- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 1 ต.ค. 2024
- Whilst I love my Scania, it's time to hand it over to someone I can trust and move on to pastures new. How about the super-sized Kenworth W900L as used in the film Smokey and the Bandit? Will this thing fit on the tiny European roads? Can I get it on to the Euro Tunnel train? Find out as I drive a Kenworth over to Southampton in the England.

Yes I know this videos old but my granddad has a Kenworth W900L here in Britain, and let me tell you it's the most amazing experience ever.
I love coming back and viewing these videos. I watched these growing up
Yeah. Enjoying rewatching the old vids. They are more 'fun' them his new stuff.
people all over the world do not realize it takes a lot longer to stop 80,000 lbs. then it does 4,000 lbs. this is why i believe people need to take a truck driving coarse before they can get their license. so they will stop saying it was the truckers fault for not stopping when they get into an accident because they pulled out in front of him/her. same thing goes for trains, it is not uncommon in the U.S. to see a train with more than 5 locomotives pulling 200+ cars. it takes more than a mile to stop 1 million+ pounds of freight.
Seems like I'm not the only one with common sense...
This statement is so true
i totally agree with you. people do need to realize that. P.S I'm pretty sure it comes with a 800 break engine.
Agreed. I've seen where cars pull out in front of trucks and almost get crushed
Squirrel needs to bring back these kinds of videos!
yes he dose i aggre
Jeff Coppo does* and agree*
TomtheYo-yoer Grammer Nazi
Oscar Hey That wasn't the Grammar Nazis, that was the Spelling Spetsnaz
Hehe
The boys are hungry in Southampton, and there's apples in Brussels, and we'll bring it back no matter what it takes.
bah HAHAHAHAHA!
when it comes to giving way to big trucks
my general rule is: they are bigger therefore they have right of way.
if a truck has a trailer on I always give at least 4 car lengths or more for them to turn safely
I ride with my grandpa all the time in his 18 wheeler and drivers like you are the ones we really to love
Can't belive this video is nearly 10 years old! I remember downloading this mod in 2013 and how i was so excited to be like Squirrel. We all remember the feeling of trying new trucks and seeing an American Icon! Squirrel started all of our love and our drive for trucks! And for that i thank u!
Front of that truck looks nice, back looks like the creator got bored of making a truck and left it all blank..
Agreed
He could of done the back edges so they stick out a bit:/

Nostalgia. Fucking nostalgia.
The L in W900L stands for Long Nose because of the long hood configuration, and I know because i am a Class 1 commercial driver in British Columbia, Canada.
I used to drive a W900L for H&R Transport out of Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada with a dedicated haul between Calgary and Vancouver, BC. I drive the Coquihalla (Highway Thru Hell) pretty much every day, either going East or West.

I am getting ready to buy another truck.I'm going to buy the Scania 1000 with a V-8 .very cool truck.i am getting it with tandem steering and tripple drive axels..ussing it for hauling logs and will be pulling 2 trailers.
The Australians also seem to love this truck, as they prefer them as well as Peterbilt, Mack, and the occasional Western Star rigs for their famous road trains.

jaun marntinez and us Aussies love our kennies
We know... you're all massive.
"going forward is not so bad, but the second you got to turn or reverse..."
American vehicles in a nutshell, lol.
I'm from the U.S. BTW.
Then ATS was born
Kenworth! Big Ol' Murican truck lol. My uncle drove one for years cross country (US). Nice rigs they are.
27:00 that exactly how you are supposed to stay in the middle of you lane.
Good Job on the video also
It feels like it's missing something on the chassis. I don't like it. But that's just my preference

