Re: Let it SNOW!

We got about 10'' here in the Poconos. As I came home from work, I took a side road that wasn't plowed! No tracks from other vehicles. It was a 4 mile winding road. I was so amazed that I was able to plow right through without any problems. Thank you SVX! and snow tires too.

Re: Let it SNOW!

We got 8" on friday here. Another 2 or 3 yesterday.

I drove all over the place this weekend. The SVX does not get stuck easily.

I don't think I've ever gotten the outside this dirty though.

Re: Let it SNOW!

Nothing bit a bit more rain, some wind, and rain that turns to ice when it hits the ground, which is unplesant.

Re: Let it SNOW!

Ew.. We had terrible wind here this morning and some last night. When I went outside to head to work this morning it felt kinda warm out.. As I drove up the moutain, heading to work, there is snow everywhere! Only thing I'm excited about is I get to test my new HID's out on the bad weather.. I hate the snow.

Re: Let it SNOW!

Hello Guys!

Greetings from Estonia. My First post here, but love to read about your wisdom about the tech part.

Bought my SVX for 2400USD a month ago and repaired thanks to your tips many problems, then waited for the snow and ice to come, now they are here .

Have to love the SVX on Frozen lakes, in fact so much, I´d like to share it with you.

Re: Let it SNOW!

Flocks of Robins are moving through Gainesville today. Seems like a week or two earlier than last year. The SVX is under cover but the Volvo took a few direct hits. Spring is around the corner!

To tell you the truth, I don't do anything to keep the snow off. The only things I do for my wheels is use turtle wax zip wax carwash, westley's white wall, black magic tire spray and thats about it. But I haven't washed anything in a while, too cold.

Re: Let it SNOW!

Our weather has been amazing lately, 55 on friday, yesterday rained all day and today it is rain, currently changing to sleet and we're supposed to get 4 to 6 inches of snow on top of this, not to mention the 30 mph wind with gusts above 45.
Oh, and its supposed to be sunny and 40 tomorrow so all of it will melt again. Standing water is already everywhere after the warmup melting almost all of the snow and now it will be even worse. Isn't Wisconsin great
