@ATribeCalledCars, you can put the Tayga King Mud Tires on the ANK MK38, and that's what I mainly run on the truck, with the acception of Running the Dually Chained Tires for maps such as the set of maps based in Amur, Russia because of that steep icy hill you have to conquer shortly after you leave the garage in the first of the Amur, Russia maps.
Gotta agree with the YAR 87 but it's wicked tippy. I found the Paystar 5070 and the Caterpillar CT680 to be workhorses. I'm a truck driver by trade and have driven many different civilian and military trucks.
@@catnipkiller Mines bugged too. If I dump the contents of the trailer while the cargo is still packed, no matter where the cargo is on the map, or the trailer, the trailer recognizes it as being in the back still so when I try to load it back on, it falls thru the trailer. I've even tried to load that same cargo on other trailers then go BACK to the one I lost it with, and I still get the option to remove it even though it's on another truck and trailer. Then the cargo floats at the top of the map sometimes too and can be seen on the map way above everything else.
I personally started putting the high range gearboxes in most my trucks cause, with the Voron AE for example, you start off in Automatic, get going and literally half a second or a second after you get going in 1st gear you drop it into H(igh) and it’s GONE! I haul trailers or loaded flatbeds etc. Uphills at almost max speed and people just stare in amazement and ask “how you do dat doe...?”. Give it a try, y’all won’t be disappointed! Btw, just saw you say how the Azov is slow, bruh, put the highrange gearbox in that and it becomes a speed demon! I use the other Azov tho so maybe it’s faster.
Been doing this since I first discovered it!!! I love when the mud makes that unique sound like it didn’t have time to catch up with the speed at which you went through it?!?!
Interestingly enough, my favorite part about this video is how you point out how do-it-all trucks get boring. Because I agree with that. Unless there's an actual time limit, i see no reason to go with the trucks that make things easy and fast.
@@ATribeCalledCars Exactly. And, the longer runs give you MUCH more time to get a feel for the trucks, to definitively find out what works where and what you simply do and don't like. At least, that's what I do in SpinTires and MudRunner. I'm personally still waiting and hoping this'll come to Steam at the end of April.
Great review, I agree with you 100% on the Tayga. When you have a minute, check out the snub-nosed Derry Longhorn. It's a heavy truck capable of pulling the biggest loads, but is very capable off-road with eight wheels and the front and rear steering tires makes it have a VERY sharp turning radius. Makes it much easier to get in and out of places and control unwieldy trailers.
Yo man I agree my fave is the tux 420 tatrain it's a bit slow tho ha ha I know this sounds sketchy but what's you psn (if you have a ps4)s we can play together 😁
Love it. This had me SOOO pissed off trying to get it started and figured out, everyone told me this was much better then mudrunner but I never got to deep into mudrunner. After watching 2 videos of yours, I'm set and know what I need and how to get it. Thanks !
Let's also remember, or be informed of, the fact that the Caterpillar's Container attachment can actually haul up to 2 points worth of other cargo. Which is basically everything other than large containers and specialty cargo.
The Cat CT680 has been my go-to hauler for just about everything after upgrades. 2nd biggest motor has plenty of power while still retaining some fuel economy and you can add pretty much every type of add-on to it. Before that, it was the White-Western Star because who doesnt love an old beast of a truck?
I've had the most fun recently with the Western Star Twinsteer, jumping into coop and shipping cargo to the guy's garage to help out. That thing with the highrange gearbox is OBSCENE. Zooming back and forth like a fucking rocket! The sense of momentum is hilarious to me, blazing down the highway at ~1000mph with a full bed of cargo. Love it :)
@@ATribeCalledCars Do you mean on this game in general? I HIGHLY recommend the HIGH-RANGE gearboxes :) Between the 3 additional high gears in Auto, plus the fixed High gear, you can maintain much greater speeds. Downsides are the fuel consumption, and the lack of low gear options for the trickiest of terrain.
