    I honestly hope we have another snow this winter here in TN. It was fun in the F-150, but anxious to see if the prerunner with some sand bags can handle it. :anonymous:

    I'm hoping for snow here in Vegas :fingerscrossed:. It's actually happened once in the 10 years I have lived here.

    They were saying on the news that my State has done away with road salt and is now strictly using the caustic brine solution, nothing like causing more corrosion.

    I can't wait, and I'm very jealous of you!

    There's talk of snow here tomorrow morning - we shall see...

    Yeah, it's funny how all the people from the states that don't get snow, want it. You guys can have as much of ours as you want. Let me know when the novelty wears off.

    having to live in michigan for 58 salt infused winters, i say bring it on! i have always had a 4x4,this year with a new taco. got one of the last 15s, it is a base with dunlop donuts. i was glad to see that they did ok, but i will still get some new tires. i always get a high rated snow type tire like a micheln, saving up as we speak. got the new truck rustproofed,paint protected,fluid film everywhere,locks hinges. we got 10", i live in the sw. mi. snowbelt,weather guesser says it will be gone by wed. can't wait for the "alberta clippers" to show up,for now its the bonus "lake effect". happy sledding.
