I posted this in another section the other day but here is my car shortly after the snow stopped falling (about 44 hours ago and my road is still solid white).

Here is a shot of mine in NC ten years ago. I had just bought it the day before. Now it has been sitting in a nice heated garage since mid November.

if I could figure out a way to download a pic from my cell, Id show you my Trans Am after a storm last week, the way the wind was blowing the rear window is completely gone, my car looks like a station wagon, the snow forms an almost perfect line from the roof pillar to the spoiler.

Mine gets to see its first winter since it was new this year. This will be its last My SS with little 215/60-16 snow tires is getting around like hero, so at least driving it is ton of fun rather an aggravation. Not liking the wear n tear on the interior though Ive got the exterior protected with a couple layers of cquartz.

I bought a brand new Silverado last year for a winter beater so I didnt have to drive my trans am in the snow here in NY haha. Its amazing what the salt around here does to cars, My old 2001 silverado was shot after 13 years and my 95 trans am that has never seen snow/salt I could remove every nut/bolt/brake line on the car. A automobile is the worst investment you could make in the north east LOL

Believe me, if I did have a house with a garage this thing would be in there ASAP. Unfortunately some of us don't have that option.

Barracks life

Still is not my daily driver and never driven in snow though

The best you're gonna get backed it out to get the car moved over a bit to do the 80E swap
