Iceland does some of the coolest 4x4 mods. TopGear going to the North Pole, that Hilux was awesome. impressive to see what you've done with an American truck.
Here in America, having a truck that size is called "normal." Hell, we all ride around in our pickups with the big American flags on the back with our shotguns in our laps and eating mcdonalds while our bald eagles fly in formation overhead
***** Sorry to hear that. Come on over to Murica where life is good and the food is big
Ghost He's joking, but I have a GMC on 35s
35's are great, but we're talking 54's

Awesome playing field, that big Ford sure knows how to play in the snow. Would really love to play too !! Bring up more videos guys!
That's just a suburban grocery getter in America ;-)
Nobody has tires that wide in the us
Every off-roader could learn from the Icelandic ideology of setting up an off-road vehicle. I have heard that Iceland has an issue with "treading lightly", so traveling off-road when the ground is frozen is much better, so the vehicles have to reflect that. I loved hearing a snippet of "Hotel California" at 3:00. Keep up the good work, guys. 73 de NV6R
This looks like a lot of fun! A lot like mud bogging but your truck and clothes are clean when you get home :-) It would suck to do repairs in -15C weather though.
That F-350 is a BEAST!!!
Those trucks all lokk awesome. Especially the 350!
7:15 why a nissan can never hang with a powerstroke lol
the Ford F 350 w/54" tires in Europe is the baddest truck on the planet!!!!!!!
Iceland sounds cold! But would be a very cool prize indeed
When going through those very complicated soft surfaces try this:
Join several trucks with 3 mts long rigid bars with "U" joints attachments able to pull & push. With 3 trucks you get a 12 x 12 traction tandem, one of them will always get better grip and you will be able to sort obstacles impossibles for one vehicle.
Thats hard core winter off roading.
THAT LOOKS LIKE SO MUCH FUN!
Very Very Cool truck!!!....and looks like so cold
Have 1979 that can do the same as this truck. Montana USA. Been in snow where I have to back up and clean out the radiator so it wouldn't over heat. To the other ones that couldn't go, Invest in a set of snow chains with 5/16 lugs or bigger. Looks like fun
Nice! When I retire from the Military i'm sooooo moving there!
I love that first 3 second Toyota. Mostly because its parked outside my window :)
Nice, be awesome in floods, storms, traffic jams or any post apocalyptic weather really :)
Damn that looks like a good time.
all these trucks are cool. Built for an off road purpose, not like the boulevard queens around my town.
Looks like a Tonka toy..... BAD ASSSS.
That's what trucks are for! Not for clear highway driving like many Americans use it for
I definitely should try this one day :-)
When is the best time to visit....I'd love to do this & also see the Aurora Borealis with you guys. Thanks.
just darn cool, wish I had the money
Looks like fun except for the fact it's in ICELAND!!
Dude hells yes
that nissan looks like he took his wifes car and rasied it up and the stuck some monster tires on it lol
that thing gets like a solid .3 miles per gallon
unimog axles i love it
Looks like fun.
Those Diffs :O
I am wondering why those track units aren't used in some instances with the real deep snow.
My truck is so small it can almost roll on the surface on that snow, no matter if its 1m deep or 56m... its an arctic cat snowmobile!
Are there portals to accommodate the tires/size?
The cab is bigger than a chev ill admit..But atleast our cab doesnt come off our truck for motor repairs on our diesels. Ive Owned Dodge ford and chev..didnt think id get a gm but i did..Got a 2012 Denali HD and the new 6.6 is unreal out towed the 6.7 psd of my friends with the same trailer. If your from Alberta here like well over half of us own a truck. Fords are work trucks cause there the cheapest and can handle a beating in fields thats about it but even at that now there Dodge and gm.
Dayumm and it's a newer one!
Nice video dude
Very nice
we have mudding, they have snowing?
Sure thing. I was just replying to that specific comment without looking at the 'backstory'. Yeah, Toyota's are good but I prefer American manufacturers for trucks. Mostly because Toyota doesn't sell their diesels here in US.
Awsome!
Whatever happened to hovercraft?
sick...........i live in fairbanks and and have an 01 dodge ram with 35s \
the icelantic zombie enforcement recon team also uses these
Iceland is in europe now?
When Size's matter :P
Are those portal axles?
awsome
How much would a hilux like that cost?
i have to ask "wtf? why?" and i will give myself the answer "because!"
what off-road tires are those
I wonder if he had to get it lifted to fit those tires on...
