F350 DRW with AF1150, 3 peak mountain tires.
I have carried them for years since sometimes even 4 wheel drive vehicles are required to have traction devices onboard and they are easy to carry. I have used them once.
We were in the California mountains heading to a Harvest Host. Blizzard had closed the highway just beyond our campsite. Drove down a long downward sloping twisty driveway through a foot of wet fresh snow to the farm. During the day the weather warmed up with fresh snow. That night temperatures plunged.
In the morning I went out to the driveway to check it out. Covered in ice under the snow. I couldn’t even walk on it. Put the Auto Socks on (very easy) the outer rear tires, truck into 4 wheel drive low, and just motored out of there like there was nothing there. Extremely impressed. Told my wife we should go back down and see how well we could get out without them but she wasn’t having any of that.
i have since bought another pair in case I’m really in trouble. I highly recommend them.
