I have been driving around in 4wd for a couple days now. It is easier to have it engaged when I have to dodge idiots on the road.

Heeeyyyy...

Man it snowed so much yesterday that I saw Mark's truck at the grocery store and it actually packed in the doorhandles. Very strange.

Today took the R out and it does pretty damned good for a car with lo pro tires, and sits only a few inches off the ground. Toughest part for it is stopping and turning corners. I've learned to make corners in it when it starts to noseslide push the gas harder and it pulls out of the corner.

The stinking Lincoln doesn't want to move. So first chance I get it's getting traded in.
I had to call a friend for a ride to work.

Just started snowing again here. Had just about enough of this stuff. Can't wait to see the pavement again. Shoveled my driveway for the 3rd time now and I'm not going to do it again. I'll just wait till it finally melts away.
