*"I have trouble getting down on the floor"* . Yup, me too. My right knee tends to sort of *POP* sometimes when I take a step up a stair. Same thing getting up off the floor. Price of having lived quite a few years! BEATS THE ALTERNATIVE! 😁
Eric & Mara I cannot believe I have been watching the channel for almost 20 years. I remember when Abby was just a "curtain climber" & now she has a job. (I say this in a positive light).
I like your SnowCat the best. It's simple, functional, and unmodified to make it more reliable. I'm happy for Marra to finally get all 4 tires on the ground.
Strange, I clicked on the thumbnail and the video started at about the 10 minute mark and I didn't notice. The first time I missed almost half the video. I saw Blondie mentioned a couple of times in the comments and wondered how I missed it and went back and watched all of it. That Sno Cat is a beast and I look forward to seeing it in deeper snow.
It's always a good idea to "take it for a rip" after doing the maintenance. Just to make sure everything is working properly!! Besides that, it FUN!!! LOL!!
Blondie is a lot of work but you know it will be great to have a backup summer time recovery rig. You won't have to worry about the wrecker possibly breaking during a recovery. And Blondie will be cool.
After this season you should do a complete overhaul on snow cat. Make brand new again. I think would bring a lot of viewers as well. And add some air ride seats in that thing !
I have trouble getting down on the floor to, getting up is the bigger problem 😅 Not to mention the bump on my right arm (Elbow) my knees, my neck since 91 doctor looked at the xray of my neck a few days ago and said "Your neck is really messed up" Tell me something I don't know. It's also weird that almost all of the doctors are younger than me! A lot younger! Getting older is tough, but definitely the best option 👍
@4:10... I see you took my advice and decided to lower the truck to the tire! @15:35... That was a lot of Turkey!!! I don't think I've ever seen that many in one place, at one time!
Definitely get that heater fixed. Need that heat. At least ride it comfort to the job get out and freeze your butt off... But that's a good thing because you will do the job faster to bed able to get back to the heat. Lol... Great video guys. The OG
Eric, this snowcat is very cool. The 4 wheel steering track system seems very capable compared to the bombi brake based streering matt and Robby have. This seems far more capable, even has the boom and sling! Since it's soo bumpy due to lack of suspension, is it possible to maybe install a used Air Ride seat inside from an old junk yard semi truck? This would certainly improve your comfort without re-engineering the entire axel system. Food for thought. Blonde is coming along, i sure hope to see that at the wrecker games :)
Eric you have had your snow cat for what 2 years now and you haven’t been able to use it yet?? Well I definitely can’t wait to see how well it does on it’s first really big job for sure!!! I’m not sure if we are going to get enough snow this year though once again??? Awesome video and it definitely looks good running around out in the snow also!!!!
Well, going through the woods with the camera on the roof you could see the yellow strobe light. Looks like there’s a mouse jumping around inside of it.😮😂😂😂
You just put that crap you cleaned off into your Diff. Should have maybe cleaned that off before you put the gears in.. It's not much, but it's still there. j/s
I feel like a trader. I started watching your channel a few years ago. Was loyal as hell. Then TH-cam took you out of my rotation and i forgot about you. I’m back and I’m sorry i left.

With age and experience comes wisdom . When we were young we all muscled things up into place , they will learn just like we all did .
I don't think I've ever seen Eric smile that much!
Mara is turning into a good worker / mechanic. And looking great
BSF recovery team is awesome along with Rory with trailmater these guys know exactly how to do the job

The Tucker is a great machine, best part of the video was the snow cat run!!
She thought he was coming back for her, and he didn't even pause before the next hill!😅 love you guys!
I can't wait to see Blondie done and I can't wait to see you do a recovery with the snow cat
Bring on the Sno-Cat recoveries!!!

The way it turns indicates those wheels for tracks are probably good for another season or two depending on how hard use it this year
Looks great in the snow. God Bless Y’all 😊
That's gotta be one of the first times I've seen Eric grin from ear to ear. Blondi is coming along swell.
Well done Eric
Woohoo, Blondie is on all fours. What am awesome build
6:07 Menards Find! I got the same one for my dad! Glad you guys finally got snow!
Boys and their toys! LOL. Hey, at least it snowed!

