"The rest of the ShurTrax system seems to be top notch. However the filler neck and plastic around it ruined a excellent rating for the product."

"The best idea for traction while driving your pickup truck w/o costly add-ons conversions. It's great."

"Pros: Provides good weight right over the rear axel. Easy to install.
Cons: The garden hose adapter leaks in a steady stream."

ShurTrax@6200 Ft.- F-150 4 WD

"We live in the beautiful, green mountains of south-central New Mexico. Unfortunately, this year was predicted to be a light snow year and so far, it's true.
Like the other reviews, the hardest part of the install was getting the fill spout to unfold. Had to use pliers; be careful! You can damage the plastic filler neck if you use the wrong tool. Hard to gauge the 3 inch fill recommendation; we used a plastic ruler. So far, the ShurTrax is working as advertised. The added wt. helps with ride quality. Of course the 4.6L works a bit harder, but we expected that. Hopefully, we will see some snow soon and can test it as it was intended. Ours is secured with rubber hook straps and has held securely. Have hauled heavy cardboard boxes and large, full plastic storage bins on top of the ShurTrax with no problem. Some nights, the water freezes completely, but the bag has held. Thus far, a quality product that seems to work as advertised."

"Just as described and does just what I need in the winter for more traction. I was able to test this out on packed snow and ice, other cars couldn't even climb the hill and I didn't even need 4x4. The only drawback is the fill feels cheap and fits poorly, hopefully this will not be an issue in later years."

"I bought as a Christmas gift for my husband and he loved the idea as he had never heard of them. They did help with the ride of the truck so it didn't feel like riding in a tank and also helped with the handeling in snow."

"bought two, one for my daughter and one for myself. Real big storm hit and these worked great. Grommets need c clamps to make them easier to tie down."

"Nice product and easy to install - just tie it off so avoid slipping and fill with water. I did have a problem extending the fill spout using the pull tabs - be careful. The plastic nozzle is quite rigid when cold. Other than that - it should work fine and provide enough weight to keep the rear in touch with the road."
