Snow Chains???

TrixX · #1 (**permalink**) Jan 18, 05

So I'm moving from Edmonton to Vancouver in a 17ft U-Haul.

The drives a little intense in winter, you think snow chains or no snow chains??? Do you put snow chains on a U-haul???

You do if you plan on going up a logging road or something.

Otherwise only if the weather gets particularly nasty. You should be fine just with the weight of the U-Haul as long as you respect Lady Momentum.

Good call on the move!

I'd get them for dealing with the Rockies and Coquihala hwy..... this time of year those hwys can be ass to drive on.

yeah i see what you're saying. but the roads are kinda clear except for icy patches so snow chains on concrete??? i don't know how that works.

who know though, by next week some storm could have hit and i might be screwed.

Get the new rubber ones they have at Canadian Tire..... safe for driving on concrete if you need to. Still, better to use them only when you need them.

Carry them with you... you can always stop and put them on when things look like they're about to be FUBAR.
