I bet that sand rail was a hoot! The track/ski combo wasn't nearly large enough to allow a machine that size to work on the soft stuff, but it would be a great trail runner. Dave cracked me up at the end when he walked away from it completely coated in spray.

Make the tracks a foot wider then put a set of fenders in front of it to minimize the snow going forward and it should be great

Love that cabover it looks so badass murdered out like that. Great work you and the boys knocked that one right out of the park....

As a farmer I feel the cold the same way every piece of equipment has its own new of starting. You guys need webaso coolant an cab heater as a sponsor for this one. Keep up the positive attitudes! Great videos

It's good to see Alen again. Your hard work has paid off. Work hard, play harder.

Can’t wait to see all the action and these wild machines out tearing it up. Such a cool group of dudes

So impressed with how Sparks team trys to do seemingly impossible with some of finest money can buy! Yes it pays to have friends with impressive friends!

My favorite part of every year is watching the build up to the snowed in series (from all you tubers involved) plus the episodes them self. Perfect content with a perfect cast!

I love the freedom bus so much dude, you did great on that

A brand new cheese-driller 400. Nice cat. Pretty soon you're gonna have to buy a ski area to go with all your snow equipment.

Yea, the tracks on the crazy sled seem to have a need to be wider and to have some sort of fender to prevent the snow from just being thrown into the cockpit. Sounds amazing though.

You guys need a commercial space heater the type that runs on diesel looks like a jet after burner..a aluminum 1 foot diameter culvert and a parachute this you can cover the motor compartment and heat everything up ..this method is used all the time in Alaska

I look forward to the snowed in series every year now. I absolutely love this stuff!

that freaking bus looks awesome with those monster tracks....

White jug for your bulk tanks. Red one for emergencies quick acting when your freezing up

This should be a really fun weekend you all will have. My mom even laughed when she saw the bus w the snow tracs on it. You all definitely make things work. ❤

With Monster Jam coming to Rice-Eccles stadium, this is the perfect opportunity for the freedom bus to gain some popularity

Oh shit, here we go!

You know, got have respect for Sparks and the crew, when you need to bring serious equipment even to play with your toys, I don't some may call it crazy, some may call it excessive but you can not deny respect for the man that has it ! Not to mention great friends to help you enjoy it.

Its good to know you have a crew that can get stuff done if you have to step out. That is key to any good successful business. Those guys that are loyal to you deserve top pay.

needs bigger tracks on cleetuses snow rail

cant wait to see monster max in the snow

I'm 60 years old and watching these crazy buggers play reminds me of when I was a young buck and played pretty hard. Not sure how we survived half the stuff we use to do but had a lot of fun and laughs. Cheers

Damn, looking at this from a sunny South Africa (75 deg) I get the shivers just watching you plowing through that deep snow!!🤣🤣🤣

Dave, you and your team are absolute legends for setting all this up! ✌

Looks like it's going to be a fun weekend. Let's hope all goes good.

I wonder why snowcats have very wide tracks. Maybe the large surface=traction and not sinking into the snow has something to do with it?

@petercornish9903

To compact the "piste" ,the track, for skiing. Make nice wide passes and not overly compact the snow so that it becomes hard to set ski edges into, or hard if you should fall on it.

Exactly. Also for grip since they are used to push snow away. My point as a civil engineer was that having so skinny tracks on a vehicle like the bus (heavy as F) or even worse on that so called Snowrail (overpowered as F) their fail could have been predicted. I am very disappointed to watch some guys inevitably very talented in making amazing machines but lacking some simple basics in physics. Alan is the most mind driven from the bunch. He knows physics not only mechanics. Maybe he is indeed a wizard. ;)@@YarMahNarNar

@@petercornish9903 Correct. The more surface area you can use the better to spread the weight and also to have more grip when pushing compacted snow forward. Not too hard to find out why was the Snowrail digging in and sink. Also I won't say the bus had so much success either. Nice shots but under so much weight those tracks are inadequate.

The flash point of gasoline is -50 degrees. That means at that temperature or below gasoline does not give off sufficient fumes to allow ignition. Rember that only the fumes burn, liquids do not. Thats why in Alaska and the arctic they wrap engines with blankets to reduce the effects of the extreme cold so they'll start.

My son was so impressed when we stopped and seen the bus last year. With the tracks I know he would love it.

Some curtains around the bus would help keep the propane heat in.

Just imagine what the Freedom bus is going to look like in 2040.

hell yea brother 🤙 so sick love these snowed in episodes 👌

WhistlinDiesel now need tracks for his MonsterMax! ahha

Build a skirt or tent to trap heat next time....or build and insulate the fuel tank and engine compartment so you only need a low heat to keep Warm. Diesel antifreeze helps too.

