Biggest street legal Ford 350 in Europe 54 inch tires in snow action - Iceland

[@briggs9187]

I don't care where it is or who drives it... this looks like a blast of fun.

[@DaCoder]

Sweet, down here in Texas, people only lift their trucks to make them look "better" nice to see a real truck in use.

[@sethstaggs2710]

IDk where you are from in texas, but we actually have the lift for a purpose...may wanna look into that more.

[@backinthehighlifeagain5468]

I had the opportunity to ride in one of these trucks when I was in Iceland about ten years ago. It's incredible the amount of engineering that goes into these rigs. The owner explained how it was built. Even describing how they had to move the front axle forward so the massive tires wouldn't catch on the back of the fender wells. They really are set up more for glacier work though. The vibration through the cabin at speed on paved roads was a little disconcerting, due to the fact those huge tires can be difficult to balance.

[@dmsmith1980]

Iceland does some of the coolest 4x4 mods. TopGear going to the North Pole, that Hilux was awesome. impressive to see what you've done with an American truck.

[@htcooley04]

the look of that truck is perfect the lift and tire combination is just perfect has that menacing look

[@supportthejerseymob]

didn't think pick up trucks existed in Europe, this is nice to see.

[@Varasalvi2]

That's an odd thing to think :p Not like the rest of the world has no uses for a pickup truck, we move stuff around too, you know :D

[@hannibaljonsson5550]

many ford f series dodge and chevy to.

[@ravender730]

in EU? not even one

[@rockabillyrebel2937]

There’s a lot, Arctic trucks were made in Iceland first.

[@Realtruck]

This is exactly what we need up here in ND!

[@swimmer8585]

Here in America, having a truck that size is called "normal." Hell, we all ride around in our pickups with the big American flags on the back with our shotguns in our laps and eating mcdonalds while our bald eagles fly in formation overhead

[@swimmer8585]

***** Sorry to hear that. Come on over to Murica where life is good and the food is big

[@krasnaludek298]

Ghost He's joking, but I have a GMC on 35s

[@elilivezey7884]

35's are great, but we're talking 54's

I have always loved the Tundra blasters. Iceland hats off - from drag racing straight up rock cliffs to powering through giant drifts in white outs! uh......except one thing, no trees. We have volcanos here too, it's just that they've progressed a few more eons. Love the footage!.

[@yellow72bronco]

Awesome Vid ! Spent a year in Iceland in the Early 90s while serving in the Military. Saw some Monster Glacier rigs back then. These guys know how to build Big Badass Durable Trucks!

[@richfarfugnuven6308]

that f350 is am absolute monster. love it.

[@roberdude12345]

That's just a suburban grocery getter in America ;-)

[@0hn0haha]

Nobody has tires that wide in the us

[@gary5831]

Ford 350 with 54 are daily drivers in the US.

[@DoctorRickSanchez]

gary s Especially here in Ga.

[@gregorvich9763]

no americans lift their trucks up and do nothing else

[@burgerbandit3646]

Grétar Örn Grétarsson || be quiet fool. You have no knowledge of what goes on here in the U.S apparently...

[@krizzi4991]

gary s the tires are custom made here in iceland we dont lift our truck so they can pool cool it is a necessity of you but american truck with american tires they would sink and get stuk

[@TLC150]

Daily drivers...maybe but rather for enlargement of certain other things then for real offroad use and I don‘t mean driving through a mud pit

[@DiRtBiK3rJoRdAn]

That F-350 looks so sweet! The whole video is cool. Love the snowy landscape!

[@bobvincent4841]

Wow, for once a legit BADASS Ford. Definitely capable. I was not expecting a Ford with 54's to be put together that well. Rugged axles, gearing, and some decent flex. Hmmm, compliments to the builder!

[@branon6565]

That Ford is just badass....nice rig....

