Most 0-60psi gauges also go down to about 3psi and not overly accurate. I'd suggest you get a 0-15 dial gauge, getting down below 10psi, accurate psi ratings are much more critical.
Agreed. I have a low pressure dial gauge, but prefer the cheap digital gauges. The trick is finding one that reads low pressure.
From my experience driving trucks off highway if I start sliding backwards and can't hold it usually best off to push in clutch or find nuetral and steer to back into the high side bank. Either you'll be stopped there or spin around and drive it out forwards down the hill. If you've lost control I'd rather hit going slower than faster. Obviously exceptions do apply. Hard to use broad stroke for wide possibility of conditions.

Ya, that's always my goal... in this case steering did nothing, went lock to lock and just stayed right in the ruts. On a flat I drove a quarter mile or so with my wheels full lock just for the laughs.
