Q: on thu 02 dec 2004 221759 gmt budd cochran mr-d150@citlinkspam.net wrote snip ive lived in the intermountain west for the last 35 years. twenty-five of those were spent in and around the salt lake valley. i worked at one of the ski resorts for many years. home was at about 4200 work was close to 9000. many times i had to go up the canyon very early in the morning before the plows had a chance to clear even one lane. often i would be going down the canyon late at night well after the plows had quit for the day. park city im in moab and spent a year in bountiful back in 81. brighton in big cottonwood canyon. first in the ski school then managing a restaurant in the main lodge then down to the blind miner restaurant. in the early 80s i spent a couple of years in the sun valley area. up there you are either wealthy or you work for the wealthy. i was not wealthy so i beat a path back to slc. ive been in boise for about 10 years love it. i can unequivocally state in my situation a bit of extra weight in the bed of my truck made those ascents and descents much easier and safer. no doubt but convince tom of that. there is quite a bit more involved here than just getting stuck or not getting stuck. handling and safety were my main concerns. getting stuck is simply inconvenient sliding off a steep narrow mountain road plummeting to the boulder filled creek bed 50 below could ruin more than just your day... dj or how about as ive seen in some areas a 200-300 foot drop i lost a good friend in that canyon 50 was enough. budd david .

happens. sigh i give up... its not worth my time..... yall can keep trying to convince him but im done. mike whats the matter mike cant back up what you say sigh i dont know why im bothering but here goes..... excerpted from transactions of the society of automotive engineers kosier and mcdonnell 1957 p.730. the difference between the traction available from an engine and that required for steady speed on a given grade may be used for acceleration or acceleration mi/hs=21.9 x surplus traction force/total effective car weight.... the maximum acceleration rate possible is limited by the friction between the driving tires and the road. for a dry roadway the coefficient of friction is about 1.0; but when the roadway is wet this drops to .4 to .6 stonex sae paper 539a 1962. note ladies and gentlemen boys and girls and even you t-bone that there is a direct correlation between traction and effective car weight as illustrated in the above formula. now mr. bone i have posted my bonafides where are yours! mike member sae these laws of physics may be true in our world but are meaningless in the world where t-bone lives. beekeep . 222 294366 41afd6b8.c5915ee3@pgh.net miles wrote j a m wrote if you dont already know how to drive in the snow all four wheel drive will do is get you killed. gee really what a concept! you might be amazed at how many people dont understand that. jam passing suvs in the snow with my 2 wheel drive dakota. .