[@balder90]

we will probably take that Ford beast out for a cold walk this winter along with his hardcore 960hp nitro brother 1000 hp willys, modified by Eyjolfur Johannsson (has been painted black) Subscribe to make sure you won't miss it !!! Sorry for not answering all you questions please post again if there are any and I will try to answer most. ps. please tell what you would like to see in my next "snow action" video

[@scoobygotsnacks]

That thing is a fucking animal for sure, and the adventure looks fun as hell.

[@smumm]

What would I like to see... technical river hazard crossing/fording (for instance entry and exits off steep and large snowbanks)!

[@armandinejette2101]

[e-mail]

[@c0d7y]

best gas milage ever!!! 5 gallons for every foot it moves...

[@hezamakiah]

It even looks as if it's a Lariat! Totally awesome. Hope to make it to Iceland some day.

[@nandoah001]

Awesome playing field, that big Ford sure knows how to play in the snow. Would really love to play too !! Bring up more videos guys!

[@csj3rd]

FORD

[@JarkurYaroslav]

'Merica

[@reverze5521]

No. This is using these cars properly.. Not buying a big ass 4x4 to support your fat ass when you get your groceries ('Merica-style)

[@JarkurYaroslav]

Oh I'm sorry, I didn't know Ford wasn't an American company. Which was the purpose of my comment. Also I do the same thing with a 2000 F-250 V10, it see's snow and mud. Also off-roading isn't the purpose of Ford trucks, if you lived in America you'd know the majority of their advertisements are work based, as in hauling trailers and carrying heavy objects. The only Ford truck I've seen advertised as an off-road vehicle is the Ford Raptor. "Using properly" would assume you are using it for its intended purpose, which this is not its intended purpose. I am not saying these trucks can't handle this type of use in stock form, I speak from experience that they can. Buying groceries in a large 4x4 is not how people do things where I live. Yes we do go to the store with them, but that is not the only thing we use them for. I usually see that type of use from people who live in large cities. People come from Chicago to where I live and do this stuff. Is it "'Merica-style"? No, not by a long shot. The fact that you assume everyone in America lives in a city and is a fat-ass that needs a 4x4 to carry them around shows you know nothing. I dislike large cities because majority of people I meet from there don't understand how the world works. Much like you. I can only assume you hate Americans because of what our government does in other countries. I don't support our "intervention" in other countries affairs. But do not put me in the same category as some democrat idiot who is overweight and wants the government to take care of them.

[@reverze5521]

I said properly, not that this is their soul purpose. Obviously they are capable and advertised for more then just offroading. However there's just a shitload of people who buy these big cars and use them for nothing more than daily routines such as driving to work and doing groceries. And obviously not everyone in America, it just realy fits the 'Murica slang. So don't feel offended if you're not part of the group I was pointing out, im sure you can be a part of them.. Just eat more McD and never get out of your 4x4 again.

[@JarkurYaroslav]

Honestly I get sick when I eat at McDs hahaha...

[@Justa318i]

ReVerZe I don't know if you've actually been to the US, but the large trucks used where I live are used for hauling large trailers filled with horses, not something your average European van or truck can accomplish.

[@matthewmeek4289]

7:15 why a nissan can never hang with a powerstroke lol

[@billthompson5644]

big boys playing in the snow The coolest video you are when nobody else can go. Great job.

[@cwp1alpha]

I would actually love a complete list of build up specifications on that F350. Very impressive!

[@stayin91degrees]

'MERIC....Oh, wait..

[@dylanpowell2307]

this truck looks mild compared to US trucks lol

[@OverlandingColombia]

The only difference is that they are alredy using for real this truck

[@johnking9209]

I just farted!

[@rigakit]

That truck will not be stopped !!! Awesome video !!!

[@YasumotoUS]

Have always been a fan of Ford trucks. This is a great extreme conditions driving video.

[@spacecloud12]

That truck is small lol I've seen bigger but i do live in the southern U.S.

[@rcfrenzy]

Must have some seriously low gearing.

[@Mp57navy]

+RcFrenzy Jup, some people tend to drop a second low range box in them. Then just second gear, and let it crawl. Adds up to around half a walking pace.

