{"replyTo":"","text":"The driver telling you to have more weight on your drives is a imbicile. You want to have more weight on all axles during the winter. You especially want your trl tandems to have the extra weight. Makes them stick better. The less weight you have on them the more likely the tandem is going to skid. If you find yourself with your trl trying to slide around on you, pull your trl brake handle and give it fuel. Do not use your engine brakes during icy travel unless you can do this.","replyToPid":0}
