the corolla aint going anywhere, and thats my ride lately. the E30 has no 2nd gear or reverse... i moved it to where i plowed already, but fawk. im supposed to take it to some dude to get a new trans put in it later today. that may have to wait till tomorrow. moms benzo isnt leaving the garage cause its shit in the snow. i'll have to wait till dad gets home with the truck, or my brother gets home before i can get some more gas. i even have reg gas, but no fucking 2 cycle oil. i had to hand shovel a bunch of it, too. only did like 2/3's of the driveway. we have a big ass driveway..

I still wear shorts all the time though, unless I will have to spend major time outside or it is raining or something. We usually get SOMETHING, but not always anything substantial.

Awesome.
Thanks for the pic Dane. Looks like you are getting hit HARD. Please get Trans fixed so you can dump clutch in the snow.

Global warming, my ass.
Only had a dusting here last night, but mountains are just getting buried. We're expecting the deep freeze starting tonight with highs in the teens tomorrow and the high on Sunday expected to be around 8 deg F.

haha, im about to snap some more pix. i manned up and drove the bish to the gas station. i didnt stop at anything. i was afraid of losing my momentum and getting sort of stuck. i wouldnt be worried about it, but i dont have reverse. i couldnt rock my way out of that shit if my life depended on it. i made it, however. and it was fun. spun 180 degrees turning onto my street, but i didnt let off the gas. snows are fun! just keep constant pressure on the gas and steer. ill post that shit up in a bit. gotta start working on the other side of the driveway. its like 14" deep in the areas i attempted to start shoveling. thats why i took the chance and went to get some 2 cycle. w00t.

lol. real men are born in the midwest.
hell yes my valence is falling off. it was pushing shit all the way to the store. ofcourse, the rolla. its still trapped. ill get to it later.. thats all ive got! anyhow, the E30 should look a bit different in the spring. assuming i can start saving some pennies. i already have a new valence, fogs, mud flaps, windshield trim (front and rear), etc. im planning on getting a set of ground controls/koni's and going as low as they allow, MB 15 hole 16" wheels, ellipsoids, and a Z3 antenna. any pics from you guys?

Just a shit ton of ice here. Trees be cracklin in the wind. Looks like everything is covered in glass.
Driving to work at 5am this morning was a bitch. Took me an extra 45 min to get to work. Not cool. And its still snowing/raining/freezing. Bummer.

Pics suck cause I shot them with my point and shoot and I didn't give a fuck. You get the idea. That snow blower is huge. It's about as ig of one as you can buy. The snow was OVER the top of it.
