Hey, home scones! Watch to (hopefully) make Phase 4 Amur life easier. Subscribe, like and let the video run to the end - even if you disappear off to make dinner/worm the cat (preferably not at the same time). It all helps me make more Internet truck videos. Take care!
The fact that the 605r is top of the list is not much of a surprise. But I was shocked to see the azov Antarctic where it was on the list, I tried to use it and found it a bit too tippy for my liking. But then again Amur is the hardest region yet so every truck on this list has its tippy moments. I hope phase 5 is just a little bit more reasonable.
Antarctic is only good on flat terrain as it is extremely tippy. I only use mine to pull other trucks out of ice holes since it has70 inch tires that don’t get stuck in the ice as easily.
On your 10 best scout trucks... I've found the CAT 745 is the best scout I've found so far. It just goes places. Even very narrow gaps to lock it to a actual scout are often defeated by just driving through the forest or crawling up the rocks anyway. Its lack of speed in the open is countered by every map seems to put deep mud, snow, etc every couple hundred meters to ensure you can't settle into just going places. So just roll along in L+ and enjoy not slowing for deep mud.
While the kolobs have served me well in the past, urska river has forced me to change my opinion on them in terms of their quest efficiency due to them only being able to fit the high saddle. I always wanted a specific truck for hailing all 3 trailer types (high, low and tow hook) in the game... And with the azov 64131 having that gorgeous new skin, it gave me the perfect excuse to finally see what the hype was about... And it did live up to it. Say hello to my new trailer hauling truck! For nothing but a whole week I've been stuck fixing bridges, only to find one with one simple quest I could have saved a s*** load of time driving metal rolls up and down the map to get metal beams... Urksa river is the defenition of a troll and roll map
wait wait what do you mean? I am currently in exactly this position, driving metal rolls up this stupid hill for beams. what do you mean by troll "one simple quest saves a load of time"??? please, don't leave me hanging!
The mk38 civilian and Azov 64131 are my favorite trucks. Though the mk38 is prone to tip, I've learned to master it and use it as my main recovery truck
I just started but I've been using the new Tatra T813. It feels a bit op on the first Michigan map but I really like it. I can't wait to play around with these other beasts.
Good truck list, personally I use new Sentinel for scouting; Voron Grad as a general purpose truck and for light trailers; Boar for long logs and sometimes for heavy trailers before I unlocked ZikZ and mentioned ZikZ 605r as also general purpose vehicle, for heavy trailers and in the future for seismic missions.
It was in the list for a while, especially as it's free. But I got annoyed at its spinny wheels more in Amur so it's sitting this map out lol. Definitely a top tier truck for most tasks!
If I had topped off the 605r when I got to it instead of towing it out I would have found that it unlocked when fully repaired and fueled. Instead I was one liter short and had to make it to the fuel station and back.
Ive had great experience using Tatra FORCE on Amur. It is slow, but its steady, can push through lot of stuff with chain tires, can use crane+bed+trailer combo and it has great combination of fuel efficiency and massive tank.
I agree with your list my only honorable mention would be Azov 5319 as I used it in multiplayer to help people get the white western star.i would take the central path and have someone bring a fuel truck and it would pull it back without problems but would require 2 refuelings to get back to garage.
My usual setup for this map is: Tayga, Zikz 605R, Antarctic, Kolob 74941, Azov 64131 with a crane, Cat 745C+Kodiak as maintenance vehicles and Navistar with chains for the icy patches. Also big ole Tartarin, just for good measure
Zikz 605r is also capable of self loading crane, the xml file is already present in the media, but devs had removed it, you just need to add it back and adjust some offsets x,y,z. There might be a mod out for this already.
In terms uf utility the Paystar 5600TS beats your "Swiss Army Knife" the Azov 73210 - 3 cargo slots + ability to pull a 4 slot trailer is unrivaled and makes it the "swiss army knife king" :-) I also think with its low center of gravity + superstrong engine and wheel setup, it performs the same as the 73210 in harsh terrain. I use these two trucks the most atm and both are great. I prefer the 73210 for heavy special trailers, but a fully loaded 5600TS + trailer never cease to amaze me how it plows through harsh terrain...mostly in high gear even. Because of their similar performance the would make a good showdown pair ;-) Anyway, your my go to Snowrunner channel, great work!
