Call me crazy but I WOULD NEVER let the snow pile up so deep.

I can’t tell if it’s have any ballast in the body or not, can’t see over the side. If you leave sand in the body, it will absorb rain water & rust the body out. Large concrete blocks would help. Was that rig used by a municipality? I’m surprised it has no wing plow on the right side. Good luck!!!

Chains are priceless in the winter

Elvis is just a hunk-a-hunk-a burning love. Easy to arm chair quarter back. My observation, “How can I help.” Re chains, follow the old firefighter motto “prepare for the worst, hope for the best.

That looks like fun to plow in.

Nice truck! 4x4 too! Plow with the storm, tho. If you can. Chains and ballast are very helpful, for sure! Love that truck, total beast!

How many buckets do you have

it looks like you have gravel driveway and or the area in front of garages. When the snow melts, are you left with mud everywhere and a pile of gravel that needs spread out again?

Plowing is a very humiliating experience. Everyone is an expert. Except the guys who have done it. Prep prep prep. Start earlier. It makes it so much easier in the end. Tons of respect for you and the truck. Have extra lines on the floor boards along with tools and hydro. Paint the plow, the snow will cast off better.

You could use tire chains (I spoke to soon, you did), those tire socks work well to. I know a recovery guy locally that uses them on his personal plow truck. On his commercial truck he has auto chains. The auto chains are to expensive for most normal people. I have also seen someone throw a thick canvas liner in the bed of his dump truck and he will fill it half way with water, once it freezes you have plenty of weight without worrying about rocks falling out of the back.

I love the hum of the granny gears in those old trucks

Hey, great vid. Just some friendly advice, working with many vehicles for over 40 years, try a fresh carb rebuild, a decent tuneup, and some fresh gas with stabilizer. It looks and sounds like it isn't running well, or on all cylinders. You are plowing with about 60% to 70% of engine power. That thing should be able to push a mountain if it is running good. I agree with the chains for that much snow. Good Luck my friend! Keep the old truck going! :-)

There’s one of these with a tractor rear end and a plow on the front for sale near me, has tractor wheels too, looks like from farmall

I know them trucks . Belong in the dump. Worst ever.

Great video! Thank you for taking the time to show us! I love snow and I love getting snowed in! As long as you have food and alcohol that is!!! I would like to make a suggestion in the most positive way. Take your dump truck to a local facility that sells sand and load that dump bed up with sand. Then get a tarp to cover the bed to keep that sand dry. With sand in the bed for weight and the tire chains you will be in heaven! Also you can spread a little sand onto the driveway once you get the snow plowed off!

That is the ultimate solution to back woods delivery in the mountains

You got a four-wheel drive dump truck You don't have no chains on it looks like you don't know how to shift gears or use a clutch yeah you'll have that burn up before summer

Are you just going to keep talking about it or are you going to put the damn thing in here let's go😅

That truck running bad

What year is the truck?

Awesome video! I just purchased 16G. 14:05

Great video but that motor has some moderate blowby same thing my 1979/80 366 was doing.

you need weight not chains

Cool truck, that ol girl sounds like she might need a tuneup

Open diffs really sucks ass😡👎🏿

Just really enjoyed watching Elvis work. So cool. 😊

Wish I could find a truck like that, they are all rusted out in Eastern Canada. A set of chains and a few tons of crush stone on, you could dump and spread with a tail gate chain. Non stoppable.

Maybe you should start by learning to plow with an ATV.

The old girl can throw the snow!!

Hawthorn burns hotter than the hinges on the gate to hell.🤗😮🤗

why was the front buried in snow - when there is a plow on the front of the truck ?....when stuck like that use the angle feature of the plow to help move back

Iam from saudi arabia ilke you and ilike yuor truck keep going

IMO a great Job once chains on. Older equipment not used a lot it's always something... Go Elvis!!

3 months isnt long enough...

Elvis has left the driveway...

A piece of angle would have worked better

Just acquired one, you have any sources for parts for a 6G?

How did the engine not stall

I prefer to build with WoodPrix plans.

you can put chains on with out jacking truck up, truck drivers do it all the time on the side of the road or in a chain up lane or wayside rest

Nice looking firewood . Is that the Ms 261 or the Ms 271 ?

As a chimney sweep. You can always punch your chimney 1x a month. It’s easy to do yourself. Sometimes wood isn’t ready but the family is cold.

Nice ♻️

I’m married!

16G is 18 horsepower?

Bruh the engine is error☠️

Just got mine for 800 and it’s running and driving and cutting is there any thing I should look out for with this yard tractor

Going there in 2 days so pumped!

Great to see a dad and his kids bonding like that but please consider safety at least for the boys. The little one with no shoes on and neither with eye protection. Very useful tool though.

So happy you say “crick” for creek. True PA man.
