I just used the Pacific P12 to do medium log and medium log trailer through Yukon. Sometimes the truck surprises me, other times it disappoints me, but at the end of the day I got the job done without needing a rescue and it even pulled another truck out of the mud while both were loaded with logs.
Have you used the p512? I've ragged that thing round and it's gotten me places faster than a tayga even with heavy loads, if you're going to make statements then at least be bothered to fact check yourself@@tomasbar1101
A negative that is often overlooked about the Derry 4520 is how its high saddle is the same height as its low saddle, which is very low. Probably one of the lowest high saddles in the game. The legs of high saddle trailers are basically guaranteed to drag.
Many people don’t know the shifting trick, when going uphill or through muds, you can rapidly click the button that allows you to shift (L1) to drastically make the truck move faster, whenever you’re facing obstacles just put it in High and it’ll go straight forward
and even more people dont feel the need to bug abuse in a game that is super easy anyway, we play this game for the offroad experience, if i want to just speed through mud i would download a monster truck mod.
@joelplease9039 it's not abusing a bug, it's making up for the lack of manual shifting in the game. It's very simple to implement, it would make gamers of every sort happier or they don't use it, but the main thing is the Sim wheel aspect. I have a 6 speed shifter for my wheel and the fact that I have to map silly gears to use it is silly. Big letdown.
Liking it doesn't mean it's good though, I haven't used it in forever because of how useless it is. The only real use I see is recovery and even for that there are other trucks that do it just as well while having the ability to stick around for extra cargo space.
for me International HX 520 is AMAZINGLY GOOD. it was one of the first trucks i used for proper gameplay (before that i cheated and tested out every single truck in the game), and International HX 520 fully upgraded did EVERYTHING that kenworth 963 did. it never got stuck never lacked the power. it can cross rivers it can haul heavy trailers. even without awd upgrade it did amazing in the mud
Yeah, it's a good truck, and one of my go-to favs. But the Kenworth takes a three-slot cargo bed (and a crane), will go through way deeper mud, and has fuel on the roof. The Kenworth is also much more capable as a logging truck (crane, frame, and trailer). It's totally subjective, but I find the HX 520's sound track quite annoying. It's combination of a diesel motor idling with a nasty American V8 gas engine revving. But still, I agree, it's a great truck, with that important detail of crane, two slot cargo, and trailer hitch.
In normal mode fuel and fuel tank size are not really a concern. You have a fleet of trucks at your disposal. Make a truck a fuel truck and also leave some fuel trailers at key points. I love the Azov 5 with its 200L of fuel. Yes I have to refuel often but the thing is a beast.
You can easily fix the problem with the Pacific P12 having a weak engine by putting alterrain tires on it thuss giving it more slip in mud. In my opinion it should be placed Higher than It's brother The P16.
Exactly, p12 is a hard truck to use, but when you use it correctly, its a beast. In my opinion, it should be ranked between The Longhorns. Its the best pacific truck.
I usually use the PF512 over both of the other pacific trucks it's a race truck if you have weight on the back and can get into crazy places with it if you can get over the front wheels being dead weight
OHD IIs are the reccomended tire selection for it. They have a higher weight (200kg vs 100kg for ordinary tires) and thats what enables that little bit of slippage and lets it dig into the harder ground underneath mud.
Kenny for sure needs an upgraded engine. Its funny to say that when it actually has the strongest engine in the game but the truck itself is so heavy that even the strongest engine in the game isent strong enough for it.
It does have the second best tire ratings in mud (only behind the Tatarin's mud tires) (outside of the JAT tires maybe), so tire can still handle almost any terrain (as long as it isn't ice)
Each truck has a different set of "Best" equipment though, and each region is made easier by using different equipment. Some regions you _need_ mud tires and top engines just to make it from A to B, other maps make better use of off road tires and more economical engines. Theres really no single "best" set for a given truck.
In a recent update, the p16 got an awd system u can get for it. As well as the two steer. Both r great with it. The p16 was also pretty good overall as well
The Paystar 5600TS is underrated IMO. This beasts through mud and fuel efficiency is much much better when AWD is off. It suits maps which combine roads and dirt (which don't require AWD) but is'nt phased by the occasional mud pit.
It has minuscule tires, quite tippy and drinks fuel like a russian drinks vodka. Severely loses it's pulling power with awd off. It is a wasted potential. Most people is using it as a fuel carrier because it's only good for it.
i like using the K-700 and K-7M for all the mini trailer towing jobs. Never liked using big trucks for those jobs, aesthetically speaking they all seemed overkill for a pulling job like that. So i use the tractors frequently for these jobs. It looks right and they’re very capable for the task.
ok buster the ziks 605r is 1 of the best trucks in the game it gets the job done. I can even go through water taller then the truck itself. Maine is a really good example, faster flowing river going agaist me, while i was hauling logs and medium plants and it made it through no issues
The K710 has one use for me, and thats on maps with collapsing ice, other than the BTR70 clone the K710 with 8 wheels seems to be the only one that can get traction after the ice collapses, its slow, but it does move, and can pull other trucks while doing so
Nah if anything the DAN could even go higher. I still use it today with the multi-purpose platform to give it a crane. It's a very capable, very stable, very fuel efficient truck with a pretty strong engine to boot. Don't sleep on the DAN, it more then holds it's own weight.