The Kolob 74760 actually has a bit more torque that the other Kolob. They are so heavy until they have to switch to gear 1 or 2 more often, they're certainly not lacking in power. In fact, the 74760 appears to have more torque than what it's rated for. Because the tires aren't unique. Aside from the Zikz and the Dan, they are certainly the most potent at pulling super heavy trailers with anything on it. And aside from the Zikz 605r, the Kolobs are the best non-mod trucks for pulling trailers in Snowrunner.
Yes it's probably the tyre bonus, but for some reason I just find I have more success in some of the other heavy trucks. I love how the Kolobs look so I keep revisiting them.
I use Tatra T813 for 1. because I'm Czech, and I think it's great that he's in that game, and that I can drive a legendary Czech truck 2. I think it's not a bad truck, and he can handle a lot of snow and mud, and almost nowhere did he leave me standing in place 3. It is true that he is slower but he comes to me accurate and sure, and that he passes slowly everything that turns out to be, albeit slowly, but passes 4.this his horn is simply divine. I believe that it is not the best truck, but it is simply Czech love.
One thing I don't like when it is the garage the wheels look bent, like pointing out. Sold it for 200k as I have the other new Tatra phoenix and the big beast Tatra. Too bad you can use only high saddle would be cool if low saddle too.
Well I learnt a few things watching that, thanks! The big paystar I never thought of trying a fuel tank so did not know it was extended. Hmm. I did give the Arctic a good try but could not get on with it. Totally agree regards the twinsteer too, great piece of kit, and the kolob long nose is just steady and unstoppable. Maps seem more detailed too I thought. Still love my fully upgraded acteon with a fuel trailer on for scouting. Cheers!
That's something. The 42-20 is definitely Marmite, it can be great but tip once and then I have to hide it at the back of the garage while I learn to forgive.
@@ATribeCalledCars learn to forgive! Good way of putting it 😄 I was putting down my joypad, grumbling at it then went to make another cuppa. Biscuits were often involved too.
It was no easy task but I was able to unlock the ZikZ 605-R. Since I have unlocked it, I have used it more than every other truck on the game. It has been great for making easy money on contests in the Drowned Lands and Zimnergorsk maps in the Taymyr region. It also has done really good in the Yellow Rock National Forest in Maine over the frozen flooded roads.
Tbh currently using 49x in Chernokamensk crane and side board but 4 cargo smaller truck but heavy winch put the axle down to assist in braking down ice slopes
It really changes so much the Azov 73210 with the new suspensión? I think i agree with you with all trucks, except the tayga, and the DAN, is long and loves to scratch the stomach on the rocks
Absolutely! I used it to unlock the tunnel between Urska River and Cosmodrome, it was perfect! You just need to be careful with tipping, but otherwise it is a monster.
As always awesome vid, I never thought I would say this but... the krs Bandit is actually not that bad on phase 4 maps, the Azov 5319 goes through death mud and death ice with ease, but it’s thirsty.
The bandit is awful when it’s not loaded, but if you use it as a long log carrier it’s pretty much the best truck for that. Shorter than others, not that thirsty and not as tippy with logs.
@@ratonbox Adding weight helps indeed but even for the cargo beam delivery I found it wasn't as capable as I remembered. I might be inclined to swap to offroad in future use as I did with the Tayga.
Awesome as always! 🤙🔥,question to anyone,when you loose a mod truck do you get back the cash or no? 2nd time that has happen to me I cant seems to find them back,oh I'm playing on ps4 btw.
You don't get back the cash so best to reload the mod and then sell (pretty sure I've done this but maybe I'm just old and senile) or just sell before in case.
