Me: This truck is pretty slow I think I can pass it
Me 2 seconds later: HOLY SHI-
that was a car around 8:30 ahaha (look in the mirror)
It is intense actually passing a road train for the first time. Especially when you're following the truck at 100ks and you have to do 130km to pass it in a vehicle that struggles to do 120 haha. The best thing you can do is radio the truck and request him to lookout for suitable pass.
Me 2 minutes later: WHERE IS THE END OF THIS THING?
@@bathgrub8751 how?
@@NovumSB how radio? Or how speed past him? -Radio (UHF or CB) on national highway channel 40 here in Australia, unless otherwise specified. -Speed past, meaning right foot to the floor and pray there's no potholes, kangaroos, camels, cows/bulls or other traffic.
The thing to look for passing a road train is the swerving of the last trailer. A minor steering correction in the cab compounds to a tail whip on the back of the road train.
This is actually allowed in the northern parts off australia, I think the max trailer count is actually 6
But your talking about roads that you might not see a city for 2 - 4 hours with no speed limits, and when it comes to approaching a bigger city they detach a couple trailer make the deliver than they come back, drop off those trailer and then go deliver the other trailers,
They are called road trains
BIG COZZA they’ve got b quads in nsw now
outback truckers am i right
You'd find quads aren't super common though. Four fully loaded trailers have got a fair bit of weight. There's buckets of triples getting around though.
I love those they are huge 😍
I see a quad every day of the week and use to drive a quad when I was 18
“Is this train sim or truck sim?”
Squirrel: “Yes”
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
24:40 I've had to detach a trailer before entering a gas station before because I knew there would be no way to get out. I just left the trailer on the road.
It's the only way to do so properly.
Halby G in real life?
Yeah, I was thinking the same thing when he fueled up. Detach trailer on road, fuel up, reattach and continue on.
how can you play with it?
i did it in ats a few times and one time i hooked back up and the trailer was at 50% damage from the ai or something
Imagine driving into a dead end with this
Aldin lmao
You're basically dead on the dead end
Aldin Just grab the gun at that point
Lol
or miss an exit
As a tractor unit accelerates it tries to pull out from under the trailers. 65 tonnes holding back the tractor all on the king pin. This is above the rear wheels and thus is a pivot point. The wheels want to go forward the fifth wheel wants to stay where it is owing to the massive weight. This causes the front wheels to lift. Look at tractor pulling the front wheels come up. The way to combat it is to have a longer chassis and move the 5th wheel as far forward as possible. Or have twin front steering axles as well.
Thanks for that in depth explanation
Wheeeelieeess!! Yeah there is a 4 axle truck 2 steering and 2 drive youd get that in the likes of volvo which is what I have. It might need weights in the front lol and extra grunt and fuel required to power itself
Or have a single drive 2 axle truck 😂
C.
You gotta love the ai in this game. It's so funny and infuriating to watch them try to get around.
I hate ai
I love ur name
Only Paul could deliver this undamaged.
Imagine this playing online
Imagine driving this thing on Calais-Duisburg on Europe 2 server. :))
300% damage
Oh yeah
XD
You could actually collect toll fee with thing being as 4 piece gate.
Haaaaa
51:05 is all you need to know why his name is Squirrel :P
18:24 Game: *Ogre Discovered*
Shrek: _oH hElLo ThErE!!_
Loop all the way around the round about and see if you can hit you're own trailer
Try the 6 trailer version!
do you have a link to it?
It's on the workshop
He is going to cash
He should have a long line of trailers stretching beyond the horizon along the road all the way to his destination so when he hooks them up he is already there.
That would be complete overkill
You do know, long trucks are totally allowed to cut a bit of the roundabouts, right? You don't have to do the full circle, you can go more straight.
1:33 There's a party in the second trailer lmao
That was the jankiest refuel I have ever seen. I loved every second of it.
65 tons of shock absorbers. Can't help but just laugh at that!
hat4rack I thought exactly the same lol..
that would be many shock absorbers :D
It's like those math situations where people buy 64 watermelons and stuff 😂
It's shocking....sorry, couldn't help myself
It would only be 35000 and that is 4 53 foot trailers so it probley do have that many in it
65 ton is light for a quad we do that with b doubles here in Australia.
63.5 in Canada, even if you have a 9,100 kg steering axle instead of a 5,500 one.
I’ve heard we can get them up to 6 trailers long.
B double is short.
