I should also mention... I made it all the way home with only a few problems.. until I pulled onto my street and promptly got stuck 10 feet from my driveway. Thanks to the kids across the street who were building an igloo for getting me out. and then refusing any money as a thankyou

My kid anticipates 12" in NYC, for $16/day he landed in a parking garage. Worth it!

Alternate parking every day with that amount of snow? There's a waiting list at his apartment for a spot inside, but he's on the list. $250/month to be inside? I didn't pay that for an apartment!

Got a half hour's use out of the snowblower before the drive gear popped off the axle again. This is an annual occurrence. I've welded the thing at least half a dozen times but it's hard to get a clean weld on a 1963 snowblower with the axle buried up inside the frame.

I hate winter.

In reply to 914Driver:

Yeah, it depends on where you are in the boros. I didn't have a problem when I was in Queens and the Bx. The parking situation is one of the reasons I never considered Manhattan to live.

He's in Forest Hills.

Averaging $100/night in tips, yeah, worth it.

We have about 18"+ here in Nottingham, Pa. Focus was getting around just fine, on my way back from tearing it up on some four wheelers.

The local NBC affiliate just got a new reporter from Tampa FL, so where do they put her?

Down a hill, on a sled in the middle of the blizzard!

Cute girl and everything but her name's Porsha....

The answer to the snow is NOT Miata. BTW. I left the windshield wipers up to keep them from sticking to the windshield. Can you see them? Neither can I.

Its actually pretty good in the snow, rear drive with the engine over the drive wheels just like an old beetle. Like any small car it doesn't do so well when its piled this high, not so much for traction just can't clear the stuff. They still havent plowed our development so I probably cant get it out in the morning unless they do. Guess I'll be taking the Tahoe.