KOLOB 74760 needs more love i think. I tried to pull some stuff with CAT 745C and it couldnt. The same job was done with KOLOB. Btw wheres the luv for F750? As a scout its pretty good (dont compare to tatarin :P )
I really want to love the 74760 but it never wows me. But perhaps I'm a bit harsh! F 750 is a great scout repair beast, for sure. Especially since the devs added the engine it needed to beef up the power.
@@ATribeCalledCars kolob is great just for the power it can make and since i fell in love the bigbig semi-trailer (8 space trailer) i dont think there is a better choice for it. Using in the hardest parts i mean and with som effort i can get it everywhere. There are still places where i use cat 745C to winch it but doesnt matter what truck it is its impossible to get through without 745c big wheels. And yep im still a virgin at using mods :D
It's the mighty azov iceberg, the mod was off for an update, it's back now with more frames. So far that's the best truck I've ever used and I wouldn't use other moded trucks
That's one of the best mods to run this map. Azov Iceberg, you can basically use it as a scout all the way. I got two. One with sideboard and the other with the repair cargo unit.
Don't blame you, you get the challenge and cool looks with more satisfaction. I actually really enjoy the Iceberg for just cruising. Some vanilla trucks are just too slow in deep snow and mud, which is realistic but sometimes I want some speed!
@@ATribeCalledCars Agreed, speed is king now! After getting all of the "vanilla" vehicles and grinding it out for many, many maps, it really is nice just to pick a cool looking rig point it in a direction and go. Word of warning... DO NOT take that tempting little shortcut down the power lines close to the garage!!! I did it once in the Modded Antarctic... never again ;)
Why does nobody love the Azov 5319? I explored all of lake covid and imandra with it (with the stock engine btw) and am now doing all of Amur, with the service add on it basically becomes a big scout, yet nobody talks about it
@@saabaton169 Yeah it's a beast really, with more fuel it would be in the list. It's mainly because of the driving times in Amur. The rest is excellent.
What if running an American-only fleet? Currently I just explored all map, now is repairing roads and restoring facilities. I use F750 as primary scout, Loadstar 1700 as radar scouting, 6900TS and 5700TS for transporting.
@@ATribeCalledCars F750 can carry more fuel and repair, so I use it as primary scout. 1700 can tow radar, so I usually let them go out together. 1700 only drive radar on main road, then F750 goes off road. It appears that the radar is quite heavy, 1700 often has hard time with it. American fleet lacks 2 things compare to Russian fleet: 1 6WD mud tire truck with crane+bed capability; 2 6WD or 8WD saddle high tractor. Yes they already have Paystar 5070 , P12 and Longhorn 4520, but all of them lack power. You may probably surprised that in my fleet, M916A1 actually works as the heavy tractor. It proves its heavy tractor capability in the task , which indeed surprised me. I don't know what DEVs was thinking to remove MK38's frame add-on capability, it supposed to be a true competitor of Tayga.
@@ATribeCalledCars I'm sorry, curious what's the "other side"? Russian side? Well, AutoKrAZ is a factory in a Kremenchug city of Ukraine. And the "KrAZ" itself is a abbreviation to Kremenchug Avtomobilnyi Zavod (which means Kremenchug Automobile Factory). The only "other possible side" that can "claim rights" - is USSR, which fortunately doesn't exist anymore. But even then, the city were still in Ukrainian Republik, it never "moved geographycally". Calling KrAZ - russian is the same as calling "Irish Pub" - british ... because reasons :D
Personally I use the paystar JBE because it’s insanely op and for vanilla trucks I use the Antarctic and all the vorons and I also use the acteon and the warthog and the yar ( this list is for people who don’t particularly agree with this list ) 🙃😁
I think it depends on skill level, what you enjoy and the map. I'm glad I used the vanilla trucks for most of the first year but some trucks can be tedious in the later maps. It's tough balancing maps to be doable in the weakest trucks while still giving a challenge to the OP mod stuff. Amur does this well, especially on console when your mod selection cuts out some of the most ridiculously OP stuff such as the WS 714WM. But yeah some trucks can take away the grind, which does actually help you improve and forces you to really learn each map.
