Evening guys.

I got about 7"-8" for that storm.
Tonight I went and pushed the snow back more with my tractor to make room for tomorrow and Sunday.

The new S&B cold air intake I put on my truck is working very good.
The intake air temp is only about 5* above ambient air temp.

Miles did you get the pre-filter.
I had one on my old AFE ad it really helped keep the element cleaner.

I dont have the prefilter, i picked the whole intake up for a pretty good deal from The Diesel Shop back at the stafford swap meet a while back. It has the oiled filter though, id like to switch to the dry filter when this one gets dirty

Morning commute is going to be a cluster. Go in a couple hours later if at all if you can help it.

Good morning guys.

Be safe out there today.

Miles the pre-filter keeps the main filter a LOT cleaner.
Why do you not like the oiled one ?

I just heard "pinging" off my windows and sure enough the precipitation here in Wolcott just changed to freezing rain/sleet. I took a quick measuring tape and found 11.5 inches so far.

Good morning everyone. We have about 8" on the ground right now, and it's still snowing. It's lightening up though, so it may be almost done.

My tractor had a tough time with it.
