Ottawa Canada here, it was -28C and a wind chill of -40C this morning. I spent the last 5 hours getting all the equipment started for plowing snow. That's a task here that takes a half day when you have no heated shop. Also, -2C is tropical here. We pave asphalt at -2C here hahaha.
When I did a job in the Volvo dump truck factory, I’ve got to see the test drivers drifting fully loaded trucks on the test track. I was told they were testing the suspension, but it looked more like they were driving rally.
I watched this video with a smile on my face listening to you talk about the cold. Im in manitoba canada where we can get -45°c with windchill so what youve got is a nice day. Keep the videos coming though, i enjoy them all.
I live in west, ny, and I'm still not crazy about the cold, yet, as you and everyone else deal with. I kinda like it as I get used to it. I remember basic training, where some guys had never seen snow. Looking out the barracks one morning after a snow and seeing all the cars in the ditches. Then when I went to Ft. Campbell, KY, I'd be doing donuts in the parking lots. Now I'm jealous seeing you have fun in that truck. Thanks for sharing.
larsmark : Same with us in northern Utah during the winter. Gets pretty cold here and the only people who have the problem Chris had are the ones from out of state. He's a hoot though isn't he...
Heh heh heh - I was out at our landfill this last spring on March 1st...it was -27f with a -40f windchill. Trying to get our D8T and Cat compactor started after the previous Friday’s crew didn’t plug them in for the weekend. Hauled out the starting unit (400amp@24v and quick-connect heater hoses that plug into mating connectors on the machines engine blocks) and got em going after an hour.
Up here when it gets cold we have to heat the shit out of everything. We have magnetic heaters that we put on hydraulic fluid reservoirs, block heaters on everything, some oil pan heaters, and fuel tank heaters on the diesels. The fuel tank heaters allow us to run as cold as -40F. In December it was -30F and everything worked just fine if it was plugged in. We forgot to plug in one of the plows and the fluid looked like pudding. I met a logger that had an input and output for the coolant on his f250. He would hook his skidder to his truck and circulate warm water through the skidder. I honestly don't think this is good for his truck but its something that has been done. Hope your engines are handling it okay!
You are hilarious! You sound like me in these cold mornings. I'm a diesel mechanic so yeah it sucks working on frozen shit when it's balls cold outside. Lol im right down the road in Sumter SC and we still have snow on the ground here too. I love watching your videos though! Y'all crack me up! If you ever need help fixing something I'll be glad to help free of charge!
hey bud if you put an Anderson plug on the front of your truck and one on the pump you will not have to open your bonnet every time you use the fuel pump
LOL just saw this video and been some time since you posted! Past two weeks here negative 47 to negative 55. The first casualty my ford pickup battery and motor froze. The second was the semi window motor (2020 389 Peterbilt 389) window stuck down halfway. Third Airlines froze on semi-trailer breaks set at 60 mph ( I run a train, 13 axels. lots of burnt rubber, like $5,000 worth). Fourth getting home to warm up... furnace in house frozen no heat. Inside of my house 28 degrees. Next wake up and water pipes froze solid and burst. By the end of the first week, I and my dogs slept in my honda hrv in the driveway for heat. I got my semi window fixed after 4 days of running with it down. 10 days later they finally got my furnace going. 12 days after it started my pickup was thawed and I spent last weekend replumbing my entire house! So Chris stop your whining lol. best regards, Glen.
Came online this afternoon for some uplifting developments from you as I have come to expect and found this grumpy cold fed up chap I don't recognize at all lol Nothing wrong with a bit of cold - kills off all those bad bugs! Still fairly mild here in bonnie Scotland although we get our fair share of wild cold miserable weather in the winter. Chin up and keep going!!! PS A happy and prosperous New Year to you and yours.
