You will live longer if you stop reading internet comments.
But then I wouldn't have seen this wise advice 🤔
Such as this one??? 😂 🤡
@@DirtyTeslahehe yes I know but now that you’ve seen it you can choose to stop ;-)
It’s like a train wreck.
Amen. 🙏
Thank you for the celsius readings
by the way the snow was not at 4deg C but MINUS 4 ...but thanks for the effort...
In this day and age, a grown person should know F vs. C degree readings at a glance. However, most don't. 10 degrees C is x F. Ugh.
@MR-sj6rq I don't because I don't care and doesn't factor into any portion of my day to day life. It didn't factor in back in 72'-73' when that system of measurement was introduced to the American public was going to replace EVERYTHING we had known. Quickly though that decision was rescinded and dropped. Though, some math courses taught the differences but it wasn't pushed. Maybe into college but not high school. I don't feel deprived. I don't need it.
In CT we get all types of snow and one of the most common is a very heavy wet snow that turns to slush on the roads. It ends up covering the entire bottom and front of the vehicle when driving. It’s almost like an icy mud. Super sticky. I can say with 100% certainty that those headlights will be completely caked with slush and rendered unusable a large portion of the time while driving in the snow here. I would expect that’s the case in most places, at least in the northeast.
Stop 🛑
I live in Alaska and was thinking the same. Also icicles covering the headlights when it's snowing and below zero.
Outstanding job with all the temperature measuring. Also testing the door opening when the buttons are below snow. Very informative and thorough.
19:30 "'10ft of snow 1999 Oldsmobile...'" comment perfect. 😄
Just a little point regarding your infrared thermometer: if you point it at reflective surface (e.g. glass, mirror, metal), you need to adjust the emissivity setting of your thermometer (if it has one) to account for it. Otherwise, you'll be measuring the temperature of the object the surface is reflecting not the surface itself.
Yeah that's why I was a little unsure of the mirror but... the tailgate stainless steel was still frozen, whereas near the charge port and on the doors (where climate control could be effecting it) the SS was above freezing. Either way I'm sure my little temp monitor is not fancy enough for that.
Or, point at an angle to the target object.
@@DirtyTesla yeah I don't think any infrared thermometer actually can measure the temperature of glass. as a firefighter our TIC's can't see the temp of glass
maybe put a little painters tape on all the areas you want to test.
The wiper did about as poor as I would have thought for the size. Not awful, but not great. When I had my F150 with a bed cover, I had to use a push broom as well to get a majority of it off. Same with the cab roof. Didn't want to be that person blowing all kinds of snow on the road. Now that LED headlights are the norm, they really need some kind of defrost capability. Either integrated to the glass like the mach-e windshield, or some kind of solid state heater+fan inside the fixture. Lastly, stainless steel is quite reflective to IR, so your IR temp gun is going to see whatever the reflection angle is.
is it ok if snow gets into a truck bed
If you put a piece of black electrical tape on something it will give you a more accurate thermal reading from an infrared thermometer.
I live in the great white north AKA Canada and this is not a problem or flaw of the Cybertruck. All vehicles have snow covered headlights and turn signals in the winter. Solution: we brush the snow off. Simple as that - no biggie. It's in our genetics...clean snow off before drive 🤖
The only issue is that they get covered on the road with slush, and the lights don’t warm up enough to melt it off while on, so it is a little issue
LEDs omit heat
Just brush the snow off your vehicle. That would have made the first quarter of the video unnecessary..
My 2001 F350 Dually Crewcab is RWD only and I drive it in deep Michigan snow during deer season. All you need is good tires and a good air pump and a good head on your shoulders. If you ever get stuck you simply air down then get unstuck and then air back up. Sure I don't have a Tesla but this applies to any vehicles. Simply knowing how to get unstuck could honestly save your life.
Also from Michigan. This is great advice. I've never driven RWD in the snow, but the broader lesson of knowing how to avoid getting stuck and what to do when it inevitably happens is important.
Dude is actually very caring for someone who repeatedly says "I dont care"
For me, I don't care if I don't care. But I point stuff out in case the person watching cares. Then they can choose not to buy a Cybertruck if those things matter to them
@DirtyTesla Buy BYD...Ultimate EV.
Sorry, I'm not going to "pre-heat" my vehicle for an hour because it's cold outside.
