Jumper Cables Kitty Litter or salt MINIMUM - Half-full of fuel Anti gel and Antifreeze Heavy Duty Winter Clothes including heavy coat, waterproof boots, warm gloves and hat Battery powered radio Flashlights/Extra Batteries Extra Food and Water - Don’t forget your furry co-pilot if you have one! First Aid Kit Cell Phone Charger or Extra Battery CB Radio   Things to consider   Park where you can stay warm – in the event your truck has issues. Check the wind forecast – try to park with your ass to the wind. If the lot is iced over, after parking for your 10 hr. break, wait a few minutes to let the tires cool. Then, move your rig a few inches.   Ensure H&M’s heater units are fueled (add anti gel) And, run a while to make sure they are operating properly. Preplan the entire trip adjusting each days driving times and routing. Weather forecast – be ready to adjust YOUR schedule Plan alternate routes – you may need them. Pre-plan where you will stop - and at least one backup just in case   Find a way to let those close to you know your plans. And, where you stop for your break. i.e. TX.I-35x193@TA - translates to Texas, Interstate 35, exit 193 at the TA Truckstop If the roads are “Slushy”, clear all your lights, blinkers, etc. EVERY TIME you stop.
