ETS2 - Off-roading in style: Scania Paradiso G7 1800 DD out on the trails

Well, here's the answer to the burning question "Can you off-road in a huge 8x2 double-decker luxury coach?"

In this video I drive the amazing Scania Paradiso G7 1800 15M DD coach along the twistiest, turniest, bumpiest, rock-strewn and partly flooded coastal trail in the Utopia standalone map for SCS Software's Euro Truck Simulator 2.

Tips on tyre choice, choosing the right gearbox, how to make best use of different camera views, and how to clean up after the passengers probably lose their collective breakfasts - all these and more are offered along the way!

It's mostly scratch-free, too, which is amazing given the size of The Big Bus...
