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.
I drove down to Arizona once, and a dude asked me if my truck was a hybrid because of the "extension cord" sticking out of the grill. When I explained that in Edmonton, it routinely gets down to -40F he looked at me like I was an alien.
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 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.
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.
I think you are a bit mistaken on the strength of these tires...😂 The wheels have run-flat inserts around the shell. That insert is what allows you to drive up to 50 (or 100, depends) miles after losing a tire.
Usually a heavy truck have only side mirrors. There is supposed to be a load behind your back. Standard today seems to be cameras in every corner. Still backing up a trailer is common practice.
Yea the owner is a nice guy he lives right by my work so I see him every now and then and he said he just has them for fun doesn’t care if it breaks down cuz he has the money to get it back up lol
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.
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
Yes, with the “standard” 6x6 wheels, but these wheels are aftermarket from Brabus and it seems that Brabus has not routed a air pressure line through the wheel hub to the tire bed. At 19:06 you can see that there is a normal “valve” sticking out of the tire. So James was right that the switches don’t actually work at the moment
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
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.

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.
Dont even think those tires should be on there highly unnecessary but yep i see exactly what you talking bout none the less aint my money as long as the owner enjoys it cause ill probably put slightly smaller tires
@@alexamayeobu9460 The only problem I see is that piece of crap is road legal, and someday it will loose a tyre that will hit someone and kill that poor soul. Those things they should be at least well engineered
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🤣
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.
4:11 Of course Button1 is for the center diffs, one in the transfer case splits 30-70, and one for the rear axles, actually located on the middle axle that splits 40-30. The power split is for the unlocked state, if locked the split can be from almost 0 to almost 100%. Button 2 is for the rear axles, locks both diffs Button 3 for the front axle. This order is fixed, they cannot be locked in other ways than 1,2,3
Idk brabus just takes the most expensive materials and plasters it all over the car resulting in an absolutely sh*t looking car and then they can’t even get their signs and labels straight.
It is not. The switches for inflating and deflating the tires are located at the top of the windshield near the windshield mirror. The switches he talked about is for changing differential or for switching to different off-road driving modes
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 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 UA-cam 😄

16:20 The Switches allow to change between the two different fuel Tanks the Brabus has. Whereas the arrowed Buttons allow to deflate and inflate the tires in order to have more traction on different surfaces.
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.
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.
Button 1 locks the differential between the the axels (front and rear 50/50) and the others locks the differential on the axels (left and right 50/50). Standard g wagon controls.
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?
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.
Ya habia visto este video y es una buena comparación entre un vehículo que salió hace rato y las imitaciones. Sea como sea que modifquen una camioneta con todas las mejoras posibles; la G Wagon seguirá siendo la mejor y primera 6x6.
"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
The rear locker button locks both rear axles, eliminating the need for another button. I think there would be 2 center diffs as well, again just needing one button. Then you have your front locker button lol. 5 lockers, 3 buttons 😁 I just guessed here, but it is kinda obvious lol
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.

Simple really....the camera crew guide you.........😑
Simple lol he learnt in England
@@armoris66 it has no backup camera genius
@@wf2784 You may in fact be the genius...
@@wf2784 what do windows usually taste like?
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?
I like Brabus but this Raptor is really looking dope & a big boy!
Literally 2 showboats of a vehicle these giants. But you can't deny they definitely have massive road presence. Lol!😆👍
17:01 "There are so many men involved in this" 😂😂😂 died laughing 😂🤣👍
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.
Ya habia visto este video y es una buena comparación entre un vehículo que salió hace rato y las imitaciones. Sea como sea que modifquen una camioneta con todas las mejoras posibles; la G Wagon seguirá siendo la mejor y primera 6x6.
"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
Another incredible video! The team at Throttle House continues to hit it out of the park
3:36 lol the size comparison 😂😂
That G 6x6 is unstoppable. Be ideal for the camp-hunt trip. Put a small quad and a couple of deer on the back.
Have you seen them go on the dunes? ❤
I don't care what they say, I want that mega raptor.
Cruisin around town knowing how stupid it looks to do so would also be the first thing I’d do with these trucks 🤣
The irony of the wind turbine reflexing off James' Mega Raptor at the end of the drag race... 🤣🤣🤣🤟✌️
The rear locker button locks both rear axles, eliminating the need for another button. I think there would be 2 center diffs as well, again just needing one button. Then you have your front locker button lol. 5 lockers, 3 buttons 😁
I just guessed here, but it is kinda obvious lol
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.
As someone from the city who left, stop voting for the people who killed mini trucks. You just can't build those small trucks, nor low beds anymore, because city folk are hysterically ignorant.
"Well, my windows work..... soooo" 🤣🤣 James wins the internet! Lol
Keep grinding guys♥️💪
Love from Nigeria 🇳🇬🇳🇬
OMG Oh cherrio , that petrol is smashing
As a guy who has built 35 plus 6x6 conversions. They used a rockwell with ouverson engineering gears thats the screaming gears
It took a 6x6 mega raptor to make a 6x6 G wagon seem even the slightest bit "normal". LoL!!!
