[QUOTE="HFS, post: 3725287, member: 8862"] Not intending to poop on your thread but just to add about preparedness. In stories from my family, the old folks KNEW how much trouble traveling was in bad weather (they didn't have 4 wheel drive or a motorcycle with a car tire on it, LOL) and avoided it if possible. They didn't wait until there was a few inches of ice and snow, still coming down and suddenly announce "I just HAVE to go to Walmart!" Not familiar with the Ford Model T but I had one ancestor who told about driving across rough terrain in a Model A (good ground clearance) and using the battery (6 volt I think) to help a neighbor set off those newfangled electric blasting caps. The Model A battery was underneath the passenger seat, I think he said? (Heard the story a long time ago.) [/QUOTE]
