I'm fine with rain... it sucks, but I manage; and it can lead to some parking lot fun. However, snow=no traction and salted roads. F that!

My new wheels/tires/PHB are sitting in my garage staring at me every day.. Every time its sunny i go "maybe ill mount it on the car today." check weather channel, and boom snow in the schedule. I hate Illinois.

Remember that old poster with the two buzzards on a limb? "Patience, Hell; I'm gonna go kill something." I've had enough Winter; I'm gonna gas up my little demon and head out for a few days... at least it will be warmer where I'm going.

Ya, same here, high 70s last year really spoiled the crap outta me. LoL.
I'm suppose to head downtown Buffalo for a car show inside the Convention Centre. Its going to suck trailering it down there. (enclosed. Trailer) with snow and wind.

I live in Chicago can't wait for spring either, but it was snowing yesterday, I hope the oven opens up a little bit soon.

This winter will never end... At least they aren't letting predictions go unnoticed: http://www.theonion.com/articles/pun...redicti,31712/

Actually you probably don't.

Odds are house prices will be much cheaper. Move to someplace like Texas and you'll have no state income tax either. Gas prices are cheaper. Food prices are cheaper. Etc...

You don't need to earn as much if your cost of living is a lot cheaper. I earn half of what my cousin does, but I live in a house that is twice as large as his and have more nice stuff because he lives in California and I live in Texas. I haven't seen snow since December.

I'm going to take issue with this. Yes, I know the majority of calendars show March 20 as the start of spring, but it's malarkey. March 20 is the spring equinox. Spring starts when it starts and it's not going to be the same time from border to border. I don't know what's up these stupid calendar makers.

As to your actual point, yes, this winter is too darn long. I certainly wouldn't mind living about 600 miles south from here.

OK, I will throw out last years 60's,70's and 80's for most of March, but if you just look at the average temp for March we are and have been way below normal....the wind chill right now is 0..normal high here around Chicago s/b close to 50....a sunny 50 sounds great about now.

Exactly why I moved out of Wisconsin. Now I can drive the Mustang year round with my complaint being that I have to drive with the top up in the winter.

Ouch man, that's no fun. I must say, you've been an inspiration for me getting my GT that I plan to drive all year. Many of my fellow Mainers think I'm nuts, but it can't be much worse than that old 2wd regular cab pickup on bald tires that I learned on. I never had snow tires until some of my recent vehicles. I'm 100% confident that the stang will be just fine with our 8month winters...

I do know I'm having the car Fluid-Filmed every year. That stuff is amazing. In the past I've done my trucks myself just driving the front up on a rock, but this car will have to go up on a lift to get treated.
