As a side note, I took a SFA course with a few truckers who worked that road-none from the show, though. Apparently, the guys on the snow are completely sideways, the producers basically went and picked the wackiest, most unsafe guys they could. And the reason that they did the special on that South American death road recently was because those guys had been kicked off the ice road for being completely sideways.
Anyways, yeah, it looks like I'm going to try and hunt down a truck. I have to fly down to Winnipeg to meet part of my paintball team for a roadtrip down to a game in Oklahoma in June, so, instead of flying back, I might try and rent or buy a truck and trailer locally, drive them back and sell them-I'd probably break even there, honestly, what with how Yukon used car prices are.
