My car is no longer a snow virgin (pics)

22 inches in Columbia, MD. Wow. Im from Florida and this is just not fun for me =)

I hear all this "snow is so pretty" and I say bullshit.

Its pretty if you dont have to drive in it. Its pretty until it melts all over the street and looks like someone took a slushie dump all over your car. HEH

Seeing cool pictures like that make me wish I lived in a place where it snows just so I could see my car like that and everything covered in snow. Then as soon as I went out the novelty would wear off and I would remember how much I hate the cold.

Yeah...I hear ya! We got about 20 inches over this way - right outside of Balt. Thankfully my TL was in our garage...but my 1996 Civic DX 5SP coupe beater disappeared!

Who here is ready for Spring - and car season again ... raise your hand!

It's car season year round in Texas! In fact it's 80 degrees today! You can keep your snow, been there, done that, done with that!

thats some snow....

i went to florida last week for vacation and it was cold as shit...41 degrees one morning. i left the bay area when it was warmer (which i hate doing) and returned when it was cold. Florida warmed up the day I left it....the Bay Area was wonderful until I returned. Same thing happened when I went to DC. Im afraid to take my TL anywhere

I bought something similar to a SnoBrum. It's a rectangular foam block on a pole and you use it to push the snow off the car; you don't have to touch the paint, but if you do it doesn't scratch.

yea 21" in Columbia is right, we made a 7 foot igloo and fit 7 ppl in it! It was a crucial actual dome igloo. My car looks white now, supposed to be silver. Thats alright, it'll get washed and look brand new. Summer wax sounds good, too bad its a few months away still