I love the Caterpillar CT680. S+ power. Decent fuel efficiency. Decent fuel tank size. Solid truck. Twinsteer 6900 is also pretty good upgraded when you want 4 cargo slots but don't want to use a trailer. P12 is my favorite recovery truck. One of the only 2 trucks that can use the large maintenance frame. You also should've mentioned VORON D 53233. Almost a carbon copy of the Voron AE but its raised suspension upgrade is available. It has slightly less power to weight but has 20 liters more fuel capacity. Regardless, pretty much every truck in this game is perfectly usable once upgraded. Tires make a huge difference.
I used the Tatarin to pull the "stuck truck" that went off the side of the cliff in the second or third snow map, that thing is a beast. Also it can't attach trailers but it can tow them just fine as part of a mission, I've used it many times to deliver scout and truck sized trailers
I also used the tatarin to get the truck out but it suffered on traction on the road because mudtires on ice roads is a recipe for disaster, so once i pull out the stuck truck into a little hill which the tuz tatarin could not get over, i called my other truck and hauled it to the garage
I've just started playing this game and got told to buy the voron d straight away that thing shreds through everything in Michigan. Really enjoying this game, not enjoyed a game this much since red dead redemption 2
For me the best scout is the International Loadstar. Even when its wheels are too small or it's not tall enough for certain terrain, this beast has so much power it just takes some damage and plows through anyways. Plus it has a very appealing retro look.
Same, I Got The Game A Few Days A Go And Played Half Way Through Michigan And Alaska And When I Went To Russia I Found The Tayga And I Love It, One Of My Favorite Vehicles, After I Get Half Way Through Russia I'll Go Back To Michigan, Then To Alaska, Then Back To Where I Am Now
Best scout by far is KHAN 39. Some might argue it's OP. Also my favorite off-road truck is International Paystar. Almost as awesome as the ANK MK 38 but can have crane and flatbed and a trailer. And is the first truck I ever got from the store.
Yes used the tayga for a while. Then got your number two. First thing i noticed was it was quite a bit slower than the tayga. So i certainly agree with what you said.
I personally love the Azov one which is on Second position in your video. It made lof of missions easy for me till the time. I sold 3 trucks from Black River to get it.
I started playing Mud Runner again after initially not liking it a couple years back and now I'm loving every minute of it. Can't wait to pick up Snow Runner now.
Same, put the chrome stacks and the visor on it and its killer sweet, but i put the lift kit on it and it has a hard time steering with any kind of trailer
@@EpicRaph well that starting international is a work horse i played through majority of the game with that as my primary its alittle tricky on climbs but once its figured out it does the job
Hammer is definitely good at this game. I also liked Soviet and Russian transport very much. In General, most of the KAMAZ trucks and armored car are simply gorgeous.
The Loadstar is my go to. I named mine Rowdy. Wide wheel base low center of gravity means no more worrying about tipping. I've upgraded everything on it and now all I gotta worry about when i fire it up is hanging on.
@@ATribeCalledCars Just put a liftkit and big tires on it and it will never let you down. And its fast with the right gearing. Try jumping the Airfield in Alaska. I reached far into the Water with it. All other barely reached the water.
I agree so much with your #1. Plus the fact that you can recover it a the really beginning of the drowned lands. Only lvl 10 here and explored all the russian map with the AT tires and it does it like a champ. Note that it is better with 10 wheels instead of 6 when it’s time to chose rubbers. But, Did not tested the big offroad ones yet.
The Number 1 truck for me is the Zik-605R! It doesn't easily tip and can get through extremely rough mud, snow, and ice very easily where other trucks can't and it looks bad ass!
So many lovely vehicles. Never played anything like this game but I'm having trailers of fun! Glad the P16 got a mention. So damn stable and reliable for mammoth tasks.
Game's WAY too good man xD Only thing that's dead annoying is when cargo drops through your vehicle/trailer. And I wanted to transport my scout on a big trailer but I could not 'Pack' the load. Damn.
I personally like the KRS 58 "Bandit". It can hold a sideboard/flatbed and a crane at the same time, and while it flips over easier without the correct tires, the lifted suspension kit and some 51" AMHS I Mudtires makes it a beast.
Thanks for the tip. I hated this truck because of how much it tipped over with the crane. I don't think there's a suspension upgrade for it but the tires were enough to make it through an area that I couldn't get past before.
