I feel like the odd ball out as I am quite excited about the possibility of snow. Can't wait to try the dually out in it...and maybe have some fun waving at people in the ditch...or you know...help them and pull them out...whichever feels better at the time

Funny you should mention that. My wife's car is a 2007 Impreza. It's awesome in the snow, provided it doesn't get ridiculously deep. Hence my desire for ground clearance as well...

The Titan has honestly been the best ride I’ve had in the snow. Lucille might have been, but she didn’t leave the garage when it snowed. Now the white F150 it’ll be out in it if I get the chance this year. Never got to try the f350 either, at the old place it didn’t fit in the garage, so to drive it meant scraping the windshield, and I was just too lazy, with the Jeep in the garage.

It was sleeting when Wesley arrived today. Brrr but the shop warmed up nicely.

While I love the way you think, I don't anticipate switching the Toyo tires out for Super Swampers on the Impreza would be a move well received by the wifey...

Given time, she might come around to the idea. Just remember it’s easier to beg for forgiveness...

Good evening guys.
I came from Wisconsin to get away from the snow. Hopefully it stays away from the coast.

East and South usually gets off easy.

I think even Wake County is going to get off easy this weekend as well.