Rich people having fun....
how do you get the money for this? it is great you are living life very good :)
Take a look at some well built desert trucks and come back and say that.
I don't hate America, I have family in Seattle.
What kind of tires are those.
Brand & Dimensions
they are 54 inch interco boggers.
what does he take on 100km? ;)
With an insuffician lift your truck becomes an underpowered snowplow. That Ford does great with the Swampers. But the Nissan......
a piece of murica in yurop
you could do it in a niva ;D
Sweet, down here in Texas, people only lift their trucks to make them look "better" nice to see a real truck in use.
IDk where you are from in texas, but we actually have the lift for a purpose...may wanna look into that more.
I don't care where it is or who drives it... this looks like a blast of fun.
I had the opportunity to ride in one of these trucks when I was in Iceland about ten years ago.
It's incredible the amount of engineering that goes into these rigs.
The owner explained how it was built. Even describing how they had to move the front axle forward so the massive tires wouldn't catch on the back of the fender wells.
They really are set up more for glacier work though.
The vibration through the cabin at speed on paved roads was a little disconcerting, due to the fact those huge tires can be difficult to balance.
we will probably take that Ford beast out for a cold walk this winter

Subscribe to make sure you won't miss it !!!
Sorry for not answering all you questions please post again if there are any and I will try to answer most.
ps. please tell what you would like to see in my next "snow action" video
That thing is a fucking animal for sure, and the adventure looks fun as hell.
What would I like to see... technical river hazard crossing/fording (for instance entry and exits off steep and large snowbanks)!

This is exactly what we need up here in ND!
the look of that truck is perfect the lift and tire combination is just perfect has that menacing look
didn't think pick up trucks existed in Europe, this is nice to see.
That's an odd thing to think :p
Not like the rest of the world has no uses for a pickup truck, we move stuff around too, you know :D
many ford f series dodge and chevy to.
in EU? not even one
There’s a lot, Arctic trucks were made in Iceland first.
Ford 350 with 54 are daily drivers in the US.
gary s Especially here in Ga.
no americans lift their trucks up and do nothing else
Grétar Örn Grétarsson || be quiet fool. You have no knowledge of what goes on here in the U.S apparently...
gary s the tires are custom made here in iceland we dont lift our truck so they can pool cool it is a necessity of you but american truck with american tires they would sink and get stuk
Daily drivers...maybe but rather for enlargement of certain other things then for real offroad use and I don‘t mean driving through a mud pit
'Merica
No. This is using these cars properly.. Not buying a big ass 4x4 to support your fat ass when you get your groceries ('Merica-style)
Oh I'm sorry, I didn't know Ford wasn't an American company. Which was the purpose of my comment. Also I do the same thing with a 2000 F-250 V10, it see's snow and mud. Also off-roading isn't the purpose of Ford trucks, if you lived in America you'd know the majority of their advertisements are work based, as in hauling trailers and carrying heavy objects. The only Ford truck I've seen advertised as an off-road vehicle is the Ford Raptor. "Using properly" would assume you are using it for its intended purpose, which this is not its intended purpose. I am not saying these trucks can't handle this type of use in stock form, I speak from experience that they can. Buying groceries in a large 4x4 is not how people do things where I live. Yes we do go to the store with them, but that is not the only thing we use them for. I usually see that type of use from people who live in large cities. People come from Chicago to where I live and do this stuff. Is it "'Merica-style"? No, not by a long shot. The fact that you assume everyone in America lives in a city and is a fat-ass that needs a 4x4 to carry them around shows you know nothing. I dislike large cities because majority of people I meet from there don't understand how the world works. Much like you. I can only assume you hate Americans because of what our government does in other countries. I don't support our "intervention" in other countries affairs. But do not put me in the same category as some democrat idiot who is overweight and wants the government to take care of them.
I said properly, not that this is their soul purpose. Obviously they are capable and advertised for more then just offroading. However there's just a shitload of people who buy these big cars and use them for nothing more than daily routines such as driving to work and doing groceries.
And obviously not everyone in America, it just realy fits the 'Murica slang. So don't feel offended if you're not part of the group I was pointing out, im sure you can be a part of them.. Just eat more McD and never get out of your 4x4 again.
Honestly I get sick when I eat at McDs hahaha...
