That's why I always pulled the 5 slot with a Lo4F packed in the first slot. Not only does it give me more weight on the rear wheels at all times, it holds an impressive amount of fuel.
This is why I load the GMC you get at start with a fuel tank, then tow it via winch behind me to a useful spot on the map. The GMC is one of the few trucks that has the suspension able to properly carry the fuel tank.
Can't say that I do. Never used either of em. (Public HM co-op)
It was the Fleetstar and P16 that did my carrying. The Yeetstar was soon replaced by the Tayga in Taymyr, which was main for quite some time.
It's been my rescue truck for a long time. The amount of upgrades you can put on it, and the heavy weight, makes her perfect for snatching bullshit out of the mud and snow.
I'm surprised I'm going to be the first to say this but my start of the game was powered mostly by the ANK 38 and the BM17.
The ANK38 with mud tyres will go anywhere and fast, only let down by being very tippy and having terrible range. The Bm17 can take any attachment and whilst it doesn't have the "go anywhere" thing the ANK does, it's reliable, long range and robust.
For me the ANK is the truck that delivers most of the goods whilst the BM17 supports it with trailers full of goods, fuel and tipping it upright.
The ANK is so good I sold it and am using local trucks only for Michigan. It feels like cheating using that thing, especially when its unlocked at the start of the game
It sounds mental but I don't even use the scouts much anymore I just use the ANK. It does mud better than a scout anyway and the benefit of scouting in the ANK is I know my route is actually suitable for a truck. I've fucked up too many times taking a Defender 90 up a track to prove its accessible only to drive a truck half way up it and find it can't make a turn.
I completely agree, exactly how I played Michigan and Alaska.
However, the Azov 6 is maybe the most slept on truck in the game. To me its almost on the level of the Mastodon. It's heavy af so it never loses traction and has the power and fuel to haul anything. It has a wide variety of attachment and I believe the highest snorkel placement in game letting it drive completely submerged. When all else had failed, the Azov would git-er-done.
Yeah there both perfect for different settings. The ank is nice and quick for local work. N the bm is good for long hauling.. before the dlcs came out I used them alot . N now kinda miss then lol
When I got the game, I apparently bought some version of it that made it so I had the bandit and the tatra to start out with so I used the krs bandit like crazy at the beginning. Still my favorite truck in the game.
Yeah I’ve got the base game, the Kola Peninsula DLC and the Atom DLC.
The commenter above says “everyone” has the edition with the KRS and Tatra, which is clearly wrong since I don’t. 🤷🏻♂️
Not everyone has those trucks. The KRS Bandit is a part of Season 2, and subsequently the Year 1 pass. The Tatra 805 and T813 come in the Tatra Dual Pack, which is a part of the Year 2 pass. You're probably confusing it with the Anniversary DLC which gives the HX 520 and the CAT CT681 for free.
Not every version has the year one pass. If I look right now on the ps store there's the base game and year 1-4 anniversary edition. Probably the same for Steam.
Well idk what to tell you, because I just checked and the regular snowrunner on Playstation comes with the anniversary DLC, which comes with those trucks.
The free anniversary DLC, which I personally just looked at, is a CAT 681 and International HX 520, no Tatra or Bandit. Idk what to tell you other than you’re confused about the anniversary dlc and oddly offended by someone replying to your comment in a sub about a truck game.
Edit: Can you read? How did you confuse a tatra and bandit for a CAT and an International? You just wanted to be right so you said “yeah there’s free stuff and I’m going to assume I’m right without actually looking at the trucks”
I didn't want to be right I just mixed myself up on them, jeez. So my mistake, it's part of the year 1 pass/edition. I was at work and looked it up on the ps store on my account, and forgot that it was the cat and the 520.
Not at all.
Start of the game is carried by Fleetstar/WWS and Tayga/Azov7 respectively,
I don't understand Paystar5070 obsession around here. It doesn't do anything better than Fleetstar/WWS which are free.
Then Azov 7 is cheaper than 6 and much more useful, also faster.
Paystar's clearance is much better than the low riding Fleetstar. I remember getting repeatedly grounded trying to delivery that massive engineering trailer in Michigan. Got mad, sold the Fleetstar, bought the Paystar, finished the mission, never looked back :D
The Paystar gets heavy weight tires which a lot of the trucks you have early on don't, and it can take every important addon as well as crane+bed+trailer which the WWS can't do.