I don't have the latest ones like the Atom or the Plad yet but my top 5 heavies are: 1. Azov 7: To me it's by far the best and most useful heavy, it's extremely powerful, pulls so easily even on very steep hills like quarries with heavy weights , its nimble, turns very tight, 10x10 and always on diff makes it a perfect truck for any terrain. 10x10 offers a very strong pull so it's one of the best trucks to save and pull other very heavy trucks and trailers. It is super fuel efficient, can go in very deep water almost to the roof, has tons of add ons, super stable, with active suspension overhang is not that of an issue. It is actually a very op truck for most missions. Only bad for very bumpy rough terrain because of the front lip. 2. Zikz 612: Its a bit clunky to drive and slow but very powerful, capable and stable. Extremely fuel efficient. Has lots of add ons and crane+trailer combos. It's like an Azov 7 on steroids. Once it gets to to 6th gear it pulls without stopping no matter what you carry or pull. 3. Kenworth 963: It has a tad weak engine, stalls on inclines, it is not nimble and slow. But other than that it is a monstrosity, moves like a fortress, sounds blissful, unstoppable on any terrain, has very good add ons and crane combos. Fuel efficient and stable. If only had a stronger engine I would rank it no:2. High suspension and giant tires makes you feel like cheating on most maps. But it basically hates hills, frequent stalls on hills disappoints. 4. Zikz 605: I still think this is the most capable vehicle in the game. Short length, wide axels, super strong engine and no overhang makes it a badass land raider. It can go in very deep water and blue snow, can climb over very high rocks, pulls superheavy trailer over extreme terrain like it's nothing. It is very fuel efficient and stable. It's almost the perfect truck but having no chain tires and only a handful add-ons severely limits it's poteintial. 5. Western star twinsteer: This is the psycho truck of the game. Sure it's long and turns like a cruise ship, sure it's very tippy. But oh boy it is extremely I mean extremely capable. Some limp d..ks use it with 55 tires. Don't do that, always use proper 63" tires and highway transmission. On high gear this thing will fly over mud, snow or water like its nothing. It is also quite fuel efficient with highway transmission. For extreme terrain offroad transmission in high gear in unstoppable, You basically can't get stuck with the Twinsteer. 4 slots by itself so you can recover to garage to rinse and repat on some grindy regions like Yukon to carry lots of cargo fast in a short time. Once you get used to driving it without tipping , other trucks will feel like child's play and you'll rarely tip any truck. It's number five because it is long, hard to maneveur, need to be driven carefully and masterfully and sadly has zero add ons or trailer options. But still, it is a lot better truck than most of the the heavies out there. I really don't like the Derry Special, its smallish looking narrow body annoys me. As if the devs did a mistake while modelling and proportioning it. It also feels quite underpowered, engine screams all the time, slow, turns bad, steers slow, and has traction issues, 3rd axel always slips. I don't like it at all. There are a lot other trucks that offer much better performance and are much faster.
Its funny seing references to Kenny having a weak engine when it actually has the strongest engine available in the game shared with a few trucks. The problem is that Kenny is so big and heavy that not even the best engine in the game is strong enough for it.
@@Shiftry87 It's funny seeing people still comparing trucks by just on their engine power on paper while actually there are lots of variables affecting a trucks real performance. Try pulling two slabs from a steep quarry slope with kenny and see how it struggles while the azov 7 climbs like its nothing. Engine power by itself means nothing in snowrunner. For example azov 6 is unstoppable in this game, it's am 8 engine has 210000ncm, it's the 11th strongest engine, but tuz warthog also has the same engine option, which is light as f.. Do you think they do pull same? not even close. So engine power or p to w ratio don't give you much clue. Gear ratios, number of driven axles, tire softness and weight, effectiveness of the differential lock, weight balance all comes in to factor a trucks performance. Kenny is good because its has giant tires and is a big carrying platform. Performance wise a simple pacific 512 or voron ae blows it out of the water. Also wanderer engine is not the strongest anymore it the 3rd. In summary klenny has a weak engine for itself. PLUS; people are forgetting that kenny is almost only playable with it's strongest engine option. It's other engine options suck so bad they almost make it unplayable, constantly stopping on slight inclines. which is not seen in any other trucks in the game. Kenny definitely needs a troque buff for all of it's engines.
Being experienced on this game does not make a player not to use a specific truck. I've been playing the game for a very long time and I like it. I use it whenever I wan't, not because it is very capable but because I actually like driving it.
Damn, the king down to 4th place wasent expecting that. I dident think it was a guaranteed 1st place but a top 3 for sure. The Kenny at 1st place as mutch as i respects ppl having there own preferences this 1 is a big hell no. Its capable for sure and will get the job done but its big, to big infact which is causing its crippling power problem. The fact that its known to have a power problem when it has the strongest engine in the game really tells u how big and heavy this thing is. On its own unloaded its not as bad but the moment u try to pull a trailer or load any cargo on it its own weight starts to stress the engine and even small rocks will force u to downshift which should not happen with the size of those tyres. This truck is desperatly in need of a unique more powerful engine to compensate for the fact that its also the heaviest truck in the game.
The reason I've grabbed mods is very simple. To make it more realistic, no really the Oshkosh M9010 think it's called the irl DL 4520 is meant to tow Abrams tanks! So having a military S+ engine? Is realistic, the CAT745C can have many attachments irl and makes perfect sense as a rescue/repair vehicle, the Masterdon makes sense as a military fuel carrier as it's been seen doing that, the Kenworth 963 I'm using as a fuel truck as again it's designed to carry crude oil so not too far from its original purpose and so on. To me the vehicles are at times underpowered especially when you've been playing for a while and you're role-playing I've modified my trucks off screen to make them more capable which you would do irl. I don't use anything too OP as it wouldn't be a challenge then but, I do want my vehicles to do their specific jobs better.
cat 770G lacks difflock, versatility and addons yeah obvious but if they gave it difflock, maintenance addon (Which it had IRL), would make it a good support heavy apart from being a portable fuel station (which is probably up for the modders)
ill say that you really cripled the western star 47x nf 1430 by giving it the offroad gearbox, it really shines when using the highrange gearbox in high gear, lots of power that as long as its only shallow mud it will fly out. even more for the wester star twinsteer, stick with stock suspension, slap some duals on it, give it highrange, and it will go fast and strong, bigger tires and offroad suspension is for mud crawling
Hey, great video . I would say Plad is better than 605R and also azov 7 is better than Atom , but that's the beauty about this game - you can play as you want it :) Great Job !
the P512 shouldn't be a heavy though. The w990 is better in every single measurement. For me the Azov Atom is the best heavy/offroad truck! For the super heavies I'm between the plad and Mastodon. The mastodon is the best truck for offroad use but the plad will carry high saddle trailers better as it has almost the double ground clearance.
