I might go get some pics at lunch if I can find a good spot around work. Prolly gonna go take some night shots when I get home this evening.

did I mention I hate AWD in slush/icy conditions? I should've taken my 93 X today...

We're sitting around 12" of fresh snow at the moment, I can't wait to find a reason to leave the house.

We are getting 6-8" as I type this. We've had this white crap on the ground since the first week of November.

Sorry Caldwell, but I have totally lost ALL enthusiasm for snow at this point. Total snowfall for this winter is approaching 79", and the worst is yet to come.

i need to move to canada.. yesterday was our second good snowfall and it as only 4" with freezing rain frozen on top of it. and of course after work i went and drove around in it! my crappy tires surprised me in the heavy snow, crawled right up a good incline with no slipping. i really need to get involved with some people who can help show me just how capable my first gen is. but thats for another thread.

 

[Cozmik]

You are more than welcome to come and visit!! We have LOTS of snow for you to play in.

Before I got fed up with it all ( before Christmas ) I took the EB off road for the first time. There was A LOT of snow where we were wheeling. I was very impressed at how well my Grocery Getter 3rd Gen did. (V8 and 32" Dick Cepek's were quite helpful )

The only to watch with winter wheelin' - you have NO IDEA what is under the snow so it greatly increases the destruction possibilities.

yeah ive found that out a few times in the past.. snow hides rocks and trees very well.

theres more reasons than just snow that me and my buddy wanna move to canada.

I was just out with my explorer, didn't get any pictures because I didn't feel like getting out and trudging in the snow anymore than I had to. It was good and deep, up past the running boards on mine. But it plowed through it like a champ, no problems.

We had some snow last night, but now we're getting freezing rain.

I put the stock 245/65/17s back on my explorer last week and damn I actually have traction now. The 265s were horrible in snow. but it was realllly fun sliding around (when i wanted to)

 

[Cozmik]

What 265's were you running? Mine rock in the snow and mud.

what kind of tire are the 265's?

 

[Spazz]

Its all slush down here ... South Jersey never gets the nice snow you guys north and west of the city get =/

 

[BrooklynBay]

There is snow/rain/slush everywhere, and alternate side street cleaning regulations are still in effect!

 

[Cozmik]

So Caldwell, how much snow did you end up with and did you get out to play in it?
