    Snowmobile M3

    A suprise winter storm put almost 3 feet of snow on the ground in under 36 hours at Lake Arrowhead where I was staying this weekend.



    Living in LA, I have pretty much zero experience driving in the snow, but with a set of chains on the rears the car did very well, even with fresh ES-100s ice skating around in front.

                        Snow doesn't ruin cars guys....road salt does. The trick is finding an area that uses sand, unlike Toronto where my 100% garage kept car is still rusting to its death.

                              actaully parking in a garage is bad for cars in that weather. the salt/synthetic are neutralized in ice. When it thaws it starts tearing into cars.

                              Those only work on ice anyway. Snow is best plowed and laid sand.

                              Adam, you need me to plow a drive for you so you can get out?
