    Sounds like an all around win...

    Adrenaline kicked in...the trucks fine...and the wife wants you to get new tires, and of course you're gonna need rims to go with them...

    The jeep on the other hand...that's just a sad day for the taco...

    My thoughts...

    You lost me at the boobs...
    So you were driving in the snow, on a hill, and the ABS kicked in and you slid alot? I havent had this problem so maybe this is a good lessons learned for me. I drive in snow all the time and havent had my ABS kick in badly. When it did it worked great, my problem was with 4x4 and the anti slip kicked in and fucked me up. Sometimes you need the tires to keep spinning, but having to hit the stupid button is a pain in the ass and doesnt always work.
    I'm all confused with this new fangled shit:confused:

    ABS is disabled in 4-Low. You slid because your wheels locked up. Either that or you were distracted by those boobs!

    AT20s are awful in snow. channels are narrow and pack full of snow and become rolling balls of snow.
