Ford Highboy Snowbank Cold Start

[@bigospig]

I like the floor window that let's you instantly check road conditions.

[@robjames7732]

Gotta giver all the peanut butter !!

[@aiden9237]

Ethel, the beautiful maiden herself has been awakened from her slumber under the blankets of frost and snow!

[@d.sparkes346]

The real champion is that starter. What a loyal ol’ girl.

[@Boneyardfantasy]

Just like a ol Ford never died, beautiful snow Paradise. Lol

[@burninpwder76]

I couldn't help myself I went out and cranked up my old ford in the snowbank. 91 f150 heavy half short bed with the old 300 inline. it hasn't run for over a year. we only have a foot or so on the ground here so i didn't shovel. dropped in a battery she lit off before the battery died :D locked her in 4 wheel and took a joyride thru the fields. she is my repair project in the spring :)

[@ericouellette5293]

Brings back memories of starting dad's 75 f100 with the 360 to plow snow.

[@leepatton1180]

Snow is great fun

[@RustyIronProjectsRIP]

Snow is great fun?? Shovel it for four hours and get back to me on that! Lol

[@wadestewart9891]

love all the old Ford trucks ,the only thing missing is a Bronco. Wish I would have kept all the one I owned ,but the 76 highway I drove from Alaska to Oklahoma was one of the nicest. thanks for the videos.Wade

[@AlainHubert]

This should be an ad for The Legend Premium NAPA battery! 😂

[@FeralPreacher]

Amazing battery to handle that much cranking in that low temp. Glad it ran, brakes are over rated anyway. Hard to start because the muffler bearing was frozen. Thanks for sharing.

[@donmunro2676]

Here in Ontario Canada we don't have quite the heavy winters you Alaskans do. I remember one cold winter morning when no vehicle in the yard would start except my Dad's old rusty truck. The look of pride on his face was priceless. He actually bought rust coloued trucks cause it saved time.lol

[@bazilwreckerloughead]

My brother said that looks like something I'd drive, I thanked him...I think he meant it in a good way!

[@blaise2628]

Watched it from beginning to end, love the narration! The gas gauge working or running on empty helps with the content?!? ;)

[@tomp3981]

You don't need to worry about brakes just put in the snowbank. Awesome video.👌✌

[@Shagnasty]

I really enjoy all your videos. I especially like the instruction on everything. Don't change anything. I knew the old FORD start. Take care and can't wait for your next video.

[@SuperFullin]

Love your channel! Awsome hard work on awsome vehicles. I live in tropical Brazil but I've been vacationing in Alaska back in 2002, driving from Anchorage all around the state. Had a good glimpse on what is living up there in the wilderness with scarce resources. Glad to see someone young like yourself with the guts and into old iron including Ford trucks and WW2 stuff. AM into old iron too, including Fords too. Cheers from Brazil. Keep up the outstanding job!!! 💪💪💪🏆🏆🏆😎😎😎👍👍👍

[@timerickson7056]

my memory of living in tropical fargo nd the hood for my 67 mustang was on back order from ford so all winter I drove it without a good . it was parked outside not plugged in and every morning at 7:30 am I get in it and turn the key pump the throttle 3 times and it would fire right up. my o to her cars even plugged in and the engines full of warm water didn't like to start at -40 . but my hoodless unplugged 289 always fired up. it would take a can of windshield deicer each day because the heater core and fan were also on back order . yes I was driving at -,40 with my window down to help keep the windshield clear . I don't miss the snow and cold a bit

[@gaspedal74]

Great coldstart and angles view! Thanks for sharing

[@Shadetreehack57]

Eventually the starter acts as a block heater.

[@JoeVizethum]

great cold start and joy ride with this ol boy !

[@edryan2926]

Nice cold start and drive off by the old Highboy! Those are "real" snow tires on the passenger side of the truck! Love it.

[@The58stupot]

Rusty ' n ' Running. Way to go.

[@newton366]

That wing nut will be there in the Spring

[@williamdomey7584]

I’m glad I found your channel. Really like the old Fords. Unfortunately can’t find any in my area. My mother sold his 77 after he passed.

[@mromatic17]

this is living proof of how reliable old ford trucks are! I watch your and peg's videos and these old and beat to hell olf ferd trucks just fire right up! Hell the green highboy barley has any cab or straight bodywork yet will fire right up and drive! its amazing! I love my shitty 1994 f-150 RCSB 4X4 5.0 5 speed! its a tank and I love it!

[@PEDALFEVER]

Damn that was one hell of a cold start. Lots of long cranking and pumping that gas pedal. Those old Ford pickups hate the cold. There are really cranky when they sit for a long time. Awesome video. Hope to see more. Thanks for sharing.

[@gregquante8864]

The snow is beautiful. I’m sure it gets old but it’s cool to see from 3k miles away. Thanks for the video

[@brendagaunce8757]

Pray for spring! At least I will pray for an early spring for you.

[@barfass]

Us northern folk know that the old rig runs great and starts perfect in cold temps! hahaha I always saw it as a challenge to get the old girls going, you knew you were in for a bit of a fight each time, but they always ran.

