    Well 1 things for sure, ya need to make a stop at H/D for a wheelborow to haul all this litter, sand, chains, etc. so when ya do get stuck in the parkin' lot, you can get out. OR you could just drive yer own truck and bring whatcha need with ya. ;)

    one or two 5 gallon pails with covers ought to do it......no wheel barrow.....but then, one could connect it the the "lead trailer" and then have a set of "doubles"...???.....:biggrin_2559:

    like i had said, i didn't even know Uniroyal was still in business.....i had a used car with Uniroyals on it, but i never actually bought them. i liked the tires they had that were "self sealing"....remember those...???

    they were called "Nail-Guard" and are still available....

    sadly, i cannot find the videos on that...yet.....
