Whoever gets their driveways plowed by this guy* probably has a very oily driveway.

* Actual vehicle not pictured. I just found this on GIS.

The oil is just self rustproofing.

Hey now. The leaks on V8 models can include coolant leaks, which are super helpful in de-icing driveways.

Neither was i, though it is pretty cool show, they've kept the drama level lower than most and you get to see some serious wheelin'

I'll have to check it out then. I've only seen the promos, and it came off as very fake-drama-y.

There's a bit of it - you know there's always going to be a bit of it because TV.

But it's pretty cool. And the one's that are the most annoying get paid back for their stupidity. Alaska appears to be a very unforgiving place. I also think if you could classify "lower 48-ers" as a race vs Full Time Alaska Residents, the Alaskan's would be racist as all hell.

5 teams, only 1 is from the "Lower 48", the other 4 haven't liked him from the get go.

Looks like an old 200TDi. Haven't seen one of those for years.

That was just what I could find on GIS. The one I saw was a Discovery II.

Ye', I'm just happy seeing an old 200TDi. They were noisy and many said underpowered and were soon replaced by the 300TDi.

I've seen Disco II in many guises but never a snow plough. Glad they being put to proper use and not just on school runs with the rug rats.

That doesn't surprise me. My best friend had been stationed in Fairbanks, AK for about a year and a half. He loves it (mostly), but things are VERY different there.

I actually grew up with a guy who is now an Alaska State Trooper. I keep waiting for him to appear on the show lol.

Let me know what you think of that show tho, maybe I'm just blinded by seeing ACTUAL off roading happening on tv.