The IR gun is ok for some surfaces but it's not really accurate for shiny or glass objects. Infrared thermometers have good accuracy when measuring most objects, but shiny, reflective surfaces can be a challenge. You should be especially wary when measuring the temperature of shiny metal objects, but even reflections off of glossy paint can affect accuracy. Also you need to be very close to what you are reading. The laser is not reading temperature, that just shows where the center of the "cone" is and the farther you are away from the object the wider area your are reading. The gun will usually say how large the cone gets at varying distances.
Yeah, a piece of gaffer tape on the surface you want to measure would be helpful...
I was almost shouting at the screen: "Are you sure you're measuring the truck and not your reflection off the truck? Please even mention the possibility of this problem!"
The way you put your hand up at 15:53 felt like I was playing an FPS shooter
😂😂
In Europe you have to remove any blocking stuff on tail and front lights if you drive away. If you don't, you can get a ticket
No tganks
In Europe, you can’t have a Cybertruck as it won’t pass the EU safety regulations.
Cyber truck isn't road legal in Europe. It's too big and heavy and doesn't have crumple zones.
@@winstonsmith6552thank god
But we have so much blocking stuff here...we just can't make it illegal...plus we brush it off.
Yes, @Tesla, please add washer to rear camera.
Just clean the camera takes 1sec before you get in the car. Stop acting gay.
@andreasl4507 while I would normally agree, because the rear view mirror is useless you shouldn't have to worry about maintenance prior to driving your car just because it's dirty lol
@@andreasl4507 As a proud hetero, I should probably mention that after 10 minutes down every dirty/slushy road, the entire rear of the vehicle (including the camera) will be re-coated with grime. That's the reality of winter in the Midwest with any vehicle that has a flat back. 😀
@@andreasl4507Within a few miles it'll be covered again. We know from experience. Also "stop acting gay"? Are you a child?
@@paulrybarczyk5013 not just Midwest. Anywhere north of the 37° longitude line will have this problem when it snows.
"lose their minds in both directions" love it!
The wiper is designed to stay down so the trapped water doesn’t just blow back up the windshield. It pauses in the down position to give the collected water an opportunity to blow out to either side of the windshield.
Why not just start it in the down position?
@@TheNinthGenerarion That would seem logical because that’s how it has been done for 100 years. However, Tesla is not in the business of doing things the same way if there is a superior alternative. Believe it or not, the wiper in the down position interrupts the highly tuned aerodynamic flow of the truck and affects its efficiency. I believe it was Lars M. Or Hans V. from Tesla who gave a detailed explanation for the reasoning. They initially wanted to conceal the wiper under a pop up door, but discovered that parking the wiper in the upright position eliminated the airflow issue and eliminated the complexity of the hidden wiper compartment. You have to respect their eye for detail. 🙂
@@retiredbitjuggler3471 the truck is not aerodynamic at all, I doubt the wiper being upright makes that much difference. It also means that the windshield doesn’t actually get cleared off as the first sweep brings things down to the base then the second sweep allows it to go back up, rather than the common practice that pushes things out to the side first and off the windshield, then traps the remaining liquid under a bar to prevent it from going back up. Also, having one extremely long wiper means that the edges have very little strength, even normal wipers are a bit too long in some cases.
@@TheNinthGenerarion You should investigate this for yourself and not let it’s appearance fool you. It is far more aerodynamic than it looks. Don’t take my word for it - do some research for yourself and let me know what you discover.
I’m from Florida. Born and raised. Of course I watched the whole video Thanks, as usual, Chris!
same 😂
I'm in Georgia, yet here I am.
I'm in Europe, we don't even get the Cybertrucks
Dude, I don't know how you can be a KZheadr with all the ignorant comments. Could you imaging having to be around those people in real life. Kudos to you, and I appreciate your content.
😂 it's crazy. Read some of the ones just in this video
I concur Dr.
Being from a cold climate, I found this this video to be very informative! Thanks.
I've been watching your channel since you had a little over 2k subs and your videos only get better and better! 100k+ subs is well deserved! Congrats!!
That means a lot, thanks for sticking around :)
Bro Tesla strongly recommends not removing heavy snow with the wipers because the mechanism cannot handle the weight.
"Pre-condition for half an hour". Hilarious concept. I start my 3.2ltr Diesel at -20'C, and in twenty five minutes I'm at work enjoying hot breakfast.
