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

[@mickmeadows]

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

[@erwin770]

Thanks for keeping the original sound.

[@ashishkumar6574]

Very duggy

[@Xxx-ji1en]

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

[@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.

[@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.

[@grofslov]

Tatra the best trucks....

[@BobSmith1980.]

I would love to drive one of these

[@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

[@joshquiroz]

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

[@indronilrc]

Excellent videography, thank you for original sound rendition.

[@camojoe83]

That green TATRA is awesome.

[@mikealexis]

Always look your videos

[@michaelhite1433]

Rock crawling with big boy trucks.

[@phun4379]

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

[@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.

[@davidbranum6628]

Amazing 🤩

[@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

[@augustojanisckijunior2538]

Wow! Congratulations....greetings from Brazil. 🇧🇷

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

[@SupFromCz]

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

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?......

[@ravibhaliya4812]

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

[@lutsifer5847]

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

[@Brandy911]

Awesome pictures !! - Thanks for sharing :-)

[@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.

[@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.

[@watchinganygame4748]

Wow 😮

[@josemarino4270]

Are these trials or truck torture!!

[@MauricioGaribay]

chingon...😎👌

[@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 😈

[@قناةيوتيوبالعالم]

سبحان الله والحمد لله ولا اله الا الله وأكبر أحب كلام إلى الله ردده أخي ولو مره واحده بس

[@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.

[@ВячеславЕрошкин-г9ы]

mercedes i good, but Tatra is better muhehehe

[@sulemanshah94]

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

[@nedern]

They should use the winch some more!

[@nguoigialaitv6609]

4 = 8*8. Bravo.

[@alexandersenna3532]

[@MagnetOnlyMotors]

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

[@tomast9034]

[@ralphlouismendoza1977]

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

[@ezkieler850]

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?

[@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.

[@swagmasteryolo6259]

Looks like what the krs bandit is based off of in snowrunner

[@sloukamichal]

[@всс-ш4т]

[@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.

[@Make-Asylums-Great-Again]

I really like the exocage on the cab.

[@miroslavizebegovich8072]

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

[@onlyforgooglenoname4044]

You can buy these trucks in every supermarket 😉

[@gustavlicht9620]

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

[@haraldpettersen3649]

Unreal to look at, like a catepillar that twist in pain, but is slides forward 🧐

[@mustafaalbayrak3342]

Perfect

[@НатальяПерепелка-с3ы]

[@sigmundfrido2833]

[@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

[@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?

[@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!

[@jhairchambilla6547]

Pobres vehiculos .. seran todo terreno ...pero no es para que lo maltraten tanto ni abusen de el

[@maxxjettfilms6322]

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

[@q80aziz]

With all that smoke and soot ! Who cares about the environment 🤔

[@perryreasch1499]

tough trucks

[@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.

[@gwhiten2158]

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

[@MFKR696]

I wish I could have tires like the ones on that Mercedes on my farm run-about/service truck.

What is this vehicle doing and carrying. Its strong but i dnt get it.

[@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. :-(
