and then onto the old WW2 (nearly) single track road from Alice Springs to Darwin - and that cambered heavily to both sides. 😆 Kingoonya was superseded by Marla Bore which back then was nothing but a few demountables. When it rained heavy the rush was to make the Pimba jump-up and clear the tablelands before they became a quagmire. If you happened to get stuck, most trucks carried a 'stiff bar' (metal bar with eyelets each end to connect to ring feeder) which would be used to connect to other trucks (trains) and then a, push me, pull you, system was utilised to get across and out of the bog. Memories huh? 😆 God bless you and stay safe out there 🇦🇺👍

Hi Mick, great video’s. I have been fascinated by the trucking world of late - particularly in light of these zero emission trucks that seem to be on the horizon, but I have a lot of questions. Can I please ask a bunch of these questions about the economics of it all today with diesel? Like I believe your GCM limit is 115.5t - but what is it typically for your trips? How often do you have to refuel and how much do you refuel (I.e. does your load play a factor in how much fuel you put in ?). Cheers Rob from Perth.
@justcruisinwithmicksally8373 жыл бұрын
Rob, the total GCM will determine the amount of fuel we use. Our total GCM can be as high as 125.5t although most of our loads for our run would come in around 80-90t. We refuel at Alice Springs, Darwin, Alice Springs and then Adelaide when we arrive back there. Each fuel fill is around 1,100 -1,200 litres per fill. Hope this is of some help to you.

Your pretrip inspection must be long. When I was trucking here in the states I did an average 20 min inspection rarely had issues usually the truck stop would be able to fix a tire or replace a bulb if need be. Say you find a tire blows or something how long does it take for someone to find you and fix it? I’m assuming y’all don’t have truck stops every 40 min from each other.
@justcruisinwithmicksally8372 жыл бұрын
Our trucks go into our own workshop after every trip so our pretrip checks are not that involved, basically lights and tyre amongst some other minor items. We change all of our own flat tyres as like you say, it would take too long for someone to find us. Once we leave our yards we are basically on our own unles it is a real major breakdown.

Do you have extra air tanks to handle all those extra axles?
@justcruisinwithmicksally8373 жыл бұрын

Guess you'll figure it out when the truth will out. Here in UK, the government have been outed for using psychological tactics! They employed a nudge unit. People are having huge problems with their health. Stay safe, stay sane everyone.

Thanks for that Mick, it really is beautiful country. Just wondering if you have a preferred truck, KW or the Mack, and what makes one better than the other in your opinion
@justcruisinwithmicksally8373 жыл бұрын
Because we are a 2-Up Team, I would prefer the Mack over the Kenworth only because it is much more quieter inside the cab. The Kenworth has more room in the bunk plus a few more creature comforts than what the Mack has. At the end of the day one is as good as the other.

Does any particular roadhouse on the way stand out for great coffee and tucker ?
@justcruisinwithmicksally8373 жыл бұрын
I can not give a correct answer for you on that question as we do not use the roadhouses, we have our own meals onboard with us, sorry. The BP Truckstop in Darwin makes an excellent coffee though.
