Well, we dug out for the most part, but in all my life, I have not seen that much snow. Well, except when I was stationed at Ellsworth AFB South Dakota for 4 years and we had 15 inches of snow with 85 mph wind gusts during a big blizzard, but this here in Denver was a straight up dumping of the snow Gods. Believe it or not, most of the major roads are bone dry and the suburb streets are kinda slushy. Yes, it is my daily driver since I got rid of my 92 Accord But, my wife and I were snowed in for 2.5 days and it was a well deserved break for our hectic schedules and we spent some good quality time together...we'll see if anything happens 9 months from now LOL

The TL is handling well in the snow, I just got to avoid some of those parking lots that have those huge lumps and dips from ice. I can say with 100% certainty that my wheels no longer look anything like my avatar pic!!! Can't wait for the opportunity to hand wash my baby again

Needless to say, my TLs will not be driving anywhere...anytime soon!!
Especially with a HR drop and body kit

Here are some pics from the garage..like Snickers sez..."Not goin' anywhere for awhile"....




I remember a year ago, around this time there was a snow storm just like this one in RI before I came down to school for FL, this was waaay before i started modding the car... I opened the garage door.. saw all of this snow.. closed it again, swapped my wheels with another pair with larger tires, deflated them just a bit.. and took off into the show for hours on end. Kept it in D1 the entire time with the TCS on, surprisingly it was useful.. This WILL blow your mind though, there was a very thick hill of snow and ice that I drove up on, when i parked and stepped outside, the car was literally almost to above the the first floor of a two-story house. It was insane!

I am from Buffalo, NY and now live in Kentucky. Every time I see snow like that I thank goodness I live south of the Mason Dixon Line, not much snow down here. I hate cold weather these days, I would mover further south if not for family and business.

Yeah, I've been hearing that NJ, NY, CT, and RI people have been having some unusual nice weather lately. I still remember during that crazy storm, I was running errands and had to travel to NY for the night; the state shut down I-95S from Coventry into CT.

Yeah, this snow has been pretty crazy, completely out of nowhere.

I guess I'm just glad my car has been in the shop since last Monday getting the hood fixed and bumper repainted, so I've got a rental car to beat the hell out of and not worry about screwin up the TL

I too will be moving to somewhere farther south in the next 3 years - either S FL or San Diego.

I sure as heck ain't moving to Denver!
