    Tire Chains

    We will drive a good distance to take a route that will avoid the need to chain up. One time last winter we took a more southern route. It added about 100 mi to the run, but saved 4 days. Donner pass was closed and we talked with many truckers that had been shut down for 4 days waiting...

    Tire Chains

    *SIGH* I guess I will have to break down and get a set. ALL that weight and expense for something I will seldom, if ever, use. Wish I could afford the automatic ones, at least I would not have to grovel on the ground in horrible weather to put them on. I have used chain for years on my pick up...

    Tire Chains

    Good luck in the BWCA, good time of year for smallmouth. I agree with nightcreather, I don't think chains should ever be used EXCEPT to get off the road if you get in trouble. I was just wondering what most of you carry out there, if anything. Am I right that D.O.T. does not require them? What...

    Tire Chains

    I need to buy tire chains before winter. I have been reading the laws and now I am REALLY confused. Am I right that in Colorado that all wheels on a single drive axle truck.

    Need a Little Help and Advise please

    Hey LostandFound, The ATeam is right, all the toys in the world will not insure that you can find where you are headed for. One of the hardest things I had to do when selling gps systems was to convince boaters that they still needed to own charts for where they were boating and know how to use...