@@ATribeCalledCars yeah I get exactly what you mean, I just don’t want to download loads of mods and tweak trucks just for the challenge aspect of the game to be taken away. Thank you for your opinion! Edit: Is the WS 714WM the Western Monster Mod?
I tried to get the rocket parts on the carerpillar 745 c but i cant load them on it.....is this some kind of bug..... i already postet it in the official reddit forum for snowrruner but the mods deleted my post after 1 hour......
I have been experimenting with a lot of trucks, mods and so on. The game is becoming super "trolly" and forces gamers to go for low+ which is a shame. The Zikz605R is a beast, but I used a modded P512W today to haul in Chernokamensk and man that thing runs great. I have fuel all over the place and how now opened all obstacles. The amount of undercarriage damage is crazy, and I am not even going that fast. But switch to High gear and you seem to be hitting rocks where there are none.
Any chance of a Best trucks for Hard Mode? all too easy to get any truck you want in Normal, but in hard mode, you wont have the money for them until you've fully completed a Map
I've not played hard mode enough to work this out but I'd imagine I would focus on the Fleetstar, Tayga, 64131, 420 Tatarin and Cat 745C. Would give me the greatest chance of success I think!
@@ATribeCalledCars on my hard mode playthrough which ive restarted several times now from rolling or getting stuck all my starter vehicles ive decided to stick to roads and try to unlock the P16 early. The tayga im leaving for now due to the cost of garage deployments and repair trailer. Im trying to get through not wasting any money at all if poss. As getting more trucks is the most important thing as more trucks is more lives. I think the first truck i will buy will be Azov 64131. Thanks to your videos and testing. Cheers! :)
Me have watched this video and chose to ignore most of it with my established line up of trucks. 1. Caterpillar CT680 2. Freightliner 114SD 3. International HX520 4. International 5600ts 5. Derry Longhorn 3194 6. Westernstar 6900 Twinsteer
These will definitely work. I actually had the HX 520 and CT on my preliminary list but they do take a bit more effort to work in Amur. But always best people play the game as they want to! Meant to be fun and all that.
In my case the tayga, Voron A and regular azov anatartic mostly but if i need a rescue then out comes one of the jbe;s or the tweaked anatartic mod truck (which I just tipped over trying to take a short cut lol)
Hey there. Thanks for the kind words. I guess you could join the official SnowRunner Discord and/or mine, usually a fair few SnowRunners in these places.
It will be a slow slog, especially if you do not have decent upgrades such as mud tyres, raised suspension and better engines. I'd enjoy other maps first and build up the fleet and level.
@@dunkenhunter167 Whatever truck you can upgrade to those upgrades as early as possible. The Tayga 6436 is a beast but will require a higher level to utilise. Dan 96320 also strong and available early on, CAT 745C for rescues. All not hard to get in the early days.
@@ATribeCalledCars Yeah, we are 3 people, should work i guess we rescuing etc. another question; Can you take the 605r to another map after you get him?
@@dunkenhunter167 Yes, all trucks can be used in any map. You just have to pack it in the garage (I forget the exact name), then swap map and unpack in the new garage location.
I was late to hop into the new maps. My first 90 seconds as follows: "oh a new scout, better fully upgrade it and get the watchtowers" leave garage, turn left, fall into a giant fucking crack in the ground. Shit. Side note, i couldnt "scout" a fucking thing with a scout on that map. Except the tatarin ofc. As for what I use, i use a small cluster of US military mod vehicles. One of them is the derry longhorn and its basically jesus on wheels.
The kolobs, are stiff as an wooden wooden planks. The get's stuck really easy on rocks. Dan has an more soft frame. Following the ground way better. When the kolobs just bounce around. And then the chain tires.
This DLC is nearly impossible and makes a few KM trip take 30mins. That's fine, except when those portions are every few hundred meters, and worst-of-all, you can't catch a single good route, nothing for semi-trailers, next to nothing for regular trailers, and a whole lot of poorly placed stumps and obstacles that are clearly meant to throw a wrench in every cog possible. I would not recommend people buy this, unless they're skilled, patient, and looking for a sheer challenge throughout the entire map. I left the region after struggling for 3 days to even build the bridges. Not sure if I did something, or everything wrong, but I wish I could get a refund and warn others about this unexpectedly difficult DLC; this has ruined the game for me massively, wasting money sucks.
