The next map needs to have some sort of section where you can use the highway trucks properly.
yes .. what's the point of highway trucks when you can't use them on maps
I disagree. The game needs to have a way to permenantly remove rocks and debris from the roads on the maps we already have. We complete the tasks to build the bridges, we fix powerlines, we clear out rockslides, and yet sometimes those wood barriers remain in the way and there's STILL large rocks littering the roadway. The only way this is fixed as of right now, are mods that painstakingly have gone through the maps to remove every single pebble and twig from the paved roadways.
@@jessegd6306 agreed. That's a much needed addition.
@@jessegd6306 Yes, especially in Maine.

I found good use for the scout 800 in my hard mode playthrough. It powers through most Michigan terrain a lot faster than the Chevy. Just don’t buy the roof rack and don’t use it for those mountain trail tasks (king of the hill, a place beyond the spruces, etc). Also, sticking a fuel trailer on it makes it more stable by literally anchoring to the ground, without losing too much pace.
ok, this is a tip i really did learn a lot from. i don't play hard mode but the tip by using the fuel trailer instead of the roof rack is a great one for me
Yeah good advise & don't put a lift kit on that b
Same for me. In hard mode, any truck that you can get for free has a different value to those that you have to unlock because the dollars are a limited resource. I would still say that the chevy is a top tier scout in the game, but a scout 800 with 35" tires and auto winch is a good sidekick for your fleet that can get you to many places. Its tire options are one of the few examples where you can but not necessarily should give it the biggest upgrades available.
@@EloTheMan1 I experimented a lot with the wheel and suspension setup (in normal mode obviously! Can’t afford to do testing in hard!) and in the end I did decide on raised suspension and the biggest mud tyres… but I mainly used my 800 in the muddier regions, so 🤷🏻♂️
@@guyjackson4165 Mission adaption, that's a given. Everyone has their own playstyle and such, finding out what works the best for yourself is good.
I love how the Clasico Pack description calls the Apache “ferocious” yet the truck’s only good when upgraded
Even when upgraded it’s still underpowered
@@AJsBusVideos yeah exactly. B- power is not very good. Unless it’s in the lo4f.
i have to change the game files from the truck to make it 6x4 RWD, like the original chassis should be, best change ever.
You must be a PC Player
@@vclealj How does (the truck) it work?
It's a shame the Scout 800 is underwhelming because I really like how it looks. However, I've found that it's much better being a utility vehicle rather than an actual scouting truck. For maps where you need the radar trailer, I just take a Paystar 5600TS with a van body and semi trailer, place a scout 800 and a radar trailer in the semi trailer and place a scout fuel trailer on the roof of the van body addon. 800 repair points and 6 wheels from the van body, 300 repair points and 5 wheels from the Scout and a combined 1112L of fuel from the Scout and the small fuel trailer. Perfect for revealing an entire map in 1 trip.
(Also the scout is small enough to be packed sideways on a flatbed, which is very useful since you can deploy it in places where your truck may not be able to fit like a watchtower path or hidden upgrade route.)
thanks for the tip
Agree the Apache has zero utility but aesthetically it’s still my favourite looking scout. Agree with the CATS, feels like they are only in the game because they had a license so they may as well have them.
Yep apache is bit shitty, but better scout than khan 39 "marshall". Since apache has better range, accest to chain tires
I disagree... Khan marshall is one of most capable scout in game.... it can easily go through mud and even snow.... it's fuel tank is nerfed and fuel usage is increased by devs to make it balanced because it was so OP when game was released
Apache is my "Zen" scout, when I just want to zoom in on the vehicle, lay back and watch it cross mud and snow slowly but surely.
@@SD1ONE Disagree with the last vehicle. It's a FRONT LOADER.(Actually a telehandler)
It's meant for loading different types of cargo. That's it.
@@Dan460x and not worry about fuel, since it carries more extra fuel than hummer.
