If you do hitch hike, naxja members will promptly turn you to the authorities...... No Joke
Apples and oranges, Einstein. Hitching with a snowboard does not inherently hurt 4-wheeling.

That's how I thought it always was, 4x4 = M+S tires = as good as chains.
Eh, I'll throw the chains in the back just in case. Little extra weight over the rear tires can't hurt anyways.

do you have chains for the 35's? Where did ya get em?
I've been waved through twice even though I wasn't carrying any chains (they didn't stop me, just kinda smiled and waved me through), but the one time I was stopped I happened to have a closed bag of chains. Nevermind that they were for 235s and I had 33s on the Jeep. :rof: All they cared about was that I had them. I figured a trip over the pass isn't worth it if they're going to make me put them on...so I'm not spending the $$$ for chains on 37s.
Same here, I think they will usually let most 4 wheel drive vehicles pass without a problem.
Last Winter was the first I had a very capable rig with a winch. They were pleasant when I asked if they needed help. They declined, but thanked me. :us:
Both are fruit, and are tastey. It is illegal and should not be condoned by naxja. I would personly put them in citizens' arrest.Apples and oranges, Einstein. Hitching with a snowboard does not inherently hurt 4-wheeling.

The nice thing about having rigs ready to tow ehh? I pulled off the road to see if a cop wanted me to tug a stalled vehicle in the middle of the road off the side, he said there was a tow truck coming so he wouldn't need me but thanked me. I'm just hoping if I get pulled over he's the one who does it.

the guys on hwy2 are not bad, they drive XJs also so they don't seem to care.Well, I suspect it has to do with the officer at the time, the place and the conditions. In the 1/2 dozen times I have been though there check points I have NEVER been waved through. I have been in a veriaty of vehicles of all shapes and sizes, all with 4x4 NOT AWD. They have never checked the size of the chains.

Im not worried about the snow vs. my deap tread tires too much at all. Im just curious to see what 4wheel drive is like on say Hwy2 covered in snow with my Aussie locker. Doesnt seem that the steering would like me too much.

wow never heard of anything like thatSteven's, Alpental, and Crystal. The big deal is the WSP in this one, they will give ya a ticket if you get caught hitch hiking.