Come on bro use your brain for a second unless those diesel fumes ruined it. The car can precondition while I'm in my house getting ready in the morning. You can get in an EV and leave with 0 preconditioning.
@@DirtyTesla My diesel will still be 'unconditioned', and belching out the black stuff, when every current Tesla product is resigned to scrap.
I knew I will find this comment , and I love both of you , two idiots arguing about who got the worst car , on one side the nerd with his over one hour preconditioning that he does not even need according to him , doing 180 miles with one full charge , and the other side chad with his 9 miles with a gallon diesel shit that he claims he does not have to warm up , and yet every fucking truck driver starts their engine 10-15 minutes before they go anywhere , even in the summer , annoying their neighbor with the bababababababababababababa noise all day everyday , so stop the cap both of you , you both are pathetic
Now that’s a proper dirty Cybertruck 🤭
Yes, but don't forget: Don't leave the dirt on it too long or the steainless steel gets damaged and don't use the car wash because the truck dies AND you loose your warranty. So have fun washing it by hand in below 0°C.
Thank you. Seemed a very balanced appraisal. Great to see how the Cybertruck performed
The most under-appreciated part about Tesla's is that fact you can do so much stuff like that from your phone! That's so nice
Yeah I precondition the car (which is in the garage) from my couch before I leave. Can't do that with an ICE car.
one could interpret that as a security risk
The best part is they dont have to take your phone from u when they take the car from u to fix it for a month. Terrible build quality
I mean my 2020 gas Mustang does most of that stuff though yes having full phone suits in 2024 is still uncommon.
@@knightrider693 bro what?💀💀💀💀💀💀 did you just say they take your phone?😭 you have NEVER EVER even USED a Tesla with that kinda low common sense over the vehicle. The fact you even thought the phone app is the only key the car has is hilarious asf. It’s people like you that decrease the logic of just about every comment section
The first thing I usually do when I want to use my car left outside in the snow, is to clear all the snow off it. I wonder why people don't do this first ? Maybe because snow is something unusual for them ? Anyway, good video nonetheless. Enjoy your Cybertruck !
Do you REALLY wonder why? Ignorance, laziness, or both. When I was a kid I remember commercials on TV about peephole drivers that warned of all the bad things that could happen.
they start doing it after someone else's snowpile flies off the car ahead and slams into their windshield
Good video, nice to see real world useful tests. I'm kind of sick of the cybertruck flex videos from others showing their wraps and wheels and public reactions.
I would be surprised if the headlights didn't catch snow during a drive. In my Rivian, the headlights aren't even inside of a groove, and the snow just cakes on the front of them (albeit slowly, but typically when it's a wetter snow).
My thoughts as well. I'd have to guess that if you're following another vehicle especially, that area is gonna get packed in with snow/slush.
The headlights would easily catch slush and salt. Yuk!
The heavier your vehicle is, the more important winter tires are. As a life long Canadian, all terrain or all season tires don't cut it.
Thanks again for Centigrade numbers. Awesome actual test with proper detail. LEGEND
my guess on the bed cover, the bed inside is exposed to 3 sides of warm area during pre conditioning, the window, the bottom (battery underneath maybe providing some heat?) and the driver side warming on the charge port side, so maybe its just a tad warmer under there when fully closed. To add, i imagine it wouldnt be too difficult (big assumption lol) to attach some heating elements inside the bumper (or even on top) right under the headlights somewhere and tie them into the system....sounds like a smart aftermarket product.
Omg the external camera views lt was soo badass! Like some practical effects of car chases frome multimillion budget blockbuster movie when tire was plowing the snow, mud & water by high speed & spinning!!! That was extremely satisfying!
We don't get snow down here in Texas but every few years and when we do the town shuts down so nobody is going anywhere but I still appreciated this video.
CHRIS - you dropped the snow shovel on the side of the truck - how could you damage the shovel like that /s
When you were going down the hill using the brake and it was sliding. I'm curious if you would have just used Regenerative braking would you have slid or would it made it so it maintained control and remained steerable .
He thought it was sliding... The camera showed the wheel turning. Electronic abs?