Honestly to make the 770G more worth while they should double the fuel addon capacity. Most trucks already carry 1800L with most trailers being 200L, and what's the semi trailer, 3700L or something? The 770G having 4000L would make it a worth the effort of getting out to a baron part of the map to have it setup shop as a refuelling hub. But as it is there isn't a reason to take it over other trucks.
not as if, kenny has better options, is bigger (don't stuck on deep mud or river), and can pull more cargo, if U are good at packing it xD but kenny has ONLY ONE, but very important issue: lack of power...
@@PitBull51091I like Kenny a lot and I get why is it appealing to many including me, looks and sounds, the long bed with crane is superior but the lack of power is really frustrating sometimes and that's why ziks better
Personally i really like the PLAD450. Its good and has all the addons you want + extra fuel. The Zikz 605 and the mastadon are just boring to use. And i feel the kenny ain't best tough with its weak engine, its a top 5 truck but the Mastadon is better.
I don't get the Azov Antarctic in the game. Designed for the most hostile environment know to man, without chained tires, full time diff lock, and in that giant cabin they couldn't fit a can of fuel or a tool box, really? And is tippy. Just like its longer version, the FEMM. I fell in love with the Kolob Short Nose, did an awful lot of work with it pulling a super heavy trailer in Maine, Scandinavia and NC. And it easily climbed that impossible uphill in Duncan Bay with the coiled tubing semi, without help from a Tatarin. A helpful truck with a crane can drop a scout fuel trailer on the step deck of a (super) heavy trailer, and fuel becomes irrelevant, even on Hard mode.
I am in the same road about this truck. I am not a fan of articulated steering and even worse this truck is almost like the twinsteer with a boat load of addons.
Theres so many other things they couldve done instead of farming. Concrete trucks, snow plows, an actual tow truck, a garbage truck and tip. Hell, we wouldve preferred to have a cattle transport truck for livestock instead of tedious farming.
I laugh every time someone claims the 963 can't pull a trailer while I'm over here pulling a large trailer full of cargo plus having a fuel carrier addon through mud and places most of my other trucks get stuck in 😂 sounds like a skill issue or people using the wrong tires. Sure it struggles with the biggest heaviest trailers up steep hills but so do 90% of the trucks on this game. Granted I'd still rank the plad and 605r higher but it's still my top 3
i love tatra t815 because it has more addons compared to t813 and I personally agree with this tier list. A question, on what this tier list is based on? the addons of a truck or the performance of a truck? Also right now that everyone speaks good about kenworth 963 I really want to buy season 10
no it won't. Boar is the Ferrari of the heavies, put highway transmission on it and put it in H and it will pull superheavy trailers like comically fast. It is worlds better than the p16.
I would never have the Femm and Kenworth above the Zikz 605R. Ken is always struggling with power, huffing and puffing even without pulling a trailer. Femm is so bad to drive and easy to tip on elevated corners. Other than the crane they don't have any advantages over the 605R. Good luck pulling a trailer with the Ken, it struggles even without it. As for the Femm, it's just a no. Horrible to drive. I would pick anything else before driving that. Zikz 605R is still king of Snowrunner.
I agree with the k963, it's garbage, but the femm is really good, all you need is to know how to drive it. Since the azov antarctic is my favorite truck and I drove it a lot, I got REALLY good at driving articulated trucks and now I barely flip them over. As such the femm is quite literally my nr. 1 truck, simply because if you remove player skill from the equation, it's objectively the best truck in the game.
Ya'll must not be upgrading your Kenworth bc mine never struggles with loads. The only time it slows down is on uphill climbs, but even then it still chugs along. It's easily my go to for almost every task, over any other truck
Judging by your rating and comments about some of the trucks, I feel like you haven't spent enough time driving them. A person who rates trucks and has quite an audience should know that Tatra 813 and 815 should be driven with the stock MSH I tires for best performance. 813 is more capable everywhere and has better suspension than 815 but lacks addons. DAN is a great truck but it gets stuck quite easily in deep mud. Not sure how much time you've spent with some of the trucks but doesn't seem enough.
You're the first person I saw ranking the western star 49X (those 3 trucks or whatever) higher than the tatra t813 xD Personally those trucks were such a let down every single time I tried them, but the tatra t813 is amazing. It has fuel for days, it's one of the most stable trucks in the game, it has the best mud tires in the game and is great in mud (not the best, but definitely in the top 10), had the best engine in the game (when it was released, the 260k torque one), and while it can't have many addons, it can have a bed, or high saddle (and nowadays there really isn't any difference between low and high saddle since you have access to good semi trailers for both, the only advantage low saddle has is the fact that most missions will include low saddle trailers, not high). The paystar 5600ts at 11th place actually made me giggle a bit xD In my experience, that truck is absolutely terrible, It consumes fuel like crazy, it doesn't even perform that well in mud, and it's not even that fast. Personally it ranks in the high 10s, or low 20s. I'd also put the twinsteer about 5 or 6 spots below, simply because of how unstable it is, and the fact that it can't have addons and it can't pull trailers either. It's a one trick pony, if that pony was drunk and always fell over xD It's only saving grace are the speed and the performance in mud, which is very good. I'd also switch the place you put tatra force with azov 73210, since I find the tatra force consistently beating the long azov in more or less every scenario, especially mud performance (and any kind of difficult terrain actually). For the derry special, I found that you can virtually eliminate it's "unstable-ness" by just not raising the suspension. And oh wow, you put the k963 in first place? xD This is the biggest disparity between your list and mine, I personally found it to be absolute garbage, I'd honestly put it in the high 20s. The k963 seems to be no joke one of the least capable trucks in the game. On paper the stats are great, but in practice, this piece of crap actually managed to stall when I was had an empty bed and pulled a regular fuel trailer, up a VERY SLIGHT incline xD It has amazing tires with good size and on paper it should have no problem going through the toughest muds, but in practice it gets stuck in places where even the P12 had no issue. It's a heavy truck that can't pull heavy cargo lol, can't really be used as a recovery vehicle either because it's too big, and you can't use it as a big crane truck because then it's almost useless the moment you need to climb a hill, or go through uneven terrain. I actually hate this truck and it disappoints me every time I give it a try (and I give it a try about once every 2 sessions I play). Honestly think it's one of the worst heavy trucks in the game 🤣
Damn, even with it's fuel tank, p512f is GOAT, i beat with it all non-snow maps, even without AWD it freakin shreds through mud, and you always can take trailer with fuel, so don't you dare disrespect p512
Weak engines? I watched you pull a multiple ton load THROUGH WATER AND UPHILL at a really good pace, what do you want all the trucks to just blow through this at 50mph?