[@Deejaysanji-yt2kg]

Henry Ford (founder of Ford Automobiles) and Adolf Hitler admired each other's achievements. Adolf Hitler kept a life-size portrait of Ford next to his desk. "I regard Henry Ford as my inspiration," In July 1938, four months after the German annexation of Austria, Ford was awarded the Grand Cross of the German Eagle, the highest medal awarded by Nazi Germany to foreigners. Ford disliked the administration of President Franklin D. Roosevelt and did not approve of U.S. involvement in the war. This is why i hate Ford

[@ThuhgLife]

and what does that have to do with Ford today? Is the ceo of Ford admired my Hitler?

[@thehonestbigot9341]

you must be an idiot deejaysanji

[@nugget5620]

Deejaysanji 1992 What a load of shit.

[@ricki7187]

This looks like a lot of fun! A lot like mud bogging but your truck and clothes are clean when you get home :-) It would suck to do repairs in -15C weather though.

[@crpth1]

The amazing warm voice of Cesária Évora at 5:42 in the middle of all that snow... quite a contrast. Greetings fra Sørlandet, Norge. :-)

[@Chargeglass]

Should re name your title, I thought you took a shitty Ford and fit a Chevy 350 in it....

[@PandasFknRule]

Or, you know. leave it how it is because it's an F350....the kind that are all over this country so you should know better.

[@lilpeppa117G]

So i can get a ton of #recalls no thanks jack ass

[@bds1]

Really? Go put your helmet back on before you hurt yourself.

[@skigdividerx4991]

Why don't you see Junk GM shit up there? Stay in your apartment dumbfuck.

[@DYhondaman]

doubt a 350 would have the torque, dumbass.

[@Carralero4]

That is the best display of balls of steel (the drivers and their crew) all the trucks are built extremely well, the ford just has the advantage with the taller tires and the twin turbo setup! Would love to be in a place like that someday

[@jdrseven]

Nice to see that Iceland is 'Merica, too! Awesome truck!

[@SilvaJosh1995]

its been a dream of mine to explore the icelandic mountains. my great grandfather on my mothers side lived and explored that area throughout his life.

[@1979f250guy]

that is some great proportion with the body and tires actually looks like it should be like that. very nice man

[@Nachoford88]

Proud ford owner!!! even in Europe ford gets recognized. You guys are crazy nice video

[@JSHTech1]

Those rigs and that terrain is awesome.

[@DanielJaegerFilms]

Looks like a ton of fun!

[@almib]

Those tires make that thing look like it has a short bed. Love it!

[@MaikKarb]

nice, from first seconds of movie I was thinking that's Iceland. Increadible view. Great cars to drive on this beautifull island.

[@ArtemLokhovitskiy]

The music is hilarious:) like they were bored driving in traffic at rush hour or something like that

[@wacadaca]

That truck is a monster. Wish we had that kind of snow in texas

[@Rockerrobin]

thumbs up for these people who actually need big trucks

[@hornetbrown]

This looks like lots of fun...Ohio winters are nothing like this...I would give anything to be able to travel that frontier in a formidable vehicle like those Fords...

[@NVJeepXJ]

Every off-roader could learn from the Icelandic ideology of setting up an off-road vehicle. I have heard that Iceland has an issue with "treading lightly", so traveling off-road when the ground is frozen is much better, so the vehicles have to reflect that. I loved hearing a snippet of "Hotel California" at 3:00. Keep up the good work, guys. 73 de NV6R

[@jimhuskey3343]

All them Riggs look like they was set up pretty nice had lockers on them that looks like a pretty tough group man good video

[@LS644]

This video makes you really want to visit that area. Awesome!

[@timothyhoppen]

Greetings from Australia, love the patrol!

[@1sdevlin]

By far best video on KZbin!

[@twat4356]

This looks awesome! Need to move to Iceland.

[@plaid13]

The best looking 4x4s all seem to be from Iceland. Here in the US people would just put massive amounts of lift on a truck to fit those tires. then end up with a truck that flips onto its side the first time they go off road. Nice to see them being built the right way by making room for the tires to fit into the body instead of just lifting the body away from the wheels.

