    yeah, no work for me today either. Houston looks like they closed all the roads that have overpasses.

    yup, it sleeted here for a while before it started snowing. I took the truck out around the block but ive mostly been driving the wifes h3 :eek:
    other than the rear doors freezing shut on it and not being able to open them its actually done very well.

    Yep, PreRunners FTW! Great mileage and capable for 99% of the Texas weather. I'm looking into a set of chains for the other 1%.

    The truck was more than capable in the snow this morning and has been handling the ice lately as well as can be expected of a lighter truck.

    Chains!

    I could drive all over town with problems, but I have to back up, uphill into my garage...

    As jacked up as it sounds, I could back up on the ice, but ended up stuck against the curb this morning after the snow.

    Thankfully I have a couple sets of chains. Took about two minutes and it was like having 4WD!

    I'm thinking ARB Air locker so as I can get the bigger air compressor. I'll run the lines so as to have air in the bed for work and keep enough hose on the truck so as to refill the tires if need be. I'm a little nutty about everything having multiple purposes. The air in the bed would be good for work when I need to blow out a computer or such.

    The only pic I had time to get today - it was all work and not much time for play today. We had a long week to make up for.

    First attempt of getting my truck out of the garage I got stuck on a snow drift next to the house, the right front wheel couldnt get over it. And I couldnt pull in cause of ice, ended up pushing while my dad steered. If I go out I take my dads sequoia, it does great with traction control and stability control. Today I took my moms X5 and did some sweet donuts, things insane with AWD. Made another attempt to take my truck out, got stuck on a little incline, decided to turn back but on my way home I did some crazy ass donuts. Gotta love the LSD diff
