Would be amazing to tell us your story When, where and how you started Thanks

100% agree.

Watch his Truck N’ Hustle interview! He basically talks about how he got started in construction and the rest of his businesses.

I have came here from yannie I cant believe im enjoying truck reviews 😂 good content bro

[@K7XNG]

You should do a fleet review or a tour of your yard

[@imraanmahomed13]

I really like how you buy the best quality trucks with all thr optional extras because you know they useful happy for you and your staff

[@leonk.1031]

You should try out MAN they make very good trucks

[@danielkimberley4115]

We’ve had 2 Arocs. Both 64 plates and we sold them both last year due to the amount of problems we had with them. We ran them in and out of local quarries and it just shook them to bits. Would certainly not recommend them. Volvo and Scania would be the better option for fleet efficiency

[@botchok5]

Glad I found your channel. It's very informative and the amount of logistics involved is nuts.

[@sjones8738]

This guy is very knowledgeable on everything concerning his businesses, material, equipment, local, state and federal laws in the UK. He has a great working relationship with his employees and he knows how to have fun.

[@geraldmosesr9630]

I'm from a creative industry. Bought here by doggy youtube algorithms. Though this guy knows how to tell a good captivating story. Now I want to know more about this industry.

[@pushnpow]

I’ve been loading one of these trucks on a job in Sweden and noticed it had no mirrors and big monitors in the cab. Thought I’d have a look into it and it lead me to your review. Excellent stuff! It’s like Top Gear for construction trucks and machinery.

[@tafm350]

Not in construction but enjoying this channel! Great insights into a totally different world

[@sharon.d7291]

I drive an Arocs auto tipper and always use the cruise control and 3 stage retarder brake it just does the work for you. It stops the over speed good for when you’re loaded saves the breaks too! Watching this as test driving the mirrorless this week. Hope Mercedes have improved the cup holder!

[@DSM2009]

You tha man Dan, great review. You need your own show 👍🏾👏🏾

[@hornetboy3694]

Awesome video, thank you Daniel & your team

[@TrucksScaleModels]

The shield around the engine is possible in different versions, most construction trucks really has it. As for rear springs, the Arocs previously had a 3 leaf springs package with the same load capacity as this one (it was changed in august/2017). This is perfectly fine for such truck, they can easily cope with 20% more load than legal weight. If You want larger springs/bogie on such truck, it require the hub reduction differentials and a overdrive gearbox. Believe me You want subframe or hub reduction axles way before stronger springs

[@UnveilingPerspectivesNewsTV]

Love the trucks tutorials. Thank you for amazing wonderful content

[@zymkriger]

Of all the dumptrucks I have (3 are 2020 models) the highest level of tech i can get is cruise control and a backup camera. I really wish the US market would get with it!

[@mouadboudjmili8912]

Perfect review .. This was completely helpful, Waiting for an other one soon, Keep it up 🇩🇿👌

[@mattsmedley7703]

Daniel can you start a top gear for trucks?! Really informative videos keep them coming!!

[@MiMi-dc9qs]

I never thought I'd be this excited about things concerning the construction industry.. BUT I AM. But I still don't understand how the construction industry works. Can you guys please put out content relating to this? While it's not something that I could personally get involved in, sounds like something that I'd like to invest in.

[@ladiesperfume]

Yo bruv I really enjoy your videos! I have absolutely no interest in construction but this shit is entertaining af. I'm going to watch all of your videos, like, and leave this comment on all of them. Keep going bro!

[@andrzejkur4990]

Driving a one of mirrorless Merc in last few months. Brilliant staff, when its raining...Absolute useless in tiny roads, when you need to pass parked cars... good on motorways, on bright day you never know when lorry behind you flash lights to let you back to lane...Nice display, good tom tom sat nav...

I'd never have thought I would be watching a review of a truck 🚚 🤦‍♂️

[@icewizzard666]

Great vid, love watching your channel - even though I'm still playing catch up (Sorry) but I've got to pick up on one thing. You made a point about the red seatbelt, awesome showing us you wearing it, but, red is an optional extra?? To me it should be standard to show and prove to others you and other drivers have their seatbelt on. Obviously this isn't your fault but you saying about it made me think. Especially if it's for safety.

[@lunchbox5888]

was the railway there when you started or did you get it put in?

[@dmb8623]

got it put in,it was not there before

[@YepYepYepYepYep]

Sick video!👍🏽

[@xxOzzie63xx]

Nice looking truck, but having driven the Actros for few years, have felt it's so uncomfortable on longer drives, compared to my 19 plate MAN, which for me now is so damn comfortable. But I do like the look of the new MB trucks, best looking trucks on the road.

[@chrissyb85]

Pretty cool, though would look better in black!

[@eshandeepak_0159]

can you do a review on one of the volvo

[@ralphciora7744]

Nice truck!