You mean spintires renamed for the 3rd time cause they remove any mods that make it the way the community asks. Let mods through for people to try them only to rob the hard earned in game money. Only to add shitty non usable vehicles that only do the same thing. We call it snowrunner use Ice but never give you real spiked ice tires too put trees in the middle of roads
I have phase 4 but i will never finish.because literally suffering.game looks alike arcade.all times driving the trucks on the stupid rocks,ice,stones.there is no any road
@@MarkNiceyard Ahh my apologies, I misunderstood. It's a DLC that contains a new area with two or four new maps, new trucks and sometimes other stuff too such as new stickers. Seasons can be bought separately or as a group of four as part of the year passes (there are three and a fourth is coming).
Hey, home scones! Watch to (hopefully) make Phase 4 Amur life easier. Subscribe, like and let the video run to the end - even if you disappear off to make dinner/worm the cat (preferably not at the same time). It all helps me make more Internet truck videos. Take care!

You don't get back the cash so best to reload the mod and then sell (pretty sure I've done this but maybe I'm just old and senile) or just sell before in case.
@@ATribeCalledCars like hit the opinion install off the turn it back on? 🤔
Anyone else been watching Ben since he started the channel? Like been there for the very first video just waiting for the next release
Very helpful video, thanks!
Re: WS 6900 TS: "...and the lack of trailers can be a huge turn on for the terminally lazy"
🙋🏻♂️ That's me!
Definitely me too.
I have to wait until august until I can get this. But I need the money for a moped and my CBT. Oh well I'll live
Priorities. More freedom beats SnowRunner. Hopefully after that you can have both though.
@@ATribeCalledCars This ^
Great Video Friend. I love snowrunner super relaxing and fun
KOLOB 74760 needs more love i think. I tried to pull some stuff with CAT 745C and it couldnt. The same job was done with KOLOB. Btw wheres the luv for F750? As a scout its pretty good (dont compare to tatarin :P )
I really want to love the 74760 but it never wows me. But perhaps I'm a bit harsh! F 750 is a great scout repair beast, for sure. Especially since the devs added the engine it needed to beef up the power.
@@ATribeCalledCars kolob is great just for the power it can make and since i fell in love the bigbig semi-trailer (8 space trailer) i dont think there is a better choice for it. Using in the hardest parts i mean and with som effort i can get it everywhere. There are still places where i use cat 745C to winch it but doesnt matter what truck it is its impossible to get through without 745c big wheels. And yep im still a virgin at using mods :D
Seeing what that new azov suspension can do makes me want that badly.. Btw, which mods are you running to get that antarctic kitted out that way?
That's the Iceberg, but the mod that tweaks the measurements is also more versatile. Worth giving both a look.
It's the mighty azov iceberg, the mod was off for an update, it's back now with more frames. So far that's the best truck I've ever used and I wouldn't use other moded trucks
That's one of the best mods to run this map. Azov Iceberg, you can basically use it as a scout all the way. I got two. One with sideboard and the other with the repair cargo unit.
Great vid Ben thx! I must admit to using the Mod of the Antarctic to do most everything now a days... Scouting included ;)
Don't blame you, you get the challenge and cool looks with more satisfaction. I actually really enjoy the Iceberg for just cruising. Some vanilla trucks are just too slow in deep snow and mud, which is realistic but sometimes I want some speed!
@@ATribeCalledCars Agreed, speed is king now! After getting all of the "vanilla" vehicles and grinding it out for many, many maps, it really is nice just to pick a cool looking rig point it in a direction and go. Word of warning... DO NOT take that tempting little shortcut down the power lines close to the garage!!! I did it once in the Modded Antarctic... never again ;)
@@snafu_7131 Oh yeah that area is the worst, even if you take the sides. No truck works here.
Good job on the videos keep it up.
Cheers, I shall keep doing them so long as people keep watching.