Saying the first cat can't have a trailer is a load of bullshit it does and can have a trailer but only one also another bullshit answer about the truck Pacific 12/16 I've used them and they are perfectly fine there's nothing wrong with them so he's talking a load of bullshit
Cat 745G Kenworth 963 Derry Special Aramatsu Forester Mack Defense White Western Star International Paystar 5600TS The best trucks the game has to offer if anyone is tired of this fake russian 4x4 supremacy in this game.
Nah generally i would say yes to most rankings. But heavy trucks are for the hardest tasks. So you have also compare with the hardest map, Amur. Amur is the endboss and most of your Top 5 will fail dramaticly. Femm has a way to weak steering and a high fuel consumption. Its absolut useless if u have no access to fuel stations. Short trips, yes bad mf, but thats it. Than Kenworth, never understood the rank of this. Yes its big, it sound good, but beside that the fuel consumption is way to high and the power output way to low. Maybe in your Top Ten are trucks i dont like but which are good, but rank of the Tatras is just blasphemic. Tatra T813 is easily Top Ten. The engine power is great and the fuel consumption is hilarious low. Same with tatra force. With the new addon i would put it top 3. in my personal opinion i would put it on first place, because of the same reasons. The engine is an absolut monster and with addon and extra roof fuel it has nearly 700l of fuel. No other truck can drive this far. Maybe he is not the fastest or the best in turning radius, but it can do every job.
Your Kenworth must have a fuel leak because I feel like it's the best for long trips. Massive fuel tank and an average fuel consumption in my opinion. Plus a roof rack for extra fuel
Anything non russian is bad beceause... well.. russian bias and russian devs 😂 if its not bad in mud it has a small fuel tank or horrible fuel consumption or verry tippy. (Or a combination of all of those like 5600ts. One of the best and most versitile trucks held back by all of it)
@@evobsm2328 American trucks are simply not that good. Those are built to make profit, including maintenance needs. Russian trucks are mainly military trucks built to operate anywhere, with minimal maintenance, tough and high performing. Don't blame the game or the developers for that.
Yes, these lists are subjective by nature, and he even claims in the video that this is HIS heavy truck tierlist. It's impossible to create an objective tierlist for the trucks.
OMG the twinsteer is the worst truck in the game. Anything other than pavement, it tips over. Also, the Antarctic truck. Also, the FEMM is terrible. With the best engine, it's still underpowered and drinks fuel. And the articulated steering is terrible.
@@meyes1098 Nathanprovince did some testing and its actually underpowered for its total weight. Its not the worst offender by far, kenny takes the cake on that one.
Twinsteer doesn't tip over with stock suspensions. It's still not great, but when hauling oversized cargo your choice is the Twinsteer, the awful long trailer, or the also not great semi-trailers.
@@ydfhlx5923 Ha ha! There's a reason why trucks are articulated (IRL). They are much harder to flip. The twinsteer is terrible with any suspension because it's long, thin, and non-articulated. There are many, much better choices in the game.
My Kolobs are #1 always. But rarely use them. In fact I only use them in the "That's it you pissed me off, I'm going to get dad" moments 😂
I just used the Pacific P12 to do medium log and medium log trailer through Yukon. Sometimes the truck surprises me, other times it disappoints me, but at the end of the day I got the job done without needing a rescue and it even pulled another truck out of the mud while both were loaded with logs.
Does this mean you'll be doing these ranking vids for the remaining classes too?
Maybe Offroad class, but highway and heavy duty class doesn't have enough trucks for tanking, and some are very similar.
@@CyrusTheContentCreatordo offroad and heavy-duty in the same vid
Do it anyways !!@@CyrusTheContentCreator
For me personally the Pacific P512 PF is a beast, yes the small fuel tank hurts it, but it’s still powerful, and even in mud it still does well.
Its standard tires are 3.0 mud grip tires, so it has more mud grip than even the tayga balloons.
Thank you, anyone who uses it knows it's an absolute gem, and most of the time you don't even need the diff lock
Sorry but only thing Pacific trucks are good at is looking good (in snowrunner)
Have you used the p512? I've ragged that thing round and it's gotten me places faster than a tayga even with heavy loads, if you're going to make statements then at least be bothered to fact check yourself@@tomasbar1101
@@tomasbar1101Then you haven’t used the P512. It is very fast and rarely gets stuck, even though it doesn’t have AWD.

This. Its really the only way since many of the superheavies are just mid.
Liking it doesn't mean it's good though, I haven't used it in forever because of how useless it is. The only real use I see is recovery and even for that there are other trucks that do it just as well while having the ability to stick around for extra cargo space.
