I got 2 3 railers that I will never use. If it's that bad to require 3 railers I'll park it.
I have 6 singles for 22.5" tires and 6 singles for the smaller tires on our 3 and 4 axle trailers. Already went through a bunch of snow coming back from bend,or a couple days ago... IT'S COMING!!!

Allan,Trygg 2000, very nice winter chain! WARNING, High volume casings, i.e. bridgestone 775, 774, WILL not accept "new" chains, too small. USED chains will fit, new chains, new tires, need extra links. Try your chains for fit, before you leave town! Trust me, I know.

well I am in wyoming on the 80 again heading to denver, guess what, yup its snowing and I made it over all 3 mountain passes before they close the road, yeehaw, heard on the CB they closed these roads 3 days ago so I better find a new route to denver, wyoming so far to date has had snow fall in every month of the year for years, it might not stick around but I think the lowest part of the 80 is about 6000 feet, my friend was up on the 90 just north of me and said he was dry with clear skys... I hate the 80 anymore...

quite a few states technically get snowfall every month of the year, go up about 10k+ and theirs always some around.
80 aint as bad as 25, they`ll shut that down and lock you and your truck between 40 miles of no exits :roll: |
