Vik are you coming in your car or the RX tomorrow? If you are in the SUV I may see if you can help me take the Desk to Urmil with me since I can only fit one piece in the Acura.
Probably the RX cause Rico's side skirts won't fit in the 2IS. I'll clean it out so we can fit the desk.

With my Blizzaks, driving in the snow has become A LOT less of a live or die situation with the GS430.

How did it go for you guys this morning? I was worried at times because the car is lowered and I was plowing the streets like whoa. I should be getting paid for this isht!

Mike how did you do? Your GS is slammed! Did you get stuck?

I am not even going to bother taking out the GS today, I will be moving around town in the RX. Funny thing (as I am typing this) saw this lady take a turn a bit too fast near the street in front of my house and spin out in her Mustang, I think she hit the curb pretty hard too.

Just take it easy where ever your traveling.
