I'm not too worried about it. I appreciate the thought though.

Good Morning all.. Well, my total hit the 6.5" mark, and I never got to go out and drive in it. This year the plow groups have stayed up on it. Last year at this time they had "ran out of money", so they wouldnt even try to plow until the storm was finished. Not this year.. oh well.

Morning everyone. The fuel mileage on my truck has been in the high 19's the last four tanks. Though I guess when 95% plus of each tank is on the interstate it should be up like that. I have been running PowerService in the white bottle...but that's just for the anti-gell protection (just in case). Had it been warmer, I'd be running gray bottles...wonder how much that would have effect mileage? Now if I could only figure out what it's going to take to get that money tree in the backyard spring back to life.

Pat, sounds like you stand a better chance playing in the stuff done here in Arkansas than in the Great White north. Down here they pretty much wait until the stuff is done falling before heading out with the graders & plows. Though the state will spray the bridges with some concoction that supposed to lower the freeze point of the bridge...before the stuff starts falling. When the state is plowing it's usually at 35 mph on the interstate; and no one will pass the plow...regardless of the road condition. Not in Missouri...they seem to plow the interstates at 60-65 mph. Hard to pass a plow with a truck that governed at 70mph.

I dont know that I will go sticks, unless I win them, or need them. I love the Xtra on the truck, but the money has other places it can go. My tunes, except one, have purpose, that was how I got away with them..A live tune, should just make more sense. Sticks.. I have to wait..