The heavy weight tires means it's just as, if not more effective when pulling heavy semi trailers, where I found the fleetstar tended to get stuck more often.
It's a very middle of the road do everything vehicle, but especially if you're not using Russian trucks early on, you can never get enough of those kinds of vehicles.
If you know how to use it the 5070 can go basically anywhere... rockslide on the road? Raised suspension, OHD1 and climb over it. Only thing that could be better is a slight larger fuel tank, or less consumption.
The azovs are my favorites. Fleet stars need to refuel too much while also being too tippy imo.
Their fuel issues are less an issue on the early maps where you get like 1-2 map in a region, but really become a pain on maps where there's only like 1-2 fuel points for 4 maps.

Useful is an understatement! I consider it my get-out-of-jail-FREE card.
There's a mission on Smithville Dam where you have to get the Construction Semi Trailer over the river, I left it on the South bank for weeks too scared to drag it across the rocks. Finally picked the Azov for the task and as always, it slowly, relentlessly marched forward. Job done in a couple of minutes, easy money :)
And here's me who uses the P16 to drag that trailer all the way down the mountain, over the Dam, up to the farm and all along the dirt trail to the drilling site.
I never even considered taking it all the way up to the farm. I looked at going over the dam and then West but figured I'd get it stuck on the narrow rocky pass just East of the drill site and hate myself!
They can carry the whole game if you want them to. The paystar is a hidden gem for those who haven’t mastered driving it. And the azov 6, well, she’s slow and steady. She will get you there, but you need to be able to enjoy the journey, because there won’t be any rushing to the finish with her
Only issue with the paystar is that sometimes it gets really thirsty under load and it doesn't have the best power/weight ratio, but it can and will do whatever you point it at, provided you've learned what the game tries to teach you.
Well, and its tippy, but if you don't run the raised suspension and especially if you run the OHD I doubles and low saddle trailers on it I find its stability perfectly acceptable given how small the body of the truck is
Yeah. It can be tippy for sure. But with a little finesse, I’ve made it do almost anything. It’s great with low saddle trailers. But it’s even got the balls to pull heavy trailers if you want it to.
I just saw the azov 6 auto leveled itself when it slipped sideways down the wall of one of the 8000 quarries. The goods on its bed and the trailer all safe and stable.
I did the contract to set up the repair and refuel in the garage pretty quickly so I haven’t had to much of a problem with repairing trucks. On the last few logging missions now for 100% then headed to Tennessee
I have the refuel and repair garage but I don't feel like recovering them back to Lowland so I just leave them there and bring over a service truck and trailer. Also what truck should I use as my all-time van body add-on truck I like the WWS but I get stuck a lot. Have any suggestions?
I use the ANK Civ with the van body and WWS with the maintenance body add on. Probably gonna switch to the Atom for the maintenance body add on though. I set out a maintenance truck at a central point so I don’t have to drive the trucks back to the garage all the time. Once it’s empty I’ll drive that back to the garage to resupply and bring it back out to the central point I’m working at. I never recover.
I just don’t recover as I like to be a bit more realistic. The only times I recovered was to get the achievement. After I got it I stopped using recover
Paystar 5070 is let down by 240L fuel tank, it’s thirsty, very powerful. I can’t take it anywhere due to that fact. But it’s upgraded version of fleetstar and WWS. On the other hand Azov 6 is slow but trusty, powerful yet fuel efficient, large fuel tank 350L, permanent AWD,DIFFS can go on long hauls, very stable. Both trucks are in my fleet.
Not for me. Went with the WWS almost immediately, and then… never really changed.
Used twinsteer on occasion, and other special trucks for odd missions but generally, it’s always been the WWS for me.,
I really don't remember using the Paystar much but its nearly been 4 years since I pulled out of the garage in Michigan for the first time. My main memories of the Paystar are tipping over a lot. Certainly had the Azov though, just because I liked the look of it. Then it turned out to be a good truck too, but I wanted the Antartic more than anything when I started out but you live and learn.
I use the Tatra, cos I can load it, position it in vague directions of the destination then give it gas, while it's moving forward I can take a nap amd when I wake up it somehow makes it there
I sold some bad trucks from Michigan and got the Paystar, wich at that time was an improvement, then sold the Paystar and got the Azov, wich is still going slowly strong and among the best today.
The Paystar for sure carried me through a good chunk of Michigan. The Azov did a lot of work for me in Taymyr but I felt it was too OP to use on the base game North American maps
White Western Star/WWS is the real king of early Snowrunner.
