Hahaha that's sweet! And the one thing I miss about storing my car for winter nowadays. I didn't know you guys got that much snow down there!

The last time we had enough snow for that much fun I didn't even have my M-Tech body kit yet. What tires are you using?

Most snow I’ve seen here in 15 years


This car does so unbelievably well in the snow. Not in the sense that it can remove a tree, but in the sense that it’s so controllable, and the traction control is witchcraft when you want it

Do you have a LSD? I weirdly never missed it in the snow but I do miss it in the dry/summer.

NO! I’m looking at getting one now; I have to do rear suspension work anyway

I think a few of us northern New Englander's (and all of our brothers in Canada) can attest that some of you haven't seen real snow yet

you know you live somewhere with a lot of snow when you have trouble checking for traffic when you're backing out of your driveway. Because the pile of snow adjacent to your driveway is taller than both your car, and you when you're standing

More snow than we’ve gotten in northern KY all winter season this year for sure.

I wouldn’t be doing that in my ZHP though. Too much damn salt on the roads.

This is what winter looks like here right now. Definitely nippy in the mornings [emoji28]

I’d kill for consistent 70deg. weather, mid 70s is PERFECT

You've nailed my biggest complaint.... the mid winter snow bank at the end of my driveway can easily be over 10' high and getting T-Boned pulling out becomes a potential reality!!!! A completely blind decision to stick your nose out into the street .....
:ducking

And of course the driver about to possibly hit me can't possibly stop in time in the snow (not his fault) and would just slide right into someone..... And that's why we store our beauties and drive taller SUV's all winter- self protection just to give ourselves a chance

I fight with my plow guy all winter to not push all the snow there, but in reality.... it has to go somewhere...not really his fault either.

What's the temperature down south again?

Honestly, this year has been a very mild winter. I've been home for the Christmas break, and am still at home because school is closed. And I haven't had to shovel snow even once

Always roller coaster weather - piles of snow, but top down weather today in Omaha

And you can just tell I'm a nerd because of this video:

tl;dw: Basically the greater the mass is of ice, the longer it takes to melt, because the ice within the ice is still cold. It was mentioned in one part of the video that an ice mountain that was formed in Boston from all the snow-shoveling took until June or July to completely melt. Heck, back in the day, they shipped ice from the Great Lakes to India by boat, even though a bunch of it melted it was still worth it to do so!
