Project #GreenGo is a go.
In this episode, we take it out on 2 different days, best way to spend Thanksgiving morning while one works up an appetite for the holiday dinner, and than on day 2 - go out and burn up those calories running around in the deep snow!
Enjoy the video!
BEAST MODE!!!!!! It's pretty amazing that the little motor gets through all of that. Lots of work for it.
beauty of a diesel torque
Glad to see people other than Canadians enjoying the 'SNOW " Love winter !!
Oh, I love it... :)
Great video. It's cool switching back between you language and English, snow wheeling has no barriers . Looks like a blast, keep it up and b safe👍🏻🇺🇸
Thanks
Хороший снегоход👍
выполняет свою работу! :)
Шустролапый получился ! 👍 хорошо валит
да; может когда хочет
OMG sooooo really amazing beautiful mountains
Thanks
Sure does blaze a nice trail ! Winter camping is so much fun !
even more fun it should be with this now :)
Ник, отлично подготовился к зиме! Аппарат то что надо!
зима обещает быть веселой, вроде :)
Awesome
Cheers
Nice looks so fun man. I am waiting though for your Olallie Lake run hope to maybe see some Jeep Chetokee XJ making that trip 🙂 Thanks for the time you put into filming this amazing footage and editing it just as well👍
One day all possible! Thanks for your support!
That's awesome
Yes sir!
Nice!
was great
man that view at the lake! I'm dying to do some snow camping
Winter sunsets are unique for sure
Thing is a beast 💪
sure seems that way... this winter season will test it well
Hey bud so beautiful up there glad you're sharing these with me never been up that high before, if you would have had a snow plow on there anybody could have went up there huh keep up the great work cheers brother
It would take a lot to plow that out of the way
If everybody and their mom can get there on plowed road , place will be overcrowded . Меньше народу - больше кислороду .
С новым годом !
I guess it wouldn't be so special if everybody could get there although a lot of people cannot afford those types of vehicles at least we can see everything through your videos and that should be good enough I guess cheers brothers and happy New Years
I love this machine. I have a chance to buy one but they want $19,000 for it. Not heap for sure but hard to find so thinking about it. It's a 2008 model with 800 hours on it..That seems to be alot.
Not a lot; great price considering tires/tracks that it would have
The Snow Fairy Godmother sent her blessing
apparently :)
Nik Thanks for Sharing this Video. Nice Project (Argo Centaur). .....BTW You need a Snow Plow Insuranse.
Thanks.
very cool 👍✨🚙🏔 nice car 💥
:)
Bud, it would be nice if you could talk about what your projects cost you from buying the old rigs, to fixing them up, to finish. I would love to have one but it may never happen because of the costs.
Its a topic of discussion, yet I prefer to keep it to myself. I think that sorta information is like "secrets of craftsmanship & business". Deals that I find only pertain to me and lying to someone that they can build a cat for under $5k would be like offering classes on how to make millions flipping houses (not everyone will/can/able to do).
With that said, you can know the costs when you see me put in on sale :)
If a man can build things, than he just has to find that "deal" and put his elbow grease into it. Everyone values their time differently
ЭЭЭхх , красотааа, ляпотаа )))
пушок :)
Пора тебе списанный Boeing CH-47 Chinook брать, ремонтировать.... и по озерам на рыбалку толпой😁, контент будет на несколько миллионов подписчиков😉
еще бы кто нить проспонсировал... :) :) :)
hi my friends 👍 super

Шикарные виды, и самый лучший для катания мягкий и пушистый снег. Кстати по поводу снега, у нас зачастую после снегопада приходит небольшая оттепель и затем мороз. Весь мягкий снежок покрывается довольно жестким слоем наста по которому ехать крайне сложно ибо колеса проваливаются в нижний мягкий слой а брюхо висит на этом слое наста. У вас там такого не случается? а то как ни посмотрю снег всегда просто идеальный)
идеальный т.к. только в "идеальный" катаю... у нас потепления всегда; как и морозы... но в горах где снег; температура +5 до -10 в среднем и снега сыпет иногда метрами в полном смысле слова
Класс!!!Такое ощущение что стоит какой то расширитель гусянки?
Заводские гусеницы широкой версии
Шикарно
как есть :)
I’ve been watch all your videos lately, consuming lots of RUclips content on tracked snow vehicles.
You’ve had a variety… which one is the one that you’ve liked the best?
Tucker has been the great machine, Argo unit was best reconnaissance version, SuperImp 1450 favorite restomod… 🙏🤦♂️🤔😉