Nice video, thanks for the feedback. I ordered my Cybertruck 3/23 so I’m sure I am quite a ways away from getting it haha. Hope you and your family are enjoying yours. Love the front camera, I am hoping they will allow an option for one to add for my S and X plaid 🙏🏼, my S plaid is a 2021 so the sensors are easier IMO but for my 23 X plaid it’s difficult to park close without worries of how close to actually are
Front cam helps immensely for parking, the nose is so weird on this thing. If you're going foundation, I'm sure you'd take delivery this year.
Hey, thanks a ton for this video! I live in North Idaho which is snowy almost half the year, and I am interested in a Cybertruck. For a guy like me, this video is GOLD! You showed a lot of things I need to see. One question: What is the circular thingy on top of your center screen? Secondly, does Tesla offer snow tires for Cybertruck? That’s a must-have here. No way I could use all-weather tires. Thanks again!!
The circular thing is a phone mount from Jowua (link in description :P) and as of now Tesla doesn't offer snow tires, but you don't have to buy tires from Tesla, you can get them from anywhere as long as they're the right size.
@@DirtyTesla Thanks! I guess I would need to buy a set of Tesla rims, right? If I want to swap wheels twice a year (which is less wear and less work than removing and installing different tires on the same wheels), then I need Tesla’s tire pressure sensors to report tire pressure to the car gauges. Am I right? I am just thinking way ahead if I buy a CT. Thanks.
No, there are after market options for wheels and tires. You *can* get all Tesla stuff, but it's typically more expensive.
Enjoyed your review - it seemed really honest. And thank you for giving celsius temperatures - it's clearly outside your comfort zone - so I hope you don't mind if I mention that you said 4C when it was almost certainly 0.4C (because you also gave a farenheirt temperature of 31F). A 4C difference in farenheit is around 7F. But it's still nice to hear the celsius. 😊
You outdid yourself on this one, great shots, great video.
Thank you, a very good Snowy Demo.
The cool operating temperature of LED lights is one of the factors which make them last so long.
Saw it for the first time yesterday! Like a majestic unicorn crossing my path. Naturally I followed it for miles lol. It exceeded my expectations. Liked it before, love it now. Smaller than I thought. Less "ugly". But all around, fantastic.
That's the gayest thing I've ever read
Hey. I'm not sure, but battery is preheating as well with defrost feature or when you simply hit that climate button? Within 40 minutes, it would be pre-conditioned quite good, don't you think? For instance when you compare it to standard pre-conditioning when navigating to supercharger.
I've tried everything including charging and it simply takes a while for this battery to warm up. The pack is huge and the cells are huge, I think it's just the nature of the pack. It'll be an interesting test during the next polar vortex.
@@DirtyTesla make sense. Thanks for your content!
Good video. That's how I like to remember Michigan, not the more typical muddy slush. Has anyone actually used Tesla tire chains on their Tesla? I've got 'em for my Model Y but the traction control is so good I can't see every needing to use them. I drove up to the mountains about 6000' to play in the snow. Showing the chains got me past the check point. Up by Mt Baldy I drove into a snow bank to park. My Prius on the other hand.... great car, but even with tire chains on anything slippery it gets stuck. (The last time I had tire chains on the Prius was 2019 it slide down a slope into a snow plow. I hit the plow blade at about 1 mph so no damage. And to be fair, the snow plow (big dump truck) was also stuck. I spent a couple of hours trying to get down the mountain. The guys who helped me were snow plow truck drivers coming off their shift. They all had rear wheel drive cars and they were stuck.
if you watch the front bumper closely @10:32 you will see the snow melting which can only means that the front bumper is heated. Maybe it is not powerful enough to get the initial snow melted in 40 min but if you clear it before driving it should be able to keep it snow free.
yeah
I've seen other videos where the snow doesn't melt in front of the headlights while driving in snow.
I think that's from runoff, which is fine while parked, but may not work too well while driving
That is runoff water. No way that is heated
In a constant spray of slush or heavy snowfall? No way. The presenter mentioned the old incandescent headlights; I distinctly remember THEM freezing over when driving in snow. The CT's headlights, I think, will be a big fail in winter driving.
Great video. Thanks for testing with your Cybertruck
interesting to see the snow get in and around the charge port...I think this is the 3rd owner review video I have watched regarding the CT about the headlight issue.
Yeah, I think a lot of people don't realize that most of your snow driving is going to be in the tires, and snow tires are usually the difference between getting stuck and not. I put snow tires on every winter, no matter what car I'm driving, because I like not getting stuck. I'm sure it's the same with CT.
