X2. Absolutely the best snow tire you can buy imo.

I just had an interesting trade offer for my Z28, its a 2002 VW Golf 95K miles with a nice stereo system, and brand new tires (My z could use rear tires). I have the camaro up for sale in the classifieds; I'm tempted to do it only because I think I could sell the VW for more $, and the VW if I decide to keep it will get way better mileage and I already have the vette to drive for speed. What do you guys think? The Z28 just turned over 170K miles

I'm still not convinced its gonna be that bad. I've been watching the radar for the past couple days and even now its shifting in a way that its gonna have to stop dead and spin if were gonna get anything or else its gonna be north and east when the two storms meet.

Same reason my truck sucks more then it should cause I still havn't put any weight in the back. I'm lazy as ****, don't wanna have to take it back out in spring

Lazy ***.

I put 6 60lb bags over the rear axle. Does the trick! Even on ice the thing refuses to slide

I was making fun of a buddy's dad the other day with his 03 1500 Ram. He was showing off trying to floor it in the snow and I was like umm is your posi broken?

Turns out they are one wheel wonders

Well.
Already pretty much final. Waiting for banks to re open after these vacations to buy a 2013 SRX Cadillac Premium for dad. Gonna get rid of the Honda.
Tried to talk him into the SRT8 but he doesn't want it.
Oh well.

Its getting windy here. Expected 60+ MPH winds with snowfall in the 2-3"/hour over night. Going to be interesting to see what we wake up with tomorrow. I am in the 30+ inch of snow zone. The radar shows the storm literally converging over head. Even more weird is they expect T-Storms.. In the middle of a blizzard.. Interesting. If this is my last post because of power lost, Ill see y'all later. Night.

Offered but he doesn't want one. Almost convinced him on a new SRT8 Charger but he seems hell set on that damn SRX . Wanted him to get something performance oriented so I could **** around with it,but oh well.

Got the car today!! Couldn't be happier! Didn't have to put down as much as I thought, ended up putting down 12k and financed the rest. My APR is only 5% going through the dealership. Hell I got turned down for a basic Walmart card a few days ago so this was great news! Already got the windows tinted too. Car currently has 124 miles on it. (had to drive car down from NC dealer)