So ahh curiosity question... Im from AUS and Ive operated stuff from excavators, loaders, dump trucks, skidsteers, forklifts, trucks, shredders, crushers... etc. Etc. The list really goes on... if i had an opportunity to move to the states... how would i go for work? Is it in abundance? Could i find all kinds of jobs everywhere? I need to know man... i wanna expand my horizons and learn EVERYTHING
At work we have the same problem with the fuel nozzles in the cold weather they stop working, its really frustrating when the truck is out of fuel and you have to haul for the day. Glad the weather is back to where its supposed to be aka above freezing and raining.
thought for sure you were going to tip it drifting then running back to the pond thought we were going swimming ,,did not think it was going to turn in time ..my old service van getting off the highway on a exit hit black ice ,, it turned at the last second ,,6 inches from hitting concrete .the ramp was all ice ,,that was the worst i have had ,,,
Hey Chris ! Time to put your big boy pants on( lol ) it's a balmy -18c not counting the wind chill up here in Nova Scotia Canada , perfect for snowmobiling !!
My father works in the oil clean up business and he always has a rubber piece attached to the frame of his truck to touch the ground and it keeps the static down.
I hear ya Chris this cold weather needs to go! It didn't get above 12 here in Missouri on Tuesday. Kinda shuts me down when the ground is frozen and everything takes longer or is more difficult
One of the good things about living in Puget Sound is the temp very rarely gets below 20 in the Winter or above 90 in the Summer. We do have to live with constant overcast and dampness, though.
This cold has also been treating us Alabamians poorly. Both air compressors froze up, the backhoe doesn't like to start below 40F, it also had a frozen up return hydro line and was just overflowing the reservoir and starved the pump, the brakes were frozen so bad one wheel was spinning on concrete and turning the damn machine in a circle before the other let go. The Isuzu wasn't doing right either. We just normally don't prepare for winters or our stuff isn't conditioned for winter and everything just breaks when this cold comes around.
Right on. I live in the SOUTH so I do not have to deal with the COLD. 6 inches of powder snow,,, -4 here this morning and have not topped out above 27 since Christmas. To heck with this mess.
I've been ice fishing on a lake in northern Alberta called Primrose Lake. (Canadian Air Force training area). With the wind chill it was -70' Celcius. But its so dry that you can deal with it in a jean jacket and a Mackinaw... Here on the Pacific coast. -1' Celcius chills you right to the bone with the high humidity!! It literally feels a hundred times colder at -1' Humid than at -70' Dry
Lol awesome Chris!! I was thinking take the damn handle off 30 seconds later cut to "I took the damn handle off" literally laughed out loud..... is it possible to put remote start in an excavator? I feel like if you run your checks and grease at shut down and it doesn't sit but overnight it won't hi old be worth it.
When it gets cold like this I usually have to stick a screwdriver in the handle of the automatic shut off won't let the fuel out try that.. I feel your pain I spent almost a whole day to get the lowboy truck started I feel like I need jumper cables coming out of my dam arms lol
Well we expect aprox -25c (-13f) wensday / thursday, this morning it is only -12c (10.4f). we also have aprox 1meter (3.28foot) of snowdepth.daily roundtrip to work is 225km (140 miles) really hope the ec210 wont give me trouble. Cheers from Sweden. :-)
If it happens to you again there is a small hole in the side of your diesel spout close to the tip that gets stopped up with ice or dirt that causes that problem. when anything such as fuel or ice hits it the nozzle will kick off.
When I was growing up I was thought to share so here you go just being nice haha the weather is above zero for the second day in a week and a half. Keep up the great video's
We were in the -38 at night and -33 during the day.... for a week. But 11 F is like a heat wave! We are at about 16F now... so warm... but back to the deepfreeze later this week
I like to tell you it’s worse in maine where I live. Been cold for weeks. Below zero. And the wind. Tho I’m not too sad until it gets to like -15 or so.
Jason Jordan no joke I haven't gone to haul my traps sence before Xmas it's been so cold I'm not like the bigger boats with a split wheelhouse and my boat is froze up
Yesterday it was -35 here so I chuckle to myself when I hear you say it's cold in north C. -7 .morale to this is I wish I was in your part of the world
I love this channel..it's simple and entertaining,but I can't figure one thing out. Do you not like the cold? Lol! Thank you for sharing. Take care. Try to stay warm.
