Craziest thing in the whole video is that one guy owns both. Absolutely insane. What else does the guy have, a CLK GTR?

What's even more insane and over the top than one of these behemoths? Owning two of course.

I'll take the Brabus any day of the week. Its approach, departure, and breakover angles are ACTUALLY insane. Offroad, it's INCREDIBLY bulletproof.

The power cord dangling underneath brings back memories. When I moved to BC from Alberta, I took my ‘95 Mustang into the shop for a tune up. When I got it back, the service manager says “Umm. Do you know you’ve got an extension cord wrapped up in your engine? We tried to pull it out, but it’s in there good!” 🤷‍♂️ None of them had ever heard of a block heater. Explaining what it’s for was like explaining dark magic to a Muggle.

310'000 USD invested and the interior still looks like in a 10'000 USD Dacia Duster

I think the fact alone of having 6 5k dollar, 600 lb, military strength tires to survive gunshots and land mines, and STILL having a spare on the back that blocks all visibility just to look cool automatically wins any stupid contest.

You guys made that lifted Silverado look like a mazda B2000 when you drove by it 🤣

Some of those switches are for deflating and reflating the tyres when you go off road and come back on road.

glad these videos exist. makes me appreciate the “luxury” of being able to close my windows or not have driveline shake on the highway in my average cost, normal person car.

I know you've heard it a million times before, but you guys are seriously the next Top Gear, love this channel! You've come so far from Thomas teaching how to drift years ago

I remember driving a dually f-350 and f-550 and I was always told if the mirrors fit the rear will need to be straight when you go through. If the mirrors fit the ass end will if it’s inline with the fence posts. With the wider tires you should extend the mirrors all the way out to make sure the read fits properly.

The differential lock switches from left to right are: 1. front differential. This locks only the front axle differential. 2. Interaxle differential(s). This one locks the transfer case differential (splits power between the front and rear axles) and might also lock the rear interaxle diff (splits power between the middle and rear axles). 3. Rear axles. This one locks both rear axle differentials, and may also lock the rear interaxle differential if that isn't already controlled by the middle switch. Imagine that the truck is held completely off the ground, but with some friction on all 6 tires, so that when you hit the gas, the wheels spin. Having the vehicle in 6x6 with all the lockers unlocked means that only one wheel out of six will spin, specifically whichever one has the least traction (actually, depending on how the transfer case is set up, you might get one front and one rear, but anyway) Locking the center interaxle diff means one of the four rear wheels and one front wheel will spin (again, whichever ones have the least resistance). Lock the rear interaxle differential and one wheel on each of the three axles will spin, and then lock the three axle differentials to get all six wheels turning at once.

Much props to the owner of the vehicles as he took alot jokes and broken parts to help you guys make a funny vid 😁👍

Crazy that the Raptor's tires weigh more than my car, even excluding the spare.

11:15, the way those retractable foot stairs on that Brabus moved was so cool, lol

You guys honestly make the best car reviews on KZfaq I’m so glad you guys keep going with this. Honestly better to watch then top gear at times.

The overhead switches in the Brabus are supposed to inflate/ deflate the tires for off roading

Throttle House is finally living up to its namesake and have tested a house with a throttle in it. Well done!!

“The mega raptor is a winner, it’s popular, with the shirtless folk!” 😆😆

every dude with a lifted truck , in the vicinity cried themselves to sleep that night..

Making a BRABUS 6x6 look like the modest option isn't an easy task. Well done mega monstrosity!

Incredible that these two amazing things exist! And the trucks are cool too.

No joke-- this is, to date, the most entertaining vid you guys have done!

Loved the grand tour/top gear format of taking

I'm surprised as to how a Brabus can look small standing next to another Passenger vehicle, on the road. Imagine calling a Hummer Agile.

The biggest surprise was that the same guy owns both of these things. Truly mind boggling

Oh my god that drag race is the funniest thing I`ve seen in a while 😂😂😂 " it`s making noises"

It's funny hearing James talk about the shudder from the driveline feeling unsettling lol. I drive transport trucks for a living so that driveline shudder when taking off and coming off throttle is normal to me I wouldn't have even noticed tbh🤣

300 thousand kilometers on the original F350 and then it gets made into that thing. It’s the automotive equivalent of living a long full life and then being taken by Pinhead and the cenobites when you die

Only thing the mega raptor needs is a train horn to be complete😂

This was very Top Gear ;) love it, more of this stuff!!

