Well Got the first decent snow this year to take out my 03 in....Aint quite the same as driving around my old gen 3...But I still got around Just fine!

 

man i went to reno, nv and tried to drive up a road that had some snow on it and i couldnt even make it up i was sliding all over and i was in 4wd... it looked like those roads there and i couldnt doo sht.... how do you wheel in that

 

hehe..fyi...thats a 2wd 5spd :D.....open diff...bfg's and growing up in this weather...its easy to drive in...

 

reno ftw

and it was probably icy. i had issues when i lived there lol.

 

Its the driver

 

Love the second picture. I wish we had the snow.

 

kinda what i was thinking

 

Sounds like someone needs to learn how to drive in the snow lol.

 

lol well since i live in so cal im not to worried on learning lol. but whats the trick

yes it is. driven in the snow once and that was the second time. lol

ty it was tooo sick man!!! went to cabelas and sheels bro it was awesome!!!

man nice whats the trick!

 

Put weight in the bed, dont accelerate too quickly, if you start sliding take foot off gas and turn the truck in the direction you want to go, take it easy, especially on ice.

 

Oh and I got a deal on Bridgestone winter duellers so I put them on my old factory rims. What a difference. I put 100 miles on in a blizzard yesterday and the pickup never once felt like it was about to lose it. Never thought winter tires were worth the money, but I am sold now.

Some valid points here, but I still cant believe nobody said what I am about to say. TIRES make a big difference. From what I can recall are you running the crapyear wranglers? Get you some BFG AT's and that will help a lot. Chains are another thing that will help. Especially with some weight in the bed!

 

Get some duratracs. They are the hot $hit.

 

Haha....advice on Traction in Snow......Coming from a Alabama guy that rarely sees snow...from a state that if they get more then a inch they close all the roads lol!...But..he is Right...except the bfg a/t part...their good tires....But theres better out there!...Im just biased...

 

Yea the duratracs seem to do pretty well in the snow from what I have seen so far.

 

man sheels is the ****. apart from summit, that was my second home hahaha