Great progress on Blondie, love the Sno Cat. Will be great when you get a foot or more snow...
So nice to see snow cat out in snow and the smile u have was amazing. like kid in a candy store
At 17:23 I think likes is not a strong enough word, I love it and only get to watch him enjoying it!
You got some snow good time to test and see if the snow cat could recover the wrecker.
You can that Eric has a hard time letting other people doing the work. Great job Mara.
Gad to see your project coming together! I like those rims!
I think fixing the heater would be a good next project!
aw....We don't need no stinking heater...running through snowdrifts to connect winches will warm you up...
Now that it’s almost finished, I’m get anxious and can’t wait to see it moving under its own power 😂😂😂👍🏾
Need to get some sound panels for inside cab to help with sound and insulation. Glad to see it running.

Eric, I've never seen you ride the horses. How bout putting that in a video soon. Back country trail ride and recovery on horseback. ❤
After this season you should do a complete overhaul on snow cat. Make brand new again. I think would bring a lot of viewers as well. And add some air ride seats in that thing !
keep the clips coming
that snowcat is awesome
I have trouble getting down on the floor to, getting up is the bigger problem 😅 Not to mention the bump on my right arm (Elbow) my knees, my neck since 91 doctor looked at the xray of my neck a few days ago and said "Your neck is really messed up" Tell me something I don't know. It's also weird that almost all of the doctors are younger than me! A lot younger! Getting older is tough, but definitely the best option 👍
I so can not wait to see you use the sno cat on its first recovery.
Blondie is going to be cool when she finished. Can’t wait to see the Sno-Kat doing recovery.
Great job guys. Thank you 😊
Thanks for watching!
Nice ride in pretty country. Big turkey flock. 👍
I love watching the old content but more. You sound just like my wife so.
I told you trees gotta go.
I believe he is having a great time now that it snowed.

Gets some all rubber trax rated for snow. Maclaren is one brand
I was thinking the same, it will smooth out with enough snow. You could tell by the in cab camera that was not a smooth ride
yes you need to pay attention to your rear track as it points out towards the trees while steering and could hit one. ??
I guess the 4 wheel steer would have less impact on the ground than a skidsteer, I'd be fixing the heater soon
Gotta do those function checks
Eric you have had your snow cat for what 2 years now and you haven’t been able to use it yet?? Well I definitely can’t wait to see how well it does on it’s first really big job for sure!!! I’m not sure if we are going to get enough snow this year though once again??? Awesome video and it definitely looks good running around out in the snow also!!!!
Bombi or Whiskers haven't a thing on the Sno-Cat!
well ya, you have to try it out
Well, going through the woods with the camera on the roof you could see the yellow strobe light. Looks like there’s a mouse jumping around inside of it.😮😂😂😂
Was that a mouse in the Strobe light!?
Ya'll need enuf snow so the next time Miss Abby needs a ride to work she can go in style in the SnowCat! 🌨⛄🏂🏔😊
You guys have one up on what other do.
G'day guys
🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 are for the great video.
Snowcat Driver cap need to be sitting on the frame on airbags like on scania trucks
No posi for the front end?
Not yet, it is on the list.
Big kid with latest toy,have to play
3rd. I was just wondering if snow cat was out yet
What is actually wrong with the heater. Maybe you could put air ride seats in the sno cat.
My chiropractor has a massage table that does not vibrate that much.
Brrrrrrr !
I was hoping for more like a foot or two of snow and not 4 to 6 inches.
2 inches of fluff aint enough to even smooth the ride out. It aint gonna be good if we don't get enough snow again this year
Please use a mask grinding I am 72 and have mild COP symptoms. Not nice when you can’t breath scary
U should latch the hood down on the snow cat drivers side is not latched
You just put that crap you cleaned off into your Diff. Should have maybe cleaned that off before you put the gears in.. It's not much, but it's still there. j/s
2nd
Bad teacher. No safety glasses? 🙄
First
Your mom must be proud of you
@joethanks3745 im semi retired man , no work already takingvtime
Boys and their toys! Boys get older, their toys get bigger!😅
I seen a Willy’s should build on that I’ll watch that one to
I would have waited for it to dry before putting oil in it. Soon oil will start to seep out.
