drive home was literally fine, no traction issues, but certainly some clearance problems. wet and sticky snow introduced a problem I’ve not had before, my shifter was getting jammed up, I assume snow smashed up into the shifting rods.

sweet new extended lip design

good drinking game: take a shot every time you see someone who has slid of the road, take a shot every time you pass a terrified SUV driver

I was SOOOOOOO drunk by the time I got home

“I was SOOOOOOO drunk by the time I got home”

what is it with oppo lately and ppl being idiots? I’m assuming your being hypothetical, but don’t write it so you actually sound like you were drinking.

Holy cow! You’re really getting dumped on. No moisture at all in Southern CO, but we could possibly get some rain today. We are supposed to get snow Saturday.

Good for the moisture, but blizzard conditions not good. We definitely need some moisture.

This is a bit of an off comment: I like your car. Seems clean.

Champiro Ice Pro. They are NOISY. but the wear is good and the grip in snow is excellent. Essentially I chose them based on price and availability.

You are probably the one person that even thought of taking that seriously.

I went out earlier to get bagels from Rosenberg’s, and was disappointed I couldn’t get enough slippage to do donuts in an empty lot (too much slush, not enough snow). Now, I’m pretty sure I’d high center the car about 3 feet from the curb. Stupid work made me miss the sweet spot!

Well I’m stuck in West Texas for a while.

MonkeePuzzle > Danger

hopefully somewhere nice, decent hotel or such, and not on a foldout at the inlaws

MonkeePuzzle > TeamClearCoat

yeah, it’s plenty deep. more fun in like an off roading slow and steady kind of way, than a sports car drifting and donuting kind of way now

Haha not this time. Sleep Inn & Suites. Work is paying. Enjoying a real Midland dust storm, reliving Friday Night Lights and No Country for Old Men.

UPS is Loveland was told by the police to not work, so I got to drive around helping people get unstuck, mostly my fellow employee’s, drove around in a circle around the building decided I’m not gonna get stuck after driving through fresh powder, then helped 3 trucks unstuck themselves, haha

I did a few laps around my neighborhood, as a service to keep it clear.... ok I admit it I just like driving in snow

MonkeePuzzle > bob and john

and the last oppo post that advertised drinking and driving was a civic also, just my people I guess. (although mine was a joke, the other persons was not, i think)

bob and john > MonkeePuzzle
03/23/2016 at 22:26

yea. and the ONE dude who I knew that DID drink and drive (no longer a friend) had a civic as well. funny enough, ALSO an EK hatch

MonkeePuzzle > bob and john
03/23/2016 at 22:46

drinking and civic ownership must go hand in hand, how else can we explain all those terrible modifications!?

One of my Jeep friends texted me and asked me to do that so he could get out of the neighborhood (he was at his parents house in my neighborhood). His Jeep’s front diff is fucked up, and it has shitty tires for snow, so..rwd only shitty tire Jeep, haha.
