I *heart* snow

**goodhart** · 12-11-2010

Drove to Princeton today, played/drove around for a good hour or two and never even got close to getting stuck. Most roads in Princeton weren't plowed at all as of about 5:00, and I would say there was right around a foot of snow. Watched a couple clowns struggle for a good half hour to get a 90's jetta about a block down the road just to say screw it and go back home lol.

Vikings game was officially moved to Monday night because of the snow, the giants plane couldn't land and they are staying the night in Kansas city. I haven't seen this much snow since I was a kid, this is crazy.

Got up at 7am and went to work. Came home at 5pm to 3 feet of snow in my driveway.

One of my neighbors was nice enough to snowblow half my driveway so my ol' lady could get her car off the street. I really wish I knew who it was.

2 more hours of shoveling and it was done

Drop that 4x4 and get back to me. lol.

I don't think it's possible to find a good balance between track and Winter.

I'm not sure if the X's traction control was helping or harming. I'm just glad I got home with my six pack. lol.

My IX used to dominate with snow tires even when dropped on S.Techs.

This wasn't the typical 6" dusting. I didn't get stuck but the Evo didn't dominate anything, snow tires and all. The drifts that the big trucks would make can't be gotten through without momentum...and you have to stop at stop lights.
