there's 2 versions, HR and HR-401. HR is shot out in BC, 401, here in Ontario.
It's a 'reality' show that's OK to watch. Some BS but the wrecks are real !
The one thing I don't understand is in NOT using say a 'hay elevator' to offload trailers. WHY anyone would slug though 4 feet of snow carrying 1,000s of boxes UP a culvert makes NO sense...
The other BS is when 'stuff' breaks on the rigs or air lines freeze up!Hello ,even I KNOW you should drain air tanks, add air dryers and check stuff BEFORE leaving the shop.
but it's interesting to watch.....

All the reality shows are full of drama, they have to compete with regular drama shows. The reality is these shows are actual taped happenings, then dramatized with extra (creative license) acting. Some of it is so obvious you can see it coming. The shows would be boring or not enough to put a season together otherwise.

We really need some more of those 'reality' shows,,,,,,,,,,,,,,I find that watching paint dry is more informative and educating...and a LOT more entertaining and enjoyable.

I saw trucks stranded in this last cold spell from fuel jelling and I had trouble with fuel jelling in my skid loader and I double treated all my diesel fuel! That being said the reality shows have to manufacture drama or nobody would watch! I used to watch Ice Road Truckers,Axe Men but got tired of the hype! I have enough drama in my own life to watch a reality show!