I was trying to geocache in NC this week and froze my a** off. Gave up yesterday morning with 5 degrees and wind to deal with. Got back to Texas last night and it was 59 degrees. You can have it LOL
We're in kentucky and feel your pain. Left water dripping in house so we wouldn't have froze pipes, just to have utility company shut off main to fix a leak and said it would be an hour. 8hrs later water come back on street but not in house!!!
I hate cold weather, it has been around -5F here in Ithaca New York. I can' t get anything done outdoors. Friends in Sydney Australia have another problem: *It was 117F today* , that's freaking HOT!! The roads there are melting!
The first minute sums up exactly EVERYTHING that sucks ass about winter. I just unsuccessfully fought a battle trying to get some stuff done, only to have the cold thwart my every effort. WINTER SUCKS!
Northerners love to give us southerners hell for cold weather but it’s not like they can handle our 100-115F in Dallas Texas where i am. Every damn day in July and August is between 95-115F
It's amazing and interesting how relative cold and heat is to us humans. I'd die in 100F weather and the cold in this video would be a warm day in my area. I guess we just get used to whatever climate we're in. Nice thing about the cold is equipment has more power! PS don't walk on that ice, it's nowhere close to thick enough.
I loved your video today and I split a gut laughing. Please remember that Diesel engines do not warm up while idling. Just idle for a short time to get some heat going and then start working a little slow and you have it. Better to work in the cold the mud is frozen. After a week of -40 weather your 11 degrees is a summer heat wave. I enjoy your videos please them coming
Strangefruit diesel is a cold running fuel. I drive school bus with a Diesel engine and I have a blanket in front of the radiator to keep the heat that is generated. In the winter I would like a gas engine as it produces more heat
Ottawa Canada here, it was -28C and a wind chill of -40C this morning. I spent the last 5 hours getting all the equipment started for plowing snow. That's a task here that takes a half day when you have no heated shop. Also, -2C is tropical here. We pave asphalt at -2C here hahaha.

Almost peed myself laughing at you.
Absolutely love your videos even if I am playing catch up.
I live in west, ny, and I'm still not crazy about the cold, yet, as you and everyone else deal with. I kinda like it as I get used to it. I remember basic training, where some guys had never seen snow. Looking out the barracks one morning after a snow and seeing all the cars in the ditches. Then when I went to Ft.

The whole south was in a deep freeze!! You guys aren’t used to that!!
- 2 degrees this morning here,no wind it felt like a heat wave!!
Woke up to -10 in Vermont
No way in hell id live up north ill stay down here in South Carolina
-15 here without windchills the past few days. feels like summer!
Swedes know how to build stuff that works properly in the cold 😁 I agree with you about the cold.
larsmark : Same with us in northern Utah during the winter. Gets pretty cold here and the only people who have the problem Chris had are the ones from out of state. He's a hoot though isn't he...
And the dump truck is a Swedish invention from 1966.
Sitting here in north eastern Ontario at -30°F I’m laughing my ass off at you. Lol I think you get funnier the colder it gets Chris.
HAHAHA YUP! :D
Sorry for your troubles there man, I'm close to turning on the air conditioning, 84 degrees where I'm at ! 😎
Thanks for sharing and take care. 👍
😂I love you 😂 we do cold up north, hate it just the same! But it's great hearing your frustration😂
Lol this one made me laugh out loud. Reminded me of my brother in law. He hates snow and cold weather 🤣🤣🤣
Heh heh heh - I was out at our landfill this last spring on March 1st...it was -27f with a -40f windchill. Trying to get our D8T and Cat compactor started after the previous Friday’s crew didn’t plug them in for the weekend. Hauled out the starting unit (400amp@24v and quick-connect heater hoses that plug into mating connectors on the machines engine blocks) and got em going after an hour.

