DA..that's snow?.. my dandruff is thicker.. !
For here thats snow. We don't get snow often so when it does happen its a big deal. The biggest problem we have here unlike places further north we don't get just snow. We get snow AND ice. The ice is where the problem really is. Driving on snow isn't so bad. Driving on ice without studded tires or chains is really dangerous. I have chains for the F350 but not for the M1081. The only reason I have chains is because I spent a couple of years in the north west working on a project. We were required to carry chains in the winter.
TO address your previous question - In my opinion the biggest issue with ice in the air system is making sure the air dryer is working properly. I know my dryer is WAY overdue for a service. Its on my list to do but I've not gotten around to it yet. Driving the truck more also keeps everything purged out and happier.
After the first drive around I took the air compressor and topped up the one tire that was a little low. I think driving it around warmed everything enough that I could see the CTIS system was adding some air to the tire along with the air compressor I was using. Once I got the pressure pretty close the controller was happy again. On my second drive to dump the trash, I saw plenty of signs of people going into ditches. There were several places I could feel the truck spin a little going up hills. I hit the MODE button on the transmission and didn't feel any more slippage.
Anyway, the truck is more stable than the F350 on tires. The F350 would be the weapon of choice if I had any critical work to do since I have a set of chains for it. The snow here is melting rapidly. A lot of the roads should be in pretty good shape by late afternoon.
