    Not really. You're just slowly cruising along waiting to get out of it.

    Do they make 295/18 mud and snow tires??

    On second thought , I'll keep the twins indoors this winter! 6 more weeks of suffering.

    I commend some of you going to these lengths.

    I would be concerned about getting them back in the garage.

    The snow back drop has a beautiful contrast.

    Yes and no, in deep snow you need to be extremely light on the pedals but with good winter tires and slush conditions, it is fun.

    Yes, we've seen quite a lot of snow here in NY. Second winter in a row that it's been like this. About 4-6 inches have fallen today by me, thus far. Well, soon enough it'll all melt and be a distant memory.

    So today, I decided to give my Mondial a bit of exercise early this morning, as it's been several weeks of it being indoors. (I think the groundhog has been out more. No, the Mondial did not see it's shadow...

    The roads weren't too bad by me, so I figured let's give it a go and see how things go. Started up the car, and all was well. Went with my 5 yr old son, riding co-pilot in the back, and ended up going for a 40 + mile excursion on the highway. Did some sightseeing at a nearby regional airport. The car was in a good mood, despite the sub-freezing temps. Got back home just as the first flakes began to fall. Back in the garage, until who knows when.

    What ever happened to the video of a guy driving his Ferrari in the snow with a giraffe sticking out of the roof?
