Hey Connecticut, our everything hurts

Lots, thankfully light & fluffy. 3 hours shoveling.
One side of the driveway is flat, shoveling onto that side the pile is about 4' high. Well berm more than pile.
Other side of driveway is a hillside. Shovelings i had to throw it up about 8'. Thankfully fluffy snow.

I see the cracks in the hillside snow berm. Risk of avalanche moderate. Some years back I had that hillside come down.
My own personal avalanche. i hope these next two snows are light.

 

Hey guys, do you have suggestions on airbnbs or hotels around Stamford or anywhere else that is within an hour of New York City? Maybe in White Plains, NY?

I don't really care exactly where just as long as it's not in NYC or too expensive. I'll be there for 2 weeks, just need a reasonably priced place that is comfortable and not a dive.

TIA.

 

No snow here. Ugh, it's going to be an awful 81 degrees tomorrow. Another shorts and sandals day, bummer. But by this time next week, I'll be freezing my tail off in VT.

 

@Cativelense I believe you're close to NY? Anyone else?

@RachaelSP is a dear friend of mine, help her out my friends please

 

Morning everyone.

Happy Monday.

I'm close but don't really know of any. Sorry!

 

Any of the river towns up to cold spring is what I'd do, take the metro north into grand central instead of driving

 

Morning Connecticut

 

Question: does your miles to empty range change every time you fill up? Mine has consistently said 385 since i got the truck in June and this morning it said 417 and is going down and up at strange rates

 

Miles to empty? What is this sorcery you speak of? Where's the fun of "let's see how many miles we can go with the light on" when it guesses for you?

Update

Got my truck back today.
CRC rust preventive done.

Shop.manager said that no rust anywhere.

My truck was the second truck this week that had Fluid Film applied and he readily admits that , "that stuff works."

Again in my case I was treated very well and I got to drive sa 2021 Tacoma Access Cab SR5 for 3 day so I'm a happy camper
MIDDLETOWN TOYOTA in my case I don't have any problems with them.

If Matt is doing Fluid Film applications in the spring I get a touch up as I'm sure the dealer had to remove some FF to to the required work for the CRC.

Good morning

 

Morning everyone.

Happy Tuesday.

More snow...

 

Morning Connecticut

 

Why is "slower traffic keep right" as a concept so freaking difficult for some people to grasp?

 

Trust me, this is a thing in Pennsylvania and Jersey too...

My parents, my cousin, and I were driving up to Maine for vacation and the trip had just started; This was in the summer, probably 2016 or so, and we were somewhere in South Jersey if I remember correctly...

There was this woman in like a Kia Forte or a Nissan Sentra or something, and she was moseying along in the left lane; An NJ State Trooper ended up behind her and she seemed totally oblivious. My cousin and I had been watching a movie (possibly Sisters) in the back of my dad's SUV, and took our attention off the movie to watch this ditz along with my parents; So the trooper stays behind her for a good mile or so and then turns on the lights. We were all laughing so hard as this woman got pulled over, and that's how I learned that one could be pulled over for going too slow!

 

I find that "accidentally" drifting over onto the rumble strips does a fine job at clearing left lane traffic.

Someone was crawling doing 25 or so in the left lane of a 2 lane highway, but they had their hazards on so I guess that makes ot okay in their brain??? That's not even the only case... this morning

 

Everyday, everywhere i go someone is doing this. It seems like ever since they made drivers ed a mandatory "classroom" nobody teaches common sense driving. my personal favorite is cutting me off and then riding the brakes around every turn like they're lost!
