B) Greetings down in sunny Florida lol. Got the itch to use the new plow, I'm doing the snow dance but nothing but rain in our forcast :(

Makes my bones ache just thinkin about the stuff. I'm a sissy when it comes to cold weather, winds 15-20 mph. It was wonderful when I was a kid and we got out early from school sometimes. Probably 5 years ago I would ride my motorcycles in bad weather. The Harley only when it was cold and only around the block. But the GoldWing would get a 200 mile trip at night in any weather. For some reason i'm not accomplishing that anymore.

More power to ya!

Actually, back in the day, I lived in CT. Worked for a company that had 5 trucks contracted to the stae. Company only ran MACK.

My job was to make sure the trucks hit the road deady. Lite, fuel, sanders run and greased. Then I hopped in a front end loader and cleared parking lots. i was also the swing man if any drivers fell out on the highway.

I have had my share of snow.

Talk about sissy! It is 60 degrees and monsoon rain & wind here in PA and I don't even want to go out in it! I got all my parts for the CX but have no ambition to go out and get soaked putting it back together. Quite content taking my second cup o' coffee in the INDOORS.

I love Wyoming, it does get bad on 80 I've never ran it myself in the snow but I heard from a friend that the fire hydrants at the FMC mine are 15 feet in the air, thats alot of snow! I'm moving to Mount Charleston NV...at the peak of the mountain they get 25 plus feet of the white stuff on average. Best of both worlds though, drive 20 minutes down the mountain and its 60 degrees :thumb:

Hey Bigen, did they close 80? When I was out there last month we bunked up in Laramie...I had a slight leak in my exhaust elbow right under the sleeper so you know what that means...no heat while parked :pat: it was one chilly October night in cowboy country!
