Aye, with 4 mattracks. It'd be insane . . . . Well, more insane. A spectacular machine for sure 👌

Damn! I didn't realize it was 50 mins.. That's what happens with quality content

unimog!

Done a great neck workout there 🤙🏻

Alan Livingston And a 20c stick to hold up the pop up tent...

Whoah, c’mon now, he looked like he put rubber chair feet on either end of that bad boy. That has to have cost at least $1.00 so to not damage the $10k pneumatic poptop.

lmao, i thought i was the only one that noticed that. Truck is insane.

It did have duct tape on the ends though

Just got my channel started where I take trucks to the mountains and bag on em. Just wanna make some folks laugh.

It's sick AF

True

You've never watched porn then.

The guy has the personality of a potato tho...

@ Bush Truck Thanks mate I’ll subscribe to your channel.

So long as he doesn't run the engine for months on end---700km range won't last too long...

Maybe solar panels don´t work, for real, outside subtropic areas!!!!!

@@rolfbremberg5846 Nah, solar all through Germany and England. Not quite as much power per panel, but still fine

Tatra run fully Independant torque tube spined suspension. Crazy stuff

I have no idea what this means but it sounds like I want it.

All Dakar trucks favor them.

@@Devourer221 Or Puch Pinzgauer (the same man behind)

@@Devourer221 exactly, Tatra was making backbone independent suspension all in tubes since 1923, but obviously swing axles weren't good for tire wear

I thought he sounded like a yank....I'm a yank lol

Maitre Mark I’ll let that one slide, you can have that ..... just 😆👍

@Maitre Mark No mate it's a 4by

💯 agree a ute is a ute

He's got a crane at the back to lift it up and down, it's the same one he uses to load his bikes.

@@kazykamakaze131 either you misread my comment or missed something from the video. But anyways it was a joke about him welding his rim instead of changing his spare out...

@@will4real58 There is no "misread" nor misunderstood as you said very little, this is why I pointed out the crane at the back. No one can read your mind and can only read the information that is provided.

It's in the video, he said the only time he really used the welder was to weld the rim, so he took the extra time to weld the rim instead of just using the spare, which is what I jokingly lined out, didn't think I'd have to spell it out. Lol usually indicates a joke

@@will4real58 I never said he didn't say that, again read what is being said as I am questioning your reading capability now. Have you ever thought that your comment could have been taken in a different tone of humor or does your intelligence only stretch in one dimension? Do you not understand that since there is no emotions portrayed in comments that there is multiple ways then to read a comment?

Sure...We could do this same rig in a weekend with a case of beer and only cost $ 5,000.00....

@@freedomrider266 Seriously... U can not believe he said 'budget', as if this is a simple rig. There is a thoughtful variety of practicality in this rig, in place of comfort, that there is not many like it.

@@freedomrider266 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Glad to see they made it all the way to opposite side of the globe! Greetings from CZ too!

As Tatra is from where this wehicle got some ideas

@@altergreenhorn I doubt that really. Unimog's performance is based on extremely flexible frame while Tatra trucks are just the opposite, even back in the days when those were the similar weight range as the Unimog (Tatra 805)

@ Exactly, Tatra chasis is absolutely not flexing or stretching, thanks independent axles and central pipe

And the Unimog comes from Germany and has been built by Mercedes since 1950. Greetings from Canada.

The showed a clip of him backing it into his “shop” which was a commercial sized enormous storage shop ;..I paused and. Noticed not only the new KTM 690 on the back of the rig but the amount of toys and equipment in thst shop!!?? 😳 yeah he does well.

😆

Beep beep.

I’m sure he pumps the psi up for that trip. 300 outta do’er.

On the upside, you can easily just tow another vehicle as a spare. Or a house, and just decide you want to live wherever you get into trouble. I used to live in New Guinea, and there's a story there of trying to connect two villages by road. The problem was that one of the villages was full of folks who had never seen a Jeep. Each village started cutting a track towards the other, with the distant one using only a description of a Jeep, and a description of the kind of track it used. The end result was a trail with each wheel line taking different paths. Sometimes one wheel track was twenty feet higher than the other. Sometimes a little further apart. Now the story goes that they solved the problem by just cutting two poles and carrying a Jeep to the next village to drive it around for a bit so everyone could see what they were dealing with. But I'm an Australian, and any story like that can be taken with a grain of salt but I always wonder why people don't consider pulling things apart and moving them in more manageable chunks when they become inconsolably stuck. But then, I'm an Australian, so that might be bullshit as well :)

@@craigkirby9202 very nicely put :)

Hoovestol I think 6k inverter is a bit much but hey if you have $ and want it......

He says it’s to run his stick welder but there are far better and cheaper options in my opinion , like Ready Welder ( this would/will be my choice) or Premier Power Welder.....

@@1966cambo I think the street-legal tractor tires are my favorite part.

Hoovestol I hear ya! A lot of mog guys run ag tires, I am not sure how they wear on road though....would be interested to know.

@@1966cambo Not ware much at such low speeds

1300L 129HP, 1700L - 166HP.

Sort but this is incorrect. There’s a lot of differences between a U1300 and U1700

@@unidanengineering Good to know, but are you talking 435 U1700 or 437 U1700?

A U1500 and U1700 are similar and older agricultural versions. The U1300L and U1700L are off road chassis. Also older but the U1300L is a 7.5T normally with 6 bolt axles and the U1700L is about 11t with 10 bolt axles. Sooooo many different versions. His engines basically changes his model to a U1550L37-240. The OM 366 LA is actually a 5.9L turbo intercooled engine which for fire service had up to 240hp and about 660lbft but tuning can get a bit more. First gear is 13:1 and low range is 5.76:1. Axle is probably 5.31:1 but could be 6.53 also.

U 1700 is by far and away the most common in Oz cos the Oz Army is offloading nearly their entire fleet of some 1800 vehicles and there weren't many Mogs in Oz on the road before these auctions.

No problem mate thanks for the feedback 👍

That's why as soon as I got my Mog I changed out the tyres to Michelins with the Hutcheson run flats with bead locks. I am rather jealous of the CTIS and tractor tyres though. Best thing I ever did was add the low range box. 8 speeds below about second gear.

@@philbox4566 the overdrive option would be handy to I imagine, giving u a little more topend fort he highway... Would these trucks do over 100...?? I imagine the portals wouldn't like it...?? Cheers for any info

@@jesusiskingamen1026 With overdrive and fast axles you can get them to do over 100.

@@philbox4566 would it be worth it do u think or asking for trouble with the portals overheating...??

@@jesusiskingamen1026 Portals can handle it. Just have to make sure that the correct oil is used and the levels are always topped up. Keep the moisture out of the portals and you'll be fine. Mind you, the portals are pressurised so that's a plus when going deep through the water. Reminds me, I have to raise those breathers of mine.

😆😆👍

Id pay 300k for it if i had the need.

Its forsalw on gumtree for 350 thousand

@@jarradmaate7883 If i had the need right now id sell the house and travel, in the future maybe, but its good to see other options apart from landcruisers/patrol and caravans.

Its for sale for 350k on unidans website

Yeah thats the way mate. Id do it on the future forsure. Ill stick to the patrol now

it is absolutely necessary to have.

@@juniorarcher no shit right

you could not possibly be more wrong, bud - i've never seen anything more necessary in my entire life.

Not too bad, if does have a crane on the rear for loading/lifting the motorcycles onto the carrier.

Has a winch front and back, you can pull it up or rig it to a tree with the winch.

@@willtricks9432 And when you're nowhere near a tree?

I assume he'd use the crane we saw on the back...

@@koitorob Pull it up on to the winch.
