Cyklops99 Posted April 30, 2014 Posted April 30, 2014 I'm certain there is a post somehwere on her about this. however... I have a manual transmission f250 2 wd, and am paranoid about it rolling back into the lake as I launch my boat (if alone) I went and got a pair of cheap $5 chocks from Wal-mart and tried them on one dock, and they seemed to work. question is, have you heard of any trucks rolling in while using wheel chocks? I put my truck in granny low, set the e-brake (which works) and use the wheel chocks. I 1.) dont want to to sink my rig, and 2.) dont want to end up on some arrogant you know whats you tube page for a mistake. (a mistake tat would cost thousands) pobodies nerfect. probably worrying to much, so... Quote
Super User SirSnookalot Posted April 30, 2014 Super User Posted April 30, 2014 I think you are fine. I owned med and heavy duty trucks for 30 some odd years. Chocking, leaving in gear and the emergency brake, I don't think you should worry. Quote
CJV Posted April 30, 2014 Posted April 30, 2014 What's wrong with leaving it in gear and pulling the ebrake? Quote
Super User WIGuide Posted April 30, 2014 Super User Posted April 30, 2014 Probably a bit overkill but you'll be good to go. 1 Quote
