    Great drone shots jonno, gee that convoy of trucks travelling together would be a nightmare for other trucks or cars to overtake . Great video. Those guys were lucky you came along, they had no idea

    Fantastic, it's not tiring to watch it on repeat! BUT, every time you change gear without the clutch, I get terribly confused! Here it's always with the clutch and double-clutched!! Although now everything has an automatic gearbox and in some cases a manual gearbox is an option.

    And how to get enough air to fill all units??

    • @RoadTrainAdventures
      @RoadTrainAdventures  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I'm not sure if you're first question, if you could reword it.
      I could have four trailers and the air will fill up each trailer starting with the front. Most of the time, if the trailers don't have big air leaks they will still have a fair amount of air so it doesn't take long before you can drive.
