It’s like Mad Max and Snowrunner mixed all together 😅 Why do all trucks have full asphalt tires? A little bit of aggressive profile on that rubber would do some miracles.
Here in the USA you can buy used but good military truck tires at a couple hundred a tire. Hell, you can but a military 5 ton 6x6 and leave the road puller at the trail head...
@@Outback-Truckers No, but I have a Toyota LC 78 Australian version heavy duty and sometimes in Afrika we have problems like yours. But its not comparable like yours. Much luck for you and all these fantastic Trucks.
What I don't understand is why arn't they building up the road and cutting a ditch with the grader. If the road is lower than the surrounding ground in the wet it becomes a lake because it is the low spot. In the dry season a couple of hours with the grader or excavator would eliminate the bog and make a usable road.
I take it you haven’t been up in the outback with a 50 ton load and road tires. It’s all clay. Doesn’t matter if you build it up, it still turns to worse than ice. We have taken trips around bad tracks and gone through higher places in the bush and we got stuck and nearly lost our cars. Clay is great in the dry, but in the wet, it has no bottom. Just a bottomless load of snot.
@@sergsergo6581 This is the way it is in Australia. cost to much to fly it in and most stuff not possible to fly in. Up here its a whole different way of life. something definitely worth seeing. some times is can take months to get a part that you order due to road, rain and other conditions.
Unfortunately the cost of maintaining these roads is more than the communities they service pay in taxes. So they aren’t a major priority. Australias large area and scarce population means most Outback roads are crap.

Get a Scania V8 730 with the 4 axles setup, with some chains in the back or use proper tires and you are golden. How much horses are those old trucks putting out? Why not get a tatra truck? Thats a 6x6 with 6 wheel drive.
Full respect to the boys and girls up on those ice roads! Hard to imagine navigating those, but the outback is definitely something entirely different!
Why done they put some boggers or knobbies on the tractor for more grip, and rather some super thick balloon like tires on the trailers rather than duals? They act surprised when they try to pull all that weight through a 100 ft mud hole on worn street tires. If I knew that I’d be coming against those conditions, I’d try to equip the truck and trailers to be able to handle it as best as possible. Especially if the majority of their miles are on dirt. If someone could help me understand why they don’t, I’d appreciate it!
@@pSavage04 heavy vehicle laws here are very strict and they’re probably not allowed on any roads without the right tyres so even if they’re on dirt %90 of the time then the other %10 they’re illegal
Glad I am retired Professional Semi Driver. All you are Super Professional Road Train's. I personally could never do that. Thank you sharing. 🎉🎉❤🎉 From Ohio. My son is a professional semi driver. Tornado s and hurricanes aftermath East Coast here. Tornado Alley got worst this year.
Nah, it's a case of - wear boots/shoes and stand in a puddle, your feet and footwear are wet for days. Barefoot easy to dry and clean off. Plus if you walk around barefoot enough, your feet will get incredibly tough. As a teenager I never wore shoes outside of school and could walk around central QLD barefoot in summer including bitumen roads. Bindi's and prickles etc couldn't penetrate my feet. Walked on broken glass and didn't get cut etc. These days I work in boots 12+ hours most days (required) and I step on a small stone and it hurts and prickles stick in my feet.
While most people say that they needed AWD truck and off road tires which I would agree, but there's a lot more factors here. One being money as AWD trucks are more expensive and have more moving parts and then you have maintenance ( though if it's a disengageable front axle you don't need to drive in 6x6 mode all the time). Well, off road tires, we don't know how long their trips are and how much % of that is tarmac and dirt, but everything comes down to cost and reliability. Super single tires perform better off road than dual tires but you risk having a flat tire and you don't want that out in the middle of nowhere. In the end, the better solution is to have a better road maintenance, mark the spots where water gathers and make a sink.
Well said! So many factors to consider when choosing a truck, and the roads in Aus are very different depending where you are, you just gotta prepared as best you can before each trip
why do they use normal road trucks when they know that they are going to go through this shit all the time, atleast give it mud tires and all wheel dirve! but even better, just use a tug made for this, for example a maz 537
@@yourlocalrussiankid9162 Changing 12 tires to mud tires maybe ok in other countries but not here. I'm pretty sure a trucky is not going to waste over 2 hrs of his time and they don't have AU$10.000 spare nor the space to carry them
It’s not that easy. We have people miles away from any where. To make a road will cost billions of dollars and will only help 400 people, then you will have to spend the same to make a road to the next town of 200 people . We learn to accept that things take time to deliver and are also happy to help out to get the load in.
I’m honestly surprised considering they see so much dirt and mud why they don’t run more aggressive drive tires, maybe some chains worse comes down to it
Come out and have a look at our roads....going from the coast to centre is like driving to mars lol...and majority of time the closest man made thing is satellites going overhead
I always wonded how is profitable to supply these remote areas with few people. Is this government sponsored transport? Delivery costs must be very high. Fuel, manhours, maintenance,...
It costs millions of dollars to repair these roads every year after the wet season. Authorities should have them closed at these times. It's insane that tax payers have to foot the bill for this.
Which times would that be? The rain times and volume of rain don’t give people a heads up weeks in advance. Dirt roads always need maintenance anyways especially with all the heavy equipment needed to be moved around. It costs much more money to lay bitumen everywhere. We could afford that though if we taxed the multinationals the way we tax the average punter.

I've come to the conclusion that most Australian people don't like wearing shoes. Especially in the outback.
The ranking is:
- Barefoot
- Thongs
- Bugger anything else 😆