Best scout for me right now is the Tuz 16 Actaeon. Technically an offroad truck but it can take a roof rack with repair supplies, a small fuel tank and has an autonomous winch which keeps it in the field forever. Then it has the added bonus of being an actual truck (with S+ weight ratio) so it can grab trailers and do recovery missions out and about. I love that thing.
The Trans-star used to have the crane-bed-trailer combo but it made turning near impossible.
You even covered it in a previous video.
Even though the Apache being FWD is technically a bug it is my favorite vehicle in game. On ice the tendency for it to understeer is appreciated compared to the snap oversteer of most RWD and many 4WD trucks in game. You definitely have to put the 5.2 in it for it to work well as well as give it the roof rack and the bed supplies. It definitely needs to be able to tow trailers though.
Honestly I wouldn't care for the Apache if they fixed the bug and got rid of the FWD/6WD drivetrain setup.
I miss the A-969s from Mudrunner. I hope they'll add them as DLC to Snowrunner soon. Little FWD/4WD Mountain Goats.
Apache is really good for climbing mountains. It's stable and has tons of traction even when going over rock littered sides of mountains. And it still stays stable even with a roof rack. Also it can carry around a lot of fuel and repair points AND it has full 360 degree array of lights. Very very few vehicles in the game have lights even to their sides not to mention to the rear. This makes the apache the ultimate night time scout and using it for rescue missions for stuck or even rolled over vehicles. I have even used it to pull Tayga B back on its wheels on the side of a mountain.
@@MrBrander It is pretty dang good. The A-969s from Mudrunner are still my favorite though.
Yeah, the Apache has been my go to scout vehicle for the first two areas of the game. Yeah, it's in a DLC, but that means it's available to use out of the gate in Michigan and Alaska, if you want to play the maps "in order". Without it and the Bandit, I doubt I would have kept playing the game much at all with just the base starter vehicles in those maps. Sure the YAR is better in some regards, but isn't available in the USA maps out of the gate.
The cat forklift is very good for handling cabins, and I think that is its primary purpose in this game. It's also fun sometimes to load stuff up with it just for the hell of it.
When first playing snowrunner I skipped the Taymer region because someone said trucks get stuck too easily - hence I missed the Tatarin - so when I got the TH357 I unlocked most of my watchtowers with it so I've always liked it - it can reach some really difficult areas. The Cat 770 I used all the time as a refueling truck especially on maps where I hadn't opened up the fuel depots. It has also helped me out on lots of occasions but I agree it can't be used for much else..
It's interesting Scout 800 is considered bad now. When I started playing the game in 2020, I loved it, because it was a decent scout that you could get right at the start of the game for free. I suppose it's not as good Loadstar 1700, but it can do all scout tasks in Michigan.
yes but with new updates, new vehicles get released and they've better stabilty, better power and most importang better fuel consumption than scout 800 but still it's a good beginner vehicle as it's free to find in first map as well as it has diff lock always on.
Your videos help me because in them I recognize the worst cars and take them for my challenge, thank you
It's a good list. I like the Apache though. Been using it in Maine as my primary scout. It does burn a shit ton of fuel when it is upgraded. I just couldn't with the Western Star 49X. It struggled in every role I placed it into. Couldn't even use in as a support vehicle. Only maps it wasn't fucked on were Michigan and Alaska. It's underperformance in every category baffled me because the CAT 681 is a damn fine truck. Extra axel be damned.
Another great video 👍
Scout 800 id a great trail runner and early game supply vehicle. Just don't put the lift kit on it and don't drive blithely into everything and it is superb. It has a stiff suspension that keeps it very level and extremely capable to climb, but causes it to bounce a lot and tip if you don't pay attention. Not every truck has to be able to do everything well. I use it extensively without issue and rarely tipping over with the roof rack on.
The Apache is EXTREMELY stable on slopes and very resistant to tipping even with full supplies. It has a good flex and can easily and smoothly cruise over most terrain without difficulty. It has a substantial amount of supplies making it a good supply truck, though the lack of trailers is frustrating. Winching a fuel trailer is common with it, though hardly ideal.
