Snow towing experience

It does well. It isnt finished yet. So, I havent weighed and checked mpg yet. Going up decent hills, I can maintain 55-60. When all is said and done, I will probably keep mph to 55.
There are a bunch of pics ↓. Does well in rain, havent hit ice. Multiple builds in thread.

Chain up a braking axle on the trailer if you are running chains on the truck.

 

I go out regularly here in the PNW winter tires are definitely a must.

 

Ive never used chains, only towed 3-4k behind the taco. 4wd whenever it's slick, lots of extra stopping room, and slower than you think you should be going.

I ran treadwrights on my Tacoma, I was really impressed with then on snow/ice. They were noisy on dry pavement, but I built based on off roading so it was a decent tradeoff

 

How do you like that Cricket for winter camping?

 

Its great, 19,000 BTU forced air keeps things toasty even on the coldest nights. The tires are junk but they are easily replaced since they are a standard size.
