When I started Mudrunner I thought, Who would play a game this simple.......then 3 months later I was still playing it I was hooked. Then I found Snowrunner and it was the exact sequel I had in mind. When I played MR I thought how cool if it had so and so, and then Snowrunner has it, and more.
@@zielonythewolf5069 As I understand that feature is simply not in the game. Some DLC with the Sherp has it, but that's it. :( The BTR should have a snorkel option to compensate for it. Although it's OP enough already.
I mean, it does have a straight-up OP grip (mud friction rating of 8 while most mud tires are around 3), so it's a needed compromise to balance it out.
This was a major grinds at the beginning. I struggled a lot getting around the maps but once you get through all the tasks and get up to a higher level, you can finally get that perfect truck - Driving around, picking up and dropping off deliveries is extremely satisfying.
I still didn't progress that much in Snowrunner but till now the Royal BM17 is my favourite, it might be a bad truck compared to one of the best off-road trucks but it can do the job without getting stuck in the mud every 10 seconds.
@@alexanderwren1732 yeah the lack of diff definitely ruins it and it's unstable too if you are not too careful it can flip on it's side, none the less it's still a good truck in my opinion.
I work with a Freightliner 108SD which is the little brother of the 114SD, and I can tell that this truck can actually go anywhere, I do a lot of mud/snowy roads as well as some offroad with it. For a truck that weight 14800kg, it is surprising
I personally use the Azov 10x10, whatever it's called. The only issue with it is the low, far overhanging front bumper, causes it to stick briefly in some dips, but with it's ten wheel drive, tight turning radius thanks to six wheel steering, and ability to have a bed, with a crane, and pull a trailer, it's the best truck to me. Can have any tires as well, and gets pretty good gas mileage.
The Loaf should be in this list. Horse of a vehicle and best thing since sliced bread. Strongest Winch in the game. Always rolls back onto its wheels. Turning circle of a house fly. Cheap and easy to get. Lightweight and can be towed behind your main truck as a backup vehicle without slowing you down. Able to climb anything. Only negative = deep mud struggles.
Kolob 74941 was a life saver in the beginning of the game. Azov 5319 was expected to be something much better. I hated because of its terrible turning radius and because it would get stuck easily thanks to its protruding nose. Azov 64131: Terrible turning radius, and too long for no good reason. Tayga 6436 was by far my favorite. With a single truck you can finish the whole game. It can do everything.
Tayga rules the world for sure but the Voron AE-4380 is pretty amazing too, even faster but slightly smaller wheels. If speed is not as important but versatility is, the Voron D-53233 takes the cake. It's like the AE-4380 but a bit longer so it can have crane + bed + trailer but off-road gearbox only. The Azov 5319 rounds out this powerful squad of trucks with insane pulling power and pretty much the same speed. If it had a bigger fuel tank I would put it on 1 or 2. Kolob is nice but in the extreme conditions that warrant that truck I'll usually choose the CAT 745C with fuel in combination with another truck to pull the trailer. Azov 64131 helped me out big time in the beginning of the game but once I got the 5319, it just felt painfully slow.
I love the pacific p16, the insane amount of power it can have offsets the lack of awd, however it’s options for attachments is lacking, it’s a very solid heavy hauler truck, and can go basically anywhere you point it even without chained tires. Another one I like for it’s utility is the krs bandit, don’t get me wrong, it’s tendency to flip is extremely annoying, this can be nullified or even mostly removed as a factor when the crane is removed, or just positioned over the bed. And because of its permanent awd and diff lock it’s very handy in the early to mid game. It’s ability to take basically any and every attachment is also a massive boon.
After using both the p12 and p16. They feel very similar but i think i may prefer the p12 for the AWD. Do you think the p16s lack of AWD and attachments is worth it?
I used the P16 so damn much when I got it, I can get that truck into and out of some the trickiest places lmao it's so wide that it only tips in the worst possible conditions. If they ever give it AWD it will be O.P.
The Azov 64131 was the first truck I bought, I literally sold everything I'd found. I don't use it as much now as I have loads of other trucks, but it's my go to rescue truck, and hauling in the worst conditions.
Sad not to see the f750 not on this list. Now that it got an engine upgrade it is my favorite scout if even my favorite vehicle in the game. With it’s capability of crane and 1 piece flatbed it’s perfect for those missions.
The 745C is a childhood dream for me. The toy car of this car was one of my favorites as a kid. I haven't finished searching yet so I haven't been able to get my hands on one, but I would love to ride one.
My favorite truck is the loadstar, I’m a noob and I use it to transport cargo because the trucks that they give you at the beginning of the game are so bad, so I sold one of em and bought this truck, it’s so good
6:10 in real life BTR-80 (as well as its civilian versions, and all older versions like BTR-60PB and BTR-70) is amphibious, sadly not in the game though
The Loadstar and Tuz 16 are 2 of the most useful rescue/recovery vehicles, because they're heavy enough to tow a truck, have an autonomous winch, and for the Loadstar, can use a crane, making it really good at saving flipped trucks. Tayga and both older Vorons are really good all-rounders, but the Azov 5319 gets a skip from me. Fuel tank way too small. 64131 fixes this, but I'd still take the Vorons over it. Same for the Kolobs. Too large, can do the same job with the P16. One truck I'd have included in this list is the ANK MK38. You can find it in Alaska and it's useful from the start, as it can get through mud and snow on its stock form. Fast, decently efficient, very hard to get stuck. Won't deal with mud as well as the larger trucks, but very good while you can't get them.