Totally agree on the Scout 800. And same: it is still my favorite. Lol. Just reminds me so much of an old Land Rover D90 or Discovery from the old Camel Trophy days.
I love the Derry Longhorn, I've used it a ton for recovery and trailers both
--Scout: Yeah, way too top-heavy. I tend to leave the roof rack and have it hauling trailers. The added weight gives it just a little bit extra stability, and if I need the biggest wheels, I go as slow as I comfortably can.
--Apache: The lack of trailers is inexcusable, in my opinion. It's okay for actual scouting, but once the map is revealed, it's pretty much useless. Unless you want a bit of extra fuel for a caravan run or something.
--Big CAT: Yeah. It's basically a self-powered fuel tank for long hauls. Which isn't bad, but it's limiting.
--4070A: Honestly, I like it. It's definitely not for mud, but I haven't had any trouble anywhere else. Mud and deep rivers kill it, it kills everything else with small loads.
--Little CAT: Yeah, no. It's way too specialized so far, and it's not great to use compared to cranes. Pretty useless overall.
The 770G is great in Wisconsin or for setting up a temporary fuel depot but that's about it that i have found.
@@falldra_sky6194 And you can do the same with fuel trailers, yeah. Its upside compared to them is that it has its own engine, and can be a help in a caravan to push or pull a load-carrier.
You said the 4070A is good if there's no mud or snow, but 99% of the game is just mud and snow.
@@crss6846 An exaggeration, but even so, it's up to your driving much of the time. Obviously, it fares better in Michigan than Taymyr, because of the ratio of mud to hard ground.
Honestly, the only good cat is the 745c,
the other 2 are real useless pieces of garbage, only good thing is stability but really no one cares about that when the two major things that make a truck good are performance and addons
I totally agree with you an Apache and lift axis trucks. Sold all of them for good. Apache is good looking but the lack of trailer support makes it very bad since you can often complete a mission here or there while scouting with a scout trailer or you hook the radar trailer to fasten up the process.
Can't say anything about the other since I don't have them yet. Scout 800 I just sold since I found the Jeep more reliable.
I'm a beginner, but the scout 800 towed my fleetstar to the tayga, I thought the 800 is quite a useful beginner vehicle with AWD and diff lock. When you're starting it can get to most early places and seems to tow quite ok. Again I'm a beginner so I haven't got to try the good scouts.
Scout 800 is definitely a good beginner vehicle, but its relative usefulness beyond that is limited once you begin to acquire other, more capable trucks. Using the 800 teaches you all about stability and traction on different terrain, and how loading and accessories affect those characteristics, all for a low, low price. Having an autonomous winch allows you to push the boundaries during exploration, but don't count on it to do much as a recovery vehicle.
The ferry Longhorn is a great truck, that adjustable dead axle can be really helpful when you least expect it.
I've actually found that the dead axle Derry Longhorn is actually very good in snowey environments. Yes the dead axle makes going over hills a little bit challenging but overall it's actually one of my favorite trucks
I also liked Derry because of it's authentic look when compared to most unlicenced trucks in game and also it adds diversity in game but that said I almost never use it because there're better trucks available.
recently i started using the bed+trailer setups and i think i'll stick to my semi trailers for the most part.
I'm also sad about the scout 800. It's such a cool looking little thing.
I enjoy the dead axle cat truck, I think putting down the wheel adds much needed stability on large loads. Not to mention sometimes wiggling the dead axle helps you get over stuff
this theme needs a separate video
but tbh, had that dead axle not exist, it would've been better than the ct680, so really no point to buy dlc for ct681.
@@bossfight6125 CT681 was added for free in an anniversary dlc.
The Cat th357 would be more useful if it had a Log crawler (efficient one, which can carry more than 1) and a bit more off-road capabilities.
And I like the scout 800, just need to be all careful, and I use it to carry with a truck and a radar, to make things easier + his repair and fuel add-ons.
