Means the engine-replacement is put on hold, too, however.

anywho - we got our first bit of the white stuff yesterday:



As my car has Azenis 615s, it sits and waits for the thaw.

 

that looks sooo nice, white snow on your house... sucks that your car is frozen but that picture is kool!!

 

oh man, that snow is scary!

 

sweet bro!!! i only droe my 8 in snow once and it was not fun..well not with the stock potenza's..hahah

 

thanks folks - I drove the car in this much snow - or MORE last year, on the dunlops...went..not great, but went. Took me to work. These new tires, though? heck, at the first frost my car nearly went STRAIGHT as the road turned. Skeerd me enough to not even risk it, now.

Here's last year's vid - on the OEM dunlops - you can see I was able to stop at the crest of that hill, and start again.

ooh nice pic. thankfully i'll never be able to take a pic like that here.

-hS

 

my cars has been taking a two and tomorrow will be three days vacation!!! i have been using my wife SUV, and i think Thursday will be another day, i will have to use my back-up car on that day, sens my wife work too!!! it's nice to see ft. Lewis with snow! take a picture of the parade field by i corps. from one side (church) you could get mt Rainer in the middle and trees on both side. it looks really nice!!!

 

That's some thick snow!! I won't be able to experience something like that where I am, but man! That's pretty cool. I want snow. (._.)

 

I've managed in our snow and ice so far, both yesterday, and kinda dreading what I may find in a few minutes when I leave work. It's much worse up by my house compared to in town anywhere. I live at a higher elevation with a lot of hills and curves. Bella did great yesterday on her stock Dunlops.

 

is that the same storm that i saw on monday night football?

 

It is the same storm! (un?)fortunately, downtown seattle wasn't 'that' badly covered. We're hoping to get another 4-6" of snow tonight - but by thursday, temps will be in the 40s again.

booooooo! I'm a snow-lover, but live in a place which doesn't get much.

 

What do you keep in the garage?

 

Junk and stuff

 

Cool pic.


Do you have $30 k + worth of "Junk and stuff" in the garage??

 

learnt my lesson hard way yesterday, but thanks god it could have been worst.

tried to drive down the hill where i lived but car literally lost traction and skidded sideways. it was lucky no obstacles nearby that she could have crashed into.

decided to leave her on the otherside of the neighbourhood below the hill and praying for the weather to "warm" up a bit so my baby can go home

 

Sorry, I gotta say it... You got NOTHIN' on our weather in Calgary! Nov. 27: Hi: -23.8 celcius. With windchill, it was close to -45. I didn't have enough guts to start my car though.

 

I know what you mean Will, all this snow in WA is pissing me off. Driving on Kumho Ecsta SPT tires was a nigtmare the last 2 night's. Time to garage her for this season and start carpooling with the wife in the Rexter. And again nice pics DMP.

 

It's funny listening to all the SoCal guys oohing and aahing over the snow.

 

^^^yea it's nice to look at and admire, but sucks to drive in.

 

I was hoping to try out my new Kumho Ecsta ASX's (all weather) in the snow, but I work from home (yay!) and have been in a 3-day meeting that's an 8-hour telecon each day, so when we're done it's dark outside and I'm not crazy about driving in ice/snow in the dark I'll let you know if I venture out before it thaws.

P.S. Nice pics D!

 

yea Ryan...its really scary, not to mentioned mine still wearing those stock tires

sux thing we only have one car, maybe time to consider an alternative.....
