that sucks... i drove my pony in the snow for a whole year (put some snow tires on it that i had from a Ranger) and had WAYYYY too many close calls for that.

next $500 i saved went to the 1st 4x4 truck i could find.

i used to live with my grandma in PA and we used to always joke that the state joke was "men working"

penndot does suck though...

sux bro.. thats why i called out of work today. we got like 12" last night/this morning. i wasnt about to even attempt the venture. my boss had a 2000 GT so she understood.

she needs to come off the road real soon. i picked up a 4x4 ranger for 1k last year but i need to still fix a tranny line before i can put i back on the road.

in a weird sort of way, i hate all of you...

everyone from my hometown said we got over 12" of snow, i heard some parts of MA near RI got over 30"(!)

here in Northampton... NOTHING. not even enough to cover the damn road in that snowy dust.

although granted the night my son was born we had over 9" that hadnt been touched yet. i was thanking every entity known to man that i got my truck back 2 days before (needed a clutch, had it at my friends house from tech school).

I love how the people who got snow, hate it but the people who don't get snow, want it.

I even went as far as to say that I wish one day I could go outside and have to uncover my car because of snow. Oh sigh. D:

That does suck. Looks like you need to go back and look for that Cobra insert. If you end up getting the whole thing repainted what color you going with?