Why does nobody love the Azov 5319? I explored all of lake covid and imandra with it (with the stock engine btw) and am now doing all of Amur, with the service add on it basically becomes a big scout, yet nobody talks about it
Scouting I can see it working nicely, but I always seem to run out of fuel too fast when pulling trailers. I do like it though.
@@ATribeCalledCars 200l fuel tank, but it looks cool and no overhangs, better off-road than the other azov just got less endurance
@@saabaton169 Yeah it's a beast really, with more fuel it would be in the list. It's mainly because of the driving times in Amur. The rest is excellent.
@@ATribeCalledCars what about the voron grad though, nobody talks about that either
What if running an American-only fleet? Currently I just explored all map, now is repairing roads and restoring facilities. I use F750 as primary scout, Loadstar 1700 as radar scouting, 6900TS and 5700TS for transporting.
Really solid fleet, that's what I'd use. 1700 is a great scout still, F 750 for repairs, the other two for cargo. Job done!
@@ATribeCalledCars F750 can carry more fuel and repair, so I use it as primary scout. 1700 can tow radar, so I usually let them go out together. 1700 only drive radar on main road, then F750 goes off road. It appears that the radar is quite heavy, 1700 often has hard time with it. American fleet lacks 2 things compare to Russian fleet: 1 6WD mud tire truck with crane+bed capability; 2 6WD or 8WD saddle high tractor. Yes they already have Paystar 5070 , P12 and Longhorn 4520, but all of them lack power. You may probably surprised that in my fleet, M916A1 actually works as the heavy tractor. It proves its heavy tractor capability in the task , which indeed surprised me.
I don't know what DEVs was thinking to remove MK38's frame add-on capability, it supposed to be a true competitor of Tayga.
Nice video, thanx.
Maybe someone told you already, dunno, but "Tayga", which is based on KrAZ, is not a russian truck, but ukrainian.
I have heard both sides claiming this truck yeah, I don't get involved lol.
@@ATribeCalledCars I'm sorry, curious what's the "other side"? Russian side?
Well, AutoKrAZ is a factory in a Kremenchug city of Ukraine. And the "KrAZ" itself is a abbreviation to Kremenchug Avtomobilnyi Zavod (which means Kremenchug Automobile Factory).
The only "other possible side" that can "claim rights" - is USSR, which fortunately doesn't exist anymore. But even then, the city were still in Ukrainian Republik, it never "moved geographycally".
Calling KrAZ - russian is the same as calling "Irish Pub" - british ... because reasons :D
@@Snumsmumr1k просто двигатели, коробки передач, и основные узлы производили в России, а собирали это все в грузовик на Украине

@@Snumsmumr1k I don't know why google translate is not working
Nailed it.
Cleared all the content with krs bandit azov was just too slow bandit tips over easily but it can have crane bed trailer and its super fast.
Personally I use the paystar JBE because it’s insanely op and for vanilla trucks I use the Antarctic and all the vorons and I also use the acteon and the warthog and the yar ( this list is for people who don’t particularly agree with this list ) 🙃😁
I mean Ben’s list
I plan to tackle Amur soonish, and I will take the Rang3r trucks that I have downloaded.
Would you say tweak trucks ruin the game and the point of vanilla trucks?
I think it depends on skill level, what you enjoy and the map. I'm glad I used the vanilla trucks for most of the first year but some trucks can be tedious in the later maps. It's tough balancing maps to be doable in the weakest trucks while still giving a challenge to the OP mod stuff. Amur does this well, especially on console when your mod selection cuts out some of the most ridiculously OP stuff such as the WS 714WM. But yeah some trucks can take away the grind, which does actually help you improve and forces you to really learn each map.
@@ATribeCalledCars yeah I get exactly what you mean, I just don’t want to download loads of mods and tweak trucks just for the challenge aspect of the game to be taken away. Thank you for your opinion!
Edit: Is the WS 714WM the Western Monster Mod?
I tried to get the rocket parts on the carerpillar 745 c but i cant load them on it.....is this some kind of bug..... i already postet it in the official reddit forum for snowrruner but the mods deleted my post after 1 hour......
