Default Theres Snow Everywhere

Well it's blizzarding here in lincoln and my car is sorta stranded at the house im staying at which sorta sucks and from the looks of it it wont be seeing any driving for about a week at least. Sigh poor car is outside Anyways how do you guys drive your cars are they pampered cars that never see rain and snow or are your cars daily drivers? Just curios. Oh anyone here from around the nebraska Area?

My car is living under a blanket right now, while it snows in Chicago. And no, I didn't order this snow.

My car has never seen snow, and only sees rain once in a while. It doesn't rain to much in SoCal.

That is why I love the city of Houston. We do not know the meaning of the word snow. What is that?
Oh well today was sunny and 71 degrees outside with a little bit of wind. I enjoyed the day by driving around with the top dropped on the Hawk!
It's time to move boyz!

Cool Let it snow, Let it snow...

California Here,

Spent the weekend in the snow. It (snow) is about a three hour drive away.
Took my wives car though, no chains on the Trans Am! With my wives Taurus and chains we were blazing through the snow. All those yups and their SUV's sure hold up traffic. Thought of new bumper sticker though- GET THAT FALSE SENSE OF SECURITY OUT OF MY WAY!
