[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by Limitedclear In Upstate NY we don't need no stinking chains!! LC [/quote] Perhaps because Pennsy used up all the Hills that God had in supply when he created this world he he. =) In a winter storm one afternoon to the East of Allentown, I found myself confronted by the sight of the 3 mile long westbound downgrade shining with ice that was so.... slippery smooth all the way down. This was with a empty flatbed and a Mack CH model rig daycab. I made it down but thank god I was a young man as the stress level was very high that day. I think I took 10 years off my life on that hill that icy day. As bad as that one was I was to see even worse ice in the deep south near the end of the 90's. The kind that renders a foot of beach sand irrevelant. (They used to sand bridges to give you a chance to cross down there in the south.) The previous night I slept at a reciever on top of a hill. The wind would blow very hard and you can feel and see the entire rig shift a inch or so to the side with every gust. I figured if I woke up the next morning in the ditch that is ok because I arrived at the customer on time with very valuable freight that they cannot work without. Be safe and good luck! See you all on the flip side.
