bald 2 front tires on awd sucks.
Late to new job because this is my first winter driving and didnt have a scraper or well anything else you need it took me about 10 minutes to get my door unlocked and open on the passenger side to climb over cause the driver side simply wasnt having it. Then I took the vacuum attachment to clean my windows and headlights. After work though lots n lots of drifting my god awd rocks.. So much easier to counter then a rwd in snow

Try 2 rear wheels that are bald. That sucks worse. But its fun going side ways whenever I hit the gas. I love the launching, people looking all weird cause all my wheels are spinning but not going anywhere then poof I'm gone leaving the little honduhs spinning in the snow. Ahh the looks are priceless.

BTW: I'm loving the snow. The cold sucks but the snow is cool!

Ya ive been awd launching everywhere. Anypatch of snow clutch kick and woah!. I even AWD launched into the carwash (which i got free love having friends that work at gas stations) then got a pretty car wash.. Coming out of it sucked ass though because the wax and foam under my excuse of a spoiler was still there as well as the stuff around my license plate. So it froze and when I got home my gf made fun of me so I left it. Looks kinda like a giant frozen cum splat on the rear of my car. So thats a reason winter sucks.

Wait til tomorrow morning when you try opening that freshly washed car


The snow doesnt bother me one bit, it is the blistering wind that sucks. Also, it has been busy as hell at work because everyone waits til the first snow to realize they need new tires.

Just crank the wheel and floor it! Just make sure you have plent of room, dont want to kit an island or light pull

I can't wait for autostart and keyless! Damn glad I have that coming!

[Halon]

It's my first time in snow in 3 years. Went to dust off the snow on my windshield at 5:30am, and i dusted it right into the wind and got a face full of snow. That stuff is frickin cold. I can't wait until Spring!

[unreal808]

At home
I still have to put holiday lights up on the outside of the house.
I still need to change the oil in the snow blower.
I still need to buy some salt.
At work
I hate working under customer cars in the winter.
I hate pushing in frozen cars that wont start.
I hate frozen leather seats.
I do like the snowball fights at work.
But it is Minnesota and I do look forward to playing in the snow with my son.
And I like doing other winter things like snowmobiling, skiing, ice fishing, and going back home to a hot cup of coco.

Ahh! Tossed on my Burton Vest and my Jacket, made the jaunt across my back yard and stepped into a nice warm garage. Let 2G warm up for a minute, and out into the cold I went. Lovin the new house!

I went snow drifting all last night at my old high school parking lot. got some footage on the phoen but cant get it on here. Ill make a video when its a lil more powder. It was really rough in some spots but overall was fun as hell fully countered doing figure 8's and what not.

After freezing ass this morning for two hours, I've decided this climate sucks very bad. My Official Question For Winter would be, WTF makes people live here year after year?

10) Regular windshield washer fluid freezes to the windshield to form one huge sheet of ice.
11) Driving down the highway looking through a windshield covered in one huge sheet of ice caused by frozen windshield washer fluid.

[A//// Guy]

Your wipers must not be working or your pouring straight water in the tank... I never have a problem with freezing wiper fluid because your wipers should clear it all of right away.

As for living here, its different when you grow up here, you just get used to it and I like the variety of weather we have here, snow is fun for me, but I dont know why other people still live here when most of them just complain.

[BOVADDICT]

I used to live in cali up till 3 years ago.. I asked my gf and friends that same question.

I like having snow available to me(im heavily into snowboarding) but to be honest you need to drive just as far from here to get to a "hill" as it took me to drive in cali to get to a "mountain". But there I didnt have to wake up to this everyday.

Ya I hate it when it's 81 outside little humiditiy on November 19th with a slight breeze. little overcast but otherwise perfect racing weather.

Gorry to hear about the cold front guys.

[CVD]

Cold front nothin! It's 38 degrees outside. This here's a WARM front!

[FattyBoomBatty]

81 degrees? what?

[SlowWhite]

I've been visiting Florida since December 2004.

[turbo2086]

Im from florida, oh how I took the weather for granted down there!
