It snowed here for a few hours and i got some video. It is mostly melted and the tires didn't grip very good with the combination of soggy snow and wet mossy rocks. All filming and driving was done by me. Let me know what you think.

Looks cool. I can't help but notice that your truck doesn't seem to have a very tight turning radius. Is this true? Might want to work on that.

Thanks and no it doesn't have a good turning radius. Some of it is me because it is hard to see where i'm going and turn the right way and film at the same time. When you lock the diffs in the axles, the turning is basicly gone. Even with a good servo. It is worth the extra traction though. You just have to turn around a few times. It is kinda a pain though. And the only thing i could do to make it better is to reverse the lock. You need to have it locked to crawl good though. And i can barely get enough traction in the snow anyways. I actually filmed a little more but decided not to add it since it was so hard to get traction. It would have taken me like 30 seconds to do the section without snow but i didn't even make it up this time.