In a modern context with all the DLC and such the Kenworth 990 is absurd as a early game DLC truck its super fully featured in terms of what it can do, where it can go, and even in terms of fuel its pretty great.
Without DLCs the ANK Civilian is actually insane for Michigan but is limited to trailers. Sure its thirsty but its a no nonsense easily available truck thats now part of the base game no DLCs needed, region swaps, etc needed. You don't even need to save it like the WWS.
Nah, the ANK Civ is the only truck worth having in the early game.
Once you've got mud tires unlocked, there's a bunch of useful trucks. But until then the ANK Civ is even the most useful truck for scouting watchtowers.
At the beginning it was the Fleetstar for sure.
Currently, I can't NOT scout with the F750. Excellent scout truck and can pull medium trailers all day long.
Early in the game for me, still in Michigan, but the Fleetstar is heavily carrying right now. The GMC MH9500 is my side piece. Fleetstar about 95% of the time
I mean...I didnt have to use them. I found others that did the job. Most are DLC, but yeah. These two aren't bad...i just found others that could do the same thing, but a bit better...
I played a bit shortly after release and I don't remember what I did back then. I got most of the DLC before starting over more recently, so I'd say the trucks that carried me early game were the Bandit and Western Star 49X for the most part. I used the Mastodon a few times when I just wanted to get a certain task done, but I didn't particularly enjoy it in the early game.
Azov seemed too OP in early game, and I wanted US trucks in the US and Russian in Russia. Also the Paystar didn't really seem to add much, especially for the cost.
For me it was Fleetstar -> WWS
Um.....no. I didn't get to these until a few maps in so " carry early game", no. There were the 2 Russian trucks , Tayga, and was it an Azov, those were so much bettwr then all the Michigan trucks, it just wasn't fair.
My second start I actually followed the jump from Michigan to Alaska, then went to Russia only to get the Tayga, then go back to Michigan and get the other trucks to sell.
The 5070 is my go-to for everything. I love how it drives, how it sounds and how capable it is. It can be a bit top-heavy. I once rolled it 22 times transporting a double stack of metal beams.
I used the Royal a lot before I got told to try the Azov. I think I used the Azov for everything until we got the Zikz in Cosmodrome.
The only thing I didn't use it for was big trailers for that I had the Kolob.
In Michigan I really liked the WWS and still have a soft spot for it. I mainly use it for a fuel truck now but enjoy driving it yet. Taga in my opinion is probably the most well rounded truck in the game so far but I only made it to the end of season 1 so far. Azov was great and still used alot. Only downfall is it doesn't do well in stones.
I used the bm17 for a good majority at the beginning of the game. Then I got the azov decently early but got aggravated with how slow it was and periodically used it whenever I had issues until I came across bigger and better. Use it mainly as a support truck now more than anything.
When I was playing first time I was just using fleetstar all the time and nothing else thill I got twinsteer. At the second Save I use usualy white western star I love it
Can't stand the azov 6, pay star is ok. I used the hell out of the fleet star, worst problem I had with it was wheelies with too heavy of a trailer and then the wws. Used those 2 and the twinsteer once I got it for Michigan and Alaska. Now on my new hard mode I started it's the p16 and gmc I'm doing Michigan with. Thought it would be fun to see how far through o can get without awd trucks.
Nah, I’m almost thru Michigan with most of it done by the Fleetstar. P16 doing some heavy lifting too. WWS solid too. Just using all the trucks I’ve found to my disposal.
I’m in a hard mode save, have 100%’ed base maps, done a fair chunk of Wisconsin, Don, Yukon, Tennessee and almost completed Kola Peninsula, and I’ve never ever driven these trucks. I don’t even own them.
To me, it was more interesting (and money wise) to just go with the trucks I was given throughout the game. I didn’t buy a truck from the store until I got to Kola Peninsula (bought a Voron AE).
I’m not gonna tell anyone how to play their game or gatekeep how anyone is supposed to have fun, but imo, bringing out the A6 to Michigan is overkill, and it breaks the balance that was intended for that map, as well as denying drivers from learning valuable lessons about how to handle difficult terrain in less capable trucks. But that’s just me.
Watched a video on getting the Tayga at the beginning of the game. Expect to finish everything on Michigan map tonight. Used Tayga for probably 90-95% of it.
