Went out to 'Worster' to pick up a server cage...
The weather had killed a few other attemps but Friday we made it...
Holy Crap must have been 10 different spots where cars and trucks went off the road that morning...
This was on 495 and 290...
Off ramps were closed going to 24 and 44...
Every time we were on a bridge the fast lane narrowed by 3 feet due to the snow bank...
The roads off highway were worse...
3 lanes became 1.5, huge snow banks on every corner...
We brought my trailer because the cage was too big to fit in the bed of the pickup...
Strapped the cage down to the trailer standing up...
Had to keep an eye on all the stupid people driving...
They would swerve to avoid the bridge snow banks and the snow off the tops of cars and TT...
The trip started off with all the gauges on the truck failing...
No fuel, no speedo, nothing...
Checked the fuses but they were all good...
Used the Garmin for the spedo and guessed on the fuel consumption...
They came back after the trip was over...
The truck just did not want to go on that trip and was trying to stay on 'The Cape'...
