    My lil putt putt don't like snow over 6"with these tires! I need new snows, But the income tax check is a few weeks out.

    Once all this snow stops, The check will come in, But even then I hear there's a back log on certain sizes. Wanna bet mines one of them! :eek:

    I most likely dont get the gas mileage you do, but 4 wheel drive is a must around here if you want to make it work on a regular basis and in 1 piece. Smart move to say safe bud. :thumbs:

    My next one might be a all wheel. The Escape gets pretty close to the mileage my Fusion gets.

    My son will get the Fusion next fall as he turns 16. It will have close to 100K but at least we know its been cared for. So I'll suffer with buying a new one! ;) :whistle:

    Shhh, Don't tell them! :zip:

    Truck usually goes with the boss as she lives closer to her job than I do.. I got the putt putt for gas mileage as I drive 25 plus one way. She just started her new job, So I'll let her use the pickup(AKA she(the boss) is taking the truck I can walk if need be).

    Late night after a great game. Now its time to pay the bills and save the vacation time for summer. Storm started too late here to call it, but we are a hearty bunch and this is New England. Deal with it. Last Tuesday was the first time in 20 years that I stayed home for a storm-but we were officially closed.

    Actually, I dont expert the road techs to be out there (I just finished texting with the Service Manager and told him to play it safe and do whatever they feel they need to) and it will most likely not be a full day at work. We will see.

    Exactly what I thought. If I get a stove for this place, that shed will be taken apart & re-assembled closer to the back door.......should be able to get 2, maybe 3 tons in it.
    Getting a 12 x 16' shed this spring so I can get all my stuff outta storage.

    We have not had much snow here only 5 inches or so, but It sure is cold. Many nights in the single digits with the wind chill. I doubled the bags burned in January. Stay warm my friends, we are down another month and creeping slowly towards spring.