The fuel tank heaters allow us to run as cold as -40F. In December it was -30F and everything worked just fine if it was plugged in. We forgot to plug in one of the plows and the fluid looked like pudding.
I met a logger that had an input and output for the coolant on his f250. He would hook his skidder to his truck and circulate warm water through the skidder. I honestly don't think this is good for his truck but its something that has been done. Hope your engines are handling it okay!
Never have I seen Chris so frustrated. 🤣
Monitor 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
So is thet one o dem suthern trucks whut dey fergot ta put a heater in?
You are hilarious! You sound like me in these cold mornings. I'm a diesel mechanic so yeah it sucks working on frozen shit when it's balls cold outside. Lol im right down the road in Sumter SC and we still have snow on the ground here too. I love watching your videos though! Y'all crack me up!

Nerve a dull moment , that's freaking country life . Murphy's law !!
hey bud
if you put an Anderson plug on the front of your truck and one on the pump you will not have to open your bonnet every time you use the fuel pump
Also, I love how pickup guys pride themselves on their truck smoking and HEO's pride themselves on their machines not.
LOL just saw this video and been some time since you posted! Past two weeks here negative 47 to negative 55. The first casualty my ford pickup battery and motor froze.

NickyBoii96 I
Yep, gawd-awfull cold up here in Warren county. Froze the well pipe and a bunch of water lines under the house, including a Hot water line.!
At work we have the same problem with the fuel nozzles in the cold weather they stop working, its really frustrating when the truck is out of fuel and you have to haul for the day. Glad the weather is back to where its supposed to be aka above freezing and raining.

Oh you poor cold guy. Iowa we’re used to it. LOL was in San Antonio 2 weeks ago at 77 followed by 40’s and they sounded like you. Just think spring.
😂😂😂😂😂 It is such a feeling of relief to see someone else having difficulties. We are all human.
He said every damn thing frozen, woke up didn't have any water this morning. 😄😄
Chris I'm in Robeson Co NC and we still got snow on the ground from Wednesday. Work for the RR and freezing my a$$ OFF.
Christopher Hammonds we still have snow on the ground also here around Charleston SC lol
Tracey Gatlin as the old saying goes, I think it might be waiting on some more. I think we got about 4in here.
We use to run stove oil years ago in eqpment burn hotter for the winter season ! Don't think the new diesels would like that
Hey Chris ! Time to put your big boy pants on( lol ) it's a balmy -18c not counting the wind chill up here in Nova Scotia Canada , perfect for snowmobiling !!
My father works in the oil clean up business and he always has a rubber piece attached to the frame of his truck to touch the ground and it keeps the static down.
Haul truck drifting! Absolutely epic!
I hear ya Chris this cold weather needs to go! It didn't get above 12 here in Missouri on Tuesday. Kinda shuts me down when the ground is frozen and everything takes longer or is more difficult
You are a Pansy if he can't handle the cold move to another state I'm just north of Kansas City and I enjoy the weather here
One of the good things about living in Puget Sound is the temp very rarely gets below 20 in the Winter or above 90 in the Summer. We do have to live with constant overcast and dampness, though.

What’s up with your steering wheel in the haul truck, looks like your been playing darts.
was like what when i got it.. didnt have a radio in it either so I wouldnt rule that out
Was -18 here a few nights back. Been crazy weather. Nice drifting lol.
I've had that problem before with auto shut off fuel nozzles. Usually heat fixes them but when it doesn't, time for a new nozzle.
Right on. I live in the SOUTH so I do not have to deal with the COLD. 6 inches of powder snow,,, -4 here this morning and have not topped out above 27 since Christmas. To heck with this mess.
should have called me, man. I would be dumping and you digging. I've always wanted to drift a dump truck of that caliber.
Cheers from Louisiana.
I've been ice fishing on a lake in northern Alberta called Primrose Lake. (Canadian Air Force training area). With the wind chill it was -70' Celcius.

