I practiced driving in the parking lot just to see how the MH would handle and stop in the snow, it actually did well. My wife was nervous the whole way back. The major highways were clear and the snow on the trees was beautiful, saw 5 bald eagles, several coyotes and foxes and herds of deer sometimes 30 or 40 at a time out in the fields. The temps were extremely cold so we stayed in motels each night. Had to block the front grill with cardboard to get the engine to come up to temperature. The old 454 started each morning even in 4 degree weather. The only other problem was a vibration in the seat after 60 mph. I was jacking the rear tires off the ground to check for out of roundness when the rear hose let loose. Other than that we made it back OK. After driving 2000 miles through cold and a few snow showers I would no longer be worried about winter travel but my wife would.
Hey Gary a buddie of mine worked HERE for years before moving to NC. They are in Bridgeport. Not sure if they can help any.
I take it you are home? How was the trip back?
