**** weather...

I tell you, between the Valentine's Day snow/ice, then a week of subfreezing temps, now another six inches of snow here, I've driven the Buckskin exactly once in the last ten days!!

I'm going into withdrawal............

Just keep in mind how much you'll appreciate driving your car when the weather clears.

I don't know how you all do it I would go crazy. I'm glad I live in Florida, I can ride pretty much all year long with the top down.

We don't have any snow but there is soo much sand and crap on the road I'm scared to drive, this week yet another rock got my work truck that's an 05 Sprinter front winshield , Can't be cheap, So with all this debrie on the road who wants to really drive, I have the right mind to get pictures and stick it to whoever is supposed to maintain our roads ! Beautiful BC my ****.

Well, I was born in Jacksonville. Haven't been back in nearly 40 years. The older I get, the more moving to Florida sounds good...

I don't care about driving in the salt and snow anymore. It was great to drive the car.

Being from Boston, my heart goes out to you guys.

If you're a car guy, LA is not a bad place to be. Cool and cloudy here today - my idea of bad weather!

All ya gotta worry about is the ol' shake & bake.

Well, that and the carjackings, smog and bumper-to-bumper traffic.

Well, none of that happened to me today. (You've been watching too much TV! ) Anyway, you don't have to shovel any of that stuff!

I got hammered imo! It started friday night with a sleet rain mixture and then yesterday it really started coming down! I woke up to over a foot this morning! And it kept snowing throughout the day. And now were supposed to get more next weekend! All this after most of the old snow melted last week with temps in the 40s! I can't take it any more! I so dang want to move! I really don't want to take the stang out this week! I'm sooooo dying for 90* right now, as I do ALL year long!
There, it feels good to get that out!

My car is a daily driver. I just put my Pirelli Snowsports on in December & let it fly! I can get through just about anything.
