first storm of the season in New York and no garage . As you can see theres a car cover but it blew partially off over night and i know i cant put back on since snow got under it a little. Thats all i need for the cover to freeze to the car.Sunday there calling for another 5-10 " and this is Long Island not upstate.

It appears that your cold air intakes are doing a great job of bringing in the cold air.

Andy, That was low. Funny but low.

Cobey, I heard that. I'm a transplant from N.J. I left specifically because of the winters.

GoRideSno,
see what happens after we talked about the hot air problem on thursday.i feel sorry for Tarek i think hes driving his 911 in this since some kid drove into his 928 the other day.

ViribusUnits,
defrost thats the least of my worries i still have to get the car to my roll cage guy. Good thing is the car cover is still covering most of the car including windows.

Cobey,
the white stuff can be fun especially if you have 4wd it just gives the 928 a rest for a few months.The only sad thing i miss is last year for the snow i had a Hummer H1 not the fake chevy hummer h2.unfortunatly i broke that too. rear axle snapped playing in the snow (don't ask)

Steve,

Looks like Tic and Toc need to start working on the shoveling.

Snow is knee deep here in Mass, and of course I dont have boots, gloves or a shovel(smart huh?). Glad I had an ice scraper! I get to freeze trying to dig out my Blazer as the 928 gets a nice heated garage. First snow of the year and I'm already cursing it. The 4wd in the snow is a must here, I dont think they've plowed yet.