We need more heavy duty and off road trucks at this point
i’d like an Autocar DK-64 or DC-9964 for heavy duty or offroad. Maybe the DC could be heavy duty and the DK an offroad.
agreed, we have so few good heavy duties.
The Pacific P16 absolutely carried my hard mode save through Michigan and most of Alaska as my only heavy truck
for me International HX 520 is AMAZINGLY GOOD. it was one of the first trucks i used for proper gameplay (before that i cheated and tested out every single truck in the game), and International HX 520 fully upgraded did EVERYTHING that kenworth 963 did. it never got stuck never lacked the power. it can cross rivers it can haul heavy trailers. even without awd upgrade it did amazing in the mud
Yeah, it's a good truck, and one of my go-to favs.
But the Kenworth takes a three-slot cargo bed (and a crane), will go through way deeper mud, and has fuel on the roof.
The Kenworth is also much more capable as a logging truck (crane, frame, and trailer).
It's totally subjective, but I find the HX 520's sound track quite annoying. It's combination of a diesel motor idling with a nasty American V8 gas engine revving.
But still, I agree, it's a great truck, with that important detail of crane, two slot cargo, and trailer hitch.
In normal mode fuel and fuel tank size are not really a concern. You have a fleet of trucks at your disposal. Make a truck a fuel truck and also leave some fuel trailers at key points. I love the Azov 5 with its 200L of fuel. Yes I have to refuel often but the thing is a beast.
azov 5 is incredible, love that thing.
This. Part of snowrunner is logistics planning, small fuel tank size is not really a valid reason to consider a truck "bad".
My favourite scout with maintenance addon.
I love this channel, and this is an excellent analysis. Thanks.
This dude is on crack with these rankings
You can easily fix the problem with the Pacific P12 having a weak engine by putting alterrain tires on it thuss giving it more slip in mud. In my opinion it should be placed Higher than It's brother The P16.
Exactly, p12 is a hard truck to use, but when you use it correctly, its a beast. In my opinion, it should be ranked between The Longhorns. Its the best pacific truck.
The Kenworth 963 is the same way. Keep the factory 71” all terrain tires and you won’t experience power problems on hills.
I usually use the PF512 over both of the other pacific trucks it's a race truck if you have weight on the back and can get into crazy places with it if you can get over the front wheels being dead weight
OHD IIs are the reccomended tire selection for it. They have a higher weight (200kg vs 100kg for ordinary tires) and thats what enables that little bit of slippage and lets it dig into the harder ground underneath mud.
How does more slip help in Mud?
I love this game....but would be better if they were npc's in the game u know make it more lively , but I honestly love it....
I agree. I miss some "human" interaction 😁
Num 1 is the last on the list i use! My experience it doesnt move unless downhill highways.
Kenny for sure needs an upgraded engine. Its funny to say that when it actually has the strongest engine in the game but the truck itself is so heavy that even the strongest engine in the game isent strong enough for it.
the p16 is free, that makes it a good truck. just plot your routes around the bad terrain and youre golden. 👍🏻
It does have the second best tire ratings in mud (only behind the Tatarin's mud tires) (outside of the JAT tires maybe), so tire can still handle almost any terrain (as long as it isn't ice)
Pacifics carried me through Michigan and Alaska , P16 is beast even tho its only rwd . They deserve to be higher
Cyrus do a video about best tires, engines and gearboxes please 🙏
Each truck has a different set of "Best" equipment though, and each region is made easier by using different equipment. Some regions you _need_ mud tires and top engines just to make it from A to B, other maps make better use of off road tires and more economical engines. Theres really no single "best" set for a given truck.
In a recent update, the p16 got an awd system u can get for it. As well as the two steer. Both r great with it. The p16 was also pretty good overall as well
The Paystar 5600TS is underrated IMO. This beasts through mud and fuel efficiency is much much better when AWD is off. It suits maps which combine roads and dirt (which don't require AWD) but is'nt phased by the occasional mud pit.
It has minuscule tires, quite tippy and drinks fuel like a russian drinks vodka. Severely loses it's pulling power with awd off. It is a wasted potential. Most people is using it as a fuel carrier because it's only good for it.
The best use for it on Hard mode is to carry up to 3000 L of fuel to regions where it is expensive, like Yukon.
The WS 47X NF1424 is my favorite truck. Is small nimble and fast. And I think is perfectly balanced for not making things too easy or too hard.
i like using the K-700 and K-7M for all the mini trailer towing jobs. Never liked using big trucks for those jobs, aesthetically speaking they all seemed overkill for a pulling job like that. So i use the tractors frequently for these jobs. It looks right and they’re very capable for the task.
Brooo I need 1€ after every time you say truck😂😂😂 great video by the way🙏🏻 thnx
Mod the game to realistic specs and this list changes a LOT. It also becomes much more challenging.
ok buster the ziks 605r is 1 of the best trucks in the game it gets the job done. I can even go through water taller then the truck itself. Maine is a really good example, faster flowing river going agaist me, while i was hauling logs and medium plants and it made it through no issues
The K710 has one use for me, and thats on maps with collapsing ice, other than the BTR70 clone the K710 with 8 wheels seems to be the only one that can get traction after the ice collapses, its slow, but it does move, and can pull other trucks while doing so
I feel like nostalgia is doing a lot of heavy lifting by putting the DAN at 13
Nah if anything the DAN could even go higher. I still use it today with the multi-purpose platform to give it a crane. It's a very capable, very stable, very fuel efficient truck with a pretty strong engine to boot.
Don't sleep on the DAN, it more then holds it's own weight.
A suggestion:
The description of the video should include the list of trucks :)
Great vid tho.