*sigh* Showing the successors to the legends just makes me want to see the old vehicles (yes, even the A--968m) modded into the game, heh. Good list, though. Very good.
@@SD1ONE I love it. Its only real use is either on Garage point, or modded help, in which case it works for an emergency repair or fuel aid. But it's genuinely fun to drive. XD
My personal favorite until i unlocked the azov 5319 was the voron d-53233, i find it to be almost as capable as the azov, but with better fuel consumption, and a tighter turning radius, its ons, and for me, only, downside is that it flips kinda easy, but as long as you choose the right path, it just keeps going
Everyone underestimates the loadstar 1700 everytime I use it, but I eventually prove then wrong with it, and they ask for help. (I bring out the LS 1700, and their like "Mate. You can't just bring a scout truck and expect it to pull my 6900 Twinsteer!")
It is top tier. That's hard for me to accept but the testings showed that fully upgraded Fleetstar performes better than even Paystar 5070. It doesn't look as good but it's very surprisingly capable. And it's got one of the fastest steering in the game. And those aggressive looking Offroad tires (the second ones) seem to be better in mud than even those Mud tires Paystar's got. Fleetstar is extremely lightweight, which helps too.
That's why I like the Tatra 8x8. It looks like the smaller 8x8s in Mudrunner, and just as tough. Sips fuel, has a large tank, and climbs mountains like a Skyrim horse. It's just slow.
Just bought the game and I’m totally hooked. Haven’t played my other games since. At first I was very problematic with the starting vehicles and I thought I’m never going to progress in the game. But when I sold everything ang bought Azov 64131 it definitely made my life easier. It’s a slow truck but can get everything done. Then rescued Tayga 6436 in Russia and Hummer H2 in Alaska to put icing on the cake.
The khan marshal is still pretty good it being able to not sink to ice (unless you honk) and it being tiny with a 40 gas tank which consumes little of it makes it really good
Honorable Mention: Pacific P12,you do not need any level or unlocked maps to get it,you just need money. It has AWD that can be switched off and difflocks wich are always on as standard..It can Haul easily.
@ the 10x10 still gets stuck on everything while the others go through everything easily. Try driving that thing on the Imandra map, it's a nightmare compared to the other Azovs.
@ no, it really isn't. The ground clearance just is a pain in the ass if you go even a bit offroading. Everything this truck can do, others can do too with better clearance, especially the offroad Azovs. I don't know how often I had to wiggle that truck for minutes to get off a tiny rock or use a winch because it can't pass over anything. Driving along the beaches is almost impossible. And don't even get me started with the ice pieces and crossing the frozen river. It's okay ish if you stick to the paths, it's completely useless for offroading.
I'll take the Voron Grad over Voron AE. It has larger fuel cap, manually adjusted 4x4 and difflock. You have more control and options on this thing man I'm telling you. Shoutout to my Voron Grad gang!
I was a fan of Voron Grad until I gave a serious try with AE. Never going back. As for the limited fuel capacity, this has never been a problem for me. I always leave a fuel tank trailer at key points on the map.
Loadstar doesn't make sense for me since Ford F750 and TUZ Warthog and Actaeon were added. For simple scouting, i prefer smaller scouts like TUZ 166, Don 71 and IH Scout. For rescuing scouts and not very heavy trucks nothing is better than Warthog for me. Or i can use Ford with new V10 Engine. TUZ 420 is too good, so i never use it. I think it's imbalanced a bit) .Azov 64131 is very good! I absolutely agree with you. By the way, I want to brag: I completed the plane mission with Tayga (main truck), Azov 64131 (crane) and I was out of fuel once while was hauling the first part of the plane, so I used Actaeon with fuel tank to fill the Tayga)) That's all I needed
Loadstar is only capable scout which can have scout trailers and In recent updates we have to use that radar trailer to reveal a particular portion of map. I used it in Imandra and it was very useful.
Did you forget the Voron Grad? Once you get the engine upgrade it's one of the best off-road trucks. Never gets stuck and always manages to pull through mud/ice even when loaded.
A nice addon to the 4 axle vehicles would be for the rear axle to counter steer to give tighter steering circle and give steering ability if the front axles go airborne on a ridge. Tire options on the biggest trucks leave a lot to be desired on ice roads. OK for mud, snow, river bottoms and most any other condition except ice roads.
My first bigger truck was Azov 5319. This truck is very bad for the beginners because you have so a big fuel issue and you can't reach little bigger tasks. So still it's one of the best. I think if you find the upgrade for the gear and you install it, you're gonna be able to drive 40 on road. Amazing. Still I would recommend you to play this truck with a friend who carries all the fuel. You'll make a lot of it.
I usually favor the Azov 64131 most of the time even though it's very slow but at the same time the gas mileage is awesome even very powerful to haul heavy cargos tayga is my 2nd favorite
Falls over too easily, thirsty with a small fuel tank and zero bed options. Absolutely shouldn't appear on anyone's Top 10 until it gets the Tayga mud tyres in Phase 2.
@@stev579 nailed it. i really WANT to love the ANK and its a hella fun blasting around maps with it, but it is suitable for only a small handful of missions in it's current form
My first truck i bought was ANK mk38 civilian. Raised suspension and mud tires and it is a beast. Dont use it much due to high gas consumption but whenever i need to go to harsh roads thats my choice
Mostly agree with your choice. Just some minor differences: I prefer the Paystar instead of Freightliner, its the only US Offroad with higher suspension and mud tires. Instead of the Voron AE (which is badass and cooler, no question!), I use the Voron D - its the only russian Offroad that can handle crane+bed+trailer! the tank problem of AZOV 5319 makes it hard to use at all, BUT it makes a great Fuel tank support truck I also prefer the "big" colob with allways on difflock Aaand finally: one of my personal Top5 is definetely the AZOV 73210!
video ideas apache vs yar 87 Dl 3194 vs DL 4520 REMATCH (cos sl 3194 is usable now) ZIKZ 5368 vs Chev Kodiak cat 745c vs tuz 420 (cos their both incredibly capable) great video!!
