  • Let me take you on a Full Tour & Test Drive of this 2016 MAN TGM 18.250 (Euro 6) with 1,750 Nm. I will also show you how to operate the Zepro tail-lift, which is very easy to use and conveniently tucks under the body at the rear.
    Thanks for watching, Stavros

    Stavros doing a great show of MPG on a "full load of glider engines".
    Loves you stavros full week driving and then these fantastic Videos filmed at the weekends and sent out for our viewing pleasure on a Sunday morning.
    You are... "Simply the best Vehicle video maker, in my eyes with the outstanding knowledge of all the differing vehicle's you film".
    Stavros you make my Sundays, it's been a while since i last told you this, thank you.

    No night heater is a mistake by the "cheap charlie" owner.It doedn't matter if the driver does not use the bunk for nights out. A night heater can be used to warm up the cab and de-frost the windows in the winter and keep the driver warm if he has to wait to unload and also if he gets stuck in the winter in a traffic jam or snow conditions.

      Yeah, on cold winter mornings at 5am a night heater can get you out the door and driving a lot faster. These big diesel engines take so long to warm up at idle that'll be waiting a fair while for it to defrost on its own

    Drive a 2019 tgm 18.250 flatbed. Gearbox can be slow to downshift when taking off at roundabouts and junctions. Other then that it’s a great truck.

    The longer wing mirror mountings are due to the rigid body (curtain sider) is wider than the cab so the mirrors are more extended than the tractor unit to compensate for extra width

    Tidy and very practical machine! Would those mounting points have anything to do with flex? The springs seem to be a damper maybe? Interesting non the less!

  • @stevenfraser2640
    @stevenfraser2640 4 роки тому +5

    Great video I’ve never liked the man truck I drove one for 2 years. The dash layout is wrong and the bed is uncomfortable and when you’re getting out of bed in the morning you always sat on your bollocks because of that bit that pulls up to stop you falling out of bed. It was one of the worst trucks I’ve ever driven in my driving career. It’s not a bad looking truck but needs some real updates especially the dashboard we’re it needs to be rapped around you like other trucks so you’re not stretching to get to things and taking your eyes off the road. 👍👍👍👍👍

    Hate these semi auto boxes, I haven't driven a Hgv for about 7 years, the fun has gone out of it, can't beat an 8 speed manual 4 over 4 in a rigid, good progress can be made. From what I gather its pretty impossible to buy a modern truck with a manual box.

    It's interesting that you guys don't have air on your front axels. Here in Norway I've driven one ridgid without, and thats very rare. I've never seen or driven a semi without air on every axle. We have more than 40 scania ridgids and trailers in our fleet and every axle is on air.

    Fitzgerald bodies, I never liked them. They'd rot and rust far quicker than the equivalent Quinn body. Always preferred a Quinn body on our Connacht Court Group trucks back in the day. Always preferred the Atego too :)

    I drive a TGM 26, they're good trucks but the gearbox in these things make me want to rip my hair out. They're in a constant state of having an identity crisis, they forget they're supposed to change gears

    the MAN cooler boxes are useless, the heat from the engine comes through the floor and into the box effectively cooking whatever you have in it
