Pro #6: Best. Horn.

Wish I had found this video sooner. The Pacific 16 has a load ratting of 510 tons or 300,000 pounds. It is a massive beast.

Basically, it's a monster. I got the free one and never looked back. It's a beast as long as you can handle it, it's my go to for all the heavy high saddle mission trailers cause it will pull them all without hesitation or trouble. I wish it would get what the GMC did and get a AWD upgrade, but it would instantly become the most powerful heavy hauler in the game, but I can hope.

“Ok, now onto the the pros, pro number 1: it’s the p16, enough said.”😂

I overlooked it too on my first play through but did not sell it. Learned its worth in Alaska when I took it out of storage in desperation. It was the only truck in my fleet that could haul the construction drill rig trailer through the mud field on the way out of the service site in North Port. Even when it seems to be sunk and stuck, it suddenly finds grip.

Yup, it is insanely powerful, i just got it, and i've only used it for one logging contract, but managed to get 4 medium logs from island lake to drummond island in only 2 trips, it feels nice hauling two trailers at once and actually moving forward. Don't mention turns tho, i prefer to forget those

I love that truck along with the pacific p512 pf, those 2 trucks are the 2 I use the most and think are the most use full.

Even upgraded its struggling, had the 8x super heavy trailer loaded and clean asphalt uphill, just no wheel spin nothing, just growling engine. Had to tow every time with the articulated CAT, rebuilding paper factory.

Man, I've rolled this sucker a couple times and it's devastating each time. Had to get good with heavy crane to get it right

thank u man, your reviews are amazing

i just speedran geting the p16 in hard mode and was able to yoink it in like 1 hour. time to make all the truck rescue missions of early game a breeze

First off thank you for your service as we celebrate July 4th. I have let you talk me into trying this truck again and I have to say I am impressed. I like you overlooked it. Question however I believe this and the p12 have the same engine why does the p12 seem so much weaker. I know tires are different but it seems almost night and day difference. Keep up the good work we all appreciate you and your reviews.

It has also one of the most satisfying horns.

Good review as always. A truck that maybe has gone under the radar of a lot of people. But as soon as i saw it with that wide frame i said this is the perfect truck to tow and never look back cuz it will not flip.

Love the p16, always a go to when I need to pull something heavy through rough terrain, with the tires, it seems like it will go through most things, albeit slowly but consistently :)

Could you imagine if the P16 had awd? It would be an absolute BEAST!

Right On! The mighty P. It’s cool that you decided to give this truck a review. Although I disagree as to the number 1 upside, the best thing and the number 1 upside is the horn. LMAO🤣. That horn has medicinal properties.🤘😬🤘

p16 holds a special place in my heart for singlehandedly destroying every kola map like it was nothing. seriously more people need to at least try it out. it doesnt have awd, but thats because it doesnt need it.

The Derry longhorn that you rescue out of the creek in Alaska is a pretty strong truck. It has awd. Its a heavy hauler like the p16. The turning radius also sucks. Plus it has way more add on options.

This thing is almost impossible to roil over. i love it.

i fell down the same trap with this truck. i was turned off by the lack of awd but i first used it in wisconsin and my god, what a beast. i find myself blown away by how quick it moves through water and deep mud despite not looking like it would be able to

One of the best trucks in the game, doesn't even need awd. Also very fun and sounds good.

Just found this monster last night omg its like driving a house on wheels lol it compliments good patient drivers like me and the power and stability are scary. I drove it right away after finding it i couldn't wait and yes its slow and bulky but hey its supposed to be its made for huge hauls with huge trailers it will make you a better driver if you're not already and you'll love it.

i can't believe that you sold this for cash haha 😂 that is like a huge power spike early game not to mention its iconic truck even if you dont know alot about trucks... anyway it's really fun lookin back on your old vidoes 👍

Alway has and always will be my favoriten truck

i looked away for a second and flew off the edge with this truck. it didnt flip. i just dif locked my way up the mountain with no problem

Please please do more dlc truck, damit do all the trucks, you are a fantastic reviewer.

Pro#7: highest saddle in the game, tied with Kolob 74760. Other trucks often have issues with the Superheavy Semi-Trailer high centering on crests, or get caught on roots. P16 and 74760 ride it high enough to get over most of those.

That truck save me the game at beghining!

That's true! The best non AWD truck at the game! 👍

Damn now I gotta get it back 😂

I made same mistake with selling this car. howewer in time i found this car is rly beast

Love the power of it but have had it launched into the air for some reason twice now, thing spun around in the sky without coming down until I recovered it, haven't had this issue with any other truck (sometimes physics will be strange but never multi ton trucks flying through the air except for the P16, still good for logs though just don't get any obstacles like tree stumps or guard rails under it if you can avoid to do so)

Missed a Pro: That horn.

Somehow i lost long logs add on for the p16, i installed some cheat for AWD but then the log carrier front got stuck under the truck. To fix this i had to sell the truck and buy back, since then no more front log carrier for long logs on this truck. Any idea how to fix this?

When I play I use the p12 when I get in trouble and if all else fails I bust out the azvov

Believe it or not , I managed to tip it 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I was at the quarry . I backed up with the log trailer end . It jackknifed, turned sideways , jetted me upwards , then sideways …. And boom , landed on my side … truck stalled … 🤣🤣🤣 had it for 90 minutes loll

A little off topic but should I sell my yar 87

You sold it on your first playthrough? Huh... And here I thought keeping and testing every truck would've been the obvious choice. Heh, different playstyles.

How those awesome horns are not #1 upside?

Really now? I just had the biggest disappointment of this truck after getting it. Steering this trucks is extremely laggy. I mean, I would expect that, considering it's a heavy truck. But it doesn't feel "heavy" to me but rather "soapy", if that makes sense. Feels like you're steering a sledge, not a truck with wheels, seems to me that despite the motor is in the front, even without cargo, the weight balance is off, even if that's good for mud on a RWD-only truck. However, the frustration was not caused by that, but bring long logs to the quarry in Smithville Dam and you'll see. I could deliver the logs, but apparently there's no way to get it out of there anymore, it got stuck on every exit. Now there's another 14k Trailer laying around somewhere. xD Anyway, why does that thing cost 14k anyway? I mean compared to the other trailers that are massive and cost like half of that.

this guy not old enough for roll tape (I had to go back from Yukon to fetch the p 16)

I really wish it had AWD. It's supposed to the "ultimate logger" but even the International HX puts it to shame hauling long logs You say "P16", I say "P sa crap"

Hard to flip ? Yeah no I don't think so. Flipped it twice in an hour the first time

There is another pacific trucks much better than this it has and n the diff lock n u can change the tires unlike this one

Its horrible truck. You did right thing when you sold it in first gameplay
