Snow Storm

I am 8 miles south or Cincinnati, Ohio in Florence Kentucky. Over the last couple of days we received 16 inches of snow and ice. I would like to say that the 2001 A4WD EB Exby did awesome in the terrible road conditions.

Please send some my way......

I have been watching the forecasts and I am feeling kinda left out.

Now not to make light of a serious life threatining ( taking ) situation I would LOVE a major snowstorm right about now.

Ahhh... Just got to love the Expy in 4low plowing thru drifts.
Just look out for everyone else on the road!

I'm a bit North of you, up on the lake in Avon west of Cleveland. I took this picture Christmas morning. It was a blast driving in that stuff, but clearing the driveway took forever!

We had a blast in the 20inches north of Dayton back then.

Lets do it again!

Thumbs up

I took this ice fishing at Lake of the Prairies (central Manitoba, Canada) on Dec. 26, 2004. Received 34 inches of snow in 2 days. Temperature was -20 celsius (-4 F). My Expy was a blast to plow thru the snow in!

What tires are you using SMIGGS. I find my '03 w/Conti's useless in the snow in Northern Ontario. Anything more then 4 inches of snow and it is all over the road in 4WD.

They are Goodyear Wranglers. I think they came from the factory with these tires. It was light snow.

I'm running factory equipment Goodyear RT/S tires too. Have no problem with snow 24" or less. Any deeper than 24" the truck seems to get hi-centered and bog down but I think that has little if nothing to do with the tires.... This thing is a family car, not a tank

Our is known as the family tank rather than family car.
Passed a lot of cars in the ditches but didn't pass a gas station!

Forecasts looks like we might get some more snow! Lets play.
