Cable tire chains and their box
When you open up that box for the first time and see the chains in
their neatly-coiled simplicity, drink it in and enjoy it because that's the last time you'll see them in that state. |

When you open up that box of diapers and see their pristine cleanliness, enjoy it, because you'll soil them soon enough. Got any comment on your buddy Ted Waldron claiming the cops are monitoring this newsgroup? Or on how he, like you, are so incredibly and transparently dishonest you can't even provide the name of the SPD officer you lied to? Or how your buddy Bob Thompson was just exposed again as a pathetic liar? Of course not. Contact info? Happy to discuss all of this with SPD. How humiliating for you. Almost as humiliating as the EMERGENCY SOCCER GAME!!!! PS: My chains have never been out of the box. Still bungee corded in the engine compartment. Never even opened the box. |

Makes one wonder hwat they are trying to accomplish. Posing for outsiders? |

I bought them (the exact brand and size I was thinking about buying NEW) at a yard sale for $2. Two notes: 1) try them on before you need them, check the fit, and make any adjustments. 2) around here if anyone wants cable chains (unlikely) they just scan the road and pick them up - there's one every mile all winter long. things apparently fall off easily. |

That's why you should drive a mile or two, then snug them up. |

I did that of course, but that was when I bought them a couple of years ago :/ When I actually needed to use them for the first time this winter it had all gone from my ancient memory so the first one took a while and I even had to RTFM ! Once I'd done the first one the other was easier and went on in seconds. These are easy-on chains that you can fit without driving the car over them. They are self-tensioning and worked brilliantly, but I only needed to use them for about 100yds to get out of a steep drive, in Cornwall of all places, where it never snows. Bloody global warming... |
