Oh, winter.
« on: February 05, 2014, 02:46:53 PM »

We've had a couple snowstorms this past week, and more on the way :/



I should clear her off but I'm running out of places to put the snow
:(

Spring better come soon I don't care what the damn groundhog said!

Is that the XR2?

If you heard it from an automotive forum, get a second, and third opinion.

Yep it's my AWD capri. Yes it's got a hard top on it

My red XR2 is parked down at my shop, its only got a soft top on it. I have not been able to get down there much so I'm not sure what shape its in

HAH! You guys got some pretty serious ice huh? Highways look a bit shit down there.

I'll post a pic once I get done blowing/shovelling, were' out of places to put snow. Nothing has melted since my last pic and we're looking at 10+ inches on top of that. My GTXR2 is an indiscernible lump right now

Its been snowing here for the better part of the last 36 hrs. I have gotten a little spoiled the past several years with our mild winters. Fortunately its a lot of snow with very little ice so far.
Not all that cold and not wet. its beautiful so far.
Too bad work is closed down probably until Monday. I believe the forecast is high 50s here mon and tues.
I'm pretty sure the hard top will be off and I will be enjoying the drive home next week :)

We're supposed to see a drastic warmup next week too. My red XR2 is snowed in, my driveway at my shop hasn't been plowed much all winter so it would be tough to get it out. I'll have to look at the roads and see if they're free enough of salt to pull her out

Looks like you got a bit more than we did! We've been seeing 2-8" a couple times a week but I think it's tapering off. Warm weather next week but it's gonna rain.

Wish I had a nice snowblower around here lol

Festy with lift and 175/50/13 firestone winterforce tires don't care how deep it gets! I drove anywhere and everywhere lol, slid everywhere is more like it. No wrecks tho!

Pic of my car at a pit stop, don't usually need any gas it just sips it. I don't know what the rules are here for posting pics and I think this one is a little big so I'll just link it. :)

There's no rules against large images at the moment, it's not been a problem - but thank you for not breaking the page. Your wheels are all sticky-outy! Looks like you were out having fun


I dug her out a little while ago, sort of,
