I watched this show on the History Channel and decided that I would like to have a copy of it so I could watch it again.
The show follows several truckers who haul freight in Alaska. They mainly follow the Dalton Highway from Fairbanks to Prudhoe Bay, Alaska. The show is primarily concerned with trips taken during the winter season when the roadway freezes over. Sometimes, freight is hauled over frozen lakes and rivers, and there is danger of the trucks falling through the ice.
The worst thing about watching the show on the air is that just at a very suspenseful moment, the viewer is abruptly thrust into a commercial. Consequently, the best thing about the video disks is the absence of commercials.
At the time of this writing, there are four seasons of "Ice Road Truckers," of which this is the third. Season four is currently being shown on The History Channel. If you are a fan of the show, I recommend this collection.

I'm hooked, I'm a trucker and I watch these all the time. I have made some changes in my own driving decisions since watching those who work hard and are professional. Finding slackers and trouble makers are a dime a dozen. Its all about getting the job done, Hugh and his ol friend get it done. Its tuff work and he is a tuff worker. Know many aspects of your job and you will be a valuble asset to your employer.
Don't complain do the job, when your the best of the best then you can talk smack to others. Hugh has his act together.
Ice road truckers is a video that anyone who has a place in their heart for big rigs, big hauls and edge of your seat excitment needs to see this. Its awesome!

This is a great show that truly shows the life and adventures of these men and women. You always here about the ice roads now this lets you strap in and see what its all about. The hard work the fear the heart pumping adrenaline. Truly a must have for any semi lover and driver or anyone who has ever wondered about whats up north and who lives there.

Ice Road truckers 3 has a new location,some new truckers,a lot of the same problems all in Blue Ray,so it looks better than ever.The new location is Alaska and it is some really tough roads to drive on,but Alex is back from his health problems from sesason 2,it's good to hear that crazy laugh of his.Hugh the Polar Bear is back too so him and Alex can continue the dash for the cash.A new trucker is Lisa who noy only a good trucker she is good looking to boot,so that should keep guys watching,Jack is a new trucker a pro on the ice roads and some other new truckers,if you like seasons 1 and 2 you will like this one too.

Season three is more about trucking, less about childish drivers and their antics when NOT in the cab (like season two). This season IRT went to Alaska's tundra, river and sea ice roads with more scenery and way more treacherous weather conditions. There are no roller coaster roads or avalanches to worry about on Canada's ice roads. I found season three to be very interesting and extremely entertaining.

Excellent show. I missed much of the episodes on TV and was so excited to see it available on line.

If the first episode is any indication, Ice Road Truckers Season 3 will be the best one yet. I think what sets this one apart from seasons 1 and 2 is the Haul Road leading up to the ice road. I've been on the haul road up to Coldfoot and this brings back great memories. If you like extreme weather, trucking, incredible scenery or even just learning about Prudhoe Bay, I'm sure you'll enjoy this one. Both Hugh and Alex are back once again (even though they didn't drive in the first episode). I hear season 4 is underway on the Haul Road (Dalton Highway) once again. I hope that's true because I can't wait for season 4 and I just started season 3. Enjoy!

I may have never driven a truck, but I was mesmerized by the first two seasons of this series (don't know how these guys do it!) and I'm looking forward to Season 3 being set in Alaska. Like the previous series' DVD releases, I'm betting there will be some great bonus features!
