Trailer stores are basically a fuel/service station. Buy a trailer take the fuel/parts then sell it or leave it for future use.

I just bought this game and I’m addicted. Can’t wait for work to be over so I can get home and get knee deep in muck!

[micheljolicoeur]

For tip 12, another consideration is that cargo in a trailer is "pulling weight" which lowers your traction where as cargo in your sideboard on the truck is weight on your wheels which adds traction.

[nfsfanAndrew]

Make sure you're delievering trailers/supplies to the correct place... i spent 2 hours getting a semi with a 53 ft tanker trailer up an over the mountain through rocks just to find out i went to the wrong place. Was pissed. Granted I got that truck through some ridiculous places :P

[leodriscoll]

Couple things to add, if pulling a trailer and you get stuck and are trees and stuff are beside you and not ahead, the trailer will also have winch points and you can attach the rear winch point on trailer to the trees beside the truck (witch means they are ahead of the trailer) to then winch the whole truck and trailer forward. Also when putting a bed on a truck, you might consider using the flat bed over the box bed, as it carries the same as the box, and will fit loads of pipe that will not fit on the box trailer.

i do hate how the game heavily suggest that you should move on to Alaska right after discovering the garage.

[blazepedigo]

One thing to add is that sometimes having weight on your truck can help it chew through mud and also helps the tuck stay planted while crossing rough streams. Driving with nothing in the bed of the truck will for sure make it more difficult to traverse deep mud and water. This does not work with trailers because you are dragging dead weight and the less dead weight the better. Loaded truck bed= better mudding results. The axles need that weight to force it down to the bottom of the mud and grab dry ground increasing traction.

Here is a tip, they're the best part. You can attach a winch and connect two vehicle then pull the other one to where you are going. For instance, I will attach a scout and pull it with a heavy to get to where I'm going, if I need a second truck. You can even pull a scout to another map without a garage, that way you don't have to drive both vehicles. A ramped flatbed works for towing too, but you might not always have access to one. You always have a winch.

For first zone: Warehouse sells you all the types, no need to buy metal planks from halfway across the map

I love this game. It's such a massive improvement from Mudrunner and even that game (and spin tires the original game) was so much fun.
Snow Runner has so much that you can do on each map.

I could give you hug for this video! You saved me HOURS! That "focus on tasks first" suggestion is spot on! That downed power line sent me on a HUGE detour yesterday that got me in trouble.

[thomasstanley]

A big tip too when ur going round the map in just a scout car and ur just looking and finding stuff take a fuel trailer with u then u can go all over the map and not hav to worry about ur fuel

[razorblade]

You should also look around the map for trailers with cargo on them. Most of the trailers do have cargo which is required for a task or mission nearby, so you only need to pull the trailer a few hundred metres instead of delivering cargo from the warehouse all across the map. On Smithville Dam, service spare parts for the Quarry sit on a trailer just a little further up the road and lumber for the farm sits on a semi trailer just north of it.

I apologize if this info is widely known... I just accidentally discovered that (LB+A for Xbox One and L1+X for PS4 I think. I’m not sure what it is for PC) will turn engine on and off without having to go into the functions menu to turn engine on and off. Hope this helps.

To build off of Tip 13 with using a crane. If you have a crane on your vehicle, you can choose to manually load your own cargo instead of it being "auto-loaded" If you manually load your own cargo, I believe you gain a bit of bonus when you complete that task. Also, when you manually load your own cargo, make sure to "Pack Cargo". If you don't pack the cargo after you've loaded it, then your trailer/truck doesn't actually register has carrying cargo...despite you seeing cargo onboard.

Also, if you detach from a trailer to recall your vehicle to your garage, make sure the cargo is packed. Otherwise, when you recall your vehicle and the map refreshes, it will force your cargo to clip through the trailer and get stuck underneath it. And if you arrive at a location with the proper cargo and the game doesn't want to register it, leave the "delivery area" and then unpack and repack your cargo. This should then reregister the fact your truck does have the proper cargo and you should then be able to complete the delivery.

I've seen people actually give very bad reviews and claim the game is broken/bugged because something happened during their traveling and it caused their cargo to become unsecured and they forgot to repack the cargo (Even going as far as to attack the people in the comments who tried to explain it to them that it wasn't a bug and they just screwed it up themselves.)

[KNR]

In Smithville dam there is a service area right near the entrance where you can get service parts to bring back rather than bringing them all the way across the map from the warehouse. Wish I discovered that much earlier

[valhalla]

On the map press Y (Xbox) to skip time...sometimes it’s nicer to be moving through rough terrain during daylight also hold left button and hit B (Xbox) and your lights come on

[GoatMeal]

I'm so glad to see you guys (content creators) expanding your horizons, beyond just division 2. The game is in such a broken state, and the devs need to understand that players have many other options, and so do you content creators 👍🏽

[kavemanxx]

A big help for me if your having trouble with a trailer and need to turn it around just release it get behind it and winch it and then reverse it. I spent 10 minutes getting no where to do that and get sorted in 30 seconds. Great video.