Your video are very relaxing and enjoyable to watch! Keep up the good work and I have a tip and I know that I'm not a pro at this game, matter of fact I never played it before but I like it and wish I could anyway, you know when you go to Calalis, and when you are makin te right turn to go into the port, try turning left and then maybe it'll be eaiser to turn into the port to go down the ramp and that way the AI cars don't get in your way when you drive large loads.
Hi Squirrel,
First of all, great video.
I know truck drivers in Canada, so I can answer your questions with a certain degree of confidence. I know that it takes more than a year to get comfortable with parking a trailer, and that is with a few parking jobs a day (driving locally and not long distance, so more trailers moved at shorter distances). I have been told that some people cannot park properly even after a couple of years driving though, and take their sweet time doing the parking. In exams, the truck driver has 5 minutes to reverse the trailer and park it within 20 cm or so of a dock, which can seem like a long time, but really isn't.
Parking on the off side is very difficult. If you drive a non-sleeper truck, there is a window behind the driver which one can look through, instead of looking at the right mirror, in which of course you would see nothing but your own trailer until truck and trailer get aligned again. Otherwise, a person to guide on the outside is required. Meaningless to say, most of the time truck drivers here park on the driver's side, so that the driver can lean out the window and point the trailer in the right direction while nothing is visible in the mirror.
Just as a side note, not only trucks are bigger in North America, but the trailers are longer than in Europe as well, up to 53'. However, streets are wider and straighter, so it will be interesting to see how a North American Truck sim would turn out.
I see tons of these when I am on the road I live in the u.s
Anyone else watched this three times or more?
Me
Me
And me
And me
Bob McCoy i watched it about 50 times..
19:30 i swear that car didnt brake when turning
Before I start here I would like to say im 14, before you pass judgment and say I dont know anything cause of my age, my Pop has driven trucks for about 55 years, and my Dad has been for about 25 years, so yeah. Anyway getting on with it, this video was frustrating to me because bhp is measured differently to American and Australian trucks to European trucks, a European truck with 750 bhp, is equivilent to an American/Australian truck with 480 bhp (this isnt exact). In America/Australia bhp is measured under load, in europe trucks are not meazured in that way. Here in Australia we have something we like to call triple road trains, (3 trailers, 2 dollys) they are normally out west and are fully loaded with mining equipment (heavy shit). Normally thats all carried with kenworths with 480-600 bhp cummins engines in them. Then we have b-doubles which are our main highway trucks, you dont go anywhere without seeing one, these are just two trailers and a truck all together, fully loaded a b-double averages 68 tonnes, and thats just an average load weight for here in Australia, these loads are done by anything here really from 430 freightliners and up. Getting onto the size of this truck These W-models were really long prime movers, with shitty vision (as squirrel said) but the cabs were really small, you would be shoulder to shoulder with the passenger they weighed between 8 and 12 tonnes. just so you know nearly all Australian/American trucks come with an 18 speed road ranger gear box. Two last things, if you wanna see a massive truck with near to no frontal visibility look up a Kenworth T909, its bonnet is that tall you cant see anything for about ten-twenty meters out of the windscreen. And last look up a picture of a triple road train.
The "L" in w900L designates "Longer hood"...approximately 16" longer.. I know I drove one for a couple years...yes they are still in production...they are one of the most road worthy trucks out there for hauling the "Interstate" highways here in North America
Mostly right, but it's not 16" longer, it's 10" longer. A standard W900B has a bumper to back of cab length of 120", the W900L stretches that to 130". It also has a hood that slopes down a little, the B has a straight hood, and the L has a slightly narrower grille.
should have left the visor on it it looks bad A
I agree
+Jon Luc Despr
The visibility would of only been half of what it was with it off :/ so its good for looks but not practically
only 600 hp yes there engine is not as good as a cab over truck
The American trucks use real horsepower while the UK trucks just wanna look strong and powerful
FPSKoda4 I think it has more to do with the fact that the euro trucks have more strict emissions so they don’t feel or sound like they have the power of and American truck

This was the greatest squirrel episode ever!! hhaahaha
the funny part is he was in belgium :P were i live and the problems they got with the traffic jam and trucks are car's rain, are really true, you see this shit every day on the road :D
American Muscle. This is why they need USA truck simulator. Great truck too.
In the works as we speak.

For real? I just started playing EuroTruck 2 and I love it, that actually pretty cool to heard that ! I would love to drive Peterbilt, Kenworth, Mack, and fFreightliner Trucks across America! Usa, Canada
KevinGoldLVL Yep, and information about the game can be found at blog.scssoft.com/ and www.trucksim.org/, and I believe there is a Facebook page as well.
KevinGoldLVL Yeah the same company, that made Euro Truck Sim 2, is working on a game called "American Truck Simulator"
Nascarfan4348 Update: American Truck Simulator is going to be crap.
Squirrel, i have 2 awesome things: I can choose u as a driver picture when creating a new profile on ETS2 and im getting a steering wheel for my b-day on 3 november
yes it comes with a 600 bhp engine (and smaller)...however what your missisng is the 2100 ft lbs of torque...about three times the average european rig
not to mention the twin turbo's
those help too.
twin turbo's were on a few recent years of the 'cat' engine only..in the end they were too much trouble and not vey effective

