    This one hits different! Welcome back to another vlog guys in this video we start things off a little different by loading up on a farm near Tully up in North Queensland. After that its back down to Townesville to hook back up as a Roadtrain and then plant my foot all the way back to Brisbane as usual. I apologise for the change of mood halfway through the video as i got really sick but pushed through because nothing was gonna stop me getting home lol i hope you guys enjoy this one as much as i enjoyed making it! lets go for a drive!

    That camera angle on the head rest was the best yet 👍

    Great view from the passenger seat, keep more of that vision coming as it's good to see what your doing with gear shifts and the road ahead at the same time. Safe travels.

    Young fellow, if it’s that steep straight out of overdrive into direct then full gear changes after that. Less chance of a cock up.
    Nice vid just the same.

    Headrest camera worked great I reckon. So cool to see the scenery up north, great video mate. If you're looking for more camera angles (I think the headrest cam is excellent) you could try setting up the camera in the bunk. I tried it a while ago and uploaded it on my other channel, it wasn't perfect but with a bit of messing around I am sure it would look good especially in a narrow cab like the SAR. I had the camera on a hardhat, then that was on top of my work bag which was on top of the mattress lol th-cam.com/video/1Cb-c3cPenY/w-d-xo.html

    So weird, in remebered the hills instantly.. then you said Tully. Been there more then 10 years ago with my wife as a tourist (from the netherlands), by accident we had the slower train from Darwin to Proserpine. Years passed and now i also have my truck drivers license, just as a hobby. Next to my normal job.
    Keep trucking, hope to visit Australië again sometime!

    Sir, Namaste Sir, if you have been driving in Australia, then you have experience outside. Sir, I want to become a new driver. I want to go to Dubai and after Dubai maybe go to Europe or America in two-four years. Sir, but I have a problem with one thing? I have seen this at many places and I see it true on the internet too. Research is going on right now like driverless cars and trucks. It looks like this, research is going on in America and everywhere else. Driverless tax and trucks: Do you believe that driverless tax and buses and trucks will no longer require drivers? When she leaves, I too get scared of talking to her. That's why I think more about whether I should go into this field. What is your opinion? What about this? The need for drivers will disappear in the next 20 years. Trucks and buses will run without a driver.

    Good to see you mate. Loving the red truck. You are so right about north Queensland, I so love it up there, if I had my way, I would totally move there. If you are ever in Cairns, my brother has a bakery there, great coffee and top notch food. It's called "Baked on Red Hill" in Woree.

  • @engineerv8696
    @engineerv8696 ปีที่แล้ว

    When I worked for TMR in Emerald, I managed a project to rehab that section of highway near Rolleston to improve grip for trucks. There is a particularly steep area that was always flushing up and the trucks would lose traction on it all the time and have to roll back to the bottom and try again.
