the awd helps and good set of snows tires means all the world although unlike the common misconception that seems to be shared by suv owners and any awd owners the like the combination of the two does not mean you're invincible so still have to keep yourself in check.

Fireball ended up doing the same thing past sunday except it was driving on some really nasty uncharted roads after a night of snow. the car is incredible.

That is insane!!! I have to drive 4 or more hours to get to even a couple inches of snow!! It's cloudy here today, the coldest all week and it's still 61 degrees. Believe me I'm not complaining though!!

hahah.. I fill ya.. I'm gettin all excited cause we might get 2-4" by tomorrow. It's suppose to start snowing tonight and snow off and on all day tomorrow. It's gonna be butt cold though. I don't mind, just wish we got more winter weather instead of just cold *** rain and ice.
