    Don't see a whole lot of them running around town, my guess would be its risky to run it with snow loading. They are cool, but it doesn't seem worth the cost.

    ya. i’m looking at getting one. only time it would have snow on it is WHEN we get snow. also when i go to WNY. also i try and clean all the snow off hood/roof before i go any where. i HATE when i’m driving down the road and big pieces of snow fly off the car/truck in front of me and hit me.

    lol. i can see like 2’ over night being a pita to clean off but i’m talking about cleaning off any where from 3” to 8” i usually start the car/truck and clean it off while it is warming up. also i have seen people open their door and have snow fall in the seat.

    Snow falling on the seat when opening your door is a sign of fun driving ahead.

    In Anchorage? A good high for us would be 70-75. An average sunny day would be in the 60s though. But the sun hasn't made many appearances the past few summers, so I can't really remember.

    :) shorts all year round, it's one of the few benefits of extreme frostbite. I think the coldest temp I've been in sandals (that I actually thought to check the temp) was -32F working at the airport.

    I think you'll find your BA-ness doesn't get you far in this thread haha. It's pretty easy for us northern guys to one-up that one. You'll not outdo an Alaskan with cold weather talk from Tennessee lol

    Now that I no longer have classes, I think I'll take my first day of graduated life to inspect my brake pads and rotors finally. Then try to convince someone to chip in to replace them as a Christmas gift, lol.
