Default Fun in the snow

Last night we got about a good 15-18 inches here at school. I was pretty impressed. The plow just goes down the rows in the parking lot and pushes all the snow out of the way exccept it goes in front of all the cars. So I put her in 4wheel and with out even spinning the tires got through a 3 foot pile of snow, then later I parked and the plow pushed the snow right in front of my truck and once again not a problem. I have a picture... The second picutre is of my girl friends Infiniti G20 that was burrrrried. Took an hour to dig out.

She pulled right out of that like nothing. I love 4 wheel drive

I love the snow though, so it was fun. Too many fun back roads to mess around on up here. Plus we got some nice parking lots so it makes for fun nights when it snows like that.

I'm in southern Ontario, we got about about 25-30cms (~12 inches). The plow does our road, but leaves a big pile in the middle of the road. It's hard to get around.