Perfect. I use almost all of them. And btw, the worst terrain in my opinion is the slipper rock one. Its such pain in the a*s that I thing its also mayby too un-natural.
My pick of the litter, and favorite is actually the Chev. Kodiak. Great power, good on fuel despite smaller engine size. Can go through anything with massive tall snorkel and no overhang. Very nimble on the turning and lots of power. It is the truck that is imo the ultimate scout! Yeah, need to unlock upgrades to get it so... but is worth it! Personal comments of your choices? 10. I remember when the twinsteer was on "worst vehicle" lists! 9. The CAT has one major weakness. Articulated steering. If you slide sideways onto a tree, you don't get off. 8. Freightliner? Yup, just overall nice. 7. Paystar? I like it too. It's mileage surprised me vs other scouts. 6 and 5. TUZ? I dunno. I never really used either much. 4. Tayga, I liked it for 5th wheel as well. 3. Voron? Mmm... approach angles. 2. Azov is a bit chonky for what I like and that fuel. In multiplayer is about only time I look at it. HM... That nose overhang.... ree. 1. I only used it for trailers, the tail overhang was aggrivating.
@@callisto537 have you tried one that is upgraded? It is nimble, double axle goes through anything. Plenty of power with reasonable fuel consumption despite smaller tank, stable, and you can have the driver drowning, yet still be able to drive without taking damage. In the snow maps? You can get anywhere and do anything. It has really great speed as well. Double cargos makes it one of the best early map explorers I have found, especially for clearing blockages. Kodiak is how I scout and clear, then I can use the big trucks for the big jobs. But it just needs some upgrading to really shine. Even stock, not too bad of a scout, but won't be mud and snowing heavy til you get that 4wd.
MarkusReese I get it, you just like the truck, but I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone else because of its niche use, there are other trucks available early on that just make the experience more enjoyable. I constantly use 4 vehicles at all times, depending on the mission,
@@callisto537 Well, I guess that is the difference of opinions. I like it and most people I know / play with that I say give it a try usually end up liking it a lot too. You do get it fairly easily along with the key upgrades. I don't think it is niche at. Early in map during exploration and clearing phase is why I say it is so good because it can pretty much get anywhere with small loads, no problems. Have you tried beating up on it and flogging it? Yeah, there are others that can haul more and tow bigger loads, but when cleaning all them early small missions and hitting exploration points on a map? It is as nimble as a scout, without the getting stuck like one.
MarkusReese ok I get it, you wanted a small capable off-roader that you could use as a scout and deliver small cargo when needed. I haven’t experienced a need for such a vehicle. I use Yar as a scout to discover watchtowers and do contests that require you to go off road into the mountains, I don’t use scouts for anything else, it sits in my garage most of the times. And then I use three different trucks; my smallest one is Tayga when I need speed and maneuverability it has a big gas tank, it’s stable and relative to its size has big 51” tires. My “mid sized” truck used to be BM17 before I sold it for the lack of mud tires and purchased AZOV 64131, which I use for Alaska to do almost all missions, it’s rarely feels challenged, it has enough power to haul big cargo and doesn’t need upgrades. And my biggest truck is P12, I bought it because those 57” tires (all terrain) allowed me to start doing some missions in Alaska (chained weren’t available yet), my BM17 struggled a lot in Alaska mainly because I refused to raise it-tippy enough already, and no mud tires. I use P12 for crane missions mostly, I would definitely use P12 more but it’s long wheel base doesn’t do well in tight terrain. Generally speaking I think this game is biased toward bigger trucks, I find them more enjoyable because they offer a little faster than snail pace progression :)
I'm progressing EXTREMELY slowly, I'm still using the Fleetstar as my main truck lol. Mostly because I'll spend hours on one delivery (mission). Idk why, because I'm a nerd and it's fun I guess
Number one is great, but put a fuel tank on the back of it and it is very easily tipped over. I used this truck in Wisconsin, on the new map to tow the generator trailer, and I had the fuel tank on it. As soon as you hit uneven surface, it will fall over very quickly.
One thing i found out is they gonna drain gas when they stuck in deep snow, the more struggle the more gas will consumed Unless your truck consume gas little by little.
I do most of the scouting and easy work with the TUZ 16 and the Fleetstar, and for the biggest loads I'll break out some of the others like the Twinsteer, Royal, Paystar and the big Pacific. I prefer the game to have a gritty old-timer feel so don't like the shiny newer looking trucks.
@ the ANK and Step 310E are newer than 1970. The ANK is 90s and the Step 310E is early 80s
3 роки тому
so ya the zil truck started in 1966 the E variant is as you said but i gave it a pass because of its beginning production run. the ank looks like the kaiser m109 thats is what i mistook it for. but again i didn't really use its been a while now ,i am playing mods. I did manage to play all the way through michigan to imandra with this set up. Myself i primarily used the paystar, step310 . int 1700 and load star. gmc 9500 , kahn loaf and f750
@ The Imandra map was so terrible to get around on that I started using the Vorons, Tayga and White Western Star all the time. Ugh, I hate that Imandra map - I just finished it yesterday after months of working on it, and I've been clearing out the trailers today so I have funds for new trucks.
