Lock your Hubs Mario
« on: Jan 22, 2019, 11:19 AM »
A weekend of stuck trucks was immortalized with a nickname. I could not figure out
how my F150 with highway tires was getting through but the F250 diesel with
great snow treads kept getting stuck. I asked if he was in 4H, 4L, etc.
We spent cumulatively 2 hours shoveling, pushing etc
this guy out only to find out his F250 needed to manually lock the hubs.
&#@$#@#$%$#@ Uggh

Any 250 owner that doesn't know how his axle works should probably stay on pavement.

I've seen that before too. I can see forgetting to lock them in, but after a minute you'd have to realize you weren't in 4x4...

Why would the NEK kill you? Why does this guy even have a big pickup if he doesn’t know younhavr to lock hubs. More money than brains.

Hes obviously one of them.

June (fly in walleye), I have no issues. Yep, added a lot of work to an already challenging weekend
but a he has a nickname now...