Is 1 20 foot with 1 40 foot trailer
A road train is 3 to 6 40 foot trailers
Yeah literally! My work has shipping containers that leave on b triples some days and the containers are 32 ton each when they’re full 😂
You're wondering through the woods when you find an abandoned swamp, suddenly you hear running, you turn around to see what it was and then 18:24
*Edit*
Guys thank you so much for the upvotes ! I’d never have thought it would reach this crazy figure 😆
*/Edit*
It’s Sunday night, 2 am. I can’t sleep and here I am watching some dude driving a road train carrying 65 tons on a computer simulator based on some weird CZcams recommendation.. and tomorrow I work at 9
Had the same thing for a long time, until realized that it's not good for you. So I quit my job.
HAHAHAHA same right now
TheUnstoppableMr sane
Same*
omg this is me
that was awesome I actually watched that all the way, I was so immersed I pressed F1 to try and pause this video when I needed to step away LOL
The light front end wouldn't be the weight pushing down on the fifth wheel, it'd be the 65T pulling back on the fifth wheel thereby pulling up on the front axle.
Oh boy! A single is never enough, double is not about right, a triple is just about mending the rules, a quad never better!
That was one hilarious video, between the ai second-guessing their decision to pull out "in front of a train", the gas station stop blocking the road and the trucks spawning in fences and trees, it was perfect!
We are onto Quadruple now?!? Madness.
Solomon Tetteh I surely would've crashed that thing multiple times
Solomon Tetteh I love it channel
How does he get to access these cities? Promods? dlcs?
Wilson Lau Wei Sheng dlc pretty sure
Calle A.R hmm which dlc
Reminds me of the Snake game on Nokia mobiles :)
G1nge_UK Nostalgia
Xd nice one
XD
This game looks really nice with that level of difficulty. Was at the edge of my seat the whole time.
2:45 - I laughed so hard on this part......LMAO
imagine being able to de-couple all the trailers, and then deliver them one-by-one to different destinations along the way :D
Squirrel is the only you tuber that I can sit through a hole hour long euro truck video with out skipping to the end.
25:00 Why didnt you just temporarily abandon the train mid road, go with the tractor to the pump, then return and hookl backup?
Nice driving mate, im a truck driver irl and one small tip i can give you is when making a turn thats a bit cheeky for the length of trailer(s) you have hug the outside for as long as you can until either traffic blocks you or you trailer clears corners :) hope it helps
The reason the front wheels are lighter than usual is because the drive wheels are underneath the fifth wheel. The drive wheels apply a forward force to the bottom of the truck's chassis, while the loaded trailers (65 t) apply a rearward force to the top of the chassis. These forces cause the chassis to want to rotate upwards, lightening the load on the front axles.
It's like if the top of a sailboat's mast hits a bridge. The bridge applies the rearward force against the top of the mast, and the energy carried by the hull at the bottom constitutes the forward force. As such, the entire boat wants to rotate and the front of the boat lifts up.
Hopefully that makes sense.
Baisically a wheelie
He's well aware of that but he correctly makes the point that only the first trailer produces a downward force onto the fifth wheel, because the second trailer rest on the axles of the first one, not on the fifth wheel and so forth down the line
Actually depending on the relative positions of the hitches on the trailers and their axles, the second trailer might even push up the first trailer's front even reducing the downward force on the fifth wheel
Thank god someone realized
Gabriel Song I'm not in a science lesson jees
Gabriel Song is this a mod?
Where do I get it?
Imagine this in multiplayer...
@Scorpion pretty bad actually, being locked to vanilla game sucks
Why did play Train Simulator??? The title said Truck!!!
Makes sense
Lazy Leecher lol, good one
RedGaming Studio the truck is as long as a train.
Its a road TRAIN
Drives half a small roundabout with a 4 trailer train with no damage or destruction like a champ.
This is like snake from those old nokia phones
SpooqiGhost yo so tru bro
Just wanted to say thank you for the ETS videos. You got me in to ETS2 and I love it, you're the champ of simulator CZcams heaven . I'm just waiting for a better PC so I can play other sim games now. Great videos S!.
Not surprised. Multiple trailers like that track better than just a single trailer.
Fun fact in canada it is really common for drivers to throw on the signal to go into the right lane on a passing lane, I drive transport across country and see it very often
USE YOUR GODDAMN INDICATORS
Ikr
Ady_98 indicators is a choice to use and he doesn’t care about it when he is carrying 4 trailers.
Henri Markus Luts is it
Henri Markus Luts he has 4 trailers
Henri Markus Luts would u care about indicators when driving this it is safer not to so you can focus on not hitting other cars.
20:39 the AI has become self-aware!
it has begun :O
Pickle Rick YAY
This is hilarious if you're Estonian. He just delivered 65 tons of shock absorbers to Kärdla - a town with a population of around 3000 people.
I was laughing so much when you were in the Petrol Station :-)
Im from Koknese, it was weird to suddenly see a familiar sight :D
20:24
"But you never know, you know?" Paull, 2017
It's pretty normal for busses to use a bit of the road from the other lanes when turning. Because the wheels are way back beyond the driver, they have a large "Overhang" freely translated from Dutch ;) Being a bus driver for a couple of years, it's something I'm used to, but other drivers don't seem to undertsand a bus really needs this space without cutting the inner corner.
