Does anybody use their Barth in icy/snowy conditions
that require the use of chains??
In different provinces (etc +) within Canada winter tires are mandatory....

What is your view of/on this???

If I needed chains I would park it and wait for the roads to clear, but then I live in AZ. Last recorded snow fall was 1933. Sorry, but just could not resist.

If they use salt on the roads like they do here, driving in winter as I have done twice, I have seen more corrosion underneath on chassis. For its age my coach has little rust but what it has was much worse in just the last 2 years. I will not run in salt again.





As for clean snow, I guess it wouldn't be too bad. My coach tracks straight, front brakes lock before rear brakes but it stays pointed straight. With the weight we have on our tires, I don't think snow tires would make much difference.

It would be a real pain to use chains, I don't think they would have clearance between the dual tires.
