I guess it would, if it’s paying the bills. But to be honest with you, that was winter of 16-17. I chained more that winter, than I had the previous 10 combined. Run a lot of backroads too.

And one gig required chaining per contract. The freight had to go! I dealt with that one for 2 weeks straight.

Saw a LOT of #### those 2 weeks. A lot of drivers were tired of driving and parked their trucks in ditches, sides of mountains, and a couple parked them upside down. Strange bunch there.

Ice, what ice?

This is my 5th year of driving and I still don't know how to install those chains.
Don't even know if I have any...

Castaic/Valencia was open yesterday. Everything else was closed up the 5 and 97 to the Dalles for me. I was a bit surprised by that.

It's revenue generating season. Gotta pay for all those Union bonus' and Christmas gifts somehow. No better place than to squeeze your local cash cow Trucker.
