You're talking about snow, right?

Hell yes! Come see me for a deal on a nice new hot tub?

Well, I saw my first few ditch divers today. Three pickups were on their side on the way into work. And no, I wasn't one of them!

Hey now! Actually, I have an AWD CR-V. The wife has the big Ram truck. I had her put a couple hundred pounds of sand in the bed of it today after I saw the Glenn this morning.

Did you figure out what tires to buy? One of these days I'll get some studded tires. I'll keep checking craigslist for some.

It looks like I'm going to put some of these on my CR-V:

Tyres Nokian Hakkapeliitta 5 - www.iTyre.com

It's going to cost me a grand but it's better than wrecking. I don't even want to think of how much the 20 inchers on my wife's truck are going to cost.

My boss swears by those tires and says they're the best snow tire he's ever had.

I had the general manager of Continental Auto Group in my showroom and he said he puts them on the cars of every member of his family. Further research confirmed that they are the best that money can buy. Considering that I have a munchkin, money is no object when it comes to safety.

I like the look of those. I still have another season of life left in the tires on Maddie, the Jeep GC. Reddie, the Dodge Ram, needs a block heater first and foremost. Thank you for the link, Satch.

No problemo. They're a bit spendy but every single last review places them as the best to be had.
