when you were raised in CA and now live in AZ that just looks dangerous to me. I lived in Boston for a while but when I lived there I used the subway 90% of the time

I envy you OP'er. Where I live, temps never go Below 20C and rarely to 15C. WE get rains once a week in winter if are lucky, and snow once every millennium

My 3GS has not seen snow this winter. The Tahoe gets around pretty easily.
No need to feel bad for us Yang, we had about 18 inches, it’s just flurries to us

I was down in NC a few year back in the winter, people in the south just don’t know how to drive in the snow and they are also not prepare for winter driving. Very few people have AWD and half of the people are driving around in bald or summer tires.
