Phil, how do you guys live in that stuff? It's 11.30 am and 29 degrees C. at the moment (I just checked it on my fine Canadian built Spyder)
When I say how do you live in that stuff, I'm thinking about the annual variation that you live with, that is far greater than here. I enjoyed your You tube clip. Thank you.

Good show Phil.......
.... I have yet to figure out how to stitch 3 short video nto one then post it on U tube.....
Actually easier to start the C15a and back it out of the sea can than it is for posting.... Still have only 4 inches of snow on the ground here..... Lynn we get some weird temp shift....... like -19C at night and +1C the following afternoon...... Sure keeps you awake..... You know it is a cold night when you have to use a pipe wrench to loosen up the chuck in the drill press at the barn!!!!! Cheerrrrrsss

Good One
Hi Mariano
Good video, little strange to see green and no snow. That's the whole point of the challenge to get out and enjoy our trucks, our hobby and our friends. Cheers Phil

How deep is the challenge......
How deep into fresh snow can you drive a CMP....without chains and not get stuck.....
I have gone as deep as the bumper pushing the snow.....but....when I stopped I could not go ahead anymore.......as long as you can keep the momentum you are OK......... The you have deep snow with icy crust under fresh snow......until you sink to the frame I know that a M37 with chains on both axles can go as deep as the top of the hood......until you do a HARD right turn and pull a chain off the front wheel and wrapped itself up around the brake hose...... it was cold so...... the Dodge stayed there until Spring time.......my Mom was not amused as it was in her backyard. I will try again this Winter if we ever get more snow...... Cheers

Outstanding!!
Well done Phil and Mariano. Loved those clips, felt like I was in there with you!!
Bit slow Down Under at the moment. So I really don't have any excuse except to say I was a long way away from my truck on the 1st Jan 2022. Both the HUP and FAT sounded in top form!!!

Excellent pics and video's again, guys! I always enjoy Phil's challenge very much and one day I hope to do my part......the closest I got this year was read some CMP manuals on New Years day.
