They are fun in the snow, especially with a manual!

Porsche + garage = safe

I hear that. We got 14 inches Tuesday night and Wednesday morning. My 928 was safe in the garage until yesterday when the roads were mostly dry.

It was wet, heavy snow and a lot of our trees still had leaves. I would estimate 80% of houses around here have some type o tree damage. My sister and wife's parents didn't have power for 60 hours!

29 years in Ithaca- I sure don't miss the salt! And with a Cargill salt mine right up the road, we saw a lot of it.

If I was looking for safe, I would have bought a Volvo.