In your 'display' settings there is a setting for from 25% - 400% I forget what it's called but there is only one place this is. What do you usually set that at and why? I have tried most of them and I set it to 400% with no FPS drops I always have at least 60 FPS. I have seen it go higher 61, 63 etc but it seems to stick at 60 FPS. With an older computer I used to have to set that at 50% but since I just bought a HIGH end gaming computer I can set everything at its highest setting including that 400%. What do you recommend and what are your settings at?
I have yet another question on the 'set speed limiter' on or off. I am stuck on 65mph (ATS) but applies to both ATS/ETS) no matter what I set that too and it seems that you can't even check that on or off sometimes. Is there some other setting that will get rid of the speed limiter? THX Squirrel.
1kmh = 0.62 mph. It's the golden ratio. So I do it by every 10 km. Where 100 km/h is 62 mph. and subtract or add 6mph for ever 10 kmh. Riding a motorcycle through Canada taught me that one. Don't know why I'm telling you this. Slow work day. I AM watching you drive a simulator. Life the videos.
never.....EVER.....ever....... take that sun visor off again

that's not the point, its hard to see in 1st person view
what does brony mean?
Back when squirrel swore everyone laughed but now if he swore the whole fanbase would pause😧
yes, they would run out in front of you in real life. yes, they come with 600 hp from factory if you buy it and its not underpowered, though most come with 450ish...which is horribly underpowered, especially with all the epa crap. I've always liked a W900, but my favorite is a Peterbilt 359. The truck I own and haul cattle with is a 87 Peterbilt 379. Instagram txcowmobeeler
Edit: KW W900's are inherently heavy, 34,000-36,000 pounds empty with a trailer.
believe it or not I saw a huge American style truck traveling at dome speed through a tiny lake district town, I have no idea how it fitted along any Cumbrian roads!
Your game has been corrupted by that ADD-ON..(MOD)...!!!
Traffic jam and screen blackout...
Kenworths don't have a logo on top of the bonnet unlike a Mack which has a dog. As we in the industry say, "spend the day looking up a dogs bum". Your reference for road positioning is absolutely correct, it is what we use in real life as well as the off side mirror.
I love kenworths, I love to ride with my second cousin in his 379 Pete or my grandpa in our farm’s international pro star. I’m working towards becoming a diesel mechanic like my uncle then gonna get a CDL so I can drive the farm semi during the fall
Can you interact with other players while driving?
The moment you said 'food' (at 24:32), I paused the video and grabbed a bag of chips.
Love ur new logo and I've been watching you since I was 8 I'm 13 now
Same I just came back here for a bit of nostalgia as I think this is possibly how I discovered squirrel
i had a W900L now i drive a peterbuilt 389 and they are actually normal size the cav is more narrow yeah but the sleepper is normal sized loool
13:04 that's what she said
God first and foremost Hello Mr Squirrel how are you me ok just a few pointers for you 1. You are right a the W-900-L is a big truck I drove one for a month its sits up high the ride was ok it was a semi dump truck its has room in its a good truck for the highway not a good truck for the city or excavation. The L stand for long nose I like the T -800 better drove one of them for 14 years its better for the city it ride ruff but it the way you spec it out both had cat motors 435 or C-12 they are good trucks for roll off to so nice to meet you have a bless day 😊
i remember when my dad took me in a truck like that i loved it.
i drive one of these in real life ..the w 900 L is an amazing truck the L stands for luxury model and its pretty easy to drive once you get use to it and yes the 675 hp engine is extremely powerful i can get up to 80 mph with it fully loaded 80,000 pounds but your right that truck has no place in the EU it turns waaay to wide and yes the stacks do block most of your view haha
im 9 years late but i believe the L in W900L stands for Long Hood. i may be wrong.
my friends dad owns a haulage company up in the northern half of western Australia (a.k.a the Kimberly), and she often travels with her dad on these huuge cross country 1,500 to 2,000 km journeys through Australia, and most of the time they are tandem trucks, and she often gets a hand at driving them, even though shes only 13...
bendybus I’m 13 now and honestly I wish I could do that. My family owns a winery and we drive a small trailer with my dads pickup truck (we live in the US) I would never get to drive it until I have a license
I’m 14 and I just drove a couple days ago on the highway, almost perfectly. It was my second time driving and honestly, I don’t know how I can drive perfectly already if I never had before. And it fascinates me. I think it might be because of Ets 2 and Ats.