The tatarin is the best scout in the game. It can handle any terrain except super deep water without any significant speed reduction, it can haul any truck or trailer with any winch, and it's just OP in general
yeah but it sometimes stuck on little rocks because it's front wheel has no drive and most of the weight is at front...so it struggles to climb over such rocks where other trucks can go with ease...but It still has a true big rig feel to it and that horn is IMO best in game.
IMO the Azov 64131 is the best vehicle in the game, you can get from day-1 (you just have switch to the russian map) and has low fuel consumption/bug fuel tank, although it’s slow, it could never stuck anywhere...
Im old school lol. I like the older trucks like the Kodiak and the international loadstar 1700. And the freightliner is alil newer but i like it too. The international trucks are atvthe top of my list for just looking cool as hell. Some reason their my favorite trucks
Just go to drowned lands once you find the garage in the first map of Michigan. You can find Tyaga there. Then bring it back to Michigan and you can literally do complete the whole map and almost all the tasks with that 1 truck alone. Keep hunting for upgrades specially the suspension so that you can fit bigger tyres, and then atleast u wont be stuck much in mud in the game and overall progression will be much faster. Happy off-roading ✌🏼
or just reach level 6 and unlock azov 64131 which works better even without any upgrades, if you're short on funds then sell highway trucks like GMC and Transtar and you're good to go....but it's only recommended for easy mode.
@@SD1ONE thanks for the reply. Yes we can do that but going to level 6 will take a lot of time, whereas we can get the Tyaga from Drowned lands at level 2 which is far more superior than the GMC which we get in the beginning. Btw i am also gonna get Avoz 64131 once i reach level 6 😊👌🏼
I’m a little late to the party, but I think the ank can fill the same roll as the azov 5319 for hauling time trials. Especially with the taiga tires available on it. It’s in the same spot with fuel consumption, but in terrain that would require low gear for most other trucks, it just runs like a bat out of hell through. No need to even put the off-road gear box, take the high range for slightly better milage and live on the edge. Not as stable or versatile as the azov though since it can only have a sideboard bed.
What u picked for #1 is the right choice. I have better trucks, but I still use it. Its also super resistant to water because the snorkel is on top of the truck.
I run the twin steer bandit for most things with the repair parts and fuel cage on the roof. It has a crane already and with the mud tires is goes anywhere
I'm surprised the Azov 73210 isn't on here. In my opinion it's even better than the 64131. Has good power and fuel economy and 10x10 has insane traction. The only downside is if you're not careful the nose will catch on just about any imperfection in the road

With a hull design body shape like that the Tatarin should be fully amphibious, no snorkel is absurd.
Tatarin is based off a civilian version of BTR-80, which both are amphibious in real life. I do wish that was represented in-game.
@@gammafox5431 this is what I was thinking, why add in an amphibious apc and not let it ride in the water?

I love that the Loadstar in this game. The first truck I got paid to drive was a 1968 1600 when I was 16 back in 1998.
Thats pretty awesome.

I still didn't progress that much in Snowrunner but till now the Royal BM17 is my favourite, it might be a bad truck compared to one of the best off-road trucks but it can do the job without getting stuck in the mud every 10 seconds.

Kolob 74941 was a life saver in the beginning of the game.
Azov 5319 was expected to be something much better. I hated because of its terrible turning radius and because it would get stuck easily thanks to its protruding nose.
Azov 64131: Terrible turning radius, and too long for no good reason.
Tayga 6436 was by far my favorite. With a single truck you can finish the whole game. It can do everything.
Tayga is goated i keep looking for other trucks to use but none really seem as versatile
Tayga rules the world for sure but the Voron AE-4380 is pretty amazing too, even faster but slightly smaller wheels. If speed is not as important but versatility is, the Voron D-53233 takes the cake. It's like the AE-4380 but a bit longer so it can have crane + bed + trailer but off-road gearbox only. The Azov 5319 rounds out this powerful squad of trucks with insane pulling power and pretty much the same speed. If it had a bigger fuel tank I would put it on 1 or 2.
Kolob is nice but in the extreme conditions that warrant that truck I'll usually choose the CAT 745C with fuel in combination with another truck to pull the trailer.
Azov 64131 helped me out big time in the beginning of the game but once I got the 5319, it just felt painfully slow.
Tayga is still #1 in my heart.
Mine has saved my ass more than any other truck even my big ass CAT which has had to pull the Tayga out only one time
True
Same for me
Tayga 6436 and tuz 420 is just the best combo you can have in snowrunner
It's unstoppable and unkillable lol
I love the pacific p16, the insane amount of power it can have offsets the lack of awd, however it’s options for attachments is lacking, it’s a very solid heavy hauler truck, and can go basically anywhere you point it even without chained tires.
Another one I like for it’s utility is the krs bandit, don’t get me wrong, it’s tendency to flip is extremely annoying, this can be nullified or even mostly removed as a factor when the crane is removed, or just positioned over the bed. And because of its permanent awd and diff lock it’s very handy in the early to mid game. It’s ability to take basically any and every attachment is also a massive boon.

The Azov 64131 was the first truck I bought, I literally sold everything I'd found. I don't use it as much now as I have loads of other trucks, but it's my go to rescue truck, and hauling in the worst conditions.
Azov 64131 is by best sruck
I just bought it after watching this video. It sure makes Michigan easy 😂
Sad not to see the f750 not on this list. Now that it got an engine upgrade it is my favorite scout if even my favorite vehicle in the game. With it’s capability of crane and 1 piece flatbed it’s perfect for those missions.
