{"replyTo":"","text":"Propane Heater are good to save from idling if you even can. For sure get a snow cleaner to wipe off snow and ice so u don’t have to use ur hands and it doesn’t fly off while driving! Can really damage a vegans causes wrecks. I always keep airline anti freeze so my brakes don’t lock but I rarely use the trailer brake when stopped for this reason also. Diesel Anti-Gel is handy too if u go a little north it’s steadily below freezing point. Take the grades slow if your not use to driving in the snow and cold rain. Take Those “bridge freeze before road” signs very serious and just coast over them. Stay safe driver!","replyToPid":0}
