Huh? There hasn't been any snow or weather that would prohibit travel yet. If what little bit there has been is going to keep you from traveling, maybe North Dakota is not for you.

Also, a couple of guys with computer/electrical skills got hired. These big companies are looking for more than just operators/ drivers at these job fairs. Market any skill set you have to them!! You still will be working for a great company with great pay and benefits and in some cases not have to work out in the cold.

Yeah I'm from Georgia and never have either and own a civic. Never use your cruise, drive slow and give yourself lots and lots of room to slow down( with very gradukal braking). It took me about five mins of 85 North out of Dickinson to realize if you don't respect these roads you will get killed on them.

I am from Cali and have mucho exoerience driving in snow and let me tell you I drive so slow. If I know a semi is in my vicinity I will find a way to get away from it. If the super race car driver is around me I will get away from it. I drive at my own pace even if it takes me hours to get to a five mile away place, lol......

socal, hope tomarrow is a day full of possibilities for you!
