We got 1.5 inches of powder snow early in the week and guess what...The Federal Gov
DID NOT shut down and the schools were open (most of them at least). There is hope in the air that we can acutally handle snow/winter/Global Warming (oops I mean "Global Change" as it has been too cold to feel any warming around here). This stuff was so light I used my backpack blower to clear the sidewalks, driveway, and the cars. Everything looks nice and tidy. Even blew off a few hidden leaves on the porch.
Meanwhile the X5 has been great in the stuff. Crabing up hill with the tires clawing away at the ice and snow has me laughing out loud watching the traction light blinking away as the snow flys. Love this SAV.
Now I have to clean off that crap called calcium cloride (Salt Brine) that they bathe everything with.
