    FYI: Google *owns* Waze. The two are essentially the same, run from the same database. The differences are all cosmetic, aside from the fact that you can point out speed traps and such on waze (I hear that they're about to add that feature to the mainstream gmaps application).

    I know they're owned by Google but they're not at all the same.

    I know your a member of the paw patrol but the snowmobiles turned my truck around like a top with a method know as pulling . I'm may be a piece of shit but my truck is a truck and they moved it .

    Speaking as a CANADIAN, now is not a good time to dig to China.
    Not since we backed up the US and arrested a major telecom exec and started a hostage war with China.... which is now starting to EXECUTE Canadians (even if he does deserve it).

    My only worry is that trudope is going to be too much of a sissy and hand over the bitch in exchange for the junkie's life.

    Its time to actually stand up to China. They're like the fucking BORG.

    I'm pretty sure, sand you want to be on top hence the airing down. Snow you want to be through the snow to the ground hence skinny fully inflated skinniest tires (unless you're a snowmobile).

    Depends on the snow.
    If its a groomed snowmobile trail, chances are that you do NOT want to get to the bottom of it.

    And airing down isn't just about altering flotation, its also about changing the size and shape of the contact pad. The problem with snow is that its associated with ice, and small contact pads get you nowhere on ice.

    It wasn't stupid at all. Give yourself a break. It's called exploring. It's why we venture into these areas to begin with. As long as you are prepared for worst case scenarios then enjoy taking that road less traveled.

    I don't know if that was a groomed trail or not. Around here, groomed trails are blocked with a berm or otherwise marked as such. I've been on roads that snowmobiles were using, but weren't groomed. They don't flatten the snow out very well :).

    Since it didn't look like a restricted trail, just a snow covered mountain road, then I don't see why any snowmobilers would have any right to complain. They are often jerks as well out tearing around and messing up the place.

    If I was a Chinese snowmobiler, would I still be welcome here?