I don't have the latest ones like the Atom or the Plad yet but my top 5 heavies are:
1. Azov 7: To me it's by far the best and most useful heavy, it's extremely powerful, pulls so easily even on very steep hills like quarries with heavy weights , its nimble, turns very tight, 10x10 and always on diff makes it a perfect truck for any terrain. 10x10 offers a very strong pull so it's one of the best trucks to save and pull other very heavy trucks and trailers. It is super fuel efficient, can go in very deep water almost to the roof, has tons of add ons, super stable, with active suspension overhang is not that of an issue. It is actually a very op truck for most missions. Only bad for very bumpy rough terrain because of the front lip.
2. Zikz 612: Its a bit clunky to drive and slow but very powerful, capable and stable. Extremely fuel efficient. Has lots of add ons and crane+trailer combos. It's like an Azov 7 on steroids. Once it gets to to 6th gear it pulls without stopping no matter what you carry or pull.
3. Kenworth 963: It has a tad weak engine, stalls on inclines, it is not nimble and slow. But other than that it is a monstrosity, moves like a fortress, sounds blissful, unstoppable on any terrain, has very good add ons and crane combos. Fuel efficient and stable. If only had a stronger engine I would rank it no:2. High suspension and giant tires makes you feel like cheating on most maps. But it basically hates hills, frequent stalls on hills disappoints.
4. Zikz 605: I still think this is the most capable vehicle in the game. Short length, wide axels, super strong engine and no overhang makes it a badass land raider. It can go in very deep water and blue snow, can climb over very high rocks, pulls superheavy trailer over extreme terrain like it's nothing. It is very fuel efficient and stable. It's almost the perfect truck but having no chain tires and only a handful add-ons severely limits it's poteintial.
5. Western star twinsteer: This is the psycho truck of the game. Sure it's long and turns like a cruise ship, sure it's very tippy. But oh boy it is extremely I mean extremely capable. Some limp d..ks use it with 55 tires. Don't do that, always use proper 63" tires and highway transmission. On high gear this thing will fly over mud, snow or water like its nothing. It is also quite fuel efficient with highway transmission. For extreme terrain offroad transmission in high gear in unstoppable, You basically can't get stuck with the Twinsteer. 4 slots by itself so you can recover to garage to rinse and repat on some grindy regions like Yukon to carry lots of cargo fast in a short time. Once you get used to driving it without tipping , other trucks will feel like child's play and you'll rarely tip any truck. It's number five because it is long, hard to maneveur, need to be driven carefully and masterfully and sadly has zero add ons or trailer options. But still, it is a lot better truck than most of the the heavies out there.
I really don't like the Derry Special, its smallish looking narrow body annoys me. As if the devs did a mistake while modelling and proportioning it. It also feels quite underpowered, engine screams all the time, slow, turns bad, steers slow, and has traction issues, 3rd axel always slips. I don't like it at all. There are a lot other trucks that offer much better performance and are much faster.
Its funny seing references to Kenny having a weak engine when it actually has the strongest engine available in the game shared with a few trucks. The problem is that Kenny is so big and heavy that not even the best engine in the game is strong enough for it.
@@Shiftry87 It's funny seeing people still comparing trucks by just on their engine power on paper while actually there are lots of variables affecting a trucks real performance. Try pulling two slabs from a steep quarry slope with kenny and see how it struggles while the azov 7 climbs like its nothing. Engine power by itself means nothing in snowrunner. For example azov 6 is unstoppable in this game, it's am 8 engine has 210000ncm, it's the 11th strongest engine, but tuz warthog also has the same engine option, which is light as f.. Do you think they do pull same? not even close. So engine power or p to w ratio don't give you much clue. Gear ratios, number of driven axles, tire softness and weight, effectiveness of the differential lock, weight balance all comes in to factor a trucks performance. Kenny is good because its has giant tires and is a big carrying platform. Performance wise a simple pacific 512 or voron ae blows it out of the water. Also wanderer engine is not the strongest anymore it the 3rd. In summary klenny has a weak engine for itself. PLUS; people are forgetting that kenny is almost only playable with it's strongest engine option. It's other engine options suck so bad they almost make it unplayable, constantly stopping on slight inclines. which is not seen in any other trucks in the game. Kenny definitely needs a troque buff for all of it's engines.
Mastodon is basically pay-to-win car. There's a reason most experienced players don't use him.
Being experienced on this game does not make a player not to use a specific truck. I've been playing the game for a very long time and I like it. I use it whenever I wan't, not because it is very capable but because I actually like driving it.
Damn, the king down to 4th place wasent expecting that. I dident think it was a guaranteed 1st place but a top 3 for sure. The Kenny at 1st place as mutch as i respects ppl having there own preferences this 1 is a big hell no. Its capable for sure and will get the job done but its big, to big infact which is causing its crippling power problem. The fact that its known to have a power problem when it has the strongest engine in the game really tells u how big and heavy this thing is. On its own unloaded its not as bad but the moment u try to pull a trailer or load any cargo on it its own weight starts to stress the engine and even small rocks will force u to downshift which should not happen with the size of those tyres. This truck is desperatly in need of a unique more powerful engine to compensate for the fact that its also the heaviest truck in the game.
Thanks for a very good video, can you do offroad class next? 😊
The reason I've grabbed mods is very simple. To make it more realistic, no really the Oshkosh M9010 think it's called the irl DL 4520 is meant to tow Abrams tanks! So having a military S+ engine? Is realistic, the CAT745C can have many attachments irl and makes perfect sense as a rescue/repair vehicle, the Masterdon makes sense as a military fuel carrier as it's been seen doing that, the Kenworth 963 I'm using as a fuel truck as again it's designed to carry crude oil so not too far from its original purpose and so on.
To me the vehicles are at times underpowered especially when you've been playing for a while and you're role-playing I've modified my trucks off screen to make them more capable which you would do irl. I don't use anything too OP as it wouldn't be a challenge then but, I do want my vehicles to do their specific jobs better.
Great..
