    Here's one for all you cabover fans. It might perfect to run the rail yards in Chicago or the ports in Jersey

    I drove those trucks over in Iraq, I could have sworn all of those trucks were turned over to the GOI (Government of Iraq). Where we're you taking this to ? Maybe KBR wants it down in their musuem in Houston.

    I use as many chains as will make me feel secure. They dont call them suicide rolls for nothing.

    The only thing I do different is that I dont spread my chains out that much... forward and aft. I dont see anything wrong with yours. I am always afraid someone will cut me off or the surprise red light with traffic already coming through and I need to jamb on the brakes. I want to know that sucker will stay.

    Better to have and not need, than to need and not have.

    Good ridance to those trucks, especially those big wheeled Volvo's, they can't turn worth nothing. Be safe.