Had a test lesson on a coach beginning of June, it was sooooo weird to enter a roundabout and with the nose of the bus nearly being in the bushes on the center terrain hearing the instructor go "aaaaaand now we start turning fully right" and upon ending up with the nose in the bushes almost on the center dividers hearing "aaaaand now we slowly start turning fully left" :P.
And the remark of how upon nearing an overpass that had one of it's support columns right on the right edge of the lane we were driving in "We are going to invade the lane for oncoming traffic just a bit, because we will need to force them to do something with our presence in order for us not to shatter our mirrors on the overpass' support column", was also new and a bit odd, not something you will hear in driving school for the regular car :P .
that is the coolest intro ive ever seen on youtube hands down
Squirrel wouldnt be Squirrel if he didnt do what he promised
Im from australia and this makes me a proud camper
Crew ship company: let's ad a truckers lounge to bring more trucks
Squirrel: you allow any truck?
Crew ship company: YES!!!! =)
Squirrel: 4 trailers?
Crew ship company: ...
27:50 Squirrel (worried): hang on buddy we got a bit of a road train going on here.
27:54 Squirrel (happy): Hey that worked actually.
27:54 Me (pure laughter): That mood change was soo quick lol.
did you realize you passed a petrol station at 18:29 just before the inactive station?
It would be so nice if it was possible to make a mod like follow me in fs, so that you could have a car going in front of you and behind you with beacon lights and warning signs!
Well we could be seeing that soon. SCS retweeted an image from Gamescom showing a player having an Oversized Cargo (potentially new DLC) and escort vehicles. Also this was teased on their Christmas video and blog.
Joe Parkinson That's so cool, exactly what I was asking for!
As long as the car takes your detours, it would be great it would actually be realististic. at least where I live, they don't allow beacon in my state and you must use escourt car's if your so heavy or so large or long.. the only extra lights your allowed is width lights for night driving. Only emergence or police or offical vehicles of the state can have a blinking beacon on top of there car.
check the new SCS news because they are releasing a new 'special transport' dlc soon with warning signs and new trailers and more!
New Special Cargo DLC released yesterday has this feature. Enjoy!
Now we just need the ability to pick them up individually, attach them to a train and off you go. Detach one by one and park side by side at the destination.
(stopped video at 4:00 to comment) I think that the reason the front feels like it's so light and lifting up etc is because even though all the weight isn't resting on the rear axles of the tractor, the tractor still has to pull that weight, so as those rear wheels fight to pull that weight along, the torsion of all that torque is causing the front end to lift up of the ground. In real life you'd see the front of the truck twisting and lifting upward as the rear wheels fight to move the load.
when i fill up with huge trailers i detach them on the road then fill up drive back to the road and reattach. i know its illegal but it gets the job done.
Toxic Mango lmao
LOL, I was just watching the triple trailer episode you did a few days ago! XD
P.S. Hi squirrel...
Why is your profile pic of the ROBLOX Logo?
I mean, I play ROBLOX...

As a professional driver, I indicate when a left lane opens up, to let road users behind me who can't see round that the road is opening up stops them thinking of rashly overtaking to gain 3 seconds. Besides I was always told on my test to always indicate even if no one is around, as it becomes habit forming and that means you'll start to do it without thinking. one less thing to worry about when there are so many bad drivers to contend with, and its good practice.
How many axles does this truck have?
Squirrel: "Yes."
23 axles
"Do not stop on the hill, you utter scumbag"
Love it. Great video man !!!!!
Anyone see the near head on collision at 8:40 😂
Good catch through the mirror! haha
I've seen to many IRL that start in similar way :) And, BTW I'm originally from Latvia, where that part of this video takes place :)
Yeah. It looked like a cop trying to pull him over.
Luke Tennant i
I'm surprised he never mentioned the other 4 trailers at the drop off point. They were also strung across that really tough fence. :-) I wasn't surprised at the fuel consumption, I drove my car towing my boat from the coast 500Km to home and almost doubled my fuel consumption and it was nowhere near 65 tonnes, it was possibly only 1 tonne.
BTW... you should really keep your indicators on till the trailer has passed the turning lol
Awesome Vid Sir :D
Did anybody realise he was burning a litre of fuel a second
This looks entertaining, time to relax and enjoy
The next game they make should be Australian truck simulator
I’d be all for that i mean 500T trailers through the outback would be fun
That would be boring af. Just long straight roads and nothing else.
@@theyoutubeguy1 Outback roads are barely boring, there are so many things that can go wrong.
