mt ford , was looking at your pics , especially the one trying to back down the hill-----was this being done when you had just purchased the truck or what------Surely that road isn't the way you have to go home everyday after work----being that far north , your snow-free period must not be longer than about 4 months or-less , i would thimk!!!How many miles north of the us border do you live---and what do you do for aliving---(I'm nosey)---The pics of your "barn" and the scene around your home really looks pretty---lots of tree's and scenery---and plenty of mountains and bears i assume---should be grizzlies that far north and if they are around do they present a problem in some form or fashion , sorry about all the questions ---fd

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 01-Jul-02 AT 03:58 PM (EST)]Well my truck was first owned by my dad and he had it for 20 years, and i bought it from him in 1999. me and some friends skipped school for the day and went 4x4 up the mountain. I broke down at about 2500' or so. No that isnt a road i have to travel to get home, its fun to play on. I'm on the BC coast. We have snow about 4-5 months. It usually comes and goes. Doesnt just pile up. But in the mountains we get a ton of it. With chains on i can make it through four plus feet of snow. Most of that due to my trucks weight, 7800 lbs. But its all good. I work in a body shops and fix friends trucks on the weekend, if im not wheeling. We got it all up in Canada, bears, which dont cause a problem, mud, snow and a ton of logging roads, nice scenery and good Ford trucks.