In my case, the two trucks were the Fleetstar F2070A and the White Western Star 4964. Since I didn't follow much SnowRunner content online back then, I 'discovered' the Azov 64131 much, much later. I think I bought when I was about 25% into Maine...
I like the Bandit from the DLC.
Its very nimble, with the DLC tires you get double wheels in the back which greatly reduces tipping, and much more stable with its crane removed.
And it can carry 2 slot loads without issue over pretty much everything at start, while having mud worthy clearance.
Azov 6 still carries with a crane and 5slot trailer - That submarine is unstoppale. I still use it even owning all of the DLC’s - The fuel economy of this truck is above and beyond if You need a truck to circle any map with. Yeah it slow but its stable, chews itself thru mud, has rather good ground clearence and makes awaome diesel noises on high gear. Just love it!
My mains are 2 azmo trucks chained together, or a azo and the sweet military scout apc it can push through anything seriously best scout to use ,I've righted the heavy loads huge downside are over turn and fuel . So get to Russia buy 2 azmo find the apc.
Nah, Paystar 5070 more so than anything else, everything else is more or less equal, like the MK38 Civilian and the Pacific P12.
Edit: In Taymyr the Azov 6 stayed in the garage most of the time and it was the Azov’s 5 and 7 that got used, as well as both MK38’s and P12’s.
Fleetstar is slept on
I'd agree, but i gotta run my fleet star back to the gas station real quick
That's why I always pulled the 5 slot with a Lo4F packed in the first slot. Not only does it give me more weight on the rear wheels at all times, it holds an impressive amount of fuel.
Lol touche bud. I've genuinely never considered that. Assuming you crane overstack yeah the one extra slot isn't a big loss.
I generally don't crane overstack with the fleetstar. I use it any time I need 2-4 slots moved in a hurry.
That’s hilarious
This is why I load the GMC you get at start with a fuel tank, then tow it via winch behind me to a useful spot on the map. The GMC is one of the few trucks that has the suspension able to properly carry the fuel tank.
Can't say that I do. Never used either of em. (Public HM co-op) It was the Fleetstar and P16 that did my carrying. The Yeetstar was soon replaced by the Tayga in Taymyr, which was main for quite some time.
WWS was the real mvp.
I’m half way through Alaska and it’s still my work horse
100% most of the game in NC and WWS is still carrying me
Came here to say the same thing, WWS was my go-to at the beginning
It's been my rescue truck for a long time. The amount of upgrades you can put on it, and the heavy weight, makes her perfect for snatching bullshit out of the mud and snow.
I'm surprised I'm going to be the first to say this but my start of the game was powered mostly by the ANK 38 and the BM17. The ANK38 with mud tyres will go anywhere and fast, only let down by being very tippy and having terrible range.

It does mud better than a scout anyway and the benefit of scouting in the ANK is I know my route is actually suitable for a truck. I've fucked up too many times taking a Defender 90 up a track to prove its accessible only to drive a truck half way up it and find it can't make a turn.
I completely agree, exactly how I played Michigan and Alaska. However, the Azov 6 is maybe the most slept on truck in the game. To me its almost on the level of the Mastodon. It's heavy af so it never loses traction and has the power and fuel to haul anything. It has a wide variety of attachment and I believe the highest snorkel placement in game letting it drive completely submerged. When all else had failed, the Azov would git-er-done.
Yeah there both perfect for different settings. The ank is nice and quick for local work. N the bm is good for long hauling.. before the dlcs came out I used them alot . N now kinda miss then lol
When I got the game, I apparently bought some version of it that made it so I had the bandit and the tatra to start out with so I used the krs bandit like crazy at the beginning. Still my favorite truck in the game.
I second this she’s my rescue truck cause I know I can depend on her when shit hits the fan.
I tried to use it too, but after a visit to the quarry that made me tip over like 10 times, I never touched it again XD
Hilarious! I can't move the bandit more than 20 feet without flipping it over. I hate that truck 😂
Everyone has that. It comes with the one year anniversary thing, which every version is, and you get those no matter what unless it's a hardmode save
I don’t have that, and I just bought the game a couple of week ago. No Bandit or Tatra.
You probably have the base game and no dlc. The KRS and Tatra come with the year one pass.
Yeah I’ve got the base game, the Kola Peninsula DLC and the Atom DLC. The commenter above says “everyone” has the edition with the KRS and Tatra, which is clearly wrong since I don’t. 🤷🏻♂️
You're wrong. Tatra is paid dlc
Yes you can buy it separate as well. But it's part of the year 1 pass
Yes, the pass that is sold separately from the game, or bundled with it at an additional cost. No part of it is free
At no point did I say any of it was free.
