Default It was good while it lasted....

Well I logged almost 1000 miles since the middle of Dec which is more than I thought I would....I ordered my CTEK and with the impending 2 ft of snow I don't think it will get out of the garage until the Spring.....hope everyone else in the North East stays safe.....

I might take mine out this afternoon in the snow and play around in the Playland car park. We've not even had an inch yet so could be fun and they're not salting the roads yet either.

Snow isn't supposed to be bad until this evening, so they should be able to get it loaded.

Good to hear it got loaded up! Hopefully they're heading south now and avoid the snow.

Certainly glad I don't live there anymore. ****ty roads, ****ty weather, traffic, I'm over it.

Walked outside this morning, 55, beautiful sunny CO, hit some word class mountain roads. Not to rub it in.

I've come to dislike winter for the most part over the years but owning a GT3 has really made me despise it now. Kills me having to look at her sitting quiet and still, so unnatural. Oh well, here's to hoping for quick February!

Yes I even had to use my AC while driving my GT3 along PCH. Outrageous! ;-).

Sorry, but would be on my mind if it was mine.... Most likely will be fine as trucks are use to weather and take precautions the average driver doesn't.

Let us know when safely in its bed!!!
