What if it Snows?

I engage the power divider often in winter. I frequently travel most of the day with it on if I run on Wyoming ice. This morning I had it engaged most of the 30 miles on I-40 and some of the time on the two lanes and all the time on dirt, sand, and mud.

 

snowing on the panhandle?

 

No worries buddy i'll send some {sunlight} from down under up your way that should thaw things out pretty quick huh?

 

I don't know. I stayed within a 60 mile radius of OKC today. Mixed freezing rain and snow started the mayhem this morning.

 

This is why I'd rather run 10,000 miles of snow than a mile of freezing rain. Snow is manageable with experience; freezing rain is havoc from the sky.

 

Coasting is your friend.

If it gets squirrelly on ice I have found that easing off the throttle and coasting is the best solution. Apply light throttle only as necessary.

When I approach an icy bridge or change in road surface I accelerate slightly, then ease off and coast over the slick section. It's the same principle as trying to run across an ice rink in street shoes. It can be done, but you can't accelerate, stop, or change directions very well once you are on the ice. You get up to speed before you are on the ice and maintain momentum in a straight line as best as possible.

 

How’s my tree doing?
And you shouldn’t rent a car, you should sit there and complain about elogs and how elogs won’t let you take a shower

 

If it's a rental....... thrash it