[@dirtslinger7661]

I love the videos and especially the ford truck stuff as I’m addicted to them just like you are. Keep it up

[@lonnyjaw]

Yeah Brother! I had faith in you to get Ole Ethel awakened from her winter slumber. Thank you for featuring your toys that you had for awhile, we start missing them too! God Bless You.

[@markdrake2715]

Great videos...I love old school trucks...always had Chevys myself. Also not so damn cold. Good stuff

[@bottomfeeder9023]

"Perl harbor another transfer case" my fuck what a legend.

[@gr8daddy682]

Canadian ally here…looks warm there and not that much snow.

[@davidhall5520]

Damn I love that truck!

[@nelsonannett5427]

she rolled over so long the temp gauge started to move. lol. ol fords dont like to hit for a bit but they do go. cheers bud.

[@dirtfloormotors]

That old truck wasn't expecting to go anywhere until spring, hard to wake up. It looked good once you got it going though.

[@johnmcgreevy742]

Thanks for the video! I enjoyed it. Amazing how that truck starts and runs. All the best! Looking forward to your next adventure.

[@robertwells6454]

Love the fast idle shock, those things a cost a MINT! 🤣👌

[@JMassengill]

I see you’re having a heat wave up there! I think you need to give that Green high boy some love as you use it a lot.

[@oldamericaniron5767]

You probably could have used whatever you plow snow with to plow more of the snow away from it but then again you wouldn’t want to accidentally hit it and dent it!

[@ScarletKnightmare]

Supposedly a prosthetic foot helps 🤷👌🏼

[@ricardomayorga700]

Nuthen Iike a good ol Ford 😊

[@dennisolsen4507]

Six minutes into the video... yep sounds like a Ford.

[@RustyIronProjectsRIP]

You can't go wrong with a cherry old ford like that one. As soon as I role my old wood truck it will look as nice as yours. I have it pretty beat up but not quite as much as you.... nice old truck

[@milcommguy5927]

Thanks for posting

[@michaelnault5905]

They're always hard to start after the warranty expires :-)

[@stevenpalmer8140]

This truck invented the term 'trusty an rusty ' such loyalty ... Like to see a Tesla do that 👌

[@roypearce6968]

Yes might not look nice but is a runner. All good to see your a1 fleet great video 👍

[@toddrouch7526]

You're hilarious!!🤣😂🤣😂

[@ralphjonesog7149]

Another epic video the ol greenbean is a legend 👌🏻

[@davedavis366]

My father used to have a 67 Ford F-250 😊8 ft Stepside , makes me want to get one whatching you

[@StoicFighter]

man that thing is beat up

[@Goomer]

The return of the peanut butter lid, might start a little quicker with some jelly. It was 4 degrees this morning here, how cold up there?

[@blindtomsadventures2067]

Put it in the catch up

[@ontimethatsme]

She's a gooden! Heck if ya put that ole girl in granny gear, that battery and starter will get ya home. lol

[@garyeverhart2260]

I live in Kansas and Kansas been in a drought all winter we haven't have too much snow this year just a little dusting where I live

[@MP-io7yj]

Me to as much as I hate snow I'll take it at this point

[@Becca2334]

Sweet Ford Trucks🌝

[@notagain8661]

So that's a Cold start! The other ones should say Old start! 😆

[@brucebonkowski9568]

Why not attach the exhaust to line and run a stack on right side

[@andrewread8370]

You need to scrap a 2 x 2 square in your windshield and you be a Boston driver

[@garyeverhart2260]

We have lots of '60s and 40s and 50 weather this year no snow in October in October November or December or January this little Dusty's

[@bobcrawford5083]

lots of snow..what part of Alaska do you live?

[@truckerkevthepaidtourist]

What size motors in that one? No choke probably?

[@justinontman]

Some trucks just like to be at operating temp before they start lol.

[@anthonynapier4668]

👍 👍

[@tjeffjenkins6226]

I had faith.

[@treverwhetzel9603]

Oh that poor starter motor!

[@danfisher7856]

I get a kick out of you avoiding all copyrighted terms like vroom vroom stick.

[@morgansword]

A stove pipe under the pan would of been quicker as I'm sure its not wearing a alaska necktie. I kinda was surprised it didn't hit quicker.... I think that the points were a tad damp and not sending juice to the plugs always..... Which was fords biggest mistake, the 300 six, any FE block engine or the 7.3 diesel? Everyone of them that had oil on the crankshaft was or is still running... frigging okies really diggem!

[@buckshot4428]

The poor old gal has a bad case of arthritis.

[@sergiodiaz2098]

it has some broken shoulders bones, you'll notice when he opens the hood.

[@calebguess8798]

Referring to old peg leg about the snow banks?

[@medicaided42]

probly had too much battery

[@teddyhammack2195]

That girl needs a little loving to look better,hahaha.

[@kevinbialkowski3694]

Even as starting fluid pyroil sucks. Idk what its good for lol

[@prevost8686]

You used the lid off of a jar of creamy peanut butter instead of crunchy. I thought everyone knew that you’re supposed to use a crunchy PB lid. Just some sarcasm on my part to illustrate how nit picky the comment section can be.👍

[@jamesfarthing4335]

If your plug wires are old and wet it won't start

[@allenray99]

first and last

[@brucebonkowski9568]

Why aren't you finding body panels get sometow trûg
