Is the Unimog the perfect snow day truck?
When my cousin had a snow day, I called up @TeamChampagneNinjas to borrow the monster Unimog for a killer surprise. Huge thanks to them and @Ai_design for making this day possible.

He called me and took me on a ride on highway it was my first time being in a truck so excited i loved every bit of it. He passed away 2 years ago due of liver cancer i miss him he was my best friend.

@mraidymaddful 2 года назад

In 1998 I passed my bus and coach PSV licence test. The bus company I worked for at the time had these huge Scania coaches that were used as ordinary buses. The first journey was so intimidating as the bus was as big as a house. It was a semi automatic which meant it had a button instead of a clutch. You could be in say, second gear. Then pre-select third gear, press the floor button and the gear would engage. Took a bit of getting used to but was quite easy after only a short while. The air brakes are a whole different ball game to regular ones. Featherlight pressure is required till you get used to it. I didn't know you could handbrake skid a bus/coach till I tried it one night in the bus park back at the depot. Luckily, no one saw me do it, lol.....

@ohauss 2 года назад

Even train track maintenance. There are two in one versions which can hop onto train or subway tracks and pull rail cars around.

@theonly5001 2 года назад

The Unimog actually is a quite nimble and fast Vehicle if you want it to be that way. It still got a decent power to weight ratio, can climb crazy stuff and is versatile like no other. There is a reason why in Germany the "Mog" is so widley used in public service. Be it either at a communal, military or emergency services level. Oh and that vehicle loves to eat offroad for breakfast. Ther is almost no series vehicle which is more offroad capable and versatile than the mog.