Exactly why we love Florida👊🏻😊😊😊
My name is an-an-an and i wil go to the and. My name is an-an-an-an and i will go to the ann.
Lol awesome Chris!! I was thinking take the damn handle off 30 seconds later cut to "I took the damn handle off" literally laughed out loud..... is it possible to put remote start in an excavator? I feel like if you run your checks and grease at shut down and it doesn't sit but overnight it won't hi old be worth it.
How much did you charge for that job ?
Up here in Minnesota all week we where -30 northern Minnesota hit -63 with wind chill
😂 😂 you are cracking me up Chris
Hell yeah I hate damn winter. That icy wind blowed up here in Hickory NC all day Tuesday!
Was -45 wind chill on new years eve here in N.MN and -30 wind chill for the past month at night
When it gets cold like this I usually have to stick a screwdriver in the handle of the automatic shut off won't let the fuel out try that.. I feel your pain I spent almost a whole day to get the lowboy truck started I feel like I need jumper cables coming out of my dam arms lol
My maturity leaves in a fraction of a second when I get to drift! Even if I have a passenger on the truck I can't resist!
We run the same eqpment here in Canada I don't think glow plugs are optional eqpment .Block heater is prob optional though
Well we expect aprox -25c (-13f) wensday / thursday, this morning it is only -12c (10.4f). we also have aprox 1meter (3.28foot) of snowdepth.daily roundtrip to work is 225km (140 miles) really hope the ec210 wont give me trouble. Cheers from Sweden. :-)
Florida has good weather and you can make a lot of money here with your equipment👊🏻😊👊🏻
Maybe you have to build a little heated shed for the gas nozzle. Up here in Jersey with the wind it has been below zero
Welcome to our world in Northern Missouri. We drive by the courthouse and see lawyers with their hands in there own pockets. Now that’s cold.
Any problems gelling up? All the auto part places up here are all out of 911. We've been cutting everything with additional kerosene
Over here in maryland its been getting to around 8 or 9 in the day with - 10 wind chill
Cure for froze nozzle is to get a bottle of dry gas hold nozzle up rite and pore in 3 or 4 oz in a few seconds put the nozzle in tank and pump.
Very cold start on a sunday Chris, fuel problems, excavator and rocktruck nice cold start, have a nice day Letsdig, you are a funny guy 😲💥😲💥😲💥😲💥💥😲💥😲💥
If it happens to you again there is a small hole in the side of your diesel spout close to the tip that gets stopped up with ice or dirt that causes that problem. when anything such as fuel or ice hits it the nozzle will kick off.
Good job Chris. That's wanting to work working on a day like that.
Like pjexc says, it's -40C / -40F in Canada. You have sunbathing weather right now.
Terry Barber only -23C in Ontario
Sicktrickintuner it was only -47C here in Alberta
Minus 15 degrees in New Hampshire, Jan-7 at 6 am, not including wind-chill -- truck outside started no problem.
what size is your excavator ? it reminds me of the cat excavator i use to use.
We didn't get no Snow here in Western North Carolina just Cold AF!! The Windchill was -11 the other eve.Too Cold for me
Sometimes if those auto nozzles won’t come on you can hold the back of the lever down while you pull up on the front and they will work.
Ain't no warmer in South Carolina either. Piss in this cold weather hell 50 degrees would be better than it staying below freezing all day.
Where you located?
Dad....about the haul truck.......lol
Have a GREAT 2018 Chris!!
should come over here been 2 weeks it'S -25 to -35 deg celcius , equipment not plugged for the night won't start for shit
Lmao. Cold does suck. Up here in new england its a fight in the winter... Love the videos. Been watching for a very long time now.
When I was growing up I was thought to share so here you go just being nice haha the weather is above zero for the second day in a week and a half. Keep up the great video's
Just to dam funny for your own good. Thanks Chis you made me lol for real.
Was +47.2 deg C in Penrith NSW yesterday , lucky i don't live there.
