    That is true, had lots of fun with the truck this year. Owning 2gen truck ... FTW
    Probably Saturday going to hit trail again. Drag kids on sleds behind the truck. I love the look of people driving full size trucks seeing Tacoma disappearing off the road, those chickens are afraid to follow. :D
    Whats the point of owning big truck if you have to stay on the road.

    Wish I had pics of mine on Tuesday. We got 20" where I'm at in Oklahoma, and ice under that. Truck has done awesome so far and I have helped pull out several people. Although I did get sucked into a ditch with about 3' of snow... Almost got out but then it shifted more and I couldn't budge. Luckily a friend was about and able to pull me out. btw Duratracs rock in this stuff!

    We ended up with 13 inches here in central Illinois. Mine stayed in the garage all warm and cozy for a day and a half.
    Bad thing is on my way to work this morning the fan only runs on high.
    I guess she wanted to play in the snow.

    Oh yeah I forget about RI, yup you in the red too....that is a lot of snow :eek:
    Ah the roof rakes are the best tool eva!

    Yeah the snows just keep coming snow snow snow

    Where ya putting all that white gold Dave?

    Come on up to Vermont (not Woodford on the Weekends) but the NEK or Groton area off I91 the trails were beautiful before this last storm they will be primo now. My neighbor Todd and I are heading out tomorrow before the trails get trashed over the weekend. You can basically pick any part of the state right now and its prime conditions. Border to Border ride 4500 miles of trails...

    :pray:

    Fortunately, I'm in the country, plenty of room to pile it up. I was in Providence last night, driving in the city is a challenge. You can't see around the corners and the secondary roads still have snow on them. I saw a pile in a parking lot that was at least 30 feet.

    Shame. Is Miami anywhere near OKC? I've only been to OK once, and that was to Tulsa.

    Looks nice Judy, about the same down here. We've had roofs collapsing all over the state for the past week or so, been the lead story on local news every night. Yesterday an indoor moto-cross track collapsed while people were on the roof shoveling. Thankfully, no injuries. I guess the houses and businesses here just weren't built to take this kind of a winter.
