Don't worry squee...winter will dig in here soon then I'll be bitching about snow. You live in the mountains, no (colorado?)? I actually like the snow most the time...but I don't always like driving in it.

Not in the mountains no.

I'm in the foothills.

Thats a misconception, when people say Colorado they automatically think Rocky Mountains. Which isn't true. Denver is actually only 5,380' which is why it's called the mile high city. Denver is actually in a valley.

I absolutely love driving in the snow.. It's so much fun to do donuts and fishtails which is the only time I ever do it during the year I wish we had lake effect snow more often than the west side of the state!

I realize that Squee...however compared to me, you're in the mountains, even if they are only considered foothills. And casper I hear ya, thats all I used to do in my tracer, I haven't tried with the neon in the snow.

Snow's fun....Except when I got stuck going uphill in about 2 inches of snow ( don't ask me how I managed that one..) and had to be pulled by a FORD! with a V-6 no less!!! My Caprice had a v-8...so embarassing! [:@]
