What's funny though, I went to school in Erie for 4 yrs, 2 hrs north of here.... they get ~100in/yr... those people go the speed limit, on roads packed with snow for wks at a time...

My 96 saw several Colorado winters, but the 2010 hasn't seen it once. Well not since I've had it anyway

Ain't that the truth ! Even when it rains they can't drive !

I love adverse conditions , so much fun to drive in and test your driving skills .

The best is this, the last decent snow we had a couple weeks ago I went to go to the store. Mind you I live away from town so the roads were untouched with 7-8" or so and I came upon someone going what I figured to be 2mph.... Not really sure the speedo was barely reading. They got pissed when I passed them but Seriously People.... If you are that scared to drive then stay home. Me, I have a blast. I make up reasons to go driving in it, I learned to drive in the snow from my old man before I had a license. You just have to respect adverse conditions and know how fast things can happen, at the same time taking into consideration your abilities.