Problem with Bandit is weight distribution, as all weight is at front. Added fact front axles are wider than rear ones makes it feel like nosediving into mud which is pretty bad. Once you place some cargo on it, it behaves way better as it ballance out. Having no problem with tipping over, really. Caution advised but its not so bad. There are worse trucks in that regard. Only exception is crane loading/unloading as anchors arent wide enough and truck's light weight makes it tip easilly if you try lift cargo too far from the truck centre. Still, best truck for hard mode missions. It just need bit of skill and patience.
It gets a little rough to use in russia. It doesnt need much power for the other maps but it starts to struggle in the muddy hills of russia. Still love the thing but I ended up going with the dan more just for the power
The ANK and the Tayga are the two most versatile trucks with speed in the game. I have both of mine upgraded to the max with the best engine options and mud tires available for both and have yet to get stuck in either truck. Anywhere, they’ve walked everywhere, the only thing holding the ANK back is lack of many frame addons, but it will still drag a trailer and heavy cargo in the bed anywhere, just have a fuel truck on stand by if you don’t wish to recover after every mission. The Tayga is beast, I use the crane add on and a side board flat bed everywhere I go with it. I unlocked it and all it’s addons before I did anything noteworthy in any of the maps. And it’s nonstop balls to the walls everywhere. Got me all the way through Michigan. I sold the Twin Steer and purchased the p12 and upgraded it to the max as well. The P16 and P12 if you can handle their slow nature are the two best trucks for all the heavy trailered mission, and refuse to get stuck anywhere, even in Alaska leaving the dreaded Port through what is probably the worst stretch of mud so far in the game.
It's hard to get stuck in either, whereas my Voron Grad with a trailer can be annoying! Had to redo a long mission because of it. I need to use the P12 more, that's today's mission. I'm hoping to make videos about every truck but we shall see.
This game is well worth its money.the trucks I've got so far are. GMC. International including scout, Chevrolet CK 1500 pickup truck. But now got to rescue it out of flood in Michigan.
Nice work. The ANK was a huge surprise when I first drove it, cheap and beastly! I have the Tayga but use it sparingly. I'll definitely give it another go, she whips that's for sure
I have found with the ANK, putting on the raised suspension but leaving the original tyres that it comes with on, keeps it quite stable and it still gets through pretty much anything with ease. The standard tyres it comes with are 47" anyway, so they are as big as most trucks bigger wheels.
Thanks for the video. So far my favorite truck is the Hummer H2, but that’s because I haven’t unlocked that many. Pretty much the only one I did unlock so far from your list is the number one, which I won’t spoil. Looking forward to the detailed video on that one. Later.
The Hummer H2 is great hence being in the intro, I just felt like it would be more interesting to show the weirder stuff. Plus it struggles in Russia's deep mud even if you put on the largest mud-specific tyres. Cheers for avoiding the spoiler!
Try the loadstar aswell. Having a scout (although thirsty) with a crane is a meme and a half. But it has the pulling power to do it. I did the mission with rescueing the big containers in drummond island with that scout.
The Tuz 420 is freaking amazing. That giant mud pit that splits the paved road on the drowned lands? I stuck so many trucks in there, this thing drove through it with no winches and in around 15-20 seconds. Only negative is that it guzzles gas like crazy
Btw, the almighty TUZ 420 can winch trailers meant for trucks with ease, he can climbe Alaska's biggest mountains(for fun) and he can pull exactly: 238 trucks at the same time, while going trough Taimir's DEEP mud
I love the cat truck. Upgrade it fully and it can be a beast! It’s good for most offroad but it’s lack of wheels and shortness make it a lot harder in deep mud.
The Cat CT-680? Cause that’s one of my favourite trucks, mainly cause of the 2 straight stack exhausts with the 45° angle cut on them. Makes me a little annoyed that there’s no Peterbuilt in the game, or more options for tall, thick and dirty lookin’ exhausts...
@@LJT9393 I agree I use the cat ct680 and the paystar5070 alot I have them both fully customized and I think they do awesome. However my opinion on the paystar is kinda biased because I spent most of my childhood riding in my dads international paystar and have since fully restored the truck since he passed away. So naturally I love that truck. Also I would love to see peterbilt come to the game. I own and drive a 02 pete 379 so it would be awesome to see it come to the game!