It's cold in the south too bro. Time for the Caribbean. Lol
We were in the -38 at night and -33 during the day.... for a week. But 11 F is like a heat wave! We are at about 16F now... so warm... but back to the deepfreeze later this week
I like to tell you it’s worse in maine where I live. Been cold for weeks. Below zero. And the wind. Tho I’m not too sad until it gets to like -15 or so.
Jason Jordan no joke I haven't gone to haul my traps sence before Xmas it's been so cold I'm not like the bigger boats with a split wheelhouse and my boat is froze up
it's all fun and games until the dump bed tips into the hole and you gotta walk all the way back to the excavator lol
Yesterday it was -35 here so I chuckle to myself when I hear you say it's cold in north C. -7 .morale to this is I wish I was in your part of the world
I love this channel..it's simple and entertaining,but I can't figure one thing out. Do you not like the cold? Lol! Thank you for sharing. Take care. Try to stay warm.
I was trying to geocache in NC this week and froze my a** off. Gave up yesterday morning with 5 degrees and wind to deal with. Got back to Texas last night and it was 59 degrees. You can have it LOL
We're in kentucky and feel your pain. Left water dripping in house so we wouldn't have froze pipes, just to have utility company shut off main to fix a leak and said it would be an hour. 8hrs later water come back on street but not in house!!!
mines been frozen every morning. pain in the ass
It says a lot about your equipment that it starts right up when it's extremely cold, and not used to that. Well maintained.
I hate cold weather, it has been around -5F here in Ithaca New York. I can' t get anything done outdoors. Friends in Sydney Australia have another problem: *It was 117F today* , that's freaking HOT!! The roads there are melting!
Man all these people complaining about you complainin. I personally think it's a great coping mechanism. Stay warm man!
It must be fun operating all that machinery haha
No surprice that Volvos do a decent coldstart....in Sweden, in the wintertime, it´s often below 0 degrees F
You’re welcome, from Michigan. Cold hugs.
-8 F warm degrees. Brrrrrrrrrrrh
where's this video taken at
The first minute sums up exactly EVERYTHING that sucks ass about winter. I just unsuccessfully fought a battle trying to get some stuff done, only to have the cold thwart my every effort. WINTER SUCKS!
Awesome video ! And people said it's impossible to drift a big truck like yours ...😉👍
The feels like temperature here in Western PA this morning was -25. Lol. I don't like it this cold either.
Northerners love to give us southerners hell for cold weather but it’s not like they can handle our 100-115F in Dallas Texas where i am. Every damn day in July and August is between 95-115F
WesleyAPEX I’m from the north and I can handle 115 degrees
Come to Australia mate where its 52 or normally 45 46 degrees every day in summer thats about 120 125 farenhite
Down in Houston it’s worst
Same that’s my city and I love the heat
I’d take that heat any day, the cold is harder to adapt to. Warm winters make people soft
It's amazing and interesting how relative cold and heat is to us humans. I'd die in 100F weather and the cold in this video would be a warm day in my area. I guess we just get used to whatever climate we're in. Nice thing about the cold is equipment has more power! PS don't walk on that ice, it's nowhere close to thick enough.
Where are you from buddy?
I cannot stand the cold either. I live in SC on the coast and it has been very bad down here.
Whats with the race car sound effects every time you get in old betsy? its a laugh every time. You like her way too much haha sweet drift too
Had one with 18,000 hours never gave any problems starting bar a diesel leak one time
I loved your video today and I split a gut laughing. Please remember that Diesel engines do not warm up while idling. Just idle for a short time to get some heat going and then start working a little slow and you have it. Better to work in the cold the mud is frozen.
After a week of -40 weather your 11 degrees is a summer heat wave. I enjoy your videos please them coming
Norman Dyck how do Diesel engines not warm up while idling?
Strangefruit diesel is a cold running fuel. I drive school bus with a Diesel engine and I have a blanket in front of the radiator to keep the heat that is generated. In the winter I would like a gas engine as it produces more heat
It's call add winter blend additives to your diesel. It will keep it from gelling
