Had to get pulled out by a dually....

.....and to make matters even worse it was a Chevy. I drove my truck into about a foot and a half of snow with a generator on behind. I knew it was risky with racing slicks on for tires but figured if I got stuck I would just unhook the generator and carry on .... wrong. Oh well I called upon my nephew and it made his day.

    You still haven't got new tires Terry? Boy you really live on the edge buddy.
    Foot and a half already? Guess I better get the blower hitched up today :W

    The dually had relatively new tires but they were not very aggresive in design. He had a little trouble getting as far as I did. Anyway with the help of a good tow strap it took several good jerks and I was on my way.
  • Tires make a world of difference. Never something to cheap out and stretch their usage on.

  • Dude, there's a reason that racing slicks are not street legal. They are as worthless in the rain as they are on snow.
