I though about chains but in all honesty i really don't want to be out driving around during a snow storm anyways just because i don't want to get hit by someone else.
Just for the heck of it PM me the info on them and what your looking for for them. Nick

I saw some "spider" chain type things before that were pretty cool. I have been in some pretty bad snow before, and I have never had to put chains on(knock on wood). It is all about knowing how to keep from getting stuck. I have gotten close though. Both of my trucks are 2wd by the way. I once drove the Donner Pass(between Reno and Sacramento) in a Geo Metro with no chains in about 1 foot of snow. It was a long trip though. I should have had chains and I am pretty lucky I made it though. I just couldn't find any for my 12" rims.
 Where is a good place to go snowboarding around here without going all the way up to the Dells?

 Are the 42"s in good shape? Which Super Swamper are they? What size rim? I have 39.5 Super Swamper IROKs right now, but have room for 42s, no problem.

Nick, dunlop winter tires are your best friend. Trust me, when i had the cobra i put some of those on for winter and it made a huge difference, never actually got stuck in it. The summer tires, well thats a different story..........

The storm hit the chicago are just after midnight starting with a mix of sleet and freexing rain, then switching over to just freezing rain.
Well i get up this morning and look outside to see that everything has a glaze to it and say ahh s**t loud enough to wake up my wife and make the dog bark. I go outside to bring the garbage out and slip and fall twice. Once down the driveway, and once back up. Its okay though my back and head took the majority of the blow. There was about an 1/8 an inch of ice on everything. So be very careful this morning. The main roads are questonable at best, so take it easy. I think we are stuck in the section/path of the storm that will only recieve freezing rain all day. I could be wrong and i have yet to look at the radar since late last night. As for my car and snow tires. Screw it. I know what my car can and cannot go through safely when it comes to snow accumulation, so i pick and choose my battles. I appreciate the help though.

There was a nice layer of ice on my windshield this morning when I woke up to go to work... the roads weren't too bad, and I am actually glad that I had to be at work before rush hour today...

I ran out of "regular" ice melt salt and threw down about 1/2 bag of dow flake... that hurt, but not as much as taking a spill on the driveway does. I wiped out a couple of days ago and don't want to do it again this year if I can avoid it.
When I run out of Dow Flake, I guess I'll have no choice but to break out the Southdown. I'm not sure which is going to be harder to replace! |
