I have one of the older non-touchscreen Kindles that has buttons to turn the page. As for why a Kindle or other electronic device designed for reading books, mine has a library of reading, more than you could carry in a big book bag and while it does require electricity to run, I can charge it just about anywhere. Until we get hit with the big EMP, my Kindle will be good to go. YMMV


I've considered getting chains, but after much consideration -

Realized I probably wouldn't ever take the time to put them on... and that's most likely not going to be in a warm garage.

Secondly, your limited to 35 MPH. I guess if you REALLY need the chains, you won't be going over that speed anyway..

I have a set of four Blizzak Snow Tires mounted on steel rims. I swap them out every spring for all season radials. Rims cost me $100 from the junk yard, and the tires were $50 each, and I will get many years of use out of them.
