- Biggest issue with this drive is the tires I have currently on the truck are useless in the snow and also the power divider was broken at the time of this video.

Key thing to remember, slow down in slick conditions, give yourself more time and remember to always watch out for the other drivers out there. People can't drive on dry pavement, let alone ice and snow.

Great job of handling the truck and compensating correctly and staying calm. THIS is precisely why every truck in America should have a CB.
Appreciate it!
I absolutely HATE driving in that kind of weather! I run back and forth between Manitowoc and WInona four days a week. In that January snowstorm, I made it to Plymouth and turned around, I pull a pneumatic tank and I was empty. I can feel the wind, but it doesn't push me around like it did when I was pulling a 53' sail!
It's not ME that I'm worried about - it might take me longer, but I'll get there - it's all the OTHER drivers that scare me!
You did a great job driving in the snow and wish more drivers were driving slower and using the CB to alert others behind you of what is happening ahead of them. You're being that good example of what a good driver can be. Keep it up !
Thanks man!
Great video brother. Stay safe out there!❤
Looks like just another day driving a truck here in Alaska. 😂
Haha ya I can imagine
I’m in Fond Du Lac right now and there’s no snow on the ground at all, I’m glad I missed it! Going up to St. Nazianz tomorrow morning to pick up a sprayer so I hope the snow holds off until I’m out of here. Safe travels!
Ya it’s all melted like it never happened
Nerves of steel, man- hope the freight/pay is worth it. Stay safe
The times I love being in a plow truck, scraping off the snow with the plow and putting out material to drive on. I hauled wood for a couple years and in snow storms and I couldn't keep up with the crazy frogs doing 70mph with 20 cord of wood on.
Have to be honest and say I only watched because the 389 is the coolest truck out there.
Keep up the consistent content !!
Thanks man I’m trying!
Ha...I remember in the mid 1970's when I started driving large trucks and the trucking company that I started driving for had mostly GMC 9500's and a lot of single axle Astro's. We called the Astro's, California tractors because they were higher than they were long, and I drove them through lots of snow and ice here in Ontario & Quebec.
I remember shortly after starting, I asked a older driver how fast should I drive in the bad weather and I remember him telling me "pick a speed your comfortable at and drive that speed." I took his advice and in my near 40 years driving career I never went off the road and I'll tell you it wasn't all skill, a lot of it was just sh!t luck.
Driving a Peterbuilt in snowy road is romantic so much 🥰🥰
I used to judge how bad it was by how much asphalt I could see. You can see
The asphalt so it's not so bad. It's bad and scary when all you can do is stay in tracks of the vehicles in front of you and there is no asphalt showing. That's when you start sucking that seat
Up for butt.
Hi 👋
That was a stessful day for sure. Got 2 stops done and my boss said go back and park it. Glad you got thru it tho. Safe travels
Glad to hear you got through it also! I actually didn’t even make it to the shop parked it overnight at holy hill because the freeway was shut down. Tried 175 and got stuck lol
@@TwistedTruckr As much as parking it can suck it sure beats needing a tow
@@jakebauer08 was my exact thoughts. Parked in truck parking safe and without tow

That snow storm is mild to what i drove in from montana to colorado yanking a cattle wagon loaded with cattle it got so bad i finally called it quits east of denver colorado till next morning. And then headed to i b p at garden city, kansas.and that snow storm had it blowing so bad could not see past the wind shield.
I believe it. We haven’t had one like that in many years here

There is one essential element to driving any vehicle well. You have to be one with your truck. You better be able to sense what is going on in your truck like you sense your hands or feet. IMO. that separates the real drivers from the wannabes. Funny how it is so seldom mentioned in driving literature.

Great driving skills! Is it possible to have all the tires siped at the tire shop? You would get a lot more traction.
I never felt it necessary to dump bags for hookup unless trailer was leaning to the side. Dropping a trailer with less air pressure is smoother but again, not necessary. bumping trl tires after hookup isnt a bad idea.
Hi 👋
Winter tires driver,I absolutely recommend them
Crappy day to be on the road
Be safe brother 🙏
Hi 👋
Always has to be that 1 guy! Thinks he's a super trucker!
I’ve always thought that there’s only two vehicles that look good yellow, corvettes and semi’s
Jeff
well done driver!
I know we’re supposed to be careful what we wish for and what not but, I would love to drive in that one day! 😺
I love snow driving but only with good tires not what I’m rocking on the semi lol
Nice saves
You should run out west then?We always have to chain up, I'm in oregon right now and last night I chained up twice for 2 different mountain passes. Slow and steady wins the race 😂
Man that’s crazy!
your a good driver, but the heck with that I would never drive in those conditions
Nice pre trip big dawg
Great video!! Terrible conditions, smooth driving and good advice on what not to do. slow and steady wins the race. Did you ever get new drive tires yet? Stay safe
Thanks man! Ya not yet they are great in dry conditions lol!
As bobtail blows your doors off 😂
Got any more videos coming man? Where ya been at.
Ya I’ve been slacking big time. I’ll try an knock one out next week. Changed company’s and such
I mean 32 degrees F is not that cold, and that was not a snowstorm. Its just snowing. Come to my parts of northern Québec, Canada if you ever want to see a real snowstorm... That being said, for an American you handled snowy roads pretty good. Most Americans I know crash when there's snowy roads, especially those form the southern parts of America.
A better camera angle would be nice,can’t see anything but dash lights.
with the way you kept turning your head and plus the fact it was hard to see the road i was just getting dizzy ,, be better if cam was on your dash,, just my two and half cents on it lol,,, other then that it was good to watch...
Was a bad ass load.
I just missed that crap in my brand new truck.
Nice vidéo
Dash mount your camera, it'll make for much nicer views

The video is two weeks old when I watch it but still I was nervous for you. Correction three weeks old
Hey I really like your profile picture and if you let me, I would make such an amazing mural out of it! If you don’t mind one of your post could be my inspiring muse for an art project i’m working on for a client. You will totally get paid for it as well as a bonus also get credits.
Winter driving sucks
More dashboard than window.
What he i snot doing is when he does get sucked in, he doesn't slow down. Slow down!
Scary no fun yes
Just a suggestion. Lose the helmet cam or whatever it is and get a dash cam. Can't hardly see anything.
Not to SMART
Hi 👋

Sorry ya I tried premier with that I can live chat when the video starts.
Wear those dirty gloves inside the truck. Rookie move.

@@EvelynLogan-od7zc yes?
@@usfholland11 were you from , howdy from the states?what social media you got?🤨
My wife told me …”well if he was advised to stay in place then why did he risk it ?”
So I answered….” I said he was gonna take his chances and I suppose 💰 probably had something to do with it.”
I was not advised to stay home or back, was asked to deliver the load for a driver that couldn’t the day prior. She’s right, wasn’t worth being out.
You have to change your old traktor to real machine.
The way you are reacting to things, and the way your driving. I think you need some more training in the snow..
I THINK YOU SHOULD GO FASTER
Stop yelling!
Guys plz dont use ur head camera , u r turning ur head left and right and shaken all the time and its not nice to watch 😊😊
