    All the more is the reason why there are tire chain laws. Got caught in a snow storm on Snoqualmie pass one winter had to chain up the drive tires 1 steering tire and 1 axle on the trailer. As much as I always hatted to have to chain up it was better than having to wait all night or longer with a storm just getting worst by the minute.
    Never try to tell me it can't be done
