We got some good snow over thanksgiving so it was time to see how well the truck did in the snow and the big mud it created when it melted. The mud ended up being worse than the snow.
A few things I tested was my new tire deflater valves and my Smitty air compressor. The valves still required some adjusting, but hopefully they perform correctly on the next outing. The air compressor worked great and was very fast. I'm still debating installing it under the hood or even under the rear seat. Perhaps I'll just put in a quick disconnect for power and run it to the grill. That way I can keep the compressor portable.
Also I got to use the winch setup from @VICE design on a RAV4 that got stuck in a snowbank off the main trail. Pulled it right out with no issues. It had no business out there. I think they were out camping and woke up to the snow.
