A few Jeeps and 4x4 trucks were the only things out there on the way over; on the way back there was a T-bird in a ditch. No way THAT car should have tried the mountain tonight. The road was completely white, no scraper or cinders, about two inches of snow with sleet on top. I don't care what anyone says....Impreza's are great bad-weather cars. Having good ice/snow tires doesn't hurt either. Don
Be careful out there, Don. There's something omenous about the words, "ice, snow, mountains, ditches, etc." Remind me to bore you with the story about, "Me, freezing drizzle, RWD Fiat 128, 40 miles, dark, curves, hills etc." That was the time I think I truly learned "How to Drive".
Ron.
