Yea, I've been following the evening news and it sounds like all you mid-westies and east-coasties are getting hammered! I'll take the rain anyday over snow...

Good morning Gary! It's going to be alittle lonely here until more guys stubble across the site. How do you manage test drives in the snow? I don't do snow very well. We had a freak storm that dropped 10" about 3 weeks ago (we live 40 miles east of Sacramento in foothills) then the rain came and all we get now is fog. I drove my '55 into work yesterday and had to use the wipers (55 year old wipers suck).

We are on a main road,so test drives are not really an issue most times. This is really the worst weather we have had in many years and it is a pain in the rear keeping the lot plowed and the cars cleared of snow

Hi Gary! Little slow getting started this morning! The weather has my old bones really aching this morning and I still ave to go out in the cold!
Got groceries to buy, prescriptions to pick up plus have to get over clean the snow off the ElCamino and move it across the street where they already plowed so they don't get itchy and tow it on me!

Hi Gary! I'm in the house because the wind chill is -14° or something. Some of that 'Global Warming" going on here.

No way. We've had snow ON THE GROUND for 2 weeks now. No one can remember last time that happened. It does get cold here but not like this. Ok City had RECORD snow fall Xmas eve..... 14". That's the most since record keeping started. "Normally" one of those Artic fronts will blow through here and be gone in a couple of days. NOT like this winter. So, what brand do you sell? Looking at the news lately, I hope its Ford.

Used to be Chrysler Dodge,now strictly a used car center. But I still stock mostly cars from my favorite marque.

Hi Gary
Its cold down here too but no snow yet .Hopefully we wont get any .They closed the schools here because they thought it might snow today. Its a shame the college I work at didnt follow their lead and let me have a free day off with pay. The grocery stores around here are filled with people panicking over bread and milk.
