i may need chains for the car this year Its those honda drivers that need chains.
My two cents, lots of acorns supposedly = lots of snow
Good tires are the best bet in my opinion, chains can easily fall off and take out brake lines / cv booots, or quite possibly worse. If you have no choice but to use chains DONT go faster than recomended,and make sure tensioner bungees are tight. Alot of people around Colorado sipe or stud their tires depending on where youre at studs may be illegal though. In the six years I drove over Lizard Head pass My best luck was with a really good set of snow tires(no sipe/stud) and snow concious driving,when your only two options are a sheer drop to the river or rock walls you learn to drive very carefully in adverse conditions.
just my 2 cents on chains

I noticed the other day that the wasps and bees have built their nests high this year which usually means deep snow
Hope it stays below 12 feet cause it gets hard to shovel once its that deep.

We have been noticing around here a big number of wasps building their homes IN THE GROUND. You really gotta watch what you are doing sometimes.
I still think we are going to get a **** load of snow this year.
