Yeah, I saw those HUGE snow drifts you were plowing though. How, oh how did you ever make it without getting stuck?!? Its a true testimony to your awesome skills and wicked driving abilities... and I'm sure the chrome exhaust tip had to have helped too!

Come to Colorado and I'll show you some snow.

Friends? LOL

I believe u. The most snow i have ever driven though was snow that was up to the bottom of my bumper with a 3k trailer. Ive gotta give this truck credit though. Its a beast for 2wd. Some of my buddies have been in aw with the way my truck performs. One dya we were goin muddin and my buddy brought his 4x4 burb and i went through more mud then he did and he almost got stuck (grant he had stock street tires). But still i am impressed.

Mike: I think you need to start a couple of new threads. One 4x2 vs 4x4 and another for diesel vs gaggers.

Edit: I meant Matt!
