Still snowing like crazy here. Everyone in our neighborhood is stuck, the snow is just too deep to go anywhere.

I'm not looking forward to plowing this stuff.

Gotta love the heavy wet spring snows!! Nothing piles up like that stuff. You know it's a big system when I'm in E SoDak getting rain from the same one you guy's are getting snow with.

Monument has been getting hammered too. If your FIL is plowing, then he's making some cash right now. They've been getting snow since Thursday.

Check out the CDOT page, you can click on camera locations to see the traffic and weather on the highways:

So Andrew, did you notice better starting power with the new Stancor? Been on the fence with this one.

On edit: Sorry Mr. Pocket, I just officially hijacked! Hope you got yours up and running.

Starts up like normal, maybe a little better but not noticeable. It's definitely nice to not have to pop the hood each time you want to start the truck! I would wait on this mod until yours goes out.

Sorry to hijack the thread Mr. Pocket.