The transtar would benefit from a rear difflock at least. I literally saw a TH357(or something similar) with a minicrane in a construction sight near my house, no reason the one in-game cant have it.
Yes the Scout sucks but the game allows you to set your difficulty by what vehicle and setup you use. Want a challenge use the scout, want to get there no matter what use the TUZ 420. I used the TUZ 420 to pull the Derry Longhorn with loaded trailer up a mountain after the Derry literally stalled out in every gear due to lack of power.
I love the Cat fork truck it's very useful on long log missions if you have a long on road section then to a deep mud section. Just unpack the long logs scoop all 3 with forks leave them in the air move the road truck and drive the mud truck under them makes it alot easier then messing with a log crane
I use the Transtar in the first maps as a cheap, fuel efficient, lightweight transport for traillers, that I hand off to offroad fuel hungy trucks.
It has it's role.
Or also as a tanker that stays at strategic place on roads, because I won't use it other places.
Each truck has its uses.
no
Even with the thirsty trucks I've barely ever encountered fuel problems, not until some of the later maps.
I used the transtar to fix and pull the twinsteer to the fuel trailer, it's a lot more useful than most think
Scout 800 is a great scout imho, agree that the auto winch and the roof rack are a must. About its fuel efficiency, the second engine is perfect. Fuel for days, and enough punch to tow a small trailer. I scouted the whole of smithville dam with just the scout and its roof rack using that engine.
My first run through I did all of Michigan scouting with it. Same configuration too lol, it works great just need to not drive like an idiot, or take to steep of hills. Before the Jeeps got added it was my Jeep.
In some way it's not bad to have some vehicles that are not the best in the game as in real life some brands and models are superior to other's, this way let's say a player buy or finds and keeps some like "scout 800" then they have the choice of keeping it for a more challenging experience or selling it. But truly the game by now should give the option for purchasing longer axels, among other problems but instead the devs creta new maps or vehicles an may fix some of the old ones here and there. Anyways great vid 👍 👌.
Well now I'm glad I don't have any of those trucks. Except the Derry, personally one of my favorite trucks
I wish they would do an update to the apache for trailers and rwd configuration.
I actually disagree on the lift-axle trucks. Yes, they can high-center but the advantage they do get is with heavy bed loads, like steel beams or when fitted with a large crane. Sometimes other trucks of the same size can bottom out really bad when they start taking terrain, but the lift-axle helps keep them from digging their bellies into muck. Admittedly they're situational, yes, but I still love keeping my cranes on the CT681 for that reason. Lifted suspensions can help some, but don't always fix that issue and can sometimes lead to belly-slaps; where the extra weight pushing down from on top causes the vehicle to keep slapping itself to death as the suspension gives. Just a personal opinion though.
For me Yar 87 is one of the best scouts you can get early in game, other than the CK 1500 of course. I like other scouts too but most are pretty bad at off roading.
Song reminded me about Tokyo extreme racer, and now i wanna play it
I wonder if Highway trucks were just added as a category to show to the player that you can take a highway truck out in the wilderness... But you are going to run into huge amount of problems so you shouldn't.
I asked for this video😍
the Cat forklift is actually amazing for scouting. If it had a snorkel it'd be OP
I have a fully upgraded scout with roof rack that I don’t really have any problems with. I’ve used it to scout entire regions in one go with little issues. Sure it’s top heavy but as long as you don’t drive it around like a dumbass it’s a perfectly good scout truck. Also I don’t see why someone wouldn’t put the auto winch on all their scout trucks, its sheer usefulness just makes it an obvious choice for me.
i did the complete michigan scouting with the 800. it is totally fine to me.
Agreed with everything. And I buyed the Apache thinking of a better scout. And you can't refund it in store. Shame on me.
And abou the CAT: it lacks 4x4. Don't know if it have this config in real life but it's a pain to drive. The mission that requires it to pull the (exclusive) trailer is very difficult to complete.
