Ok so for the uphill dirt test there are some things that SCS needs to work on. There will be a big difference between an empty trailer and a loaded trailer. It all has something to do with axle weights. An 8x6 with an empty trailer will perform worse than a 4x2 with an empty trailer because there is less weight in each axle, if one axle starts slipping on the 8x6, the rest will follow because its losing momentum. Load it up and the 8x6 can use all his axles in the right way because there's more pressure on each axle. This is one of the many reasons a lot of company's have liftable axles.

But the 4x2 will experience a torque around the powered axle because of the trailer drag. The 6x4 with diff lock will have its rear axle pushed hard into the ground. Am I wrong? Also, liftable axis aren't powered.

@21babydew

@@herzglass yes liftable axles are not powered however due to the location of the 5th wheel which can be adjusted on some trucks if neccessary the 5th wheel is typically almost perfectly in the middle of the drive axles or in the tri axle right on the middle axle / slightly forward to keep weight on the front steer axle which results in almost equal weights on both axles especially in trucks with walking beam suspension and other such heavy duty suspensions which pivot both axles equally unlike air bags in which they float independitly. so on a airbag truck which would never see this type of situation yes the rear axle could see more weight but in a heavy duty truck like a dump truck or heavy haul truck no the weight would be near equal on both drive axles.

I also really wish they would simulate chassis twist better. The Cascadia in real life has huge amounts of torque twist in lower gears. The Kenworth's I've driven felt a bit more stable with less body roll. But the trucks are definitely too rigid in ATS and ETS. Accelerating at wide open throttle in the game you should see the cab rocking back and forth more between shifting, at least in the lower gears when you're getting the most torque.

In ETS 2 1.4 we can see 4x2 truck jumping when tries to pull 25+ tons by flat road. Contact area is too small for this task. In this video we can see the same: 8x6 has triple contact area + 4 tons extra weight, 6x4 has double contact area + 2 tons extra weight, 4x2 has smallest contact area, length and weight.

Would be interesting to see if the new "Heavy Duty" tires make any difference.

The empty trailer is only for better contact with surface. 650 HP / 8 tons = 81.25 HP per ton. Usual car have 100 HP / 1 ton = 100 HP per ton. A truck accelerates and decelerates slower usually.

1:30 I think this gate is taken from an older SCS game called Trucks&Trailers.

Great video here

Cool video.... would be interesting to see stopping potential, and maybe a "moose" test (quick manure test with a higher centre of gravity, and heavy load to see which is more likely to tip over)

awesome. thx

That moment, when a truck does a 0-60 sprint faster than your car

with the new 8x4 midlift, you get quite a bit of most worlds except shorter turn radius it allows me to get 6 MPG on a 300 gallon tank with heavy hauling as a lucrative option and run almost all loads on just one tank of fuel. coos bay to fort worth is the only one that requires a refuel right now and getting this amazing 1800 mile range is legendary.

Good job 👌

I understand why there was another truck for the 4x2 test but the automatic transmission really sucks for uphill testing 😂.

Would be nice to do a turning radius video with the HCT Trailer versions in ETS 2.

in the traction test 8x6 didnt have enough torque so it could go even further :) id like to see some cornering tests between these trucks

NIce testing

Nice videos man! By the way, I don't like the way the engines sounds, so what are the best mods for sound?

i like the ideal of this test and the map is great however i might want to make 1 suggestion.... try using the same truck manufacturer like mack they have all 3 chassis on one truck and would be a better teset since the first truck you have is definatley light then the w900 is so me personally i cant look at that as a propper test, Other wise i think the video is pretty cool!

Perfect 🤩

Should’ve had diff lock on the dirt traction test

Nice

nice video

i like all of them

in that last test say goodbye to the clutch

nice little video, only problem is runnin a 7spd pickup transmission, you'd get better stats with an 18 speed using the granny gears

It would be more interesting testing a truck which has all chassis options and something along the line of 400-500 bhp. To my mind comes the Mack Anthem which I believe has all chassis options.

Yes you did it! Kenworth w900!😄😄😄😲😲

SCS, the best truck simulators!

Tarmac hill test looks right. The only difference was truck mass vs distance. Coefficient of friction doesn’t care about the number of wheels. - Turning circle is a lot less simple. With 10 ton per rear axel the 4x2 will be the same radius all the time. The 6x4 will really try to go in a strait line and the Oshkosh tri-drive is so bad it is 8x8x4 with a rear steer axel. - As a side note a double drive with a lot of weight behind it up a steep incline will lift the front axel of the road and then it doesn’t steer at all :o)

Good video but I still don't know if I like the tradeoff between my 8x6's monster traction vs the maneuverability of a 6x4 =/ The 8x6 has made me have to give up on a few parking jobs, because I just am not skilled enough to really weasel it into extremely tight situations (at least in so far as the stock game has to offer).

Played for years. Should not like it. But... I love this game. This vid made me love it more... no idea why, on both counts 🤣

It doesn't work to have 3 axles pulling if the weight is divided between them, you need to have weight on them to make a difference, the weight makes pulling better

Now we just need a testing map for ets2 that works with the new 1.40 update...

Where the differentials locked on the 6x4 chassis?

The more wheels, the less weight per axle. 4x2 is best if you don't really carry loads.

The traction test was not traction but power. If you used a proper transmission you would have gone further with all of them.
