Definitely lol, I put 400lbs of sand bags in the bed, but it still wasn't enough. Quote:

Took the truck out hunting yesterday with my dad, this was actually the first time my dad had ever came along for a ride in the truck. With another dump of snow yesterday morning there is now over a foot on the ground! So before going out I filled the bed up width wet packed down snow, so there is probably around 7-800 lbs in the back now, made it grip much better. |

Re: Nik's 62 build
And once I was on the forest service road, I put on some cable chains.

Re: Nik's 62 build
It makes my day every time I see that you're driving your truck. No matter the weather you are on the road. Way to go!

Parked it on the side of the road in some deep powder and it had no problems getting out. Unfortunately the cable chains were just too light duty and I kept breaking links. But this morning I picked up a proper set of chains off my local classifieds.

Re: Nik's 62 build
The hard work and diligence really pays off, doesn't it? Looks like we got our 62's back on the road at about the same time.
Good job and congratulations!

Cool picture my friend took while I was having some fun sliding the truck around in a snowy parking lot
