  • This should be fun...

    We're traveling to our parents for Christmas, and it's a 420 mile 1-way trip.... and of course, the first major snowfall happens today.

    420 miles of this. It should take us 10 hours or so when it normally takes us 6.

    Thank God for 4wd and 13 years of winter driving experience.....

    Wish us luck...

        I'm totally aware of that - and thats my biggest fear of driiving in the snow.

        Luckilly we're in a 6,000lb 3/4ton truck so if worse comes to worse we'll have some advantage.

              I almost lost the camaro today cause of snow. I was returning a library book to make sure i got my grades and was going about 15mph. I came over this hill with cars coming and guard rails on both sides and the rearend came around. I had it sideways both ways and eventually pulled it back.

              I wasn't scared too much, but the guy coming towards be prolly was.

              Be careful everyone, snow/ice is a *****!

                      We made it - rolled into town at 11:30 pm after leaving at 4:30, so it took an extra hour due to going slower. Half of the trip we averaged 50mph in 4wd, the other half we averaged 70+ in 2wd.

                      It was interesting

                          It's a real-time camera of the road conditions - it only shows something during daylight.