Some of the paid DLC trucks are, sadly, disappointing. Western 49X is one of those, it always keeps triggering me when I try to use it. Your list is quite similiar to mine.
Great video. Thank you for your hard work.
Do you mind sharing if you play with a controller or a wheel? If wheel setup, then what kind - full rig or just a wheel?
Take care and enjoy the rest of your day.
I don't own a wheel, so never tried it but I did used a controller and it has it's own benifits but I use manual winching a lot which is a lot easier with mouse thus I always use keyboard/mouse.
@@SD1ONE Oh, wow. So you're mainly using kb+m - that's interesting! Thanks for the reply.
I definitely agree with you, especially for dlc trucks and not being capable compared to vanilla trucks. Great video
I still use the telehandler to put cabins in cabin zones. I’m pretty sure that’s it’s original purpose.
it was but then people found out that you could lift cabins with a crane so there was no point in using it, as soon as I found that out I sold both and brought something more useful.
@@markrowe8824 nah bro I’m still doing it the classic way. I like a challenge lol
it is also a good scout with mudtires rivaling those of Kolobs
I used my Transtar as a service vehicle, put a fuel tank on it and park it in the middle of the map and it's a great mobile service station.
Why am I not surprised to see the cat 770G on the thumbnail? 😁
49Х and P512 are my favorite trucks)
great👍👍
I like the phrase "has more addons in real life" 😂
I want the old mudrunner us scouts in base game, like blazer, ford f150 and chevy Napco 600 I think.
Happy to see you e changed your mind about the loaf. It still isn't the best scout but it's appearance always puts a smile on my face.
Yo btw. I've been looking up Indian truck and car companies recently. You guys gut some brands. Your own Leyland division, Tata. I wish the devs could make a brave step away from America or Russia and intreduce an Indian map for a change. Having a rainforest around you instead of a drap old forest or swamp would be a nice change of pace.
yeah, there are some very dagerous mountain passes in India which would look great in snowrunner also the trucks here are customised very differenlty from rest of the world. sadly India is not very big market for PC/console gaming...I mean mobile gaming is pretty big but PC/console gaming is still kinda niche...Also we have to pay extra for both consoles and PC parts due to high taxes (PS5 is around USD700 as MSRP). On top of that USD to INR conversion is also bad.
@@SD1ONE sounds bad. And Snowrunner on Mobile would be a wierd game XD
But in general Id just really like the developers to leave thier comfort zones of making american and russian maps only. When I first saw the Tatras I was excited for the czeck map that I assumed theyd come with but instead they put some michigan assets into a russian map, very lame if you ask me.
With the Apache I leave it in AWD it's a great scout. It carries enough fuel the lack of trailers isn't really a big problem. Do I wish they would fix the FWD, absolutely, am I not going to use the truck, no. It's off road performance is great. Rarely will you get stuck and have to use a winch, plus it doesn't fall through the ice.
I agree with everything you said here
CAT TH357 Can be used as scout actually. Diff lock and AWD with his maneuverability makes him quite great on tiny roads where you have almost no spce to turn.
indeed i scouted most of big salmon peak with is it is quite good for it but it does fear water to be fair
I think forklifts in general are useful when you can't ad a crane for the
crane bed trailer combo.
But is like same size as loadstar with a crane.
I would also like to point out, complaints about any licensed trucks besides a pacific would be useless, as they’re made to be the 1:1 thing.
Pacific was completely built on customers request, meaning it was all over the place, 6x4, 6x6.
As someone who off-roads irl, the scout 800 is the best imo -- low gear is your best friend
Great video! I mostly agree on this list. I don´t like mods but the mod that makes the CAT 770G useful with a trailer hitch and a saddle high is something that should be in the game. So strange to add a truck that is only really useful on a single map. I use the CAT 770G as a sort of ferry over deep muddy places to keep a road open for trucks that could otherwise not pass over that specific area.
The telehandler should also be equipped with a log crane to make it useful in the game. I only use it for diversion when loading cargo, but the crane is always faster.