ReVerZe I don't know if you've actually been to the US, but the large trucks used where I live are used for hauling large trailers filled with horses, not something your average European van or truck can accomplish.
that f350 is am absolute monster. love it.
'MERIC....Oh, wait..
That truck is small lol I've seen bigger but i do live in the southern U.S.
FORD
Must have some seriously low gearing.
+RcFrenzy Jup, some people tend to drop a second low range box in them. Then just second gear, and let it crawl. Adds up to around half a walking pace.
best gas milage ever!!! 5 gallons for every foot it moves...
this truck looks mild compared to US trucks lol
The only difference is that they are alredy using for real this truck
I just farted!
Henry Ford (founder of Ford Automobiles) and Adolf Hitler admired each other's achievements. Adolf Hitler kept a life-size portrait of Ford next to his desk. "I regard Henry Ford as my inspiration," In July 1938, four months after the German annexation of Austria, Ford was awarded the Grand Cross of the German Eagle, the highest medal awarded by Nazi Germany to foreigners.
Ford disliked the administration of President Franklin D. Roosevelt and did not approve of U.S. involvement in the war.
This is why i hate Ford
and what does that have to do with Ford today? Is the ceo of Ford admired my Hitler?
you must be an idiot deejaysanji
Deejaysanji 1992 What a load of shit.
That Ford is just badass....nice rig....
Should re name your title, I thought you took a shitty Ford and fit a Chevy 350 in it....
Or, you know. leave it how it is because it's an F350....the kind that are all over this country so you should know better.
So i can get a ton of #recalls no thanks jack ass
Really? Go put your helmet back on before you hurt yourself.
Why don't you see Junk GM shit up there? Stay in your apartment dumbfuck.
doubt a 350 would have the torque, dumbass.
I would actually love a complete list of build up specifications on that F350. Very impressive!
Awesome Vid ! Spent a year in Iceland in the Early 90s while serving in the Military. Saw some Monster Glacier rigs back then. These guys know how to build Big Badass Durable Trucks!
All this to go find a budweiser? Here's the funny part; Make it 1 truck. At night. 20 below, and a rod breaks. Or a drive shaft twists, or even just a tire goes flat. If you've ever done this crap for a living, you find out real quick its no fun what they are doing.
Wow, for once a legit BADASS Ford. Definitely capable. I was not expecting a Ford with 54's to be put together that well. Rugged axles, gearing, and some decent flex. Hmmm, compliments to the builder!
axles unimog???? 406???
The fucking toyota hilux 4x4 diesel man I wish they made ones for USA
Those boys in the Toyota need to put down their wine glass and Gloria Easteban and HIT THE GAS. When your trying to break thru a snow dam you can't just bump it. Ha
Sorry to tell you but I saw an F-350 and a larger lift kit in NRW Germany, and it was on the road with a German plate. It had an entire subframe built below it. So this 350 is not the biggest in Europe.
My daily driver for 12 years was bigger than that keep trying Euro's
Those are some pretty bad-ass trucks. My goodness!

I have always loved the Tundra blasters. Iceland hats off - from drag racing straight up rock cliffs to powering through giant drifts in white outs! uh......except one thing, no trees. We have volcanos here too, it's just that they've progressed a few more eons. Love the footage!.
The music is hilarious:) like they were bored driving in traffic at rush hour or something like that
I wonder if a grader's dump would be useful in this situation on the first most powerfull truck? The lower snow snowdrift the easy travel.
Since a truck like that weighs 3900KG or there abouts according to EU regulation cars maximum weight(truck weight + allowed cargo weight) can't exceed 3500KG it can't be registered as a car and must be registered as a commercial vehicle. Which means you have to have at least C1 license and also must have a tachograph in your truck and follow EU regulations for drivers(drive a maximum of 4.5h without a break, 10h a day max etc)
Iceland isn't in the EU ;)
how do you know all of this regulatory information, and yet you don't know that Island is not part of the EU?
NYC Taxi Photo
Iceland is part of Europe, not the European Union. There's a huge difference.
that's my point.
Kaarel Kaljura What about motorhomes? I know some of them weigh more than 3500Kg , do they have to be registered as a commercial vehicle?
His brother section if possible, tell the Super Duty F-350 Is there any amendments to the Differential turbo or please give me all the specs Thanks
Great work there! Oh and a good day to all of you reading this! :)
5:02 jesus you nut case I would've shit my pants if I was in that other truck!
