Andy Wrote:AS tires might be helpful in the Valley but does it snow hard enough/long enough to really worry about driving in the snow. Most of the time, the roads are plowed before I'm awake and if it isn't, work from home or play hookie.
I don't worry about it per se. I'm certainly not one of those people who feels like I need an SUV, with 4WD low and studded tires to get around Nova... I just like to actually drive in the stuff. I guess I'm different in that the first thing I do as soon as any snow starts to accumulate is go out for a drive and I want something that will support my habit. Hell, I'll drive to the grocery store to buy a quart of milk just as an excuse to go out in the stuff.

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth
