Nasty North Carolina Weather! Live around the farm in the snow!

What happens here

After driving past hay bales, the farmer attempts to do 'donuts' in the deep snow with his 4-wheel drive truck. He struggles to get the truck to slide, noting that the 4-wheel drive provides too much traction. He switches to 2-wheel drive to try again. During the attempt, a loud squeak is heard, indicating a broken power steering belt. He gets out of the truck to inspect the engine compartment but doesn't immediately identify the problem.

Goal: Perform snow donuts for fun, leading to an unexpected vehicle breakdown.
