A very, very well maintained one with the proper rear end gearing. You'd probably want one with As far as brand goes, I don't think it really matters--they'll all work. I looked at the Ice Road Truckers website, and it looks like Freightliners and Kenworths are popular. You wouldn't want something like a Volvo or a Freightliner Cascadia--if you needed an engine part, they'd have to fly it in from Seattle because those trucks use different engines. If I was to go to the Ice Road, I'd want something like a longnose Kenworth with a Caterpillar engine mainly because of the parts situation--there are enough of those trucks on the road that you can get parts easily.