This channel helps me to relieve pain from not having the grand Tour anymore

At 12:15 The mega raptor had the rear suspension bolted directly to frame with a bolt 5x smaller than it should be. That thing was not built well for sure.

Love how you guys can borrow these cars from their owners who don’t care how much you’ll take the piss out of the cars, or their owner. That was fun guys!

... So this is what Podunk Canada looks like... on a more serious note- I love your channel and the episode. Thank you for bringing to us those Frankensteins :)

The switches on the top of headliner in the g wagon is used to toggle between the fuel tanks and for the air compressor.

The locking diffs in the 6x6 work as follows, there are 5 diffs, one for the transfer case, one for the front axle, one for the mid axle, one for the rear axle, and between the mid and rear axles. Button 1 is for the transfer case, like the normal G-wagon, splitting the power 50% to the front and 50% to the rear except the rear in the 6x6 has 2 axles, meaning that the mid and rear axles share 50% of the power. Button 2 locks the mid axle, rear axle and the diff between them. Button 3 locks the front diff like the normal G-wagon.

I couldn't imagine how big is the MegaRaptor until they stood beside it. 😄

Correct me if I’m wrong but I believe the “shudder” from the mega raptor is a traction control issue. The two rear all have power and the tires are massive, try turning traction control off and see if it still shudders.

Thanks for the Nice video guys. I have seen the g wagon do the most incredible off-road stunts that no factory offroader can attempt. Sorry to hear that it's used for show buzz. Keep such content coming guys.appreciate

That felt like watching two tectonic plates race each other

I love the Brabus looks insane, and if I recall correctly the switches in the cab are for the automatic inflating tires.

This channel is SO GOOD!

Both these trucks are badass...props to the owner

5 diff locks is easy: -The left button's drawing shows you it controls the front diff lock, and it has number 3 on it because that's the last one you should lock up after all else fails -Middle button's graphic shows you it's the centre lock, it has number 1 on it because that's the first one you should engage when the going gets rough -Right button shows you the rear locks, all 3 of them (one for each rear axle and one for the diff between the two rear axles), and it has number 2 on the button because that's the second diff lock you should engage if only the centre lock is not enough to keep you going

a giant thank you to the owner for sharing. While there were a lot of jokes. these must be a blast to drive. Thank you sir

Guys getting the old Top gear vibes from you, plus your doing a great job ✌🏼

This is not a feature, nor a review- it's just two friends having fun- that is why I love TH, most of the time its that way. Wish someday I come across you guys in Toronto.

A couple of things: 1st This is one of the greatest videos ever made 2nd Dare I say these vehicles suit you 3rd Please more videos like these 4th I wanna see a brake test like carwow does at the end of their videos Keep it up guys, you are truly the greatest car channel currently on KZfaq 😄

These guys would make a better top gear than American top gear

This is amazing. Kudos to the owner of these beasts. That Ford is what I would expect to show up towing a giant as$ speed boat at poker runs here in small town Ontario.

That evenly matched at the weight difference, thank you tourqe

On the list of "Things we shouldn't have done". That race was sketchy af

Why on earth would you put over 300k into a truck with 350k km on it😂😂

"Until James showed up in that thing" Just wait until someone takes the F-750 making it 6x6, put twin turbo, V12, 10L, and making it a 10.000hp ultimate beast

This is one of the few times I haven’t just skipped right to the race. I’d feel so insecure (and afraid) driving either of these trucks, but I also need to know what it was like because it was hilarious to watch.

The G is absolutely insane, and the value will always be there. Hard to choose the Raptor over it

Audibly said “what the fuck is that” when I saw the thumbnail. You guys are the best, please keep finding these unique, off the wall vehicles to review!

really impressive knowing the 6x6 raptor still more stable than brabus at high speed... despite its ridiculous tire...