One note on the Apache, as useless as it is, it is still one of only two vehicles in the game that can go over ice without going in (the other is the Don 71). Just make sure you have the mud tires.
I don´t find the dead axle trucks to be much of a problem really. If you have to pass a crest just raise the axle and go over the crest at a 45 degree angle and you will be fine. The Western Star 49X is one of my favourite trucks.
For those who wonder what the dead axle is good for here is some points:
1: The dead axle will spread the weight of the truck so that it will not go through mud or ice as deep as other trucks.
2: The dead axle will give the truck a higher stance so that trailers will clear obstacles better.
3: The dead axle will minimize the suspension damage you get when going fast over hard terrain or paved roads.
4: The dead axle will make the truck more directionally stable when going fast over hard terrain or paved roads.
You should try mods...there're some mods which are as refined as in-game trucks and they've their own addons making your gameplay experience to another level....Also I think most of the light weight scouts can make it on broken ice, you just have to keep them moving otherwise they'll break it and sunk into it....the dead axle trucks are in like honorable/dishonorable mention for a reason, I like them as unique vehicle type in a game but I also think that they've more downsides then upsides but still I don't want them to lose their axle completely as that would make them similar to ordinary trucks.
@@SD1ONE Yeah I will after phase 8 once I have completed the game to 100% in vanilla mode. I want to experience the game as intended by the developers before I start modding.
thanks for sharing this info, I needed it
The cat forklift needs to have a snorkel trailer hitch and most likely raised suspension and tires if it were to be used again same thing goes for the 770g with is own addons like the pacific
Scout 800 with fuel trailer is not a bad free scout for early hard mode runs when Chevy is still not upgraded. It comes with diff lock permenantly on
Don't get most powerful engine on scouts. That's a trap. Designed as a lesson you have missed. The lesson is "Most power isn't always best".
It goes like this - Chevy 1500 has 4 engines, of which you get 4th after 1st, and only later 2nd and 3rd. The jump is there so you notice the difference - how your wheels spin and you just dig in with that crazy OP custom engine while also watching your fuel vanish real time. So eventually you may go for the second engine. More so with attachments.
Scout is not thirsty if set up properly.
more like this!!!
I think if you want to have fun with the International Scout: You can race it in Forza Motorsport 7 xD
I think the starter GMC truck is by far the most useless of them all. I couldn't wait to get a new truck.
SD1ONE: “it’s very unstable”
Also SD1ONE: *drives it off a fucking cliff*
I love the scout 800
The only problem i have with the transtar is it needs awd options but the trucks with the dead axel ive had no problems with im not an idiot i choose my path with caution always think about the truck ur driving some do need different routs but there still good you just have to adapt to the truck
The Apache straight out of the DLC is a beast for me. If having no trailer hook is a problem then go look at the Khan, another paid DLC vehicle.
The part with the Scout 800 I highly disagree on, its not without its faults sure, but its my most used scout, and my go to for scouting the maps.
First of, you dont need a larger engine on it, the car is small and light enough that the standard engine will get you everywhere already (if you wanna pull trailers s stronger engine would be nice, but i have other cars for pulling), with the standard engine the fuel economy is some of the best.
It IS top heavy, but by taking care not to drive sideways on hills (without anchoring side with winch), not going too fast in uneven terrain and such it will work wonders! Roof rack does make it more unstable, so if flipping is a problem, run without it, I do fine with the roof rack and with that extra fuel i scout a whole map on one run without refilling usually.
Auto winch is a must, cus even when careful you will flip sooner or later, wanna be able to fix that when it happens.
Even though its small size makes for unstability, it also means it can get through/inbetween places many others wont.
Truck stability has improved since the latest update with the new suspension settings.
Funny, that in Hard-mode CAT TH357 and Transtar becomes much more useful! TH357 is a good scout (with great fuel economy), and Transtar is a great truck for Michigan (great speed, variability and fuel economy).
