[Vwdiesel] TDI Passet 4 motion

[LBaird119 at aol.com]

  It wouldn't surprise me if they'd simply put a 4-Motion badge 
on it if they end up going through chain up areas.  I've thought 
of it as well but here it's USUALLY necessary to have the real 
4X or chains, mostly due to all the nitwits that are going 10mph 
when 35mph would do just fine and the momentum keeps you 
going.  
  Friends went through CA and hit a blockaded chains requirement. 
Dumping down rain, they both jumped out, chained up in less 
than something like 2 minutes.  They got to the top of wherever 
it was, still nothing but rain.  They pulled the chains quickly and 
went on their way.  The one time I got stuck in a chain up area 
I almost pulled them at the top but waited for another couple 
miles and pulled them.  Did just fine and that was with the 
Passat.  Maybe I should get Dad a 4 Motion placard for his....  ;-)