[@Sockman88]

that looks like an awesome adventure, wish i could go!

[@davidamiller5209]

liking that f 350, awesome.

[@Panzergraf]

Those trucks all lokk awesome. Especially the 350!

[@krstone0]

That F-350 is a BEAST!!!

[@bretatvs]

THAT LOOKS LIKE SO MUCH FUN!

[@jameskorotko1878]

You guys have some bad ass rigs keep up the cool videos

[@QuietRage69]

Driving one of these is every ten-year-old boy's dream. Incredible fun.

[@oystein8371]

that car is a friggin monster =) iceland and artic trucks rock =)

[@taka78mac]

Very Very Cool truck!!!....and looks like so cold

[@brandtbg]

well, your machines are good and I LOVE to drive in deep snow

[@adameberts617]

Iceland sounds cold! But would be a very cool prize indeed

[@someoneimportant1692]

Thats hard core winter off roading.

[@CaptainYodelstein]

I hate the cold but would love the chance to ride along in an awesome rig into the Icelandic mountains.

[@lilbrock103]

takes a special people for this kind of four wheeling!

[@thomasreh72]

Richtig geile Sache, sowas würd ich auch gerne mal machen. Macht bestimmt riesen Spaß.

[@jamesjenkins1128]

the Ford F 350 w/54" tires in Europe is the baddest truck on the planet!!!!!!!

[@ProductofNZ]

Snow trucks look so utilitarian and awesome.

[@StanWilhite]

Love the Joe Cocker song playing! He's been my fav singer since 1969! It almost killed me when he died.

[@Madzor]

Great work there! Oh and a good day to all of you reading this! :)

[@SalveMonesvol]

Totally badass! How many litres every 100 km while doing this? 300?

[@pablof59]

When going through those very complicated soft surfaces try this: Join several trucks with 3 mts long rigid bars with "U" joints attachments able to pull & push. With 3 trucks you get a 12 x 12 traction tandem, one of them will always get better grip and you will be able to sort obstacles impossibles for one vehicle.

[@bemch1988]

That looks like a whole lot of fun.

[@guppy1911]

I want all of those trucks! Awesome!!!

[@HPICustoms]

Such an awesome truck. Would love to take any of the rigs in this video out in the snow/ mud.

[@TyranamoFlies]

Looks like a great amount of fun!

[@Melrakkinn]

It is not about going tall, it is about fitting the tires properly AND keeping it driveable ... something you guys in America often forget ;)

[@JRDEAN71]

I'm a chevy guy - but damn.... that is a sweet truck. The toyota is pretty damn cool too.

[@ionizdgrunt2]

THats the best looking ford ive seen, i mean the tires may be overkill, but whocares, its badass :P

[@marialovato8969]

Here in Texas we go mudding ... guess this is the equivalent but ...snowing? Awesome rig. I have the 350 dually with mud tires. No where near that size but I get my compliments

[@Hole_Motorsports]

badass. portal axles and everything

[@nelagordon24]

every single one of those trucks are badass vehicles'

[@kennewickdevildog]

Nice looking truck for sure. Fords the way to go

[@megasaber277]

i cant believe you have monstrous snow tires on the beast.\

[@ttstts8573]

Nice country & very nice peole. Been in Iceland my self...here looks just for fun driving...Like it. I have Ford wildtrak 2014 in Bulgaria-off course far away of this on video...But nice anyway....

[@markstegeman4337]

thanks for the video I'm never coming to ice land have fun loved it though

[@Rags722]

Looks like a pretty common Texas Cowboy Cadillac . LOL

[@RABIDD0GMA]

Love the truck. How big are those tires? And you should get a set of tracks you can replace the tires with, see if it does better with all that snow.

[@gerrymap]

i need one like these! great video.

[@bondami]

Off roaders the world over.. Thumbs up..we are all the same!

[@lipinski1337]