I too like the idea of the Argo centaur, narrow enough for two and more benches or cargo in the back. I want a higher under belly, I am leaning to a scratch build with hydraulic drive.
Did you guys or anyone in your crew happen upon an abandoned utility trailer on the main road with camping gear just down the way from camp 10 towards the cabins? The fringes of the bomb cyclone nailed us 2 days before Thanksgiving while we were camping and the snow drifts overwhelmed us trying to get out of there. It was a difficult decision to leave things behind, not sure if anyone was passing through to break trail. A sno-cat was called in to pull us out. Anyway whoever retrieved the trailer is welcome to it, but if I could get some gear back it would be appreciated. Love your vids!
I came in from the other side and did not go as far as you are describing.
Havent heard of anyone talking about any trailer within my circle of acquantences. Please be wiser next time, conditions in that area are very unforgiving, cause for closures are exactly that reason as you described above! Glad to hear you guys made it out safely.
Amaxingly snow capable in the snow. Was surprised by the speed. What happened to the Tucker you were working on?
nothing happened with Tucker as of yet, havent had the time. In process of getting ready for engine install.
Gorgeous machine! Thanks for the vid! These forests are near Olallie Lake?
Yes
Are those custom tracks? Or are they wider tracks you can purchase for an Argo? Do you consider the Argo to be a pretty capable cat? You do an amazing job building/restoring cats to man. Thank you for sharing!
They are original Argo wide tracks as far as I'm aware,
Thanks
What kink of Track are those? They look home made. It also looks like you are running some type of street golf cart tire?????
Those are Argo's factory offered tracks (at time of production), and "turf" kind of tires, specifically used with those tracks.
Thanks for the comment, I have never seen them before.
Depends on how long you been involved with Argo 🤷♂️
@@budnixon I am on my 5th Argo, my current machine is an Aurora 950 SX with Adair tracks
That trailer is way to light for that machine.
Did you see it bend like a banana while loading
It’s fine
Machine is only 1,5t so it’s good
Виды шикарные просто! Отличный контент👍 это штат Юта?
это шт. Орегон
@@budnixon Как место называется?
Where is the deep snow?
Always in the high mountains 😉
Deep snow my ass!
not deep enough
С каких пор у ARGO средняя компоновка двигателя?
С давних… но только у Кентавра
Do you think this is your favorite snow vehicle yet ?
might be :)
@@budnixon I look forward to your mods that you spoke of in the other walk around video. Wish you lots of snow and trail exploring.
Watch at 1:59 that thing bent the trailer. 😲
Trailer didn’t get bent, still used just fine 😉
А где катаетесь что за окрестности?
штат Орегон... возле горы Худ
@@budnixon прекрасные места . Смотрю другие ролики на вашем канале, видео огонь 🤗. Сами тоже в Орегоне живёте?

Sure it’s fun to drive not fun to watch though. The Jeep vids were fun.
To each his own :) q
Whatever. I enjoyed it. Thanks.
The problem I have with your vidio is there are pickup tire tracks in your deep snow wtf lol that's not deep
It helps watching the full video 😉👍🏻
I have this same rig and know their capabilities and weaknesses, and actual deep snow over about a foot and a half and any actual hill and it just starts digging,and spinning,and in sand it just dies the same thing,and theses argos don't even float they sink in water above 26 inches deep,make a vidieo running in 30 inches of snow up hill ,you'll see it goes no where
@@rayshowalter3531 is it about the driver/operator?! I’ve ran the Centaur in snow as deep as 8ft around mt. Hood here in Oregon, yes, breaking any trail is done in Low gear ONLY, but I’ve gone places where my snowmobiling buddies doubted I could follow them, while riders on the top rack were getting ready to bail. In my opinion it’s a very capable and agile rig, diesel provided plenty of power yet was very efficient on fuel, never gave me any reason not to like it. Sure it can’t beat my Tucker’s comfort and overall options, but not many other cats can.
Having owned argos I have found them to be useless. No ground clearance get stuck everywhere. Now they're NEW ??? COPIED FROM RUSSIAN MODEL.. if ARGO DID any engineering I would run away from it.
