    I'm hoping this is aimed at 4-wheelers.

    If it is to include 18-wheelers, exactly WHO is going to pick up the tab for insurance, tickets, etc.???

    Cuz I DANG SURE will not allow my husband to climb on top of this trailer,at ANY time, much LESS in ice/snow to clear it!!!!

    I've always been amused how in the big cities the grocery stores get wiped out of milk, bread and toilet paper when people hear a big snow storm is coming. In the future it may get much worse if no trucks will be on the roads and bringing supplies because they are all parked and waiting for the snow to melt!

    If there was only some way to capture all the hot air the politicians put out, then release it into the trailers, that would take care of any ice or snow build up!

    Al gore called and told them not to worry about it. If we can just get through this winter, he is sure it will never snow again. Atleast not south of the Canadian border.

    Maybe we can get a heated roof ?:biggrin_25522:

    I gotta roll a tarp every day so I am up there with a ladder and broom anytime it snows. But, I aint anywhere near as high as a cargo or reefer at 13'6" screw that!

    So climbing up 13'+ on top of a slippery surface isn't a "Safety issue"?????
