Does anyone remember the Pie in the Sky Cafe that used to be at the Summit.? Lovely Woodburner going in winter.Had Dutch relatives stay and we said we were just going over "the Hill" to Welly, and they nearly freaked out going over the Remutakas!

That brings back memories. My first job in 1967 was working for Hygienic Laundry who were situated at Gracefield, just under the Wainui hill; I drove a Leyland 15 van delivering rental towels and sheets to hotels etc. On Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays I would work my way up to Masterton, leaving about 0800 and not getting back until late afternoon. Some of the weather conditions I struck going over that range were absolutely atrocious and as I always drove like a dickhead (as most young blokes do) I still wonder how I made it through those times without coming to grief. 🙂

[@newzealandtrucks]

haha top man! as honest as they come, i see a few cowboys out on the range, i just tip my hat ;)

[@Pesmog]

Agree, nearly all of the worlds truck manufacturers seem to be represented in NZ. I love the curtain sided, twin-steer, cab-over Kenworth rigs, a style of truck you would struggle to find in North America. That was fascinating. 👍

[@ianleslie2326]

Australia has the same mix ofvehicles. Axle configuration in Australia is also very similar however probably more route dependent. i.e. no 3 or 4 trailer trucks near major cities.😁👍🇦🇺

Cheers mate. Needed that. Miss being in the saddle. Merry xmas

[@joshuahill6153]

New Zealand imports a lot of old trucks and buses from Australia and Japan. This is why you see a lot of old cabs and styles. Also because we take cabovers and refit them with new engines. Some of the trailers are old but the tractor unit are new. Sometimes they continue to use older trailers because of the loading limits that only restrict newer trailers etc. We also love American and Japanese trucks for their simplicity and comfort. So we never gave up using them, enough demand also allows for cabover kenworths and Peterbilts to have continued manufacturing and assembly in NZ and Aus.

Very cool, awesome!!!!💯💯👍👍

[@deltasterone]

Just impressive, Great thank you

[@paullangford8179]

In N.Z. if you develop a "tail", you have to pull over after a while and let them pass: or you get a ticket and fine. Note also that the trucks and trailers have lots of axles and dual tyres: they can pay less road tax if they are "road friendly"; the payoff is a much lower accident rate. Also, high power engines mean that even heavy rigs go pretty fast, sometimes scary fast!

[@brenics77]

The axel weights are a lot lower than European weights too. I can have 10.5 t on my drive axel with a 9t tag and an 9 t front steer

[@dallasfrost1996]

​@@brenics77 Our axel weight limits are much more strict here in New Zealand due to our poor quality roads. The more axels our trucks run on, the better it is for our roads.

Om eerlijk te zijn, zie je niet veel slapers in NZ, omdat we veel truckstops hebben en kortere afstanden moeten afleggen. To be fair, you don't see many sleepers in NZ, as we have lots of truck stops and shorter distances to travel.

Is that some kinda passing line on 03:06 interesting? So the slower trucks give the faster vehicles space to pass I guess. In my country they pass each other on a two way highroad whit 80 and 81 speed... you can gues how fast that goes and the traffic behind it.
