I manged a day off work to head up Mt Messenger to film roadside footage of trucks heading up and over Mt Messenger, Taranaki Region, New Zealand. Copyright Will Bishop.
Definitely one of my favourite stretch of highway for photography, especially the 4x8 low loader unit, especially well driven and equipped, I would even say our driver's are the best especially line up with the best fleet's of truck makes in the world, and our goat tracks for highway, 😅😅😅.
Nice video, And how beautiful to see different models, both American and European. Bro, you can take one of your videos and upload it, leaving the credits on it. Greetings from Colombia ✌🏽😎
Been in Ozzie 14 years now driving milk tankers in the south west Vic around Otways. Really miss doing the awakino gouge Mount messenger run to Newplymouth from TeAwamutu doing bulk fertiliser with RMD.
15:08 SAR Legend - nice. I also liked the Dynes K200. K220 is out there but I'm yet to see one here in Sydney. Looking everyday driving home on the highway.
A couple trucking companies are starting to run K220's on our highways here in New Zealand, they're still a very rare sight though. We have plenty of K200's on our highways however.
Good careful truck driving. It could be a training video with no crazy overtaking. . I like the way the land face is widened and how about those "truck-trains" compared with the Scania long
10:30 This is a fh13 to be suffering in the climb like that and think here in Brazil we put even more weight in the Fh540, job that should be taken by Fh16 but our legislation don't allow by stupid reasons like weight excess at the front axle We had a case where two Scania 770S had to be assembled with small tanks and no retarder brake, due to this reason there was excess weight in the front axle.
Agreed, it was the only one we saw with that configuration. I love watching these vids from NZ as the sheer variety of the trucks they have is fascinating to someone sitting 10,000 miles away.
En realidad estos si son los verdaderos transformes y titanes de las carreteras del mundo; con estos es que deberían de hacer las películas en Hollywood;ya que son reales y no ciencia ficción.😄😄😄😍😍😍🙏🙏🙏🎼🎼🎼🎵🎵🎵🎉🎉🎉❤️❤️❤️
Yes, the Kaimais are a great place to film I have a few videos uploaded on my youtube page. I've spent many days up there taking photos and filming it's a very busy road
Great great video!!! Two thumbs up 👍🏾! What an absolute treat to see those beauties going up and down Mt. Messenger. Hats off to those drivers who have to travel up and down those mountains. Thank you for the content. I’d like to see more of those beautiful trucks.
