Overland Siberia to Kazakstan. Winter Overlanding in -45˚c. Expedition trucks. 

Cool thanks!

Fred Heymans thanks Fred. If you have not already seen it take a look at my Mongolia videos. They were shot just before this. Similar temperatures but very little snow.

@@matthewpayneadventurerfilm8902 Thanks, yes, I've discovered them. I'm going through them one by one :-) Best wishes.

CampervanCulture.com 🤣🤣 thanks Jed. As I am sure you know, it’s hard work trying to capture everything on the road, while being a driver, mechanic, and surviving. But there’s lots I didn’t film, and wishing I had.

@@matthewpayneadventurerfilm8902 I feel your pain bro ;) Jed

Mowtown NI They are both excellent ideas 😁.

I just watched it again. Made me smile. Such an adventure.

Thanks. Was like being up in the Artic circle.

John Chilton Thanks John. Feed back is appropriated. The Zil is a nice looking truck. Bet it’s pretty good off road. The dafs are pretty loud as standard. I spent about 3 days sound proofing it. About £300 of sound proofing. Made a big difference.

Hey Daniel. Great to hear from you. And thank you for your comments. You won't regret getting a truck. Got to live your dreams. Keep us informed how the build goes.

OverlandTrax thanks . More coming every week

Дамир Керей hello. Pleased you have watched 😁

Thanks

Thanks Leigh. I wished a had filmed so much more. Few gaps in the story, but I do what I can to piece it together.

😂😂😂

yasir mengal Although I created the channel in 2014 I’ve only really been working on it for 9 months.

9 months is a lot your channel deserves 5 mil instead of 5k you guys have suffered so much making these videos.

I am a big car and truck enthusiast but i am very embarrassed that i didn't recognize your trucks..

@@yasirmengal2292 Thanks. Feel free to share the videos. :) There are a lot more adventures to come, some big trips and I am currently documenting an overland truck build on my channel.

Good luck with good work.

Still lots more footage to come. I am working through it.

PJ Outdoor Services Thanks for the warning. I watched some videos on their use . The short bar chain saws can as you say bite you pretty quick. I am very cautious. Thanks . I’m using the DJI mavic Air. Not great in windy conditions but it’s a nice compact size and good battery life.

Barry Wilson 🤣. Maybe they are luckier and have less problems. Yes, I think you are right. Travel is a combination of highs and lows and dealing with difficulties. They may be mechanical related or an issue at a border or even being stopped by police 👮‍♀️. Which happened a lot. But always for a look at the truck and a chat. Russians and Kazakhs were great.

Criftins Campers both trucks had a removable chimney section. Was needed to get the right amount of draw.

I'm English and I'm struggling, its hard to speak out in the cold though in all fairness

Its a fair point. All the wood i burnt was from dead fallen trees.

@@matthewpayneadventurerfilm8902 fair enough

Ron Birchard hi Ron. Thanks for comment. So the Russians are use to the cold, like the Canadians. So we didn’t really expect problems with the fuel. Yes they use winter diesel but it seems not good enough. On inspection of local trucks you find insulated fuel tanks and I guess a heater somewhere. We also used additive when the fuel out the pump wasn’t winter diesel. We never intended to be in these temperatures. But various delays meant we were late leaving this part of the world.

So if I understand correctly, with good winter fuel, diesel dope and a fuel pre-heat you have no problems in -40deg C conditions to run your trucks? Anticipate being in similar conditions and am starting to research what I need... anything else that is vital? thanks

Robert Whalley - for some reason I can't read all you wrote but from what I can read... You just want to take away any possible problems for winter driving Check your coolant to be good for -45, maybe flush the system too. Have a winter front on. Diesel conditioner to stop gelling and moisture in fuel. Airline alcohol if you have air brakes. Maybe a block heater if you got electricity or coolant circulation heater. A diesel heater is probably built into your truck engine or do you mean for your interior compartment? There's after market stuff for that. There are also magnet heaters (electric) that come in handy cause you can place em where needed. The above stuff was stuff I did when I drove semi trucks in northern Canada and on ice roads. Oh snow chains are good to have. I alway had with me a emergency winter kit with me, dry food, clothing, candles matches fire starter sticks, axe wire wood saw.. Basically had almost 3/4 of my winter camping gear Having that stuff saved me as help found me 5 days after a major blizzard sitting around my fire, drinking tea and cooking a rabbit.

@@JonSnow-bc6ro thanks! Glad they found you))

That certainly was the way of the past in Russia, but it is getting better. I am very much against giving bribes. It just encourages it and makes it worse for other travellers.

Hi Ronni. Are you still near by?

Matthew Payne | Adventurer | Filmmaker hiya. Yep. I’m probably 300 yards away. On the golf course

@@Sub69ronnischrevel You playing Golf? Your welcome to come have a look. Just give us 10-minutes notice and we will make sure we are here.

Matthew Payne | Adventurer | Filmmaker Thank you so much. Really appreciate it. See you in 10. I’m in a Volvo so won’t get on the beach so I’ll park up by the huts. R

John B many reasons. 1. I didn’t have a Zil, 2, ridiculous fuel consumption. 3, parts are a problem outside of Ex soviet countries.

Which bit. Lots of different music used.

@@matthewpayneadventurerfilm8902 @ 6:27 its an amazing song. i do wonder what it is

Leyland Dafs. Ex British army

Turn on your subtitles man..

No problem here, could very well understand them. Keep up the good work guys! Hopefully we will be as good as this someday!
