New England B.S. Thread

Which ones did you get again (pattern and color)? I love my driving lights in the snow. They do a much better job cutting the snowfall than the headlights do.

 

Oh yeah... SNOW


Had a blast on the drive in today. The Bridgestones actually did really, really well. I got a little frisky for one stretch and ended up sliding sideways down the road... fortunately it straightened out and I was able to take it as a reminder to slow down

 

My PIAA 510 Ion Yellows are amazing in the snow. They cut right through everything.

 

Can't wait to see how my hella 700s with hids are. I'm to lazy to do this retro I just wanna pnp hid

 

Super white driving pattern . I have them aimed down like fogs . I'm sure I could get a lot more distance out of them but I don't want to blind the shit out of people.

Ya I'm happy with them . Just need to adjust the passenger one alittle .

SNOW DAY


Blueberry pancakes with the grandkids care of my wife ....

We "PUSHED" hard for 4 days and gave the "commuters" free reign to wreck each other instead of "playing".......today..

 

Fun drive in today..fkn circus. No sooner do I get here then the wife calls and says she can't get out. Uh, really you have 4wd and I don't so how did I get out?

 

I cleared my driveway this morning at 5 AM and Kendra said we have 8 - 10 in. snow drifts across the drive way already. Looks like i'll be doing it again tonight.

 

I just called a restaurant to see if they're open and the person who answered the phone knew exactly who I was lol... Mind you I've been there once and don't know of anyone I know working there. Creepy...

Convo went like this.

Me: hey just checking to see if you're open today.
Them: we are till 8. are you coming in today cam?
Me:...

Twilight zone.

 

I have over a foot here and it's still snowing .

 

CALLER ID?

 

That's what I was thinking, but my caller ID says John on it haha

 

Just a dusting on my truck. I was out in stoughton,Sharon,foxboro, And that area around 3am-5 these tires are hands down better than BFG

 

Rant Time:

I seriously have doubts for the future of our society after driving into work today (I always knew were getting dumber, but the idiots on the roads this morning really confirmed my beliefs). As a whole, we are becoming more intellectual and can be called "book smart" but the street smarts and common sense have completely gone by the wayside. First, if you are not comfortable driving in the snow, stay home. I was behind a lady in a Toyota Prius who was going 15-20 mph my entire trip into work. Normally I would pass her but I witnessed her get stuck once on a hill and offered to push her up it for the sake of being a human being. She took my offer and I used a folded up heavy winter blanket as a barrier between our bumpers and slowly pushed her over the crest. Not an issue with me because these things happen, but she should of known that the hills on that road are quite steep and her little car with the summer tires on it would not fare well.

Now, she continues to drive along merrily at a clip of 15-20 mph which causes her to almost not make it over every hill we encounter, but she also has to come to a complete stop at the crest, judge the descent, and proceed to ride her brakes the whole way down. The problem here is that some people are smart and realize they cannot stop on the upslope of a hill and just continue driving; her stopping at the top creates a line of people behind us who have to stop before the crest due to her idiocy. Everyone of them gets stuck on the hill and just spin their tires trying to get going again - I saw one poor guy do a complete 180 while standing still...As I get closer to work, I have to gain about 1000' on a slow hill and I pass this prius lady who proceeds to flip me off for reasons I do not know.

But the real doozie comes as I almost get to the office. Two kids are dressed up with their backpacks on waiting at the end of a subdevelopment for what I can only assume is the bus. If they were in elementary school, I would let it go because it is up to the parents to make sure they know if school is cancelled; these two kids had to be in middle school based on the time of morning. I clearly remember the days of waking up early (way before I normally would) and staring at the news station as the school closings passed in alphabetical order. Now from what I hear and read, families expect an automatic call from the school telling if they need to pack a lunch or go back to bed. All I can do is just shake my head.

Zach, I feel your pain... I had to laugh this morning as I passed an M3 with big, fat ole rear tires just doing everything he could just to accelerate to a crawl and then try to keep it in a straight line.

 

My bitch is I was in the city this am and every pedestrian felt like walking out in front of me and not just at lights and crosswalks. They would walk out from between cars and not even look cause they had their hoods up or hats pulled down due to wind. PAY THE FUCK ATTENTION TO WHAT YOU ARE DOING

 

Billy, pedal on the right. Thin the herd, it will be better for all in the long run
