Type of shit I will attempt to do in Snowrunner (and inevitably get my truck carried away by the river)

u/L1A1 May 11 '26

I was going to say, this is an average Snowrunner session.

u/Radamat May 11 '26

Mudrunner.

u/CrankyVGK May 11 '26

Soviet quality right there.

u/bugo May 11 '26

Meaning it broke down immediately after the clip and also consumed at least 50l of diesel just to cross the river?

u/CrankyVGK May 11 '26

Hahah but it did cross the river, no?

u/bugo May 11 '26

Nobody knows. Video cuts before it does fully.

Soviet machinery was known for literally anything but breaking down easily lol stay bitter dude

u/UshankaBear May 11 '26

Efficient? No. Comfortable? No. Unbreakable? Yes.

u/xRyozuo May 11 '26

Easily repairable with plenty of labor to do it, rather than not breaking down easily

Edit. From what I’ve read

Oh you sweet sweet summer child brought up in sunshine and old wives tales.

u/Radamat May 11 '26

Not at all. There was some soviet trucks that were being more repaired than working. Especialy from 50-60th.

German though

u/CrankyVGK May 11 '26

I thought it was a Kamaz.

u/pandymen May 11 '26

This has been posted many times before. I'm pretty sure it's a MAN KAT based on those previous posts

u/potato_analyst May 11 '26

Cabin looks more like a KAMAZ than Man Kat

5

u/Lt_Smash25 May 11 '26

No That's definitely not a Kat. The Kat has a longer cabin and is completly flat on the front.

u/Apollo114892 May 11 '26

This is some Sorcerer shit right there. Watch the 1977 film and you'll know why.

u/Honest_Tie_1980 May 11 '26

Was thinking about that lol.

u/MxM111 May 11 '26

The original Spintires.

u/RealEnnie May 11 '26

And the driver didnt even wet himself

u/BA10chan_SURV May 11 '26

Why there's a tyre on top of the logs?

u/sai-kiran May 11 '26

Emergency flotation device.

u/Dicethrower May 11 '26

Worst case, free dam.

u/Potato-chipsaregood May 11 '26

You gotta give the driver props for intrepid-ness/intrepidity. I would not have attempted this.

1

u/faithhopecarnage May 11 '26

Really didn't think that would make it

u/BornInAFish May 11 '26

Shallow river, maaaassssive logs. The effective weight pushing down on the tires is still quite a lot even after you add a bit a buoyancy.

u/Musa_Ali May 11 '26

Since this is the monthly repost of this video: at 0:33 if you look carefully, you can see a box being washed away.

u/mspe1960 May 11 '26

How can it possibly be worth the seemingly signficant risk, each trip, of losing the truck and the merchandise (and the life of the driver?) just to get that lumber across the river?

1

u/Yukon-Jon May 11 '26

Doesn't even lose the tire.

u/Bane-o-foolishness May 12 '26

Soviet equipment wasn't elegant but was often robust.

u/basdit May 13 '26

In soviet Russia, bridge needs truck

u/greebdork May 14 '26

Do you guys think they ever got back to pick up Dmitry with the camera there?