Im so glad youtube suggested this to me

I salute James's driving skills😭🔥🔥🔥

This is a wonderful video. It shows that rural Canadians and rural Americans are just separated by latitude.

Honestly I was shaking my head most of this video too 😂

OMG Oh cherrio , that petrol is smashing

James can drive so well, it blows my mind. How he got that truck through that gate THAT CLOSE i will never understand

Love your videos, especially the humor and that canadian kindness. To me you're the new Top Gear 💪💪!

You guys are children that was the best video you’ve done pure comdey

21:03 "Damn" That was HILARIOUS to me 😭

James ... the axle in the middle is a Rockwell axle. Typically found on Deuce and a half trucks and VERY popular with the rock crawling crowd because they're bulletproof.

The yellow buttons are for deflating/inflating the tyres when you go dune surfing. It also has portal axles which give it a lot of ground clearance. All wheels are powered - not sure about the Ford there. I’ve seen the 6x6 in a nice matte titanium grey in London once.

I never thought I'd see Dollarama and Giant Tiger in a video. I need to watch more of these fellow Canucks hahaha

I'd like to invite u guys to Toruń in Poland. It would be hilarious to see u in the old town in those monsters. Great vid as always

Props to the owner of those vehicles for knowing exactly what they have.

It took a 6x6 mega raptor to make a 6x6 G wagon seem even the slightest bit "normal". LoL!!!

BROOOO Shout out to FORD! Bro that hugggee truck was pushing hardddd!!! lol

Literally 2 showboats of a vehicle these giants. But you can't deny they definitely have massive road presence. Lol!😆👍

That Brabus is definitely cross-eyed. Deal braker for me.

So happy that the owner agreed to this. Kudos to him. And great video

Hi huge big big up to both of you since the France 🇫🇷 and has the next video

well, the switches at the top(in the Brabus) is for the tire pressure. You can increase or decrease it while sitting down comfortably.

The overhead switches in the Brabus are for the tires. You can deflate and inflate them via the switches. Thanks for the videos as always, keep it up!

Best car channel ever. Love y’all 💙

Mega raptor looks like fancy mini tank crazy

Mega Raptor is badass! It needs a Jurassic World livery and all sorts of goodies, i'd take it to charities and youth events, they would LOVE to see a 6X6 Jurassic Raptor beast like this

3:36 lol the size comparison 😂😂

I love this channel! Thomas and James are the funniest car reviewers ever! Love the whole thing! 🤣👍🏼

the switches at the roof of the brabus are to release airpreassure from the tires when you need more grip offroad. once your on the street you can pump em up again(ofc with a switch)

I wish you would have included the Jeep Gladiator 6x6. But a great video!

Another incredible video! The team at Throttle House continues to hit it out of the park

5 locking diffs can be achieved with permutation combination with those 3 buttons.

Still love the opening of this one 😋

As someone who owns a Sierra 1500 in a city, I feel their pain on just getting around town. Can't imagine driving one of these beasts in a city. They should have tried to park in a parking garage.

I absolutely loved the “real world challenge” aspect of this video, felt super real, both in the fact that it was all built of real circumstances and events, and because of the more raw and agile camera angles that made the stakes feel higher and the experience more genuine and raw. Loved it so much! Y’all are the best, next top gear in my book.

Thank you guys for showing your audience cars for the regular person. It's good to get some of your guys's insight on these totally affordable vehicles.

I love how after 1 race both vehicles were in need of repairs

They should've got a Hennessey Velociraptor 6x6(which can be had with 1000hp), would've been a better comparison to the Brabus 6x6

On the standard G wagon the differential locks from left to right are: FRONT CENTRE REAR. They're numbered in the way that you're supposed to lock them in (center first...then rear....then front). Pretty sure there's something else about how you need to put it in neutral, then engage the low range gear box and then you can lock them. No idea how it works in the 6X6 though but my guess would be the center two lock together and rear two lock together?

Cruisin around town knowing how stupid it looks to do so would also be the first thing I’d do with these trucks 🤣

Was really hoping to see the Henne goliath but these 2 are crazy as well

I think they're cool ridiculous fun that talk to the inner kid in us.
