i'm in houston too. unfortunately i don't think the snow will be here long enough to make a difference really. Maybe some icy bridges on my way to school in the morning but that's about it.

That is considered snowing?!? hehehehe I get more white on my truck from geese poop than what you have in those pics! :P

Aren't you the same guy that engages 4wd when it really rains? If so...just stay home and give the DOT ones less headache!

JUST KIDDING JUST KIDDING!! man I'm in the groove tonight!

Anyway...just drive the speed a little below and little bit more below on the highway...don't follow to close and try to avoid to stop cause you will loose your traction sometime. I find it also best to make my own tracks than follow in someone else...if all else fails..stay at home drink a beverage and play a game.

Goodluck.

WTF?? You are worried about a trace amount of snow?
Oh wait, you are the kid who puts it in 4WD in rain. I suggest you put it in 4LO.

Quoted from Lewis Black-
FU<K ITS COLD!!!!!! WHERE THE FU<K IS GLOBAL WARMING WHEN YOU NEED IT??????

Someone has to be the instigator since Indy isn't around anymore...that was his true calling.
