hello how are you doing

Incredible variety of models, North American and European trucks together

Does anyone remember the Pie in the Sky Cafe that used to be at the Summit.? Lovely Woodburner going in winter.Had Dutch relatives stay and we said we were just going over "the Hill" to Welly, and they nearly freaked out going over the Remutakas!

Ahh the whistling of turbochargers and hammering of Jacob's brakes - awesome.

Trucks seems beautiful than the lighter vehicles in this video.. Splendid color combinations.. what a scenic route to drive these beasts...

Chur bro brings back a lot of memories driving the ranges needed all my skills when windy lol

i love the sound of straight piped trucks! great video, thanks.

So proud to see my daughter driving her western star over the hill. Great video, thanks for sharing.

That brings back memories. My first job in 1967 was working for Hygienic Laundry who were situated at Gracefield, just under the Wainui hill; I drove a Leyland 15 van delivering rental towels and sheets to hotels etc. On Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays I would work my way up to Masterton, leaving about 0800 and not getting back until late afternoon. Some of the weather conditions I struck going over that range were absolutely atrocious and as I always drove like a dickhead (as most young blokes do) I still wonder how I made it through those times without coming to grief. 🙂

Top notch!! 👍👌

Had to look twice at 7:55 ,where i spotted Alucar's cab cover,greetings from Finland !

I learned a lot from this video. Excellent content!

New Zealand imports a lot of old trucks and buses from Australia and Japan. This is why you see a lot of old cabs and styles. Also because we take cabovers and refit them with new engines. Some of the trailers are old but the tractor unit are new. Sometimes they continue to use older trailers because of the loading limits that only restrict newer trailers etc. We also love American and Japanese trucks for their simplicity and comfort. So we never gave up using them, enough demand also allows for cabover kenworths and Peterbilts to have continued manufacturing and assembly in NZ and Aus.

In N.Z. if you develop a "tail", you have to pull over after a while and let them pass: or you get a ticket and fine. Note also that the trucks and trailers have lots of axles and dual tyres: they can pay less road tax if they are "road friendly"; the payoff is a much lower accident rate. Also, high power engines mean that even heavy rigs go pretty fast, sometimes scary fast!

Is that some kinda passing line on 03:06 interesting? So the slower trucks give the faster vehicles space to pass I guess. In my country they pass each other on a two way highroad whit 80 and 81 speed... you can gues how fast that goes and the traffic behind it.
