Here's a few pics of my adventure in Memphis.

#1 - Notice the ice is almost to the top of the curbs!

Hey Klaus,

The tread looks pretty good on those tires. Is that still the first set? How many miles did you get on your tires? I have 23,000 and they don't look that good.

Here's the driveway we backed out of. As Drty said, it was an adventure just to get in the truck, let alone drive!

Note the tire tracks really didn't sink in as there was very little snow. It was almost all ice.

Rifle - I only have 12K miles on my truck. It is not a daily driver.

I glanced at pic #2 and it looked like your fender and hood was crunched up. The reflection from the building makes it look bent up or something.

Klaus, you could do what some of the rednecks around here will do to their 2 wheel drive pickups when we get ice. They screw short sheet metal screws in to the lugs on their trucks. I heard some talk about it once and asked if they did front and back and the response was "no, I don't need no 4 wheel drive." I then asked if they needed any steering.

Some people just shouldn't be allowed to breed.

Your very acurate with your screw in the tire story.
Living near Me You know how few times we get ice in a series of years much less in how many times we get ice in 1 year.
Well anyway before I retired from farming in 1998 I had a hired hand that I told to put 1/4" screws in farm truck tires as he had decided to cut the wheel chains up a year or so ago for a repair project. So I told him screws would at least let us get to town for parts. After about an hour I walk out to the shop and He is letting it down off jacks and open shop moving truck outside. I look at tires and I had told him how many screws and a pattern I wanted. He looks at me and says ready to go boss. I replied well I guess we can use a tractor to push truck to town because it will steer great. He looks at me funny and I asked him how many screws he put in front tires that he must have put the total # of screws in front because there were none in the back tires, He said well He figured it would be easy to get er to roll but harder to get er to steer and stop. Screws in tires when in a bind work great if you can get somebody that can take total number of screws divide by 4 and spread them evenly on 4 tires. A mind is a terrible thing to waste. LOL

Those tires looks brand new! That's a neat trick!

Glad you had a safe trip Klaus.

P.S. Is that a steel grate on the front door? What's that for? Security? I'm Canadian so I don't know.

its impossible for an H2 hood to be crunched seeing how its a composite

I guess the illusion of it looking wrecked doesn't appear on your screen. Sorry you didn't understand the comment.
