This *&%$@# Weather!!!

The wife and I are (were) planning a road trip to Florida late this week in the SS. We got 6 inches of snow yesterday and the high temp on Thursday is single digits. It snowed more south of here and Tennesse is a mess. Not sure what to do now but was really looking forward to a week in Florida just cruising with no particular place to go.

You'll be fine. We got 7-8 inches here and the roads are already clear. You'll probably be covered in salt, but you won't have any problems.

I'm up in Rhode Island. It's been the most brutal winter from a snowfall point of view that I've ever seen. There's just no where left to put this crap and just keeps coming. My poor car is buried. Literally buried!

Maybe you east coast Camaro owners should start thinking about mounting a snow plow on the front of your cars.

I feel for you guys....

I understand how you feel about the weather being all messed up, we are going to hit the 80's this week and it is not even March!

Hopefully you have all season tires. Interstates should be clear. Just don't worry about starting out your trip with a clean car. Clean it when you get there. Enjoy the trip, it's just a car made to get you from point A to point B.

I'd rather have the snow. I know, weird. I just want to wake up one day to 3 feet of snow outside my door and be stuck inside.

Of course I'm also really hating my job right now. ha Oh well, it pays for car mods!

The car still has the stock Pirelli's and we will have to drive at least to Atlanta before seeing any temp's approaching 40.

The car is not driven in winter once salt hits the road, it is nice and warm in the garage under a cover right now. If we do make the trip the first stop in Florida would be a good hand car wash place for sure!

GO BIG BLUE!!!! (best post of the day)