[@chris77777777ify]

Good review. Drove one of these for four months & have driven an 2006 Scania tipper off-road, the Scania was better in terms of off-road performance in comfort. This Merc had constant faults, telling my bulbs where broken when lights were off & the fault would go once on for example I had to manually do intermittent wipers in light rain or fog as the automatic wipers would not detect it. I enjoyed driving it, but those ‘mirrors’ are simply wrong & I drive in Devon, with the most hedges in the road of any county. Exactly how I drive, it’s a aquaRetarder that uses coolant from engine put through the transmission & slowed in a torque converter. Good modern truck, great seating position close to the windscreen & felt safe in it. Seeing as when loaded they weigh 32 tonnes, car drivers don’t play with heavy trucks.....wrote a car off in a merge in turn, no damage to the truck & insurance company was in my favour resulting in the car driver having a very very rough day & I didn’t even even use dash cam footage!

That was awesome I would like to get a truck like that😄

[@stevekunoor]

Best review I've ever seen of a truck , I found it very informative.👍

[@phalanx3803]

IMO if one of the cameras gets knocked off it should go in to a limp mode so it can still be moved if its in the way of something

Lorry drivers don’t realise how comfy you’ve got it, try driving a 20 year old bus for 5 and a half hours in 36° heat.

[@jameswilson8820]

[@angrysocialjusticewarrior]

Most annoying thing about being a bus driver is the idiot human cargo you have to haul. At least in trucking, the cargo does not talk back.

[@DkDk-zj7lx]

Very good review but the fact that it won't start with the broken mirror is a big problem. They will get broken with low branch's. I had a 2001 modes and the breaks were a problem with muck on the sensors.

[@j.m.5995]

How about a review of the Scania S770

[@jamesmullen262]

Interesting they have changed the suspension setup! IMO On the older gen Arocs Mercedes should give it's customers free weekly sessions at a chiropractor because you're spine will never be the same again, good lorry all the same though.

[@chris77777777ify]

Suspension is only fitted on the rear axles, That’s why trucks handle so bad, wish car drivers knew this fact. Only the FH16 750 by Volvo offers front independent suspension & electronic instant steering.

[@عابرسبيل-و5ي1س]

Review a unimog u5023 Thanks for sharing.

[@Professional_Youtube_Commenter]

are you bouncing arround all over the place or are you still and the truck is bouncing? I heard about the bose seat system. Would have been nice to have a camera mounted on the seat so we can see drivers POV from there and how the seat stays in relation to the road.

[@brandoncummins1816]

Can you review a Volvo fmx?

[@MrDirtyTrucker]

Have they change the MOT so they can use the camera system as wind mirrors??

[@jimlondon1]

My boss traded in 6 Mercedes 8 wheeled grab wagons In for 6 brand new scanias in January. Not one of the mercs gave any trouble at all in the 5 years he had them . Only reason he got the scanias was the deal he was given. I rate scanias, they're good tippers bur the Mercedes are underrated. Allow those camera wing mirrors though. Crap idea.

Would have to say a landfill is the perfect place for any merc. That's if you can get it there without it breaking down. Ask any mechanic what they think of them always get the same answer sh.. e. Good review though like the channel well worth a subscribe mate.

Do you even test drive the new trucks you buy. Also why not truck and dogs there for more product can be delivered at the same time? Look at us here in Australia large truck and dogs.

Great video but I thought your fleet was all Scania

[@MattyFPVx]

Didn't know it wouldn't start if mirror is missing. Great tech, on road. What if you've parked in a yard, another driver has knocked it off, and you need to move off a bay, pulling forward (with a banksman) and parking up would be ideal, but I guess you cannot do that!

[@thisisashville]

Yes, you can’t move the truck at all. Mercedes say it’s for our own safety

[@MattyFPVx]

@@thisisashville yeah I get the safety aspect, and as you said, I wouldn't wanna drive without a mirror. But surely there are times, like in a yard, with a bankmans, that it can be moved safely without a mirror! Anyway, great videos! Keep em up!

Smaller then traditional mirrors so if anything less likely to be hit. It’s the future and new cars already having them

[@davebadger100]

These new cameras are a perfect example of some clown in a design office fixing something that aint broke. Mirrors work and have worked for decades. These cameras/mirrors might be fine straight out of the factory but will they still work after 4 years and 200k KM, especially in a construction enviroment. And won't it be great when your camera gets twatted off by a bus and you have to spend 5 hours waiting for breakdown to come out to you. Of course there are going to be plenty of firms out there with managers who won't want to fork out £600 for a new camera, so a mirror will be fitted instead. Fast forward 5 years time and there hundreds of Mercs driving about with a camera on one side and a mirror on the other. Another genius idea from truck manufacturers that's not needed.

[@D5DRIFT]

How about this scenario,........ You're sitting in traffic, on a busy, main road. Minding your own business. Then a large vehicle - bus, lorry, etc, hits your mirror cam and destroys it. Does this then render the vehicle undriveable until fixed? I.e blocking a main road through no fault of your own

[@user-gn1hk5fx8u]

I’m just wondering would you have to take the lorry to Mercedes to change the tyre