Same. I've had a few experiences that have lead me to put winter tires on any car I drive. Huge difference in braking distance and cornering.
Your snow wiping procedure was on point! 😂
Thanks for reminding me all the cool uses for a thermometer. I got😂 one during covid that I never even opened.
Excellent snow demonstration, thanks
THANK YOU for not being some douche "influencer" who acts like a total tool with his Cybertruck. Sober, normal-guy, with practical driving conditions doing a great review. You caught my interest as I live in the Sierra Nevada and we are obviously no strangers to snow. I'm taking delivery on my AWD in the next week or so - this video really put any winter worries to rest. I'd love to get more insight from you regarding the battery and the cold. Charging/discharging rates, all that good stuff. Any info is appreciated! Thanks again!
Great video! The Cybertruck is so cool! Also just so you know, at 18:42, the side camera got partly covered in snow so we couldn't see that well.
Nice of you to test whether snow falls in or not, but everyone with common sense living in snowy areas, would brush off the snow first. 😊 As for gasoline and diesel engines, you wouldn’t have to leave them running/ idling before driving. Having lived in cold/ wintery areas, my car had a preheater - an electric heater plugged into the engine block which you just plugged into a wall socket. If you had a timer, you could set it to start for instance an hour or two before driving to work. Then the engine would be well heated to just start and go. This also meant the heater worked quickly and inside the car it would be warm in no time.
That's cool. Where do you have an engine heater like that? In Michigan I've never met anyone that had that
12:00 2 ideas for the tonneau cover melting snow: since it was rolled up, it was slightly protected from the cold and was well over freezing when it was rolled down, so the snow that fell melted immediately OR the black color received just enough solar radiation to keep melt the snow. It looked like you filmed in very light snow or drift, I think under heavy snow it would accumulate on the tonneau easily.
Great to see it parked and charged outside, as it came from the factory! (What??? No wrap? No coatings? No heated garage for storage?)
The Dirty Tesla way :)
Really a fantastic video about the cyber truck, thanks very much...great job on this video.
You are so fair in your comments, what wrong with you? 😊 Your improvement suggestions are spot on. Anxious for FSD Cybertruck videos ...
Thank goodness you don't just speak in stupid units. It is much appreciated.
I live in Finland and we have long winter. I have never have any car I wouldn't need to brush clean from snow, so that's not a problem. However, the ice is. You can't count that you are always there to do it, so car should be made in a way the ice can block something important. In a past, I have had problems where thick ice forms in bumper and prevents opening the trunk. That's typically not problem with sedan modes, but many models with larger backdoor are problematic. Worst problems arise when it snows and then it partly melt before freezing in. It's practically solid ice, and thickness can be several centimeters. In our country, this type of weather is quite common. With cybertruck, headlights and bed cover would be frozen solid and without melting the ice, practically impossible to clean. For headlights, that's a big issue, which prevents driving.
How do you clear those sunken headlights if there's hard ice on them? My ice remover won't fit into that narrow gap; does Tesla give you a tool that actually fits to these specific headlights?
What a fun video! Your videos get better and better. Keep doing what you do.
Your wall charger can report energy drawn durring your defrost. how many kw's did it take to do that?
Excellent, informative cold climate video. -Trav in Minnesota
Wow. Awesome video. Thanks 🙏 heaps for all the info. So so helpful.
Quick tip: Infrared thermometers do not read accurately on reflective surfaces, so it's unlikely the stainless steel actually warmed anywhere near as much you measured. Also, the laser on these thermometers is just a laser pointer to show you the center of the circle area that it is measuring an average over. Typically circle diameter at x distance is notated on side of thermometer.
Actually, the stainless steel (or glass) will read lower that accurate due to its low emissivity and reflection of the cold outdoor temperatures.
@@rsteeb I believe it can also reflect infrared from other sources.
Black surface even in cloudy winter worms up from sun light, thats why bed cover wet.
I'd say you did absolutely nothing, 'wrong.' You're just doing you!
I wonder if you had it charging while preconditioning, if that would warm the battery faster?
I've tried it and it stays cold forever
@@DirtyTesla So you are saying precondition is disabled while charging or plugged in?
8:30 of you opened the frunk would the snow (or rain) all go into the frunk?