Even when using a crane to load? That's usually what you need to do for the crane less trucks with a cargo bed.
Video suggestion: How to install mods manually on snowrunner, would really help a lot
Good idea, noted.
I have been experimenting with a lot of trucks, mods and so on. The game is becoming super "trolly" and forces gamers to go for low+ which is a shame. The Zikz605R is a beast, but I used a modded P512W today to haul in Chernokamensk and man that thing runs great. I have fuel all over the place and how now opened all obstacles. The amount of undercarriage damage is crazy, and I am not even going that fast. But switch to High gear and you seem to be hitting rocks where there are none.
Yeah there seems to be a certain speed where damage just happens too easily regardless of terrain. Been like that since day one. Bit of a pain.
Any chance of a Best trucks for Hard Mode? all too easy to get any truck you want in Normal, but in hard mode, you wont have the money for them until you've fully completed a Map
I've not played hard mode enough to work this out but I'd imagine I would focus on the Fleetstar, Tayga, 64131, 420 Tatarin and Cat 745C. Would give me the greatest chance of success I think!
@@ATribeCalledCars on my hard mode playthrough which ive restarted several times now from rolling or getting stuck all my starter vehicles ive decided to stick to roads and try to unlock the P16 early. The tayga im leaving for now due to the cost of garage deployments and repair trailer. Im trying to get through not wasting any money at all if poss. As getting more trucks is the most important thing as more trucks is more lives. I think the first truck i will buy will be Azov 64131. Thanks to your videos and testing. Cheers! :)
Where do you find the Taga
Russia (Taymyr), first map.
Am I the only one that likes the Voron Grad? If I need to haul that’s the truck I go for. But no one else seems to recommend it
Great truck.
It's actually one of my go to trucks I think its actually middle of the road at everything but has great versatility
for me the ol ix quadstear gets any job done and this time was no different.
0:20 "Tropical beaches"
Sandrunner when?
I'd love that so much.
the fact that the auto generated chapters name the tayga 6436 "tega 6436" is so funny
I think no one is close to Ziks 605r for next couple of months
thank youuuuuuu
also beamng ;)
Haha I guessed what might be at the end of this comment. Soon. Hopefully (crazy few weeks).
@@ATribeCalledCars ok.....
Afyer trying the new ZiKZ in the new region I still think the Kolob is the more powerfull truck... Proved me that yesterday tho.
Interesting, I find it slower. What platform are you on?
Ps4 mate
It might b a bit slower but its definitely a more powerfull truck
Me have watched this video and chose to ignore most of it with my established line up of trucks.
1. Caterpillar CT680
2. Freightliner 114SD
3. International HX520
4. International 5600ts
5. Derry Longhorn 3194
6. Westernstar 6900 Twinsteer
These will definitely work. I actually had the HX 520 and CT on my preliminary list but they do take a bit more effort to work in Amur. But always best people play the game as they want to! Meant to be fun and all that.
@@ATribeCalledCars Definitely.
That's a beautiful lineup.
@@rybuds47 Thanks, it has grown since I made this comment.
Do you buy some of that Bitcoin on the dip?
In my case the tayga, Voron A and regular azov anatartic mostly but if i need a rescue then out comes one of the jbe;s or the tweaked anatartic mod truck
(which I just tipped over trying to take a short cut lol)
Doesn’t work for me on ps4
I already installed all the mods
The cost is not 93, is 4k
Pls help me
Basically as long as it has 8 or more wheels ypur good to go in the frozen maps.
Seems like it!
Hi guys love the videos and I am enjoying snowrunner but I am looking for guys to jam with is there a community I can join
Hey there. Thanks for the kind words. I guess you could join the official SnowRunner Discord and/or mine, usually a fair few SnowRunners in these places.
Anyone else having problems with the winches, all the truck does is slide on its side along the ground and never tips back over
What was the red truck he was using in the intro part?