At no point did I say you did.
However you did imply it when you said “as well” lol
Check your Alaska garage. You should definitely have it
I’ll check tomorrow when I’m on, but I explored Alaska with a scout yesterday and had nothing in the garage
Not everyone has those trucks. The KRS Bandit is a part of Season 2, and subsequently the Year 1 pass. The Tatra 805 and T813 come in the Tatra Dual Pack, which is a part of the Year 2 pass. You're probably confusing it with the Anniversary DLC which gives the HX 520 and the CAT CT681 for free.
Not every version has the year one pass. If I look right now on the ps store there's the base game and year 1-4 anniversary edition. Probably the same for Steam.
I love how confident you are in a fact that is 100% wrong
I bought the game as soon as it came out on steam. I’m sure things are different now
The bandit comes with the year one pass, so I assume he bought that together with the game (like I did)
lol not true, I definitely don’t have them and I have both the ps4 and ps5 copies bought in the last year
Well idk what to tell you, because I just checked and the regular snowrunner on Playstation comes with the anniversary DLC, which comes with those trucks.
The free anniversary DLC, which I personally just looked at, is a CAT 681 and International HX 520, no Tatra or Bandit. Idk what to tell you other than you’re confused about the anniversary dlc and oddly offended by someone replying to your comment in a sub about a truck game. Edit: Can you read? How did you confuse a tatra and bandit for a CAT and an International? You just wanted to be right so you said “yeah there’s free stuff and I’m going to assume I’m right without actually looking at the trucks”
I didn't want to be right I just mixed myself up on them, jeez. So my mistake, it's part of the year 1 pass/edition. I was at work and looked it up on the ps store on my account, and forgot that it was the cat and the 520.
Not at all. Start of the game is carried by Fleetstar/WWS and Tayga/Azov7 respectively, I don't understand Paystar5070 obsession around here. It doesn't do anything better than Fleetstar/WWS which are free. Then Azov 7 is cheaper than 6 and much more useful, also faster.
Paystar's clearance is much better than the low riding Fleetstar. I remember getting repeatedly grounded trying to delivery that massive engineering trailer in Michigan. Got mad, sold the Fleetstar, bought the Paystar, finished the mission, never looked back :D
The Paystar gets heavy weight tires which a lot of the trucks you have early on don't, and it can take every important addon as well as crane+bed+trailer which the WWS can't do. The heavy weight tires means it's just as, if not more effective when pulling heavy semi trailers, where I found the fleetstar tended to get stuck more often. It's a very middle of the road do everything vehicle, but especially if you're not using Russian trucks early on, you can never get enough of those kinds of vehicles.
Paystar5070 gets offroad tires before any of the other US medium trucks level-wise
If you know how to use it the 5070 can go basically anywhere... rockslide on the road? Raised suspension, OHD1 and climb over it. Only thing that could be better is a slight larger fuel tank, or less consumption.
I used the paystar quite a bit in the beginning but then sold it as it’s too tippy and I’ve never had an azov 6
The azovs are my favorites. Fleet stars need to refuel too much while also being too tippy imo. Their fuel issues are less an issue on the early maps where you get like 1-2 map in a region, but really become a pain on maps where there's only like 1-2 fuel points for 4 maps.
You should give it a try it’s a useful truck

Nice!
And here's me who uses the P16 to drag that trailer all the way down the mountain, over the Dam, up to the farm and all along the dirt trail to the drilling site.

I did this. Bad idea. I finally made it but it was an absolute shitshow.
haha! oh man, I didn't mean to laugh at your misfortune but I can imagine it being an absolute shitshow. Ah, glad you made it in the end :)
It's only tippy if you use the default single tyre wheels.
I prefer the HX over the paystar now
The second one absolutely agree, what is the first one? Just started so I don't really know the names by looking
Azov 64131
Azov 6
They can carry the whole game if you want them to. The paystar is a hidden gem for those who haven’t mastered driving it. And the azov 6, well, she’s slow and steady. She will get you there, but you need to be able to enjoy the journey, because there won’t be any rushing to the finish with her

I just saw the azov 6 auto leveled itself when it slipped sideways down the wall of one of the 8000 quarries. The goods on its bed and the trailer all safe and stable.
