You see I used to live near Cumberland in a small town called Everett PA. Now that was sheer bordeum. All we had was churches, bars, and auto parts stores.

Yikes.. I know where that is.. No thanks. I'm content enteratining the teenagers with my fast car at our Mall-Mart(wal-mart and the mall combined)

Lucky for me there is NO snow here. Not even in the higher elivated area where I work. Just cold unforgiving rain..

Re: Let it SNOW!

We have snow here! This is from Monday after 3 1/2 inches, we got another 3 inches or so last night but I couldn't get a picture of the car cuz it was too dark and my phone doesn't have a flash... My wife got some pics this morning but I don't have 'em up yet lol...

Re: Let it SNOW!

I did that today too. It is easier to clean snow off the WS and it keeps the snow from weighing down the wipers and screwing them up. That is why I do it (it is very helpful when they call for ice too (like they were here today).

Re: Let it SNOW!

I think we ended up with about 10 inches but now its snowing yet again-lake effect. Here's a pic of my svx in the snow. Its very windy here so not much actually stayed on top of the car.

Re: Let it SNOW!

Nice! I'm surprised at how well the svx handled the snow/ sleet mix. I'm pretty sure the new tires helped also. I had a baja before the svx, and to be honest I wasn't sure how it would handle the snow, with the ground clearance and all...but it got me home safe and that's what counts.

Re: Let it SNOW!

We were supposed to have snow a dozen times now, several feet of it, and all we've had was rain and a bit of ice.