Tatarin SHOULD swim! It even has a little door in the back for water pump and obviously has boat like body
Ikr it’s stupid
There is a mod for one with a roof snorkel and all kinds of extra power and customization. Its like a submarine on 51" tires lol
It can swim in real life, it’s an APC
@@thecarindustry9357 it beeing an apc doesnt meen that it floats
@@Chernochegger It bring a GAZ59037A based on a BTR80 chassis means it should be able to go 100km/h on land and 10km/h on water.
I use an fully upgraded International Fleetstar. I know it is a pretty underrated truck, but I can do almost everything with it!
My go to truck even though I haven't progressed very far yet lol
The 745C is a childhood dream for me.
The toy car of this car was one of my favorites as a kid.
I haven't finished searching yet so I haven't been able to get my hands on one, but I would love to ride one.
My favorite truck is the loadstar, I’m a noob and I use it to transport cargo because the trucks that they give you at the beginning of the game are so bad, so I sold one of em and bought this truck, it’s so good
Download the Big Bob mod, its wayyyy better
How did you level up fast?
6:10 in real life BTR-80 (as well as its civilian versions, and all older versions like BTR-60PB and BTR-70) is amphibious, sadly not in the game though
The Loadstar and Tuz 16 are 2 of the most useful rescue/recovery vehicles, because they're heavy enough to tow a truck, have an autonomous winch, and for the Loadstar, can use a crane, making it really good at saving flipped trucks.
Tayga and both older Vorons are really good all-rounders, but the Azov 5319 gets a skip from me. Fuel tank way too small. 64131 fixes this, but I'd still take the Vorons over it.
Same for the Kolobs. Too large, can do the same job with the P16.
One truck I'd have included in this list is the ANK MK38. You can find it in Alaska and it's useful from the start, as it can get through mud and snow on its stock form. Fast, decently efficient, very hard to get stuck. Won't deal with mud as well as the larger trucks, but very good while you can't get them.
The ANK is like an american version of the Voron. I mainly use it as fuel support because it has a really fast high gear.
*sigh* Showing the successors to the legends just makes me want to see the old vehicles (yes, even the A--968m) modded into the game, heh.
Good list, though. Very good.
A-968m was such a troll vehicle...I wish devs add that vehicle in those new trials maps, I mean those maps are kinda troll as well.
@@SD1ONE I love it. Its only real use is either on Garage point, or modded help, in which case it works for an emergency repair or fuel aid.
But it's genuinely fun to drive. XD
I as well miss the vehicles and logging missions from mudrunner
Schazmen Rassir Yeager you can cheese the garage with 5e fridge and recovering and recalling, good times
@@twingolord REcover and recall? Pff, only if I don't have a choice. The car's for a funstrating challenge, not teleporting!
My personal favorite until i unlocked the azov 5319 was the voron d-53233, i find it to be almost as capable as the azov, but with better fuel consumption, and a tighter turning radius, its ons, and for me, only, downside is that it flips kinda easy, but as long as you choose the right path, it just keeps going
ngl the Navistar is my favorite heavy due to the fact it was the only truck I used for black water and Alaska, and it never gave up on me
Love the Navi it's my go to rescue truck, Plus it's a damn submarine sometimes
Everyone underestimates the loadstar 1700 everytime I use it, but I eventually prove then wrong with it, and they ask for help. (I bring out the LS 1700, and their like "Mate. You can't just bring a scout truck and expect it to pull my 6900 Twinsteer!")
The fleet star you get for free is easily my main man. It definitely ain’t top Tier but it rarely fails me
You should travel to Russia and get the Tayga as soon as possible, one of the best.
It is top tier. That's hard for me to accept but the testings showed that fully upgraded Fleetstar performes better than even Paystar 5070. It doesn't look as good but it's very surprisingly capable. And it's got one of the fastest steering in the game. And those aggressive looking Offroad tires (the second ones) seem to be better in mud than even those Mud tires Paystar's got. Fleetstar is extremely lightweight, which helps too.
@@reddevil1540 all those "russian" trucks are too op.
That's why I like the Tatra 8x8. It looks like the smaller 8x8s in Mudrunner, and just as tough. Sips fuel, has a large tank, and climbs mountains like a Skyrim horse. It's just slow.
Just bought the game and I’m totally hooked. Haven’t played my other games since. At first I was very problematic with the starting vehicles and I thought I’m never going to progress in the game. But when I sold everything ang bought Azov 64131 it definitely made my life easier. It’s a slow truck but can get everything done. Then rescued Tayga 6436 in Russia and Hummer H2 in Alaska to put icing on the cake.
The khan marshal is still pretty good it being able to not sink to ice (unless you honk) and it being tiny with a 40 gas tank which consumes little of it makes it really good
It has an 11 gallon gas tank now😒
@@patrickmattingly214 😂
He meant 40 litres, which is 11 gallons.
@@imrekalman9044 duhhhhh. Ty brotha
How you gonna do the paystar like that she got me through the worst situations 😂
My best truck in the game is Azov 64131 and my second is Tayga.
A love these two trucks.🥰👍
Honorable Mention: Pacific P12,you do not need any level or unlocked maps to get it,you just need money. It has AWD that can be switched off and difflocks wich are always on as standard..It can Haul easily.
Voltei a usar o Step 310E muito bom, com Voron 64 e GMC com AWD ficou perfeito
The 10x10 azov has become quite good recentle compared to launch. The overhang of the cab doesn't get in the way as much as it used to.
yup i used it... it's very good now... also theek improved derry
@@SD1ONE I'll have to check that out.
