Post Description

In their penultimate challenge, the six remaining truckers tackle the highways and byways of India, delivering potatoes along some of the most congested roads in the world. 

The truckers find themselves in a market square in the city of Kanpur in India. Their task is to load and transport 200 50kg sacks of potatoes from a wholesaler in the market to a vendor in the tiny and remote village of Lauri, over 250 miles away. The road they will travel is wild and winding, twisting its way through some of the poorest parts of India. They will encounter all sorts of life on the road and whatever they do they must not kill a sacred cow!

The guys will be driving in pairs with each couple given a Tata 1616. These popular but basic wagons are ubiquitous in India and every inch of the cab and trailer is decorated. None of the drivers have ever experienced driving in India before: roads where over-laden tuk-tuks battle against buses on hair-raising schedules with animals and people all trying to get to their destination. 

Which truckers survive the the traffic, terrain and temperature to successfully negotiate through the hoards and make it to the final?
