Truck Becomes Snowmobile

SEARCH BLOG: SNOW.

This video came in the mail from a friend of mind.  A neat concept since it works in fairly heavy snow that would probably bog down a truck... and it still works on bare highway.


It might be considered an improvement over another idea from 80-years ago.  Might be...



When you look at the depth of snow that old tractor zipped over, that design was pretty damned ingenious.  The fact that it could pull a 20-ton payload through snow and ice was pretty damned impressive.  Wonder if the truck could do the same?  Not too sure that today's car designs would lend themselves to a winter conversion to a snowmobile.

You have to love the driver wearing a business hat, suit, white shirt and tie, and dress overcoat.