For future reference from an old school trucker… a tarp and some charcoal is your best friend when you can’t get a cold diesel to start. Wrap a tarp around the bottom and get some charcoal down to coals, throw it on sheet of tin and slide it under.

I saw that dewalt jumper / compressor unit being hooked up to the bus and KNEW I made a legit purchase. Thing has been sitting in my truck in Kodiak winter confusion for three months and only needed topping up once so far.

I know how it is starting equipment in the cold is. Our first year in North Dakota was hell lol being from the south and going up there to work was a wake up call come winter lol had to have a propane torch/heater, a jet heater, hose you could hook to your exhaust, , blankets (thick ass tarps) light plants and spider boxes. After the first year we started changing everything over to #1 fuel around the end of September as well!!! Y’all have fun be safe!!! Thanks for cranking out the videos!!!

Dave I just want to say that you have yourself one hell of a crew. Anybody that would go work on toys in 2 degree weather. That wasn’t their own are so good guys.

You guys living the dream, channel always pumps out great stuff ! Keep it up guys ! Would love to visit one day, love from UK 🇬🇧

This is just so cool, I drove buses in the past so this monster bus is just super awesome!!!! They work you guys do to help people in need is so heartwarming. Keep up the good work, sending positive vibes from Ireland. 👌💯☘

Very cool that y'all got this organized. Looks like there will be a lot of fun to be had.

Been watching heavy d for 8 or 9 years got to say pretty much got to say he has been my favorite content on you tube since I started watching go getter done heavy good to see someone who genuinely loves what he does keep up the good work

This is AMAZING!! I can't wait for this year's snowed-in series!!!

The bus is insane!!!! I love it

I told you that they put all 4 shoes on it and that would be unstoppable. It's likely that there would be two feet of snow there. But with Track, let me tell you, it turned out phenomenal. That's living a dream come true, brother.

Get a used Proheat from a school bus. They do a great job preheating a bus engine. We’ve got one on a CAT C7 and it makes all the difference.

So Fun , Thank You . A fine example of fun in the snow

My goodness , watching stuff like this just makes me want to be better , go harder ! Man I would love to do stuff like this ! So awesome !

I look forward to this every year now!!

you should mix some jet a with your diesel fuel, the anti gel properties of jet a would probably help with the cold

Been struggling with our equipment at work lately, too, thanks to the cold. Supposed to warm up this week though. Have fun and stay safe.

I love these videos....I can't frigging wait for more. I'm probably just as excited as you guys are. 😁✌️

Snowed In is always great to watch. One of those trips you can only dream about. lol

Why am I not surprised that the Diesel Brothers are behind this. This is so cool!

I love it. Maybe if you still have the "VARUCK" you can put it on snow cat tracks and have "VARACK". A smaller version that is transportable.

Love your frozen beard Dave! Have fun and be safe guys.👍👍

This would be such a fun experience. I'd love to be playing with my 5 kids out there!!!!

that is crazy all the big ones in 1 place ripping , hell yeah!

Love ya guys! Thanks! Always a joy to watch

Oh, I’ll be staying tune love the snow Vlogs

the snow ripper that looks like a blast

That bus looks like something out of star wars!!!

Lived and played hard in the big mountains for 40+ years and i gotta say those are some super aic machines!! Powder is the track killer on big rigs but your gona do well and im gonna luv watching every minute!! LFG boys!!!

I guess the reason folks up north survive the cold so well is they are setup for it. Plug ins for the vehicles and the like.

As someone who drives trucks for a living... Yes those temps are hard on diesels but if prepared right everything should fire up without much work.. (heavy fuel treatment is a great start)

That Ford cabover looks like something Robocop should be driving I friggin' love it!!!

I never knew just how hard a diesel was to start in the winter, until I got one, the second year that I owned my 2008 Ford F350 6.4 liter 4x4, she was a stubborn pain in the butt.

This takes me back to working in North Dakota in the winter! Engines are not happy below 10 degrees!

The freedom bus on tracks looks in sane kinda looks like the body is leaning to one side cant wait to see the snowed in video

I'm surprised you don't have some Herman Nelson heaters? I'm 1000 miles north of you in Edmonton and went through record cold conditions with -46C= -51F degrees!! We warm up the jet engines on the airliners with the Hermans. With the Herm hose in a lower cowl opening we were able to heat the engine oil from -35C to 0C in about 20 minutes.

It's fun to watch this. These should have known that it was getting that cold your going to have to do something with the fuel. Also they should have come up with automatic leveling on the bus. Feel a little better on a small grade.

Back home in northwest Montana, -40 degrees and I showed up for work to find the delivery truck’s diesel tank was frozen solid. Pushed the truck into the warehouse and set up heaters and still took all day to thaw it out. That was the day teenage me learned about diesel fuel antifreeze.

So much work involved for this adventure !!! So much respect for Mr Sparks

Boys with their toys on a winter holiday, looks fun.