Na this is cheating! Nothing realistic to use mods. Must ask have you driven trucks irl?
cat 770G lacks difflock, versatility and addons yeah obvious but if they gave it difflock, maintenance addon (Which it had IRL), would make it a good support heavy apart from being a portable fuel station (which is probably up for the modders)
Great video, mate. Totally agree with your list, but the only thing that I would do is swap FEMM with PLAD
the kirovets k7m is a beast in deep mud
ill say that you really cripled the western star 47x nf 1430 by giving it the offroad gearbox, it really shines when using the highrange gearbox in high gear, lots of power that as long as its only shallow mud it will fly out.
even more for the wester star twinsteer, stick with stock suspension, slap some duals on it, give it highrange, and it will go fast and strong, bigger tires and offroad suspension is for mud crawling
"a snowrunner(" i can't💀💀
I use the 770G for super deep mud rescue mostly
cyrus make such list for every truck like this one
Not a heavy truck, but basic Azov with mud tires is to me, the best truck in the game!
Hey, great video . I would say Plad is better than 605R and also azov 7 is better than Atom , but that's the beauty about this game - you can play as you want it :) Great Job !
the P512 shouldn't be a heavy though. The w990 is better in every single measurement.
For me the Azov Atom is the best heavy/offroad truck!
For the super heavies I'm between the plad and Mastodon. The mastodon is the best truck for offroad use but the plad will carry high saddle trailers better as it has almost the double ground clearance.
Honestly to make the 770G more worth while they should double the fuel addon capacity. Most trucks already carry 1800L with most trailers being 200L, and what's the semi trailer, 3700L or something?
The 770G having 4000L would make it a worth the effort of getting out to a baron part of the map to have it setup shop as a refuelling hub. But as it is there isn't a reason to take it over other trucks.
I might be wrong, but i think that pacific's trucks has been updated with AWD in some of additions (season 4 or 6)
You are wrong.
Ummm a cat truck at last place is crazy.. it's a great recovery truck
The best and worst truck of each class video needs updated
Personal opinion, the 963 performs best with the original tires.
twinsteer CAN SWIM!
Nice video 👍
Bro have some beef with Canadian trucks
Skill issue tbh
ZiKZ 612H > Kenworth 963 easily
not as if, kenny has better options, is bigger (don't stuck on deep mud or river), and can pull more cargo, if U are good at packing it xD
but kenny has ONLY ONE, but very important issue: lack of power...
@@PitBull51091It all comes down to learning how Kenny likes his gears shifted.
only if you compare the raw power. kenny is way more versatile with the addons and its power is not THAT bad!
@@Gunner3K kenworth is one of worst trucks in game. Cat 770 is slightly worse.
@@PitBull51091I like Kenny a lot and I get why is it appealing to many including me, looks and sounds, the long bed with crane is superior but the lack of power is really frustrating sometimes and that's why ziks better
Personally i really like the PLAD450. Its good and has all the addons you want + extra fuel. The Zikz 605 and the mastadon are just boring to use. And i feel the kenny ain't best tough with its weak engine, its a top 5 truck but the Mastadon is better.
Personally i love azov 42-20 because of its capabilities
I don't get the Azov Antarctic in the game. Designed for the most hostile environment know to man, without chained tires, full time diff lock, and in that giant cabin they couldn't fit a can of fuel or a tool box, really? And is tippy. Just like its longer version, the FEMM.
I fell in love with the Kolob Short Nose, did an awful lot of work with it pulling a super heavy trailer in Maine, Scandinavia and NC. And it easily climbed that impossible uphill in Duncan Bay with the coiled tubing semi, without help from a Tatarin. A helpful truck with a crane can drop a scout fuel trailer on the step deck of a (super) heavy trailer, and fuel becomes irrelevant, even on Hard mode.
I am in the same road about this truck. I am not a fan of articulated steering and even worse this truck is almost like the twinsteer with a boat load of addons.
Theres so many other things they couldve done instead of farming. Concrete trucks, snow plows, an actual tow truck, a garbage truck and tip. Hell, we wouldve preferred to have a cattle transport truck for livestock instead of tedious farming.
I laugh every time someone claims the 963 can't pull a trailer while I'm over here pulling a large trailer full of cargo plus having a fuel carrier addon through mud and places most of my other trucks get stuck in 😂 sounds like a skill issue or people using the wrong tires. Sure it struggles with the biggest heaviest trailers up steep hills but so do 90% of the trucks on this game. Granted I'd still rank the plad and 605r higher but it's still my top 3
i love tatra t815 because it has more addons compared to t813
and I personally agree with this tier list.
A question, on what this tier list is based on?
the addons of a truck or the performance of a truck?
Also right now that everyone speaks good about kenworth 963 I really want to buy season 10

a this point we need more big map for the p16 and the heavy truck
Also how do you have the P16 below the Boar? The P16 will out work the Boar all day every day regardless of the AWD on the Boar
No it won't lol
no it won't. Boar is the Ferrari of the heavies, put highway transmission on it and put it in H and it will pull superheavy trailers like comically fast. It is worlds better than the p16.
I would never have the Femm and Kenworth above the Zikz 605R.
Ken is always struggling with power, huffing and puffing even without pulling a trailer.
Femm is so bad to drive and easy to tip on elevated corners.
Other than the crane they don't have any advantages over the 605R.
Good luck pulling a trailer with the Ken, it struggles even without it.
As for the Femm, it's just a no. Horrible to drive. I would pick anything else before driving that.
Zikz 605R is still king of Snowrunner.
I agree with the k963, it's garbage, but the femm is really good, all you need is to know how to drive it.
Since the azov antarctic is my favorite truck and I drove it a lot, I got REALLY good at driving articulated trucks and now I barely flip them over. As such the femm is quite literally my nr. 1 truck, simply because if you remove player skill from the equation, it's objectively the best truck in the game.
@@meyes1098What transmission and tires do you use with the Femm? I feel like I struggle every time I try to use it.
