One thing I like about New Zealand trucking companies is that they take pride in their Trucks, they're all painted up in lovely colors and stripes with chrome wheels and accessories, unlike in America where most the trucks are just painted white with company's names just stuck onto the doors and sometimes the trailer.
@Dee T it’s just your opinion bro so I respectfully say that can you add like in my opinion other wise you probably have a conflict about your comment going on here!
I’m from Aotearoa, now living in Australia, best trucking company with the nicest fleet of trucks I’ve seen is here in Australia. They used to have a show here on a channel called 7mate, forgot name of company, but the boss name was John Kelly. The show might’ve been called Heavy Haulage Australia, actually I think that was the company name too. EVERY truck was AWESOME
I used to cart cement out from down that area in the early 1970's. The silo's were owned by Golden Bay Cement at that time. We had a couple of twin stick Leyland Comet's and two axle dog trailers, a single tank TK Bedford rigid that I drove and an 8 wheel Scammel rigid with gate manual transmission and no power steering. The Scammel was later replaced with a single drive 1418 Merc and bogie trailer. The regular driver thought he'd died and gone to heaven when that happened.
If you love collecting trucks, New Zealand is for you. There are Japanese, European, and American trucks in New Zealand. I wouldn’t surprise if they have Kamaz and Tatra here too
When we get rid of this stupid anti-Russian hysteria that is gripping (primarily the 'Anglo-West'), we're gonna see Kamaz and Ural downunder. Many NZ companies, already operate Chinese heavy trucks made by Sinotruck, FAW Jiefang, Foton and JAC. Operators say, they meet and exceed the standards of existing European and Japanese heavy haulers. This is gonna be an important consideration because, European 'de-Industrialization', seems hell-bent on destroying European manufacturing. Tatra by the way, is from the Czech Republic.
Between trucks and trains, I have to admit that this became a true audiovisual festival for fans of both the Big Rigs and the railways. But the list of things that caught my attention throughout the video with its corresponding minute, respectively, is also a festival. 1:36: What is Jandal? Because the truck was passed very fast? 5:12: Since when do Volvo trucks, in any model, equip a V8 engine? And then we say about the Scania V8 trucks. 8:13: What are those vertical rods that some trucks carry? 11:06: What was that? The truck touching the gauge? 11:14: For the previous video. Is it really very rare to see a MAN truck (both military and normal) in New Zealand? 12:52: Fresh from the factory? Because since he doesn't have anything mounted on the back... 13:43: I remember seeing videos of the Waste Management Company... But from the US plant. From the New Zealand plant... First, I knew something about the Waste Management Company; Second, I was unaware that they had a branch in New Zealand; Third, those of Waste Management in the US are green. 14:22: I knew that, at some point in this video, you would capture the tractor of the railway terminal, since several have been seen throughout the video. 15:22: Oh yes! I thought the left-front fender mirror was only used on cars, but I didn't expect that, even with extended mirrors, they would also carry a second, but smaller, mirror on the left side. It's the host. And it is only seen in JDM vehicles, both sports and, until now (I had no idea of its use in commercial vehicles), in trucks. 16:28: but what...? But what manufacturer is this? Isuzu? Because neither the manufacturer's logo nor the letters are shown. 16:50: You heard something else, right? Because you only see the train cars maneuvering... 18:31: I already said that you had the instinct to capture the train. P.S. I just realized that the logo of Waste Management New Zealand is very different from that of Waste Management Inc. in the USA, since, at first, it looked quite similar to the logo. But I realized that the font was different from the American one.
One thing thats unique about New Zealand and Australia is they have truck and trailers from all over. I think it's cool! It's just a matter of time that you will see more makes and models in the US, Canada and Mexico. Will Tesla sell his electric trucks down there?
Mexico and Brazil have got a head start on the US. They've been operating 'B-trains' (Prime-mover + 2 semi-trailers) and 'Truck and trailers' in quantity for years. Even seen 'Road trains' ( 3 trailers +) in Brazil hauling sugar cane on private roads.
I dun get it, why do yall's trailers often have 3 or more axles on them? Here in the U.S. even a 53 foot trailer is rarely to have more than 2 axles. Also awesome video of both trucks and trains! Really love it, have subscribed now!
I couldn't give a definite answer, but I'd assume partly why we have extra axles is due to restrictions around the maximum weight allowed per axel. Here in NZ we seem to have much more strict regulations compared to other countries. I'm sure there's other reasons as well.
@@dallasfrost1996 Understandable, also as I have watched more and more trucking videos from New Zealand Trucks and other youtubers, it seems the set ups yall have work better considering the restrictions of physical conditions of your roadways. Less land, tighter turns, more travel up and down inclines. The set up of a cab-over truck and a trailer with a lot of axles, seems better suited for your region of shorter distances, tighter turns, and more mountains.
@@AC_WILDCARD Yeah, everything you've said makes complete sense. Our roads are much more of a task to navigate for larger rigs, especially through our mountains/hills. Most of our roads are quite narrow and rather curvy in comparison to the much straighter and wider roads you have in the States. That also explains why most our trucks are also twin steer too. I believe an additional reason for the amount of wheels/axels has to do with reducing the amount of damage done to our roads, by distributing the weight more. Not sure what your maximum weight is, but quite a few of our rigs haul up to 50 tons, some even near 60 If I remember correctly.
The Australian and New Zealand trucks are soo similar in trucks in Japan. they're beautiful and lovely design. unlike trucks in America not much design. mostly stock accessories and white.
@@TransportSimulatorNationTSN well if there's a truck has customized mostly not use in work. or only appear on truck show or in a truck drag race etc. not common see on the streets or highways
Yeah but, they're still only prime-movers with fancy sleeper cabs hauling a semi-trailer loaded with 37 tonne max, behind an overpowered 600hp + Cummins or Detroit.
That is a Kenworth T409, this model is only found in New Zealand & Australia. They were built in Australia and could be spec'd out with either single or twin steer configurations from the factory.
We have lots of sharp winding mountainous roads in N.Z, twin steers help trucks navigate these corners better. The extra steer axel also improves weight distribution, we have extra axels on our trucks & trailers to help keep our poor quality roads in better condition for longer (our roads are asphalt without a concrete base).

I'd say half, not most
ui
are new zealand truckers getting paid as much as american truckers is the question ? if not F cosmetics respectfully
@@Goku_Kiyosaki Depends what you're driving. But I know some drivers here (NZ) earning $100k plus

Your are the stupiest people I have seen
Waste management N.Z. Australia, Europe, Nth America, are the same company ...
The parent company is Igneo ...
That looks like quite a sharp curve, are there issues with Trucks overturning / falling over

the truck is strong
About that Kenworth at 1:23, what model is that? I've never seen a twin steer model like that, usually its a specialty use model, not a OTR model.
That is a Kenworth T409, this model is only found in New Zealand & Australia. They were built in Australia and could be spec'd out with either single or twin steer configurations from the factory.
good truck
Why is there an extra axle between the steer and drive tires????

Why kiwi truckers love double steering axles so much? More grip on mountain roads?
More axles more weight =)
@@newzealandtrucks No.
@@Maloy7800 whats a answer then smart guy
@@newzealandtrucks If I knew I wouldn't be asking. More weight would go to the read dolly, not front wheels.
