Uhhhh....yeah...SNOW....so who drove their G this morning?

So Boston and some surrounding areas got hit with a little snow last night and early am hours this morning. I woke up around 7:00 shoveled my stairs and part of my driveway. As usual my street doesn't get plowed or salted making me wonder how the main roads are . After deciding to bring the Civic out or the G I said I'll bring the G out it can't be that bad , I mean my neighbor has a 5-series on 20's and he seemed to make his way up the street perfectly fine. I made it to the highway perfectly fine and the commute was average- stop and go traffic, @ssholes on cell phones just cutting people off with no signalls, SUV's doing like 100mph because they think there the $hit, people picking their noses, doing their makeup, reading the newspaper. Have a safe commute G drivers

I live in Brooklyn, dropped on a z suspension, RWD, on 18x8.5/9.5 rims. The snow sunday morning was amazing, definatly no more than maybe 2" at most, but I drove around in my G all day perfectly fine. Granted I don't think there was ever a period of time where the SLIP light was off for more than 2 minutes lol

I guess driving RWD in the snow just takes some getting used to. This is my first winter with rims and a drop in the snow, however normally I am very used to driving in the snow.

I drove my car in this morning no biggie.

Yesterday was crazy though saw 3 accidents in one stretch of RT80 between Paterson and Willowbrook mall.

A Infiniti G20 almost took out a trooper(Attending to accident on the left lane so it was closed) and myself(middle lane) thank god I saw the troopers face and knew what he was looking and stopped to let the a$$hole through.
