Anyone watching this series on the History Channel? Basically,for 10 weeks a year,a huge water area in the Northwest Territories province in Canada freezes over These truck drivers haul supplies to the diamond mines You could not pay me enough to do that job Driving truck down here in the states can be bad enough


The final show is on tomorrow night,Sunday,at 10pm east However,they will be showing the first 9 shows starting at 1pm east tomorrow,Sunday August 19

It`s actually a very interesting and informative show. Like "The Deadliest Catch", the show provides a glimpse into the lives of these people and the hardships and trials they endure on a day to day basis. This is not a job to be entered into lightly! Although I am anxious for the season finale,I am sad that it is ending already. I really enjoyed this show!:couch:

They can make a one years wages in eight to ten weeks It depends upon how many loads each driver does and how much each load pays Usually $50,000 Canadian Sometimes more Sometimes less

I watched a little bit of it, but was never really hooked on it.
What I don't get is what on earth is that doing on the history channel?

Are you being sarcastic, or serious?

Quite serious. Those two networks, along with National Geographic, are big competitors. I work for one of them, so I know these things ;)

Those truckers aren't pulling in much crab......

No, but they're blue collar guys risking their lives to make big money during a short season so the rest of us can consume.

I like both shows but think I prefer Ice Road Truckers.

Nothing beats Dirty Jobs on The Discovery Channel though!

You know, Bella. Under any other circumstance I'd say you could take me out. But I'm sorry, honey, he's all MINE. And if I have to knock you out of the way to do it, then I'll just have to. SNAP!