@ the 10x10 still gets stuck on everything while the others go through everything easily. Try driving that thing on the Imandra map, it's a nightmare compared to the other Azovs.
@ no, it really isn't. The ground clearance just is a pain in the ass if you go even a bit offroading. Everything this truck can do, others can do too with better clearance, especially the offroad Azovs. I don't know how often I had to wiggle that truck for minutes to get off a tiny rock or use a winch because it can't pass over anything. Driving along the beaches is almost impossible. And don't even get me started with the ice pieces and crossing the frozen river. It's okay ish if you stick to the paths, it's completely useless for offroading.
I'll take the Voron Grad over Voron AE. It has larger fuel cap, manually adjusted 4x4 and difflock. You have more control and options on this thing man I'm telling you. Shoutout to my Voron Grad gang!
I was a fan of Voron Grad until I gave a serious try with AE. Never going back. As for the limited fuel capacity, this has never been a problem for me. I always leave a fuel tank trailer at key points on the map.
@@Mandrag0ras that's the problem. You're almost not gonna need a fuel trailer when you use the Grad properly. Smh
Loadstar doesn't make sense for me since Ford F750 and TUZ Warthog and Actaeon were added. For simple scouting, i prefer smaller scouts like TUZ 166, Don 71 and IH Scout. For rescuing scouts and not very heavy trucks nothing is better than Warthog for me. Or i can use Ford with new V10 Engine. TUZ 420 is too good, so i never use it. I think it's imbalanced a bit) .Azov 64131 is very good! I absolutely agree with you.
By the way, I want to brag: I completed the plane mission with Tayga (main truck), Azov 64131 (crane) and I was out of fuel once while was hauling the first part of the plane, so I used Actaeon with fuel tank to fill the Tayga)) That's all I needed
Loadstar is only capable scout which can have scout trailers and In recent updates we have to use that radar trailer to reveal a particular portion of map. I used it in Imandra and it was very useful.
@@SD1ONE I just don't use American cars in Russia (except Ford F750) and Russian in USA. So i had to use KHAN Loaf for carrying exploration unit)
Just unlocked the Freightliner 114SD and it's my new favourite truck!!!!
The 10 wheel Azov is most stable platform for large crane
Yup...and Now it's nose is also fixed, it does not create as much trouble as it was before.
It would have been perfect if it was available at least from the middle of the game
it can also fit bed+crane+trailer
The Voron D-53233 is by far my most favorite truck. I rarely get any problems with it. It can get through nearly anything with ease.
Did you forget the Voron Grad? Once you get the engine upgrade it's one of the best off-road trucks. Never gets stuck and always manages to pull through mud/ice even when loaded.
A nice addon to the 4 axle vehicles would be for the rear axle to counter steer to give tighter steering circle and give steering ability if the front axles go airborne on a ridge. Tire options on the biggest trucks leave a lot to be desired on ice roads. OK for mud, snow, river bottoms and most any other condition except ice roads.
That Loadstar wheelie cracks me up every time! 😄😂😄
I used to drive cat 740's and other similar vehicles for a living. They don't get around quite as well as you'd think in real life.
My first bigger truck was Azov 5319. This truck is very bad for the beginners because you have so a big fuel issue and you can't reach little bigger tasks. So still it's one of the best. I think if you find the upgrade for the gear and you install it, you're gonna be able to drive 40 on road. Amazing. Still I would recommend you to play this truck with a friend who carries all the fuel. You'll make a lot of it.
I usually favor the Azov 64131 most of the time even though it's very slow but at the same time the gas mileage is awesome even very powerful to haul heavy cargos tayga is my 2nd favorite
International loadstar is just insane I’ve pulled a fuel tanker out with mine in Alaska I think it was
No ones gonna mention that the ANK MK38 absolutely shouldve been in this video? With all the upgrades i still to this day have not got it stuck.
Falls over too easily, thirsty with a small fuel tank and zero bed options. Absolutely shouldn't appear on anyone's Top 10 until it gets the Tayga mud tyres in Phase 2.
@@stev579 nailed it. i really WANT to love the ANK and its a hella fun blasting around maps with it, but it is suitable for only a small handful of missions in it's current form
My first truck i bought was ANK mk38 civilian. Raised suspension and mud tires and it is a beast. Dont use it much due to high gas consumption but whenever i need to go to harsh roads thats my choice
Thank you very much for this information, it is very useful for a beginner like me.
Mostly agree with your choice.
Just some minor differences:
I prefer the Paystar instead of Freightliner, its the only US Offroad with higher suspension and mud tires.
Instead of the Voron AE (which is badass and cooler, no question!), I use the Voron D - its the only russian Offroad that can handle crane+bed+trailer!
the tank problem of AZOV 5319 makes it hard to use at all, BUT it makes a great Fuel tank support truck
I also prefer the "big" colob with allways on difflock
Aaand finally: one of my personal Top5 is definetely the AZOV 73210!
He said in the video that Freightliner can dominate terrain. You don't need mudtires on the Freightliner.
your content is great!
would love to see you play euro truck simulator 2
video ideas
apache vs yar 87
Dl 3194 vs DL 4520 REMATCH (cos sl 3194 is usable now)
ZIKZ 5368 vs Chev Kodiak
cat 745c vs tuz 420 (cos their both incredibly capable)
great video!!
I used the Twin Steer in Maine and that thing is awesome for crossing the Lowlands water crossings.