If top 10 American trucks, I think International Fleetstar and Loadstar should be on list. Among trucks with or capable of both AWD and Difflock, Fleetstar is the only one that can tow sideboard trailer properly when both crane and sideboard bed installed thanks to its long frame. Many people don't like it because of poor stability especially with raised suspension, but after get used to it, it's very handy for me. Load star, with Fleetstar's engine, transmission and axles in a scout vehicle and always-on AWD and difflock, this thing is a maniac, like ANK MK38, they are fuel thirsty and small tank, but always reach its destination before run out of fuel because of its crazy speed.
is noone giving the royal some love? it helped me upright one of the biggest trailers.( the mission ones) and helped pull my main truck whilst being fuel efficient. its my go to truck. give it some love.
The camouflage azov is great as it is fast and stable also if you crash you dont take engine damage as it is in the rear so you can bomb down dirt roads without a care in the world
my go to trucks at the moment are the western white star and royal bm17 (did ALL missions and tasks in michigan with them),for alaska im running the ank38 and pacific12 (rescue truck), will dip my toes into russia this weekend :)... and i have now subscribed also GREAT VIDEOS :P
My personal fav truck is the zikz 605r. It’s powerful, it’s got great tires, 8x8, and can go through mud with out a problem. Of course if the mud reaches your bumper than it may get stuck or in my experiences, keeps going at a slower pace of course. I will admit though it is quite a task to get it though.
Quite simple then. Get a trailer. Attach to Zikz. Get truck with crane on trailer. Take have Zikz take truck with crane to thing that needs crane. Problem solved
The Voron AE and the Tayga in this video are als my best friends. I find them even better than most of the much bigger trucks. Because they can equip most of the important stuff, are more handy and quicker. And they don´t miss the power f the bigger trucks. They are the "go anywhere"-trucks of Snowrunner.
Tayga is amazing, even with stock with no upgrades i was able to pull heavy trailers to its destynation. Even if it wasnt easy but if you dont have P16 and low lvl its my favourite. And if you need to use smal crane you can always use flatbed low trailers with 5 slots and they are more managable if you need to back up a litle or turn around its not hard at all
It is a good truck, I'm looking at making a separate video when I've used it enough. Takes a while to unlock it, which is a pain so thought I'd leave it out.
A Tribe Called Cars yea the grad does take awhile to get. It’s pretty quick to if you equip the highway gearbox. But I definitely agree with you on the tayga, I love that truck more because of the insane fat mud tires you can equip. To bad more trucks don’t have mud tires like that.
Just today i traded my Tayga in for the Grad and its definitely the better truck in my eyes - it looks cooler, more modern and both AWD and diffs are switchable too and also with the same size fuel tank so better efficiency, although the Tayga is definitely the winner early game as the Grad is locked, the grad feels slightly lighter and faster and sounds so much better too
@@theorangeofallahpbuh1840 Dont know about that man, saves alot of fuel on road when not needed and also gives you more of a challenge when not using it - also having a switchable diff lets you turn better when switched off on tight trails with a trailer - the tayga has a much bigger turning circle due to the always on diffs
Good list Tayga is my fav and most used truck as well. Though I think Derry 4520 should get an honorable mention I find it to be the most fun to drive as managing the gears well makes it a beast.
I do like both Derry trucks and the 4520 is better than the 3194 when things get really tough. The problem was I'd end up listing basically every truck unfortunately!
100% agree with the #1 spot. It has been my go to for almost everything since I found it. I still keep the P16 for the super heavy hauls simply because it's heavy enough to counteract an unstable trailer. I would have to give the 'Mr Tippy' award to the Paystar though. I really wanted to love the Paystar, but after tipping it over for the 10th time on a pebble, I sold it. Was spending more time cleaning up after it than getting missions done.
I love that Mr Tippy is now a thing. The Voron Grad is starting to earn itself the name with the biggest engine and highrange gearbox! Paystar isn't my favourite either for that reason.
Agreed. PayStar was my first non findable purchase when I hadn’t found the mods for the Fleetstar yet and it did great for a beginner and also helped discover countless towers and upgrades before I stuck it in the garage for good. But idk how many times I flipped it in the process.
