It breaks my heart to have to drive my car in the snow. Due to circumstances I cannot buy and insure a suitable beater right now for the daily 100-mile commute.
We've only had one or two really bad storms this year in western PA, but a lot of the PITA inch or two per day stuff.
It's funny that you mention the Rangers, mustangII460. The last bad storm we had, we got about eight inches right before rush hour and it caught the salt crews with their pants down. I was following a 2WD Ranger that day and we were easily the two having the biggest problems. I tried to leave some space between us so I could keep momentum, but he slowed so bad going up about a 6% grade that we both almost got stuck. Inched my way up that hill sidewinder style...and wanted to pull over for a cigarette once I got to the top!
