Ok,I did not feel like going thru all 5 pages of this thread so if I mention anything that has been repeated,well,you just get to read it again.:lol: One good way to get unstuck from a frozen parking lot is to have LOTS of water and pour it all around the tires and lock the differentials.One good way to see if the roads are icy is to see if there is ice on the side of your mirrors or look at other vehicles passing you and see if they are spraying water from their tires. IF they are spraying water than the roads are mostly wet but remember that roads can ice up quickly if temps are already below freezing. Freezing point is 32 degrees farenheit. If there is a truck passing you on the left DO NOT speed up and match your speed with the truck in the lane next you. This is not only rude but if the left lane is icy than you run the risk of the truck sliding and running or jacknifing right into you. I have seen this happen and the Fedex,Old dorkinion,and the UPS goofballs seem to be experts at it. Don't drive faster than you feel comfortable however don't drive so slow as to be a hazard and force most of the traffic to pass you. One way to minimize accidents is to reduce passing and lane-changing. If you don't feel comfortable driving the average speed of traffic than parking it until conditions improve is a better idea.Oh,and one more off-topic advice from your gassy hungarian neighbor,if you need to fart badly just let it releaze and do not be embarrased,OK? This iz how I cure my fart problem becauze my medical insurance doesn't cover me to see doctor. I just breathe eazy and let it ripp hungarian style. :lol::boogey:
