    I really like side jobs — especially when Benjamin’s are involved — just can’t line up enough to stay busy.

    We're talking tucker here. I've followed tucker for years, and tucker firmly believes in the needs of people, not wants.

    Therefore the question still stands.
     
    Cattleman84, tramm01 and tucker Thank this.

    That's the hardest part, getting them linked behind. If it's dark you are unlucky to have to do it with a flashlight in your mouth fighting with the links. It's all muddy and snowy and your gloves are getting wet and you are slowly losing motor control in your fingers due to the cold. So you feel a bit rushed to get it done before you can't feel your fingers and essentially become useless, but rushing it can also cause problems.

    I will chain if necessary to get to where I am going, but it's not a highlight of my day for sure. lol

    I thank Almighty God I did all the crazy, galactically insane things I did when I was young, dumb, and full of ###, and had the unlimited strength and energy to enjoy them.

    I have accomplished another miracle of modern truck driving.

    Pulled my brakes at this Love's with 6 minutes left.

    If anyone is in the area then stop by for one flavored ice tube.
