Query: Didn't do squat for me

I've used regular chains off and on for 45 years, so they are not new to me. I decided to try the cable style on my 1/2ton Ford van and they were horrible. In their first use, they wouldn't stay on the tire, flipping off almost immediately, with minimum tire spin. Three hours of screwing around with them, repairing them repeatedly (the diagonal cable) and finally I was able to make it up my modest incline of a driveway. This all occurred in about 6" of snow on a dirt road and drive. The next day I was able to get out (amazingly the cables stayed on for the 1/4 mile drive to pavement) and I immediately went to the local parts house and bought old fashioned ladder style chains. The cable style might work for some, but they were terrible for me. They are pretty easy to put on and take off, I'll give them credit for that.