Well either pacific P16 or P12 should of been in the list, p12 really is capable, p16 is a monster with the best mud tires.
It is both just like kolobs it also lacks chained wheels and 8x8 Azovs can easily replace those super heavy trucks in my opinion
@@SD1ONE yeah you are often right, anyway i do use the azov.
YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! What was that sick background music?!?
Lmao I thought this was gta for a second😂
Perfect. I use almost all of them. And btw, the worst terrain in my opinion is the slipper rock one. Its such pain in the a*s that I thing its also mayby too un-natural.
it's a nightmare without chained tires....I won't even bother with chained if it's not for those sections
Very Useful video was playing for long time but been quite sometime I stopped playing… but soon will release on PS5 with 60FBS 4K cant wait for it
My pick of the litter, and favorite is actually the Chev. Kodiak. Great power, good on fuel despite smaller engine size. Can go through anything with massive tall snorkel and no overhang. Very nimble on the turning and lots of power. It is the truck that is imo the ultimate scout! Yeah, need to unlock upgrades to get it so... but is worth it!
Personal comments of your choices?
10. I remember when the twinsteer was on "worst vehicle" lists!
9. The CAT has one major weakness. Articulated steering. If you slide sideways onto a tree, you don't get off.
8. Freightliner? Yup, just overall nice.
7. Paystar? I like it too. It's mileage surprised me vs other scouts.
6 and 5. TUZ? I dunno. I never really used either much.
4. Tayga, I liked it for 5th wheel as well.
3. Voron? Mmm... approach angles.
2. Azov is a bit chonky for what I like and that fuel. In multiplayer is about only time I look at it.
HM... That nose overhang.... ree.
1. I only used it for trailers, the tail overhang was aggrivating.
MarkusReese Kodiak really? I mean I don’t want to force you to use anything fancy pansy but even Fleetstar 2070 from the same map can make you doubt
@@callisto537 have you tried one that is upgraded? It is nimble, double axle goes through anything. Plenty of power with reasonable fuel consumption despite smaller tank, stable, and you can have the driver drowning, yet still be able to drive without taking damage.
In the snow maps? You can get anywhere and do anything. It has really great speed as well. Double cargos makes it one of the best early map explorers I have found, especially for clearing blockages.
Kodiak is how I scout and clear, then I can use the big trucks for the big jobs. But it just needs some upgrading to really shine. Even stock, not too bad of a scout, but won't be mud and snowing heavy til you get that 4wd.
MarkusReese I get it, you just like the truck, but I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone else because of its niche use, there are other trucks available early on that just make the experience more enjoyable. I constantly use 4 vehicles at all times, depending on the mission,
@@callisto537 Well, I guess that is the difference of opinions. I like it and most people I know / play with that I say give it a try usually end up liking it a lot too. You do get it fairly easily along with the key upgrades. I don't think it is niche at. Early in map during exploration and clearing phase is why I say it is so good because it can pretty much get anywhere with small loads, no problems.
Have you tried beating up on it and flogging it? Yeah, there are others that can haul more and tow bigger loads, but when cleaning all them early small missions and hitting exploration points on a map? It is as nimble as a scout, without the getting stuck like one.
MarkusReese ok I get it, you wanted a small capable off-roader that you could use as a scout and deliver small cargo when needed. I haven’t experienced a need for such a vehicle. I use Yar as a scout to discover watchtowers and do contests that require you to go off road into the mountains, I don’t use scouts for anything else, it sits in my garage most of the times. And then I use three different trucks; my smallest one is Tayga when I need speed and maneuverability it has a big gas tank, it’s stable and relative to its size has big 51” tires. My “mid sized” truck used to be BM17 before I sold it for the lack of mud tires and purchased AZOV 64131, which I use for Alaska to do almost all missions, it’s rarely feels challenged, it has enough power to haul big cargo and doesn’t need upgrades. And my biggest truck is P12, I bought it because those 57” tires (all terrain) allowed me to start doing some missions in Alaska (chained weren’t available yet), my BM17 struggled a lot in Alaska mainly because I refused to raise it-tippy enough already, and no mud tires. I use P12 for crane missions mostly, I would definitely use P12 more but it’s long wheel base doesn’t do well in tight terrain. Generally speaking I think this game is biased toward bigger trucks, I find them more enjoyable because they offer a little faster than snail pace progression :)
The 1 the only c-255 forever in our memory :)
The Azov 64131 is a capable truck. It’s slow but you can tow any type of cargo an aarive to destiny safe and sound. Inlove it.
I'm progressing EXTREMELY slowly, I'm still using the Fleetstar as my main truck lol. Mostly because I'll spend hours on one delivery (mission). Idk why, because I'm a nerd and it's fun I guess
Fleetstar is a beast though in its own way. That truck carried me the first couple maps.
Number one is great, but put a fuel tank on the back of it and it is very easily tipped over. I used this truck in Wisconsin, on the new map to tow the generator trailer, and I had the fuel tank on it. As soon as you hit uneven surface, it will fall over very quickly.
This video made me get into the game and I still watch it
My favourites are the Cat 745C, Tatarin, 6x6 scout and azov 64131.
The caterpillar can drag heavy weight but it’s huge and slow not fun to drive specially with no snorkels
One thing i found out is they gonna drain gas when they stuck in deep snow, the more struggle the more gas will consumed Unless your truck consume gas little by little.
