Күн бұрын

The Brabus G700 AMG 6X6 (2$million) and this Homemade MegaRaptor 6x6 (~$400,000 CAD build, slightly less USD), are two of the most absurd examples of automotive excess we could find. What better way to stroll through sleepy small town Ontario during gas hikes, than in two 6x6 custom mega trucks? Thomas is championing opulent wealth, luxury and lavishness with the Brabus. And the F350 converted MegaRaptor James brought along has military grade wheels that weigh as much as a Tesla Model Y. Which of these two 6x6 behemoths is more unusable in daily life? Which is faster in a drag race? We hope you enjoy the episode! Thanks for watching! SUBSCRIBE!
Massive thank you to the legendary owner @Canadian_Car_Nut, who made all of this possible!

The power cord dangling underneath brings back memories. When I moved to BC from Alberta, I took my ‘95 Mustang into the shop for a tune up. When I got it back, the service manager says “Umm. Do you know you’ve got an extension cord wrapped up in your engine? We tried to pull it out, but it’s in there good!” 🤷‍♂️ None of them had ever heard of a block heater. Explaining what it’s for was like explaining dark magic to a Muggle.

Yes, with the “standard” 6x6 wheels, but these wheels are aftermarket from Brabus and it seems that Brabus has not routed a air pressure line through the wheel hub to the tire bed. At 19:06 you can see that there is a normal “valve” sticking out of the tire. So James was right that the switches don’t actually work at the moment

The differential lock switches from left to right are: 1. front differential. This locks only the front axle differential. 2. Interaxle differential(s). This one locks the transfer case differential (splits power between the front and rear axles) and might also lock the rear interaxle diff (splits power between the middle and rear axles). 3. Rear axles. This one locks both rear axle differentials, and may also lock the rear interaxle differential if that isn't already controlled by the middle switch. Imagine that the truck is held completely off the ground, but with some friction on all 6 tires, so that when you hit the gas, the wheels spin. Having the vehicle in 6x6 with all the lockers unlocked means that only one wheel out of six will spin, specifically whichever one has the least traction (actually, depending on how the transfer case is set up, you might get one front and one rear, but anyway) Locking the center interaxle diff means one of the four rear wheels and one front wheel will spin (again, whichever ones have the least resistance). Lock the rear interaxle differential and one wheel on each of the three axles will spin, and then lock the three axle differentials to get all six wheels turning at once.

I remember driving a dually f-350 and f-550 and I was always told if the mirrors fit the rear will need to be straight when you go through. If the mirrors fit the ass end will if it’s inline with the fence posts. With the wider tires you should extend the mirrors all the way out to make sure the read fits properly.

The locking diffs in the 6x6 work as follows, there are 5 diffs, one for the transfer case, one for the front axle, one for the mid axle, one for the rear axle, and between the mid and rear axles. Button 1 is for the transfer case, like the normal G-wagon, splitting the power 50% to the front and 50% to the rear except the rear in the 6x6 has 2 axles, meaning that the mid and rear axles share 50% of the power. Button 2 locks the mid axle, rear axle and the diff between them. Button 3 locks the front diff like the normal G-wagon.

5 diff locks is easy: -The left button's drawing shows you it controls the front diff lock, and it has number 3 on it because that's the last one you should lock up after all else fails -Middle button's graphic shows you it's the centre lock, it has number 1 on it because that's the first one you should engage when the going gets rough -Right button shows you the rear locks, all 3 of them (one for each rear axle and one for the diff between the two rear axles), and it has number 2 on the button because that's the second diff lock you should engage if only the centre lock is not enough to keep you going

You guys spent almost the whole video trashing both cars with no real test other than ridicule. I clicked on the video baited to see these monsters in some real action yet all I saw was a continual roast off against both cars and their owners. These vehicles were made to be unique and monstrous, it may not be to everyone's liking but I don't think you guys gave their sheer engineering and capability abilities any credit. Since this video was recorded in Ontario, I'm assuming you guys are Canadian and that brings me extreme surprise as I usually encounter Canadians that mostly only spread kindness and positive vibes.

The original TRex was a 6x6 during the 90's. Having two axles connected together isn't an easy thing to do. They disconnected the rear axle. That truck hauled stuff around Chelsea for years after that truck was built. Everyone loved it, no one liked driving it.

I absolutely loved the “real world challenge” aspect of this video, felt super real, both in the fact that it was all built of real circumstances and events, and because of the more raw and agile camera angles that made the stakes feel higher and the experience more genuine and raw. Loved it so much! Y’all are the best, next top gear in my book.

6 Wheels is a commendable gimmick when it comes to these two vehicles the most impressing aspect is their absurd price. And seeing as I am a man of culture, when it comes to the most sophisticated vehicle at achieving Transcendent Vulgarity from overwhelming excess and avant-garde Gimmickry there is only 1, the Hummer EV and it's 'Crab Walk' ability. People are so invested in it that they are willing to die on a hill to defend or destroy it! From Engineers to Frat Boy, it is Loved & Hated in equal measure.