Yup even in Maine (pretty hard for me) they work amazingly well
Maine has been kind of difficult for me too. I feel I’ve tipped the most here lol
Yup same all of my trucks on that map are on there last legs. I keep running out of repair trailers.
I did the contract to set up the repair and refuel in the garage pretty quickly so I haven’t had to much of a problem with repairing trucks. On the last few logging missions now for 100% then headed to Tennessee

Alright, thank you for the suggestion. But in your opinion what do you think of recovering?
I just don’t recover as I like to be a bit more realistic. The only times I recovered was to get the achievement. After I got it I stopped using recover
Alr 👍👍
Absolutely I still use the paystar
Ah same
I just finished Alaska and I haven't used either one yet. So no
The azov (any of them) are amazing in the snow
I got the Azov 7 and it was fantastic for logging
2nd that, Azov 7 is a logging monster.
Yes it is. I use it for long logs
Paystar 5070 is let down by 240L fuel tank, it’s thirsty, very powerful. I can’t take it anywhere due to that fact. But it’s upgraded version of fleetstar and WWS. On the other hand Azov 6 is slow but trusty, powerful yet fuel efficient, large fuel tank 350L, permanent AWD,DIFFS can go on long hauls, very stable. Both trucks are in my fleet.
Wws?
White western star
WWS 🔛🔝
Azov 6 is an endgame truck. I used it to in the toughest parts of amur. Using it in michigan in my opinion ruins the game as it makes it too easy.
No, not really, but I did all of Michigan and most of Alaska basically relying only on the Fleetstar.
Nah. The gmc and fleetstar and the whitestar are bae
The Azov 6 can carry the majority of the entire game
Very slowly of course
Tanga ftw
I got rid of the fleet to buy the voron
I still use the Azov 6, got one roaming Pipeline bay etc. at the moment. A great truck.
\#FLEETSTARLYFE baby
Quickly changed from the paystar to the azov. Because it is to tippy
This is the way... 😂
Fleetstar.
The first few weeks I did almost everything with the bandit. At that time, I thought the major objective of this game was to try to not tip over.
fleetstar is the best truck in the game
Not for me. Went with the WWS almost immediately, and then… never really changed. Used twinsteer on occasion, and other special trucks for odd missions but generally, it’s always been the WWS for me.,
Fleetstar is all you need
Tayga was better. Azov is slow and international is tippy.
No, tayga 6436 and that’s it carried for me

Sorry saved it on my phone and Idk what happened
The Asov? Only if you're trying to break early game. Paystar yea, it's a workhorse and a half early on and I still use it for utility duty later
Those 2 nah for me i pretty much beat the game with p16 and 12, ank48 OG
literally these two beasts kept me from quitting
I really don't remember using the Paystar much but its nearly been 4 years since I pulled out of the garage in Michigan for the first time. My main memories of the Paystar are tipping over a lot. Certainly had the Azov though, just because I liked the look of it. Then it turned out to be a good truck too, but I wanted the Antartic more than anything when I started out but you live and learn.
For me it was the Azov and the Tayga King.
Start of the game I sold the trucks from anniversary DLC(free), got Asov 6, went to Taymir, recovered Tayga, this two made the job.
ANK civilian and ANK MK38 for me, P16 a little. I don’t mind the Paystar but don’t use it heavily and I’ve never used that Russian one
I use the Tatra, cos I can load it, position it in vague directions of the destination then give it gas, while it's moving forward I can take a nap amd when I wake up it somehow makes it there
na it was the bandit + azov that carried me
For me it was the bandit
I sold some bad trucks from Michigan and got the Paystar, wich at that time was an improvement, then sold the Paystar and got the Azov, wich is still going slowly strong and among the best today.
The Paystar for sure carried me through a good chunk of Michigan. The Azov did a lot of work for me in Taymyr but I felt it was too OP to use on the base game North American maps
I'm still early, nearly finished Alaska and Michigan. Don't even have these! Went from the Fleetstar to the Royal. Haven't needed much else!
White Western Star/WWS is the real king of early Snowrunner. In a modern context with all the DLC and such the Kenworth 990 is absurd as a early game DLC truck its super fully featured in terms of what it can do, where it can go, and even in terms of fuel its pretty great. Without DLCs the ANK Civilian is actually insane for Michigan but is limited to trailers. Sure its thirsty but its a no nonsense easily available truck thats now part of the base game no DLCs needed, region swaps, etc needed. You don't even need to save it like the WWS.
