[QUOTE="KarlVP, post: 1396853, member: 16136"] Ask crashypoo about last year and not having chains. He almost ended up in a very bad way. And he was barely doing 5mph on the ice. His truck just wouldn't stop. If he had chains on his tires, this would have been a different situation on the ice. Also, when taking chains off, don't be this guy. On the side of the road, taking the chains off while the plow waited patiently to remove the snow.

I have chains for all 4 corners. :awesomework: Having a dually just sucks ass in the snow. The inner rear tire follows the front tire. The outer tire has to plow its own way. Plus having more surface area with two tires tends to "float" you on the ice and snow for less traction. [/QUOTE]