I'm 11 and drive trucks on our farm and get paid for it
Let me tell you wow the early days of euro truck. The memories and now we have American truck. When will they bring us Aus Truck i live here and would love to see Tasmania
I am driving a Kenworth W900B ARI Legacy Sleeper in game and ya it is really hard to drive in Europe. It does bring a challenge which is nice
Interesting, from the wikipedia article on the truck: "The engine sizes for the W900 range from 9 liters to 16 liters, and it accommodates up to a 625-horsepower engine."
The "L" signifies Long hood. The 900L has a longer hood than the standard 900.
Oh the irony... Gets busted doing 53 in a 40 zone less than 200 meters away from a national speed limit sign... (National speed limit here in the UK is 60mph on a single carriageway and 70mph on a dual carriageway although trucks are generally limited to 55mph by a governor/engine management system)
Time-stamp?
44:41 Just before the tunnel. National speed limit sign is just after the tunnel. :D
Sy Thanks. :-P
These are badass trucks. I drive one and it is a beast. But I drive in the states.
Im european but i want sooooo much the American truck simulator, im hopping they make a dlc were we can drive on canada... imagine driving in a frozen lake and wheel sliping when go full speed... you guys know what im talikng :D
That would be awesome I live in canada...it would be awesome if you can do long drives from Newfoundland And Labrador to Calgary haha
Back when Paul was a Sweary Paul....
i have 142 trucks an 1442785494 money and im level 900
Anybody else watching this in 2021 because their bored af
Squirrel The ZF Tronic is the auto box, and the 18 Speed range is a "range change manual" box mate, I guess it is something similar to the European old school Eaton Twin Split, just a guess as I haven't driven one, only driven the Eatons and other euro boxes... ;)
i owed a w900L with a cat 550hp and eaton 13 speed, L is just the top model, i had a volvo vn770 with a cummins 500hp after that. then my last truck before i retired was a 2012 frightliner cascadia. with a DD 16 650 hp and an eaton straight 10 speed, love these vids.
Squirrel, I just got me the Longitech 27 wheel and paddles with shifter. I'm having a hard time to getting it all setup right, could you help a old man out ... I really enjoy all your video's.. Try 18 Wheel of Steel if you want to drive America !
This was my favorite childhood video thank you for all the memories
I like how the landing gear magically raises itself and there's no airlines very realistic still looks entertaining
the mod isnt working for me after i have extracted it, it is showing up on my mod bar but isnt showing up at the dealership which is annoying, anyone else with the same problem ?
+Billy Fawcett ditto, not showing up at Iveco
My dad yous to drive a kenworth w900l with 22 gears
They should have a version where drivers have over-sized loads and try to avoid scales, avoid the DOT, and fudge their log books so they don't get tickets.
you think that little play toy your driving is big that's nothing I drive a 600hp kenworth W900L in Australia and I pull a road train with three 40 foot trailers and all up its between 80 and 100 tone
In installed the file for this truck in to my mod folder. QUESTION, where do I go to see and drive this truck? I don't have a Kenworth dealer on the maps.
Yeah the Kenworth trucks are made by Chevy so they are THE WORST TRUCK! {CHEVYS ONLY LAST 5 YEARS!} thats why the engine sucks
Had to come back and say that I been a fan since 2013 and I love your truck vids I discovered you when I was 13 now I'm 22 and still a fan
The scania is way too small to be seen on an American road
25:56 lol good video, I've watched two of your videos already totaling an hour and a half ha. Anyways nice work.. very entertaining
That truck has a peterbilt 379 interior
pilots always be on centerline :D like u using the bonet center to keep the truck in lane... man FSX changed my way of driving a truck in truck simulator :D
That truck is a Kenworth v10 and a little what should i say ummm... oh yeah um I DRIVE that truck it is easy i have never crashed for 40 years!
use the baoba tree (you know the thing from 70 tonne volvo) on this that would be epic and if it would work than go thru north africa with it using tsm that would be the best and funniest trip ever
You have reached your destination
THIS IS NOT NEW YORK! THIS IS YORK!
squirrel is swering he didn't swer in vids
I drive a Big Rig and it's not as hard as people think but other drivers cut you off and it doesn't brake easily because we carry so much weight.
Before my wife got sick I drove trucks here in the US. I drove two W-900's among many other types. The first had a 13 spd with a 14L 3406 500 hp Cat. The second had a 15L 13 spd C15 550 hp Cat. Both pulled really strong. The King of the Hill Cat was a 16L engine and I THINK it was only built 2 years due to horrendous fuel consumption.
