...and some people laugh because I run tire chains 100% of the time on my plow trucks on a long private road and off-road acreage that has to be kept open .. 50% of the time I have to be into places where the chains sure do their job .. Funny how I am the one they call whenever they get their plow hung up high in a bank or the whole side of their vehicle stuffed into a roadside snowbank.. On a different note, one of my M818's had the honor of recovering someones large farm tractor/loader that went thru pond ice while skidding logs, deep enough where the engine sucked water , all during a 3ft snowstorm of all things.. They called the only commercial rotator-wrecker in the county only to find out it wouldn't go off-road nor did it have enough line to reach it.. It would be years until I obtained a M62, ,, thus tag, the M818 was it.. And yes, I grabbed the one that had a heater.And they tried to blame me for them getting stuck saying I was too close on the other side. No numb nuts you tried to plow a drift without AWD and no chains, you didn’t plow it for 4 days and let it build up as high as it is and you didn’t give it any speed.
Thanks,To the Rescue!!
Good work, Weldman!
