RE: winter tires installed...pic..

when you say "winter tires" is that the same as snow tires? Are they directional?
Obviously I have no experience driving in snow... but hey, on last year's cruise we ran into a little patch of ice on the coldest day of the year in Malibu!

Don't worry Rainson, the snow is on the way! You may get a chance to try those new tires out in the morning according to the weather report here.

I don't want to try..i'm still scared driving in winter...
hey Jim,do u know lidio's web site?

Driving in the snow is no big deal, once you get acclimated to it - the biggest problem with it is having to worrry about the other guy who hasn't figured out that when it snows it takes longer to stop and you don't have the same amount of grip on the road so have to watch the speed!
Lidio's site is www.alternativeauto.com

Mines a DD as well. Except today. My wife stayed home with my son since schools are closed. I snagged her car instead. What we're getting should be coming your way soon. You have fun too.
