More Winter Preparedness

Last week we posted a link to an article about winter preparedness as far as your rig is concerned. This week is a checklist of winter emergency supplies most important to keep in your truck during the winter months. While they seem obvious, it never hurts to be pro-active and do a thorough double check before the cold weather sets in.

  • Snow Chains
  • Jumper Cables
  • Windshield Scraper
  • Extra Batteries
  • Flashlights
  • Flares
  • Shovel
  • Radio
  • Heavy Duty Bungee Cords
  • Kitty Litter/Salt
  • Half-full Tank
  • Anti-gel Fuel Additive
  • Heavy Duty Winter Clothing & Footwear
  • Heavy Duty Knee Pads
  • Extra Blankets/Sleeping Bags
  • Extra Food and Water
  • First Aid Kit

And…take advantage of the warmer weather and do a thorough cleaning of your vehicle inside & out to make life on the road more safe and comfortable!

Winter’s Coming!

Even though we don’t want to think about it a change of seasons is upon us, and living in Canada it’s inevitable that snow will be coming! Most drivers are proactive at this time of year and get their rigs prepared for the cold weather. Breakdowns and slick icy roads in the winter can be dangerous so it never hurts to prepare for the worst before the winter sets in.

Be sure you or your mechanic check your:

  • Tire pressure
  • Brakes
  • Batteries
  • Electrical systems
  • Cooling Systems
  • Compressed air systems
  • Diesel systems
  • Fuel filters & water separators
  • Oils & lubricants
