    I drape them over all the tires and pull forward or backup to get on them that way I only have to move the truck once. I’ve heard of the board method, but I figured it would involve moving the truck for each chain.

    There will be a key in that bag. Don’t lose it when you cut the bag open and pull everything out. It will be a steel rod shaped like an L. Each bag will have one if someone hasn’t already cut them open. It’s what you use to turn and tighten the cams with. Keep an extra key somewhere in the truck so you will always have one. They can get lost in the snow when you’re in a rush if you get sidetracked.

    You use a board cut in half , if you are really prepared you'll have one for the trailer .

    Cool, I'll watch some videos on YouTube on how to do them. Although I'll probably not use them, if I see that it's snowing a lot, I'll just park the truck lol.

    Yep I’ve had to chain up to more than once to get out of a spot, it’s not fun but it beats a tow bill at times.

    You’ll be ok. I can’t speak for the other guys (or gals) here, but I’ll be here if you need some advice or help with things.
