    That looks like the one I have. They work for weight distribution but no sway control built in. I don't use any sway control on mine, the truck handles the little trailer just fine on it's own. If/when I get a bigger trailer, I'll get one of the new units with sway built in. Some of the high end models have made a science out of it. Neat that they've figured it all out but I can't see paying $2,000 for a hitch.
    Yeah... but then I'd have to live in RI...

    If you had snow already why would you plow before it was supposed to switch to ice? If I know it's going to switch to ice I'll leave the snow on the ground, so I can get underneath the ice layer with the plow and clean it out completely. If I plow first I end up coming out the next morning to a skating rink :laugh:

    I did have that thought as I went out to plow, and I have to say I completely ignored it :lalala: I went ahead with my original plan of plowing once this afternoon, and again in the morning. Will I regret it tomorrow when I have to load the snowblower in the truck to go clean up the business? Maybe :pout:

    That was me seven years ago today. Ended up on the ground with a broken fibula, and broken lateral and medial malleolus bones.

    I shuffle stepped everywhere even tho there was no ice to speak of.

    Drive home wasn't too bad. There was a bit of snow on the roads, some slush, and a bit of ice, but nothing crazy.

    Main road were mainly just wet. There was a bit of snow & ice on the front windshield when I got out of work, but it "broke" right off. Was drizzling/raining by the time I headed home. I think that's all it's doing outside right now too.

    I'd love to get some more sneakers. My issue is that I get ones that I really like and I've spent too much money on, so they sit in a box and only get pulled out on special occasions. I've got a solid 4 pairs like that right now. My day to day shoes are probably between 2-8 years old.

    That reminds me, I need a new pair of steel toed boots for work. I get reimbursed up to $150, once a year.

    Anyone go on the rants and raves section of craigslist ever? I know a lot of you guys follow the "for sale" thread. The people on it are crazy as hell, but it's pretty entertaining if you are just :pccoffee:
