I was like that. ALWAYS that guy who drove my 4x2 to work 26 miles one way in ALL weather. Because the show must go on and setting a good example and all. While guys with 4x4's called to say they cant get out of their sloped outward driveways. Then that company laid me off. Never again will I be that stupid and gullible.I used to be just like you.
Then I totaled my truck in the ice stork of Feb 2022. Cost me half a year's wages, and damn near cost me my life.
You know who DIDN'T help me pay for that? My employer. I'm one of those guys that rarely, rarely misses work. Next time it's ice and snow, I wouldn't bet on it.