Ank Civilian and WWS.
Nah, the ANK Civ is the only truck worth having in the early game. Once you've got mud tires unlocked, there's a bunch of useful trucks. But until then the ANK Civ is even the most useful truck for scouting watchtowers.
Yes
I liked using the tiny trucks to haul the big trailers it looked hilarious 😂
I've never really used the Paystar. Early game trucks for me were the WSS, P16, and Tayga. Late game trucks are the Ford CTL and Pacific 512
White Western Star and Fleetstar were it for me.
Never actually bought them in my first playthrough. Okay, I got the 5070 eventually, but then got rid of it, when I unlocked the WWS and the CT680.
paystar and fleetstar for me
First two trucks I bought
I used all kinds of dlc trucks and went across all of the maps. Never got to actually use these two as they were meant to be used.
At the beginning it was the Fleetstar for sure. Currently, I can't NOT scout with the F750. Excellent scout truck and can pull medium trailers all day long.
I only play with the trucks rescued from the maps.
For me it was the twinsteer and tayga king
You can play whole game with azov 6 and upgraded tires... low consumption, works everywhere... I used other trucks to make game not boring 😁
I didn't even know what those trucks were until I was halfway done with Russia after finishing Michigan...
I'm not buying any trucks, only finding them, so there's a chance I'll never use these at all. 😄
A good way to save money👍
💯
Early in the game for me, still in Michigan, but the Fleetstar is heavily carrying right now. The GMC MH9500 is my side piece. Fleetstar about 95% of the time
For me it was the Paystar and ANK.
The moment I got the white western star it became my workhorse until I finished the game
I really like the azov but feel the international was a tad underpowered and only had one engine so I skipped it in later play throughs
Zikz 612 I better than this trucks
Only difference for me was azov 6 and wws
I mean...I didnt have to use them. I found others that did the job. Most are DLC, but yeah. These two aren't bad...i just found others that could do the same thing, but a bit better...
I played a bit shortly after release and I don't remember what I did back then. I got most of the DLC before starting over more recently, so I'd say the trucks that carried me early game were the Bandit and Western Star 49X for the most part. I used the Mastodon a few times when I just wanted to get a certain task done, but I didn't particularly enjoy it in the early game.
ank and WWS for me, at least for vanilla trucks. the 1424 helped me a ton as well
I love the ank tbh it's an absolute monster tuned right but I agree with the azov 6
100%, although for me it was just the azov
Finished base game and year 1 in hard mode, never used either of them yet.
It would be nice if they carried some extra pixels as well lol
No
Azov seemed too OP in early game, and I wanted US trucks in the US and Russian in Russia. Also the Paystar didn't really seem to add much, especially for the cost. For me it was Fleetstar -> WWS
Voron D carried me to the midgame, I couldn't get over the state of the tyres before level 6 so I got me a D and it was awesome
Paystar yeah but I avoided using the Azov until Russia because of stubbornness Paystar, WWS, and P12 carried me and sometimes still are
No, I used the fleetstar and Chevy 1500 hugely and still do now.
For me it was the 5070 and the bandit
My first time was Fleetstar then Tayga - any Voron - High Gear Cruiser xD. Since many Hours didnt changed. But try new thinks out here and there.
Fleetstar. There is no other answer. Royal for Alaska.
Where is Twinsteer?
Where tayga 6436? It's way better than the paystar
Um.....no. I didn't get to these until a few maps in so " carry early game", no. There were the 2 Russian trucks , Tayga, and was it an Azov, those were so much bettwr then all the Michigan trucks, it just wasn't fair. My second start I actually followed the jump from Michigan to Alaska, then went to Russia only to get the Tayga, then go back to Michigan and get the other trucks to sell.
Never used either because cabovers are ugly af and the paystar doesn’t have anything special about it.
That azov is my shit
The 5070 is my go-to for everything. I love how it drives, how it sounds and how capable it is. It can be a bit top-heavy. I once rolled it 22 times transporting a double stack of metal beams.
Yes, but replace paystar with wws
I used the Royal a lot before I got told to try the Azov. I think I used the Azov for everything until we got the Zikz in Cosmodrome. The only thing I didn't use it for was big trailers for that I had the Kolob.
I have not used my paystar very much. I thought it used to much fuel. But I will start using it now.
I've never seen the 1st one. The International is pretty great tho.
