Yeah, foot in throttle only woks well with front drivers. Course, when the back end starts to wiggle, I just reach for the short stick and pop it into 4-hi and keep on keeping on. All personal rigs have power at both ends. Last Feb I went 100 miles each way for winter convention of our 4x4 association. 3 hours each way on I-5 on packed snow and ice (and through Salem and Portland (OR)). Only had about a third of the normal group though.
Careful about where ya buy in Florida…

Are all the Home Depots that run out of shovels in the southern states??? The world wonders.
Don’t want to move to Florida. I used to but then I was visiting the in-laws and got caught in a hurricane. I’ll take a little snow anytime. Just put on the coffee and sit at the workbench till the snow melts.

Got that right, was in MS 4 years after Camile---- Hurricane alley and tornados, you can keep them…At least with a wild fire or earthquake, whatever is left of the house is in pretty much the same place you left it, not 15 counties downwind away.
Course, spent time shoveling off roofs to get the snow load down so they didn’t come down when I was younger and in school.
Lol, I was joking about Florida. Nice in the winter but not a big fan in the summer. Know what you mean about hurricanes though I think I’d have more issue with the heat, humidity, and mosquitoes in the summer.
Hey BlackSheep - where are you in upstate NY? I’m in Albany, home of the finest bunch of corrupt legislators money can buy. There was a huge run on the stores here too and I still think the south is the answer. Maybe it rains instead of snows but I never shoveled rain.
Here in Phoenix, Arizona, I never had to shovel sunshine or heat.
spent last20 yearsin Erie, Pa., now residing in Roanoke Va. it is funny mention snow and people start panicking so far this year maybe 3 inches total WOW!!!
jef pez -
I’m in Utica, NY (aka… Sin City).
Never been there other than passing thru heading to Syracuse when my daughter was in school there. I don’t know why it’s called Sin City but having had a few Utica Clubs over the years I’ll say that’s a sinful product.
Jeff, Blacksheep’s a good guy, though we’ve never met I consider him a friend- we’re just joking around don’t be so serious [:P]
Well supposed to get another couple of inches tonight. No big deal. Now they are saying Sunday Monday Tuesday another possible 2 feet. I know I live in new England but this is ridiculous. I’m a mail carrier this is putting a lot of extra mileage on my feet can’t cut across lawns to deep. John
My normal route I walk just short of 11 miles a day.
Speaking of walks, did anyone catch this on the news a couple days ago?
I heard about that good for him
Gotta love California. [H]
Let me reiterate that, the part of CA I am in never gets snow.
Up in northern CA they have multiple ski resorts.
thats not snow ! those are dollar bills from heaven ! ( i plow at an airport and the overtime is fantastic ) sorry guys, i love it !!!
Looks like New England is gonna get more the next couple days.
Yup. It’s coming down now. Will probably end up with about a foot. North of me is supposed to get hammered
Got 6 inches this morning. We’re expecting another 3 - 5 inches by tonight. So sick of snowblowing. LOL!
