I just drove up to Vermont from CT last night in a snow storm. You can read the thread I wrote about it. It really blew my mind. Took 7 and a half hours to make a trip that normally takes 3 and a half.

When people get too close to me I just throw on my hazards and they back thinking what is this guy doing. One guy was riding my a$$ and so he went to pass me and I gave 'er a little gas and got 'er sideways. Needless to say, he backed off and stayed away lol

IDK about you guys but this is how i get some weight in the back of my pickup. toss a sausage patty in there and wait, when they jump in slam the tailgate shut an vio-la! instant traction!

seriously tho, i just put 8 x 60 lb sand bags = 480 lbs (or 218.2 kg for our neighbors to the north)