IR thermometers has to be told what surface they are looking at. If you point plastic and metal that are at the same temperature, the readings will not be the same, because the emission coefficient is not the same. Particularly true if the surfaces are dry. But if they are wet, you would possibly get more accurate results because the emission coefficient on both surface will be that of water. For example, i was testing that with an IR thermometer calibrated with "Metallic surface correction", and i was getting my oral temperature with it and it was telling 40+ degrees celcius, which was wrong.
20:37 could that be a button for the heated mirrors? It has that same kind of funky triangle look. My old car used to have heated mirrors and they worked perfectly, it’s a feature I miss on my current car.
Awesome video, even with celsius temperature! 👏👏👏😍😍😍
I’m wondering in freezing rain if those doors will be able to open. I gotta really pull on my doors pretty hard to break ice sometimes in the winter to get my truck doors open.
Pretty sure it has an ice breaker mechanism but we'll find out next winter
Q: Are the Camera’s Heated? I mean they must be must they not otherwise slush can freeze on them and you’ll crash if the cars affectively blind won’t it?
Yes, I show that with the temp gun at one point.
They're heated but you wouldn't crash. The car would warn about reduced visibility and tell the driver to take over and refuse to engage FSD.
Love your work, love your truck. I can’t wait to get one. Cheers from downunder 🇦🇺🇦🇺
Hey😊 now that’s a proper dirty Tesla 😊
There could be a lot of inaccuracy in your temperature measurements unfortunately as reflective surfaces such as stainless steel (or any surface which has low emissivity) will read at a lower temperature than they actually are as these infrared sensors read the temperature based on how much infrared energy is emitted and are generally calibrated for matte objects which have higher emissivity. Generally, you'll want to put a piece of matte tape on any reflective surfaces and then let it reach the temperature of the surface it is on.
In the UK during frost and snow people clean a six inch patch on the windscreen and wind the side windows down rather than exert themselves any further.
4:53 you are a master of physics.
😂
I dont think you can get an accurate read of the stainless steel with an IR probe because the surface has different emissivity, it might be picking up your reflection. If you put a piece of black tape over it then you would get a more accurate read
Those all terrain tires are actually pretty bad on snow compared to something like the Crossclimate2 (which I don't think you can have on such a big wheels)
Great review I ordered a CT 4 years ago and I live in the Northeast.👍. Needs a few improvements 👌
It mite be intresting to see how all this effects a non plugged in truck's battery. How it effects your overall range.
Nice review. It seems ok. In my opinion the styling could use great improvement. Thanks for sharing this with us!
Nice Test! 👍
Thanks for allowing the snow to fall off 😅. Yeah it did look nice can’t lie
You should always clean off the snow on any vehicle before using it, in fact here it’s required by law
By law? Smoke another one lol
@@awsabeandogrescue I'll smoke another one, by law. Then I'll try that some of that wasabean dog barbecue.
Those are not all season tires, are they?
Tesla insiders mentioned today that up to 20% of cybertruck production workforce will be layed off this week.
I don't think that infrared meter works well on highly reflective materials like a stailess steel. It is more precise on emissive materials. It seems you had it poited towards your reflection and perhaps measureed your relatively hot reflection instead of the surface itself.
Is it going to be your forever daily driver or just till the clicks stop.?.
What's the triangular section behind the rearview mirror for? It looks out of place.
I believe that would be the built in dash cam
Well, I recall temps in parts of Canada hitting -36 which is pretty much the same F or C. I'm guessing we'd still be warming up. 12 HOURS LATER...
Question: (I know they wrap the truck for $5K to keep it from rusting) But do they wrap the inside of the panels? Or is it going to rust from the inside out? Thanks
Uh... there is no wrap on the truck lol it doesn't rust
So to open the door, it needs to lower the glass. What will happen if the glass is covered with ice and frozen. Can it heat the door glass without entering the vehicle?
All Teslas do this so I have experience with this already, there's a couple ways Tesla deals with this. 1. defrosting will help with this but 2. when below a certain temperature, Tesla keeps the windows *slightly* down when parked, not enough to let snow in, but enough that it makes it easy to move when needed. Parking my Y outside I never had an issue with this mechanism.
All terrain tires are actually pretty bad for snow. Snow tires try and hold onto snow because snow-on-snow traction is pretty high whereas all terrain tires try and get rid of mud because mud-on-mud traction is low
Nice video man, can you tell me who make the soung at 10:32 pls ;').