Nice someone noticed the freightliner, underrated but very capable. Also bums me out my Derry 4520 isn't here. Best heavy hauler so far
Seeing this I might get the international loadster
I do most of the scouting and easy work with the TUZ 16 and the Fleetstar, and for the biggest loads I'll break out some of the others like the Twinsteer, Royal, Paystar and the big Pacific. I prefer the game to have a gritty old-timer feel so don't like the shiny newer looking trucks.
Yah, Actually the russian trucks are suppose to be old as some of them are from soviet era and they look stupid when painted with these shiny colors
@ the ANK and Step 310E are newer than 1970. The ANK is 90s and the Step 310E is early 80s
so ya the zil truck started in 1966 the E variant is as you said but i gave it a pass because of its beginning production run.
the ank looks like the kaiser m109 thats is what i mistook it for. but again i didn't really use its been a while now ,i am playing mods. I did manage to play all the way through michigan to imandra with this set up.
Myself i primarily used the paystar, step310 . int 1700 and load star. gmc 9500 , kahn loaf and f750
@ The Imandra map was so terrible to get around on that I started using the Vorons, Tayga and White Western Star all the time. Ugh, I hate that Imandra map - I just finished it yesterday after months of working on it, and I've been clearing out the trailers today so I have funds for new trucks.
My favourite scout is Khan LO4F because i like it skin and its a little bit funny when public transport has 33 mudtires
The tatarin is the best scout in the game. It can handle any terrain except super deep water without any significant speed reduction, it can haul any truck or trailer with any winch, and it's just OP in general
until you have black ice on imandra.
If you take the crane add on of the fleet star GMC paystar you'll find they'll turn much better as the crane takes up some space on the back end
Just swap to the flatbed for paystar. Use it with crane and trailers all the time. It's my go to truck.
The whole point of that portion was to have a crane + bed + trailer
Keep these videos coming because they’re awesome
Also in my opinion a stock beast is the pacific p16. Ive used it for a while now and it goes thru mud like nothing
yeah but it sometimes stuck on little rocks because it's front wheel has no drive and most of the weight is at front...so it struggles to climb over such rocks where other trucks can go with ease...but It still has a true big rig feel to it and that horn is IMO best in game.
@@SD1ONE yeah
I like to think of the tayga as the c-255’s little cousin
Great vid, well made and no hey whatsup guys blah blah blah FTW! :) Will be very helpful with the recent release on XGP, cheers!
IMO the Azov 64131 is the best vehicle in the game, you can get from day-1 (you just have switch to the russian map) and has low fuel consumption/bug fuel tank, although it’s slow, it could never stuck anywhere...
Im old school lol. I like the older trucks like the Kodiak and the international loadstar 1700. And the freightliner is alil newer but i like it too. The international trucks are atvthe top of my list for just looking cool as hell. Some reason their my favorite trucks
same.. old trucks looks the best...I would even include those old soviet monsters that we have in game.
Just go to drowned lands once you find the garage in the first map of Michigan. You can find Tyaga there. Then bring it back to Michigan and you can literally do complete the whole map and almost all the tasks with that 1 truck alone.
Keep hunting for upgrades specially the suspension so that you can fit bigger tyres, and then atleast u wont be stuck much in mud in the game and overall progression will be much faster. Happy off-roading ✌🏼
or just reach level 6 and unlock azov 64131 which works better even without any upgrades, if you're short on funds then sell highway trucks like GMC and Transtar and you're good to go....but it's only recommended for easy mode.
@@SD1ONE thanks for the reply. Yes we can do that but going to level 6 will take a lot of time, whereas we can get the Tyaga from Drowned lands at level 2 which is far more superior than the GMC which we get in the beginning.
Btw i am also gonna get Avoz 64131 once i reach level 6 😊👌🏼
I can’t say it enough but I love all of the spintire/mudrunner games
in my opinion i love the cat 745c because the tires are big and is to op i even use it while exploring mountain river,white valley,pedro bay
I’m a little late to the party, but I think the ank can fill the same roll as the azov 5319 for hauling time trials. Especially with the taiga tires available on it. It’s in the same spot with fuel consumption, but in terrain that would require low gear for most other trucks, it just runs like a bat out of hell through. No need to even put the off-road gear box, take the high range for slightly better milage and live on the edge. Not as stable or versatile as the azov though since it can only have a sideboard bed.
Pretty much any truck with always on diff lock is better with the high range gearbox.
5:03 the yellow one looked like another truck :D
Tayga is the name from one of my Husky's and the Truck itself is just a Beauty too ';.;' ;)
114SD Get the right trailer, the one with four post has a longer tong.
I have never been able to get the kolob stuck
Where is the Ford f750?! Since the upgrade of the new engine, it’s a damn beast
it's either or condition between ford and tuz 16, so I choose tuz but you can choose otherwise
What u picked for #1 is the right choice. I have better trucks, but I still use it. Its also super resistant to water because the snorkel is on top of the truck.
i'm such a massive simp for this game
same
One of the more honorable things to simp for
Thank you for this very intresting guide :-)
The Navistar 5000 is great for heavy haul.
Damn so the truck I just drive because it has a nice interior is a top tier truck lol
3:56
ah yes, the *MOST* valid point
I love the derry 4520, it just looks awesome and it works well for what I need it to fo
I run the twin steer bandit for most things with the repair parts and fuel cage on the roof. It has a crane already and with the mud tires is goes anywhere
I'm surprised the Azov 73210 isn't on here. In my opinion it's even better than the 64131. Has good power and fuel economy and 10x10 has insane traction. The only downside is if you're not careful the nose will catch on just about any imperfection in the road
I still use many variants of the international fleet star. Very versatile and good for everything but broken ice and deep water
