I didn't know that one either. Try www.urbandictionary.com for all your acronym needs.

I used to love snow days when I had the A4... It's one of the 3 days out of a year that I can beat a BMW 3's from a stand still

Sweet. I finally learned what it stood for, but didn't know what it meant.

These discussions are getting old....

The G35 was probably wearing summer tires. My neighbor wrecked his AWD S4 a few years ago, and he had summer rubber too... In fact yesterday when I arrived at work, I saw a G35 Coupe come into work despite the freezing rain and sleet we got in the morning. And I saw he was wearing summer rubber, so he's lucky.

I didn't have problems with my G35 Coupe in the snow last year, and I live on a hill. My wife got stuck on this said hill. But that's because the stock tires on the TL suck too.

Hit 74 here today. Downright balmy. Was in South Carolina the second part of last week and people were swimming in outdoor pools and using hot tubs.

But it all changes Monday when we get into the high 30's