Do you engine brake in this video with this truck?
To answer you're question about the truck, the L stands for long hood. Also about the engine depending on where you buy the truck, like from a dealer might get options to upgrade my dad did when he bought his KW but his was a 96 w900l with a 550cat single turbo 18speed. as far as how much power engines are putting out now I don't know, I might be wrong but I think the c15 is the 550 cat and has torque of 1,850pound feet of torque. don't really need more then 600+horses to move the truck, but more power more fun it makes I bet ;)
Squirrel how is your looking so smooth? I know that you are using a controller but yeah How . Mine isn't that smooth!
sorry bad english!
I think you're funny and good driver. I'm interested in driving trucks simulators but have no experience at all.
thanks dude.
Try backing up in an actual 18 wheeler, you think it's hard in a video game, try doing it for real. This game sucks
The answer to your question as well is yes. That truck can and will hit 90 MPH. The 18 speed that is modeled in your mod there is probably not modeled properly with the coupling with the big Cat King. Obviously that is well above most speed limits in America but she is definitely capable of it. I do have to say I have GREATLY enjoyed watching this. My question is this. Are you a real trucker or do you just play the game?
Squirrel, as an over the road truck driver for over 22 yrs, seeing the W900L intrigued me to watch this vid. A few points, the emblem for the KW is a front facing one, the chrome piece at the end of your "bonnet" is a grab handle to pull open the hood. It doesn't show in the mod, but there is a big red KW on the front of it. As to the physics in turning, long wheel base trucks do not have the body lean a Euro truck would have. Watching the vid I didn't see much wrong with the physics. Yes, cornering is very tricky, W9's are not known for a tight turning radius. As far as the skill set to drive a truck over the road properly, there's never enough time behind the wheel to learn everything. As I said, I drove for over 22 years, and if i wasn't learning something new every trip, I would have become dangerous. It's more of a skill set, I took to it naturally, behind the wheel of these big trucks, I was in my element. I enjoyed the KW purchase, don't sell it!! A few more trips and you'll grow to love that big bitch!!! (and stay out of the UK, those roads are soooo small!!)
I can remove the speed limit without any mod, it's in the gameplay section of the options I believe. It should be called "speed limiter" or something. (Idk, my game is in french lol..)
Cheers, nice video :)
Edit: I just checked it's indeed in the gameplay section, and the option is called "Truck speed limiter". I removed that because i was annoyed not being able to go further than 90kmh. xD
I take it you haven't been to the U.S. if you're surprised by the size of a big rig. The Big Rig is the dominant truck here.
I drive a truck in the US aside from playing ATS, I haven't tried ETS2 yet, but now I'm wondering how long that trailer is. Lol I'm so used to pulling a 53' trailer in real life, and I would've had to take the turn at 23:25 so much wider than you took it. Normally I wait until there's no traffic, pull straight out, pull into the opposite lane for a second and then back into my lane, and watch the trailer tandems in my mirror miss the curb by less than a foot. Watching you just turn straight into your lane made me nervous 😂
Where I work, we have a peterbilt 359 with a 425 hp Cummins engine. It will pull a kobelco 200 excavator (roughly 15 tons) with no problem. Does it need more hp? No not necessarily but it always helps especially with the hills in Pennsylvania/west Virginia area.
i put a modded truck into my euro truck simulator file and saved it into the mods file but when i go into the game i dont know where to find the truck can anyone help me please
Holy Crap the AI at the traffic jam worked like real life the car did not go when it should. This game looks and feels so realistic and yes everything you are complaining about with the mirrors and windows frames are the same in real life. LOL you did the same thing I did making a left turn the first day I drove this thing I had to back up a little to make the turn.
If there is anything you want to know about driving a Semi let me know I was a Ohio State Certified Semi Instructor. I can not drive anymore since I have a couple spots on my brain and I have Vertigo I drove for 17 years even driving doubles with FedEx.
Welcome to driving a REAL truck my English friend. That is EXACTLY what the real thing looks like and drives like. She is a BITCH to back up but there is nothing better than an old fashioned KW or a Pete. Interestingly enough though KW and Pete are made in the same factories. :)
