Jorylee - Your site manager has probably disabled the jpg files to save space and speed.

You folks in Colorado are having all the fun. Us in Michigan have MUD with no freezing temps any time soon. Snowmobiling should be changed here to: mudmobiling.

Well their calling for potentially another 1-2 feet here in Northern El Paso County. I may need a Snowcat to get around. There is still 4 ft. drifts in the street and I'm not sure my truck will be going anywhere after the next round.

Wonder if you can attach a 8 ft snowblower to front of truck? Never heard of this but with that much snow it would be a must.

i have the pirelli scorpions that came stock with my truck too... there good tires but i did not care for them for use on a 4x4 diesel truck.... in 4wd i havnt had to many complaints but the that much truck i think you could use donuts on it and still do good with that much horse power just my 2 cents...
as for you all getting hit again.. im starting to not feel bad for myself anymore.. i was flooded out of my bottom floor apartment but now im on the 3rd floor... can we say "falling tree's"... ya me... ok.. hope you all are hanging in there.. keep posting pics or email them to me and ill post some for ya.. i have the next seven days off work..... take care and keep showing all those little people out there why its good to be a power stroker oh sorry to own a power stroke diesel....

OK - who was it?

I fly up to the Seattle/Portland area last week to spend the holiday with my family. Sittting in Chicago, waiting for my connecting flight, watching CNN or something while consuming fermented malt beverages, news is talking about the snow storm in Denver. Lots of web cam shots of snow, freeway and snow, roads and snow...occasional snowmobile running down the road.....cut to one web cam, some person with a darker colored Superduty CC 4x4 chugging through the drifts and looked to be irritating the snow machines!
