We went over the Cascade Mountains into western Oregon to find a classic International Scout 2 to bring back to the 406 Garage collection. We knew we would hit a bit of bad weather, but the snow had come down hard overnight and the snowplows were working hard to keep the roads cleared. We made it across just fine in the 4x4 sneaker truck, but chained up on the way back so that we didn't have any accidents

Life protips in this one: always take time to play with a dog (or any animal) and there's no age limit on putting chips on your sandwich!

@codeyshively4097 5 ай бұрын

When we become adults fries on burgers is also a must 🤣

@Cougracer67 2 жыл бұрын

Going over the mountain during a snow storm seems perfectly logical when there's a good chance of snagging a Scout! "He who snoozes loses"!

Thank you for taking us along for another adventure, Casey.

Casey gets an award for the subway sandwich making! He's correct, there's is no other way to make a sandwich. The satisfying crunch of the chips and the facility flavor of the meat and whatever condiments of choice, it's magic.

I used to drive a 18 wheeler out west. I can't count the number of times I have seen 4x4s in the ditch, just because they have 4 wheel drive they thought they could drive like they were on dry pavement.

@RiverRatWA57 2 жыл бұрын

I've put in 22yrs pulling a Reefer OTR and live in the Puget sound area, I know what you mean about the 4x4 mentality, Yup, they can go anywhere alright.... right into the ditch with the rest of the DumbA$$es.......as I drove past them in my RWD pickup......................

@nermalsturf 2 жыл бұрын

@@RiverRatWA57 Same sentiment here... When I was contemplating on which truck to buy for my first vehicle, my Dad's comment guided that decision, "getting 4wd will not only give you 2 more wheels to put your ass in the ditch, it'll give you a helluva lot of extra cost & maintenance if you're not consistently using the extra drive." As I'm not consistently needing that extra umph, my 2wd trucks have served me well over the years.

I put Studded snow tires on our PontiacVibe so my daughter can deliver the Rural Mail. she today, advised the 4x4 Jeep carriers about a steep hill coated an inch of ICE.... the other girl's reply?? "Oh, I have 4 wheel drive, no Problem. " ... ... ... Guess who delivered the whole route in half the time of the Jeep driver? yep, my daughter. Front Wheel Drive with Studded Snow Tires beats a 4x4 with street tires every day.

Have used that type of chain many times. Worked great. Always carried extra bungee cords with me. You are limited to 25mph with them. I do recommend you inspect them regularly as some of the links will open up. A pair of visegrips and you can tighten the links. I picked mine up from Les Schwab Tire Stores.

Love the chips on the sandwich, I’ve yet to do it to a Subway one. You two together crack me up, you remind me so much of my brother and I when we take road trips, what one couldn’t figure out how to find time for a shenanigan or two the other would. Living here in Mid-Michigan just went through our first real snow fall, 4-5” total, lasted about 4 days, temps are back up into the high 40’s and low 50’s…heading for the 60’s all week and a high of 33 on Saturday. Your disclaimer sounds like this….Do as I say, not as I do!
