When the air hits -55°F, regular steel becomes brittle enough to shatter. That’s where Arctic Trucks USA comes in. Chris Ladd joins Kevin and Willie to explain the extreme engineering behind their world-famous rigs. From converting airport shuttle buses into Yellowstone beasts on 44” tires, to developing proprietary tires that "float" over deep powder, the guys dive into how these vehicles survive the most hostile terrain on Earth. Discover why "low and wide" is the golden rule for glacier stability and what it’s really like to drive 22 hours across the roadless Alaskan tundra.