I would love that drive a b double from Melbourne to Adelaide on the freeway decent
Maybe Asian truck simulator?
Haha, my dad is from Haapsalu. Also i can't imagine anyone on Hiiumaa needing 65 tons of shock absorbers, ever.
Great entertainment vid! However, from someone who has driven class 1 for a living - A) We wouldn't have risked not filling up at the first fuel station - it was obvious that 65 tonnes would chew through the fuel quicker than say 26 tonnes. B) Whenever we need the road space to manouver around obstacles we do not hesitate to use the opposite side of the road, if available, if not, we wait until we have the room to negotiate the obstacle/s. Valiant drive in the quad Squirrel. Having said all this, the largest I have driven in real life is an 18 metre Drawbar.
1:44 I'am done with work boss, what's next
18:26 shrek?
Latvia's city
Imagine driving this thing and you arrive at an underpass only to find out you're too high.
Squirrel, I discovered your channel thanks to msfs2020, but I have to tell you that I never thought in my life that I would enjoy watching someone play a truck simulator. To be honest, I always thought it was a bit mental someone could play that. And now I want to play. Well done, sir. 👍🏻
50:15
LOOOOOL
Imagine driving this throw London city at rush hour.
Epics Gamers
Everyone : “RUN BEFORE YOU GET RAN OVER”
Driver : *screams* “WHOS GONNA RUN ME OVER?”
Men i tell you ooof
Squirrel: Ralf has never taken a sick day, never left, never asked for a pay rise.
Me, inside: I KNOW WHO HE IS, BOY! Cause he's ME.
In Germany, such a quadruple articulated trailer would be 10000% illegal. Maximum length permitted under exception rules of the Federal Transportation Ministry: 25.25 metres. And in the video, I'd guesstimate a total 35 metres minimum, max 50 metres.
SQuirrel try the 6 trailer i tried it and i laughed so hard i fel off my chair
greetings from holland
You should have had a train horn on the train truck
I know this is old vid but, I've found a couple helpful tips for AI traffic. Your Light Horn (it flashes your brights) will tell other truck drivers (AI Truckers) you are giving them the right-of-way and they will proceed ahead of you. And when you are waiting to turn and AI stops in front of you, if you turn off your blinker they will think you're going strait and will continue on, getting out off your way. Still don't know why they ram into your trailer, and still don't know why they brake-check you right before a hill climb, but hey..it's more realistic than you think.
"That was a silly road design going from 2 to 1"
Dude this city where I live has those 2-lane-traffic-lights-merge-to-1-after things CONSTANTLY. It's a great big ol' mess when it's busy lol
Imagine trying to overtake this thing on a single lane road
Quad Trailers are very common in Australia, we call them Road Trains. Over take them a few times mostly iron ore quads.
How the graphics are so colorful wow :O
51:42 Only an expert can do that!! Who would ever complete the delivery like that? Because I know it wasn't for me!!
When I go for discoverables, I drop the trailer on the road and leave it there temporarily while I drive past the discoverable with the tractor. Same thing at at hard-to-reach gas stations at 24:45.
And there are times I just had to ram through all the cars in my way and rack up a bunch of crash violations all at once :-/
You can also save your game when you get stuck in a traffic jam, and then reload from that same save and the traffic will be gone.
If there's a mod for multiple heavy cargo trailers, give that a try next time
I'm working on making a road train out of baobab's
Where is my summer car!
That was way more entertaining than I thought it would be! LOL! Brilliant ending!
Actually watched the whole video was very interesting and entertaining.
Spawned in a tree lmao! :D
Is this part of the actual game or is this a mod
good video, I love watching you drive and make up solutions for problems I never imagined could be possible. Keep the great work going
No one replied, sadly, in all these years that passed. I also wonder whether it is a mod and if yes, what mod exactly?
I know this is old video but in regards to your theory on trailer weight vs steering, yes you only have 16t on the fifth wheel but you have a 67tonne anchor behind you, your torque is what pulls the front wheels up not the weight of all the trailers, they just cause rolling resistance
7:12 Quite a lot of people rides like that in Latvia
try that in multiplayer
Too long not allowed :/
when you see damage on the truck or trailer without hitting anything it means your trye has worn by one percent
btw which map is this
it's promods
This should have been a train of cattle trucks or flatbeds full of new farm implements hammering through the Australian outback.
When you need fuel on a multi trailer train it's always going to cause a pile up so I simply stop on the road, decouple, drive into the gas station, fill up then drive out and recouple again.
DAM WAS FUN
Thats a Road Train :)
This the type of shit you see rolling through the outback at like 80mph
6:57 I don't know much about this game, but I'm a truck driver. That sounds like either a flat tire or bent rim. It's usually on the trailer because the driver does not notice it.
