    Central Canada like Manitoba? We probably have similar weather then because I'm in Minnesota. Thanks for the advice!

    Yep. Manitoba. Minnesota gets cold, but not as cold or for as long. Still chilly. Why the move north?

    I've tried a lot of different winter boots over the years. Best I ever found was just a good pair of work boots, mink oil and if it was really bad a pair of 5 buckle overshoes. Steel toes can be cold in the winter time, but had a pair of steel toed Redwings that saved my ###, or toe to be more precise when a chainsaw kicked back on me.

    Well I wasn't really looking to move to be honest. I was OTR with Prime, and I had met a driver that knew my current boss and we got to talking and I decided that I wasn't opposed to moving. My (current) boss gave me an offer that sounded better than what I had a Prime, so off I went. I gotta say, its nice being home at night and (mostly) off on the weekends.