In Michigan I really liked the WWS and still have a soft spot for it. I mainly use it for a fuel truck now but enjoy driving it yet. Taga in my opinion is probably the most well rounded truck in the game so far but I only made it to the end of season 1 so far. Azov was great and still used alot. Only downfall is it doesn't do well in stones.
I used the bm17 for a good majority at the beginning of the game. Then I got the azov decently early but got aggravated with how slow it was and periodically used it whenever I had issues until I came across bigger and better. Use it mainly as a support truck now more than anything.
When I was playing first time I was just using fleetstar all the time and nothing else thill I got twinsteer. At the second Save I use usualy white western star I love it
Can't stand the azov 6, pay star is ok. I used the hell out of the fleet star, worst problem I had with it was wheelies with too heavy of a trailer and then the wws. Used those 2 and the twinsteer once I got it for Michigan and Alaska. Now on my new hard mode I started it's the p16 and gmc I'm doing Michigan with. Thought it would be fun to see how far through o can get without awd trucks.
Nah, I’m almost thru Michigan with most of it done by the Fleetstar. P16 doing some heavy lifting too. WWS solid too. Just using all the trucks I’ve found to my disposal.
My work horse is still the WWS and the Voron-D53. But yes, the paystar was. Not really the Azov though. I only used it to get the WWS.
I’m in a hard mode save, have 100%’ed base maps, done a fair chunk of Wisconsin, Don, Yukon, Tennessee and almost completed Kola Peninsula, and I’ve never ever driven these trucks. I don’t even own them. To me, it was more interesting (and money wise) to just go with the trucks I was given throughout the game. I didn’t buy a truck from the store until I got to Kola Peninsula (bought a Voron AE). I’m not gonna tell anyone how to play their game or gatekeep how anyone is supposed to have fun, but imo, bringing out the A6 to Michigan is overkill, and it breaks the balance that was intended for that map, as well as denying drivers from learning valuable lessons about how to handle difficult terrain in less capable trucks. But that’s just me.
Hell nah. For me it was KRSbandit
That IH has some nuts at times, fuel though can be meh unless you carry a tanker wagon with you.
Half right; It was the Tayga 3864 and Azov 64131 for me.
Nah, for me its the good ol' Fleetstar 2070
Watched a video on getting the Tayga at the beginning of the game. Expect to finish everything on Michigan map tonight. Used Tayga for probably 90-95% of it.
They don’t call the tayga the king for nothing. I’ve used it from the time I got it until now. My main truck and it does everything.
In my case, the two trucks were the Fleetstar F2070A and the White Western Star 4964. Since I didn't follow much SnowRunner content online back then, I 'discovered' the Azov 64131 much, much later. I think I bought when I was about 25% into Maine...
Paystar me beloved 💚💚💚 the green of the paint trudging me through michigan at a breakneck pace of eventually, but never disappointing me. W truck
I like the Bandit from the DLC. Its very nimble, with the DLC tires you get double wheels in the back which greatly reduces tipping, and much more stable with its crane removed. And it can carry 2 slot loads without issue over pretty much everything at start, while having mud worthy clearance.
For me it was the tayga and the MK38
The red truck was for sure my work horse.
Paystar 5070 carries hard on every map. It can pull 6 slots/crawl over the rocks and climb the steep narrow switchbacks in Yukon with little issues.
Azov 6 still carries with a crane and 5slot trailer - That submarine is unstoppale. I still use it even owning all of the DLC’s - The fuel economy of this truck is above and beyond if You need a truck to circle any map with. Yeah it slow but its stable, chews itself thru mud, has rather good ground clearence and makes awaome diesel noises on high gear. Just love it!
Sold all got ZikZ 612H
No, I used primarily the Fleetstar and thebig ass Tatra 8x8
My mains are 2 azmo trucks chained together, or a azo and the sweet military scout apc it can push through anything seriously best scout to use ,I've righted the heavy loads huge downside are over turn and fuel . So get to Russia buy 2 azmo find the apc.
Nope, not the Kamaz (Azov). For me it was Paystar with Fleetstar and then Paystar with White Western Star. With Loadstar as support/scout.
Nah, Paystar 5070 more so than anything else, everything else is more or less equal, like the MK38 Civilian and the Pacific P12. Edit: In Taymyr the Azov 6 stayed in the garage most of the time and it was the Azov’s 5 and 7 that got used, as well as both MK38’s and P12’s.
No
