Folks:
I've completed my winter "mod's":
Two (2) ten (10) gallon rubbermaid tote bins w/sand&salt mixture
AND: a 2x4 construction 'rack' to hold 'em in place. I have
digital pix but I won't be able to send 'em in to JonS until
monday 11jan99 as I have drill in the Berkshires.
The rack looks like this: (4:2x4's)
| |
|--------------|
Front of bed | | Rear of bed
| |
|--------------|

I made the 2x4's the go left to right (in pic above)
just long enough to allow for the bins to rest between
the end 2x4 and tailgate. The weight stay put, I don't
have to worry about the sand slamming into the front of
bed and I have dry sand/salt if I get stuck on ice.
If anyone is interested I'll get the digital pix up somewhere
if not, well, electrons are recyclable.

OBTW: Boston weather: Snow 2-4" tonight - I'm driving from Boston to
the berkshires for Mass Army National Guard drill on Saturday. I'll
let you know how the traction has improved! (Berkshires will prolly get
8 inches of snow!)
