    Your OPINION is just that, opinion. Not fact. You are quoting others and that does not justify your beliefs as fact. To many good drivers on EO with ACTUAL experience say otherwise. Oh did I mention that this truck has ATD. Yep, it does. Now our old truck didnt have ATD we used chains. In five...

    Waitin' for the snow!

    Ahhh, gotcha. I see where you are coming from. Its not the speed you travel BUT the percentage of difference in relation to the vehicles around you. Why didnt I see this before. So, if I use you logic (sic) I am safer traveling 110 with other vehicles going 125 cause that would only be an...

    On the legal side yes WSDOT would be best to get the answer from. I guess if what you write isnt your philosophy, my bad. Oh, FYI: phi·los·o·phy  noun, plural phi·los·o·phies the rational investigation of the truths and principles of being, knowledge, or conduct.

    Oh, so you are saying some vehicles traveling at 70 vs others at 55 is safer than vehicles traveling 30 and 15. I cant wait for this response.

    Curious. ONSPOT is D.O.T. approved in all states, including the mountainous chain control areas of Colorado and California. OnSpot - The Automatic Tire Chain Why would ONSPOT lie about this. Somebody better tell them paullud says they are not legal in every state. He knows.

    Waitin' for the snow!

    Did I ever mention that we have automatic chains on our truck ( I know I have ). Well, I got to tell ya, when I slow down like I am pulling over to a chain up area, when I get to 20 or 25mph and push the button, the chains deploy a lot faster than any truck that has to continue to a dead stop to...

    T1000 maybe 3rd time is the charm

    We had just pulled out of our drive after taking off the Labor Day weekend. We had a nice load backed up with pre-d that was even nicer. We didnt get three miles from the house and the "CHK TRANS and ABS" idiot lights came on. We shut down and sat a while twice and the codes came back. We were...

    T1000 maybe 3rd time is the charm

    Okay, I am up for this. Let me start off first by discrediting your whole post. Your truck was NEVER the subject of any thread I have written. I see your comprehensions skills are tarnished as well. This thread chronicles the experiences of the Bolt/ T1000 I am driving. That is very clear...

    T1000 maybe 3rd time is the charm

    Thanx cheri, While our 5 months in the new Bolt T1000 has been ragged at best, the frustration level is high because of the previous 6 months in the old truck where we were plagued with problems that shut us down for an average of 12 days a month. We were soooooooo looking forward to getting in...

    T1000 maybe 3rd time is the charm

    Wow, you are a real trip. The only comments about the other truck in this thread are as follows: That is better than the BRAND NEW, I mean, I MEAN, BRAND NEW unit just drove in from Ft Wayne, that was parked next to me during testing. They were told their T1000 equipped truck failed the two day...
