Yeah you're right. I need some more of the basics, it would be great to have an impact, that would make things so much more convenient.

That little bit of frosting won't hurt anybody. Salt, on the other hand will corrode your belly. If there is salt on the roads, then you should pack her away, or grab some undercoat (depends on how clean your underbelly is), or have the underbelly flush-washed. Don't you just love the winter????

It was 72* on Christmas Eve here in southern Arizona.

Harbor Freight is good for a one time tool in some cases.

I will drive my SS in the Rain, Snow or whatever if it can make it I will drive it. if it is too deep out I will stay home and not drive at all. I love my car but it is meant to be driven. I am splitting time commuting a couple days a week in my S10 the rest in the Camaro because it handles better than the pickup.

Cleared up around 45 minutes after, but yes, It was quite muggy that morning

Snow??? Hmm, isn't that something we have every 10 years around here?? Yea, yea, Im sure it is. All we ever see is rain, rain, rain!! Oh and 99% humidity! Btw, that red toolbox is the exact same one I have (uh Had), it's gone now, Harvey got it, and all my tools with it. I used to be a GM tech, a lot of my expensive (snap_on) tools went with it....5 ft of water in the garage.