I’ve been using the other kolob because it doesn’t like getting as much as the first one
Hey Ben. I was just wondering what the mod is called from the trailer store when you were reviewing the kolob twins( the Antarctic trailers)
Off road trailers, life changer on Amur
i only have the 2 starter trucks and the normal pickup, is it doable with these cars?
It will be a slow slog, especially if you do not have decent upgrades such as mud tyres, raised suspension and better engines. I'd enjoy other maps first and build up the fleet and level.
@@ATribeCalledCars so what vehicle with which upgrades? thanks for the fast answer!
@@dunkenhunter167 Whatever truck you can upgrade to those upgrades as early as possible. The Tayga 6436 is a beast but will require a higher level to utilise. Dan 96320 also strong and available early on, CAT 745C for rescues. All not hard to get in the early days.
@@ATribeCalledCars Yeah, we are 3 people, should work i guess we rescuing etc. another question; Can you take the 605r to another map after you get him?
@@dunkenhunter167 Yes, all trucks can be used in any map. You just have to pack it in the garage (I forget the exact name), then swap map and unpack in the new garage location.
Why did I get 2 zikz 605r s for free when I bought season 3 and 4? They have a special turquoise and black camo color
So I'm the only one still using the Pacific P12 for everything on every map? Yeah? OK.
Another truck that came close, I enjoy using it. So I get the loyalty!
Zikz 605r is definitely the new baddest ass truck in the game!
I think without chain wheels you just cannot survive in Amur
They can certainly help, I just end up taking more snowy routes personally.
Ah yes the Tanga 69420F
I’m glad I made this a thing lol
It's immortalised!

@@The31ator I double dare you to make a video of snowrunner for your channel.
I was late to hop into the new maps. My first 90 seconds as follows: "oh a new scout, better fully upgrade it and get the watchtowers" leave garage, turn left, fall into a giant fucking crack in the ground. Shit. Side note, i couldnt "scout" a fucking thing with a scout on that map. Except the tatarin ofc. As for what I use, i use a small cluster of US military mod vehicles. One of them is the derry longhorn and its basically jesus on wheels.
Is that a truck in the sky? 0:43
A UFO Truck :))
Unidentified Fleetstar Object maybe.

@@derAbsurde 🤦
2:40 um about that actually flipped that kolob...
I hate that 90% of the trucks in the game are obsolete
Yes the tough maps really do limit what you can use. At least now you have mod trucks but I think some subtle buffs here and there would be cool.
DAN 96320 more offroad capable than the kolobs? You sir must be high.
The Kolobs always struggle for me, for some reason.
The kolobs, are stiff as an wooden wooden planks. The get's stuck really easy on rocks.
Dan has an more soft frame. Following the ground way better. When the kolobs just bounce around.
And then the chain tires.
This DLC is nearly impossible and makes a few KM trip take 30mins. That's fine, except when those portions are every few hundred meters, and worst-of-all, you can't catch a single good route, nothing for semi-trailers, next to nothing for regular trailers, and a whole lot of poorly placed stumps and obstacles that are clearly meant to throw a wrench in every cog possible. I would not recommend people buy this, unless they're skilled, patient, and looking for a sheer challenge throughout the entire map. I left the region after struggling for 3 days to even build the bridges. Not sure if I did something, or everything wrong, but I wish I could get a refund and warn others about this unexpectedly difficult DLC; this has ruined the game for me massively, wasting money sucks.

You have to learn these maps before you even play.
Learn & scout with the L400 mod..great on gas & tears up terrain faster than any other truck

You mean spintires renamed for the 3rd time cause they remove any mods that make it the way the community asks. Let mods through for people to try them only to rob the hard earned in game money. Only to add shitty non usable vehicles that only do the same thing. We call it snowrunner use Ice but never give you real spiked ice tires too put trees in the middle of roads

I see, but I don't even know what a season is. :D@@ATribeCalledCars
@@MarkNiceyard Ahh my apologies, I misunderstood. It's a DLC that contains a new area with two or four new maps, new trucks and sometimes other stuff too such as new stickers. Seasons can be bought separately or as a group of four as part of the year passes (there are three and a fourth is coming).
