Good morning Jim and Cory!

Yeah I'm not sure how much snow we got. I would guess a few inches of snow but it drifted so bad with the ridiculous winds that its hard to tell. We lost power this morning for a couple hours as well. Was thinking I was gonna have to start thinking about the generator when it came back on.

Good morning Jim. Supposed to be a high of about -4 here today I think.

I hope it improves on my mpg Jim. Looks like it will from the little driving I have done so far.

You at least gained some payload capacity getting rid of a couple hundred pounds of dead weight

Good morning Cory! You should park it inside the heated garage then it won't be so stiff and cold. Wait......you are talking about your car...right?