Nah bro, the lifted bronco jeep thing is awesome. 5 stars for style and sound
Mudrunner and snow best content
Bigger wheels for scout800 is only needed when pushing scout trailer
Scout 800 - use an even more economical engine (this is one example where the most powerful engine is not the best). You have to be careful during climbing but this is a better scout than the CK1500. It takes a lot of fuel and burns little with the right engine. Alltime difflock works well with a standard gearbox.
4070A - yea in mud is terrible but is quite good on good road. It is good at transporting fuel in Michigan (fast and economical) - it comes handy in hard mode.
In my opinion, you forgot about: Kodiak C70 (2 free in game is unsavory joke) and TUZ 108. They are terrible in every way. TUZ 16 "Actaeon" is also terrible but have anonymous winch.
kodiak is not enough bad to put in this list IMO, it can climb big rocks, etc stuff due to high ground clearance specially at front. It flips a lot but it's still can be useful to some. TUZ 108 is very powerful for it's size it's P2W is among one of the best in entire game but I always prefer TUZ 16 over it because of auto winch.
@@SD1ONE You inspired me to retest TUZ's. They are a bit more stable than I remember, maybe there has been some modification of these vehicles in one of Snowrunner updates? Front axel bounces in 108 and it's hard to steer with a lot of cargo (semi traier or trailer). It's hard to take advantage of this P2W. But ok is very fast with fuel tank and fuel trailer on my test track. TUZ 16can handle long logs quite efficiently, has very little fuel supply, but can mount a larger tanker than TUZ 108. It is a bit nicer to steer. I still can't figure where they will be better than others. Maybe some time trial, but I'm not convinced.
Kodiak C70 - I test also but it is terrible. Only for very light work and it's still hard to imagine a good application.
Always loved this game, I previously played on ps4 and recently got a pc but not sure if I will get the game on it. I think it's worth it with the amazing graphics in this game!
Play it with mods and there are a ton of em! There are some fantastic trucks out there that are balanced also.
@@Warshado19 ahhh yes I forgot about the huge selection of mods on PC!
I have the game in both platforms. Pc mods are really cool. And you can play online free.
@@pilot_xoan yeah exactly I'm really contemplating it lol
I've found that most of the scouts are unstable if you put the raised suspension on them. I also never have used the highway trucks, mostly cause for me AWD is a must. There just is not enough mud free roads to validate ever using the highway truck. Only map they are even plausible on is Michigan, other then that all the other maps have so much mud I find them useless.
Honestly Alaska makes somewhat good use of the highway trucks as long as the one you are using can equip chains
Im not agree with the CAT Th357 because it's a very good off-roader and it's the only scout that can go through breaking ice(by using the lifter as an anchor) and it's extremely stable.
but it's very slow and can't have roof racks and stuff.... it's only purpose it's to lag cargo but cranes does better job in that department too
True, it's very capable in hard terrain. If it only had a trailer hitch, like it has IRL, it would be much more useful for other then pure scouting. It almost seems to me, that they crippled it deliberately, so we cannot use it for cargo hauling :)
I use the original cat in the game for pulling my trucks out of the Mudd the 770G is still a useful tool for pull truck do to it's weight it holds it ground even pulling a truck on its side with an oversized load I pull a truck 1 kilometer on its side with an oil rig trailer on its side as will it hauled it with all that drag didn't slow it down any I was in Alaska
can i ask what testing map do you use?
You forgot about Tuz Actaeon (GAZ 66)... Not stable, bouncy, hard to drive on rocks and bigger obstacles. I have wait for old Tayga (KrAZ 255) long time and when I saw Actaeon first time I become furious.
I like Actaeon... it only truck with auto winch and powerful as well.
what about the Warthog? same stability issues, no auto winch, smaller fuel tank addon, no van body+roof rack combo, etc
Honestly the scout with no roof rack and stock suspension is pretty solid. Even raised is ok but no roof rack
still it eats up a lot of fuel
@@SD1ONEI feel like Cat 770G would be a beast if they gave it unique add-ons and trailers and gave it a snorkel 😢
770G needs water tank and its rock trailer should be available for more missions on other regions beside yukon but I guess the season pass system kind of restricts it to just the yukon region.
