    I've never messed with a tire chain. I've been driving truck since I was 21.

    Chain laws are why northern truck stops are full of southern drivers in wintertime.

    they get you moving on slick surfaces (ice/snow/hail/sleet). they get you up and down the steep grades, they hekp you slow down and stop. they help keep you moving in the snow.

    honeys? or you mean the lot lizards at the truck stop you currently inhabit cause you dont feel like putting out the effort to chain?

    just using my deductive reasoning and logic skills here, but if ya aint willing to get out and chain, I doubt you're willing to get out and a chase a piece of tail. ;)

    btw...j/k. all in good natured fun. :D

    Well, I'm currently inhabiting a truck stop in Ga, but i may have to hang iron to get in the truck wash. Hangin iron ain't near as entertaining as chasin honeys, but it is what it is! LOL. I can be kinda lazy, but something's are worth the effort.
