well still working on the plow and how to mount it to make it funtional. power lift, etc.
well we got a little bit of powder today so i had to go play in it. i was out of town today so i didnt get much time before it got dark. i didnt have a set of fully charged batteries, so these had to do. still was fun just would have been better with fully charged batteries. maybe the snow will still be around saturday and i can get a better video. but for the time being heres some pics and videos.

Woah, that was real nice! My truck can't help but slipping in the snow, and its quite obvious that those chained tires make a difference.

Hey good job on the wheels, those look a lot better than the ones i made a while back when that winter xmod thread was started.



That thing gets around pretty well in that powder. I'm sure if it was a bit more packed down it would get around even better. I love the paint, looks really good man. What motor are you running in it? - Sorry if that question has been answered already.

I think you should slow it down a bit and put more torque.

this thing has a lot of torque already. not sure how much more i need. i have my crawlers, this one is more of a offroad / snow playing vehicle.

yeah i bet it could double as a mudder. might have to see.

If you lined it up right, you could make it look like it was hauling the fifth wheel/camper in the background. That thing looks good. I don't know what you did to it, it looks the same as last time, to me anyways. But I still like it.

if it wasnt to deep it would be pretty good. i'd say 1/2 inch max. maybe a little more

red on the headlight lenses is the only red i still see...but it fits in, so i think this is a great paintjob. too bad my truck project couldn't be finished in time to enter this comp. i think i'll be voting for yours
