he needs chains or mud tires.

my dodge in 2 wheel drive gets through mud just fine because of the mud tires...the limited slip rear end helps a bit too..

Agree.. My truck has been 2wd since 2010 and I never had an issue with getting through mud or snow... Mud tires and a posi do the trick

No and yes.

Inspection and county/city sticker but no emissions testing this far south.

Gotta do the non fouler before I take it in just in case they wanna give me crap about it. Could just reset the battery though, it usually takes 2 days before the CEL comes back on

Edit:

No one has 18mm spark plug non foulers in stock... Jeez...

I should have specified. No emissions testing this far south in Virginia. The Northern Cities/Counties have testing; Fairfax, Alexandria, etc...

Welp just got back from the shop, got the truck inspected (after I did the non fouler trick, finally found some in stock) Got lucky, the inspector didn't see a crack in the windshield (up by the rear view mirror) until he was backing out after the inspection was complete. So we agreed it happened sometime after the inspection this evening

Got to get the county sticker tomorrow and I'll be all set.