The Kodiak C70 seems to be the most useless truck I've tried so far. (Not too far along in the game) the single axle with 6ft of frame hanging off the back really helps it get hung up offroad, that and it gets stuck on wet asphalt 😂
The appache would of been so much more useful if they would let us pull trailers with it
What I'm seeing is the Apache is well an inferior Yar 87. And if the Scout 800 had slightly wider axles and floatation tyres aka ones on the ANK and Tayga? It would honestly be unbeatable as far as scouts go
Also consider this how often do you see a construction vehicle have a trailer attached.
Pretty much agree, but I like the Transtar. I put a fuel tank and a set of UOD2s on it, with a highrange transmission, and that thing can dash across some surprisingly big mud pits. I use it quite a bit as a fast replenisher.
it is also very good with chains.
Amen!
The forklift is pretty much a meme vehicle like the old tractor in mudrunner.
Scout 800 is one of my favourite vehicles in the game. I think It is good as It is because of being one of the more challenging vehicles of the game, maybe they can add a more friendly version.
Most of the vehicles have limitations because of being like real life counterparts (most of the Cats), I think it's not bad, for people that wants to add more things to them they can get the mods.
Dead axle it's another real life feature, I think having them in the game it's good.
but telehandler has more attachments in real life and some of them can be useful in game like that log loader.... it would make it very useful in hard mode where it's better to use manual loading
@@SD1ONE yeah, I mean in general Cats have add ons limitations, but some of them as the telehandler can get more. The log loader would be so interesting. I think a dumper add on for both big Cats could be cool for some new rock or dirt transport missions.
Good luck to 5M SUBSCRIB BRO
Apache is my favorite scout. Bed supplies & mud tires, don't use the roof rack, it'll go everywhere I point it 👍👍 "no road no problem" It even floats for those deep river xings 🤪scout trailers are pointless imo for this game. Modded scouts & trailers are cool, but I rarely use em. If it needs hauling... well I use a truck, not a scout.
All the trucks with axle are quite useable except poor derry their, oof big rip their on drive axle.
Cat is a absolute beast with insane starting stats S in power to weight very fast truck used alot, I adore it, only been caught with axle few times but was able to easily move out.
That (useless) drive axle as you put it, helps with stability if the truck is top heavy, with other addons (cough) van body maintenance frame (cough!)
It also pushes it self higher out of mud when deployed giving a higher clearance above the mud!!
And someone said they have their own breaks so better stopping?? Don't no if they do have actual breaks just a rumor.
Like saying they're bad cuz this miiight happen, then all American trucks are bad cause they got no mud tires lol.
Apache not having a trailer hitch is the dumbest thing ever, and same with the new Rezvani 6x6 truck, also the front wheel drive part of the Apache makes no sense, even 6x6 RWD is the default state
The transtar 4070 is a wonderful looking truck and I love Cab over Engine trucks, it has so much power to weight, but giving it AWD or Diff Lock would make it usable
I concur
Gutted. Just found the Scout and thought it looked soooo cool.
cat th357 the best off-road scout on any surface and very fuel efficient!
Trucks with dead axles make for good crane trucks
The Apache didn’t exist in that form in real life that I’m aware of, it’s based on a custom project truck. As a lot of trucks back then didn’t come with 4x4, NAPCO started making conversions and that’s how it has front wheel drive. The NAPCO in mud runner did the exact same thing. I don’t know the exact details because I’ve never personally run into a NAPCO owner to ask questions.
Actually I was under impression that Napco was rear wheel but I checked it again in mudrunner and It is in-fact front wheel drive when AWD is off...that now make sence for apache being like that too.
@@SD1ONE we all learn something everyday lol. It’s a pleasure watching your vids
