    If your truck got bogged in mud - who you callin to help you out?
  • @antonfloor344
    It’s like Mad Max and Snowrunner mixed all together 😅 Why do all trucks have full asphalt tires? A little bit of aggressive profile on that rubber would do some miracles.
  • @kerrryschultz2904
    What I don't understand is why arn't they building up the road and cutting a ditch with the grader. If the road is lower than the surrounding ground in the wet it becomes a lake because it is the low spot. In the dry season a couple of hours with the grader or excavator would eliminate the bog and make a usable road.

  • @DonFarmer-hq5sw
    Imagine what an actual train 🚂 track would do for this route 😊
  • @y2kxj
    I think they should order some good heavy duty ice/snow chains.. they work very well in mud too..
  • @zachwalker5085
    Chains? Hell even more aggressive tires. You should see the tires we run on trucks in the oil fields they have some lugs
  • @CowboyNC
    Always thought the ice roads up in Alaska were crazy but dealing with mud and wild animals that could eat ya I think takes the cake safe driving to ya

    While most people say that they needed AWD truck and off road tires which I would agree, but there's a lot more factors here. One being money as AWD trucks are more expensive and have more moving parts and then you have maintenance ( though if it's a disengageable front axle you don't need to drive in 6x6 mode all the time). Well, off road tires, we don't know how long their trips are and how much % of that is tarmac and dirt, but everything comes down to cost and reliability. Super single tires perform better off road than dual tires but you risk having a flat tire and you don't want that out in the middle of nowhere. In the end, the better solution is to have a better road maintenance, mark the spots where water gathers and make a sink.

    Get a Scania V8 730 with the 4 axles setup, with some chains in the back or use proper tires and you are golden. How much horses are those old trucks putting out? Why not get a tatra truck? Thats a 6x6 with 6 wheel drive.