Ya'll must not be upgrading your Kenworth bc mine never struggles with loads. The only time it slows down is on uphill climbs, but even then it still chugs along. It's easily my go to for almost every task, over any other truck
13:37 WTF is a roundabout 🦅🦅🦅🦅
i modify the game files to give all trucks awd and difflock otherwise i would never use those trucks. It would be a waste of a truck otherwise.
Judging by your rating and comments about some of the trucks, I feel like you haven't spent enough time driving them. A person who rates trucks and has quite an audience should know that Tatra 813 and 815 should be driven with the stock MSH I tires for best performance. 813 is more capable everywhere and has better suspension than 815 but lacks addons. DAN is a great truck but it gets stuck quite easily in deep mud. Not sure how much time you've spent with some of the trucks but doesn't seem enough.
This.
You're the first person I saw ranking the western star 49X (those 3 trucks or whatever) higher than the tatra t813 xD
Personally those trucks were such a let down every single time I tried them, but the tatra t813 is amazing. It has fuel for days, it's one of the most stable trucks in the game, it has the best mud tires in the game and is great in mud (not the best, but definitely in the top 10), had the best engine in the game (when it was released, the 260k torque one), and while it can't have many addons, it can have a bed, or high saddle (and nowadays there really isn't any difference between low and high saddle since you have access to good semi trailers for both, the only advantage low saddle has is the fact that most missions will include low saddle trailers, not high).
The paystar 5600ts at 11th place actually made me giggle a bit xD
In my experience, that truck is absolutely terrible, It consumes fuel like crazy, it doesn't even perform that well in mud, and it's not even that fast. Personally it ranks in the high 10s, or low 20s.
I'd also put the twinsteer about 5 or 6 spots below, simply because of how unstable it is, and the fact that it can't have addons and it can't pull trailers either. It's a one trick pony, if that pony was drunk and always fell over xD
It's only saving grace are the speed and the performance in mud, which is very good.
I'd also switch the place you put tatra force with azov 73210, since I find the tatra force consistently beating the long azov in more or less every scenario, especially mud performance (and any kind of difficult terrain actually).
For the derry special, I found that you can virtually eliminate it's "unstable-ness" by just not raising the suspension.
And oh wow, you put the k963 in first place? xD
This is the biggest disparity between your list and mine, I personally found it to be absolute garbage, I'd honestly put it in the high 20s. The k963 seems to be no joke one of the least capable trucks in the game. On paper the stats are great, but in practice, this piece of crap actually managed to stall when I was had an empty bed and pulled a regular fuel trailer, up a VERY SLIGHT incline xD
It has amazing tires with good size and on paper it should have no problem going through the toughest muds, but in practice it gets stuck in places where even the P12 had no issue.
It's a heavy truck that can't pull heavy cargo lol, can't really be used as a recovery vehicle either because it's too big, and you can't use it as a big crane truck because then it's almost useless the moment you need to climb a hill, or go through uneven terrain.
I actually hate this truck and it disappoints me every time I give it a try (and I give it a try about once every 2 sessions I play). Honestly think it's one of the worst heavy trucks in the game 🤣
We have the same 1 and 2, but your 3 is my 14, articulated trucks are in their own league of terrible.

The best trucks the game has to offer if anyone is tired of this fake russian 4x4 supremacy in this game.
Nah generally i would say yes to most rankings. But heavy trucks are for the hardest tasks. So you have also compare with the hardest map, Amur. Amur is the endboss and most of your Top 5 will fail dramaticly. Femm has a way to weak steering and a high fuel consumption. Its absolut useless if u have no access to fuel stations. Short trips, yes bad mf, but thats it. Than Kenworth, never understood the rank of this. Yes its big, it sound good, but beside that the fuel consumption is way to high and the power output way to low. Maybe in your Top Ten are trucks i dont like but which are good, but rank of the Tatras is just blasphemic. Tatra T813 is easily Top Ten. The engine power is great and the fuel consumption is hilarious low. Same with tatra force. With the new addon i would put it top 3. in my personal opinion i would put it on first place, because of the same reasons. The engine is an absolut monster and with addon and extra roof fuel it has nearly 700l of fuel. No other truck can drive this far. Maybe he is not the fastest or the best in turning radius, but it can do every job.
Your Kenworth must have a fuel leak because I feel like it's the best for long trips. Massive fuel tank and an average fuel consumption in my opinion. Plus a roof rack for extra fuel
100th comment, it is an honor lol
Hej
Anything non russian is bad beceause... well.. russian bias and russian devs 😂 if its not bad in mud it has a small fuel tank or horrible fuel consumption or verry tippy. (Or a combination of all of those like 5600ts. One of the best and most versitile trucks held back by all of it)
I agree, if they gave the 5600ts like 380L tank, and a roof rack with like 120L, it would make top3 for me :)

It's impossible to create an objective tierlist for the trucks.
OMG the twinsteer is the worst truck in the game. Anything other than pavement, it tips over. Also, the Antarctic truck. Also, the FEMM is terrible. With the best engine, it's still underpowered and drinks fuel. And the articulated steering is terrible.
What do you mean the femm is underpowered? I literally never had it stall on me, ever, and I was pulling upwards of 30t with it, easily!
@@meyes1098 Nathanprovince did some testing and its actually underpowered for its total weight. Its not the worst offender by far, kenny takes the cake on that one.
Twinsteer doesn't tip over with stock suspensions. It's still not great, but when hauling oversized cargo your choice is the Twinsteer, the awful long trailer, or the also not great semi-trailers.
@@ydfhlx5923 Ha ha! There's a reason why trucks are articulated (IRL). They are much harder to flip. The twinsteer is terrible with any suspension because it's long, thin, and non-articulated. There are many, much better choices in the game.
Sounds like skill issue to me. I have to stop myself from using the twinsteer everywhere because it'd make the game too easy.
