My wife and I are going to visit my in-laws and they just got over a foot of the white stuff. I now get to test out how these cars drive in the snow. Thank god we have winter rims and tires that my service department will put on for me! Anybody have any experiences driving in the snow to share?

there's really not much to driving in snow...Just keep good distance and drive slowly.Oh... don't forget to have winter windshield wash. ------------I am seriously thinking of buying a set of Vibe floor mats, the cheapie ones I have just can't keep anything in!

I had heard that Edmonton got snow; I didn't realize it had gone as far as S'toon... Awesome picture in your signature. I loved living in Saskatoon, just wish it had been in the summer. I was never lucky enough to have a summer job there while I was in university.We've had snow on the ground since before Hallowe'en, so I'm glad that it's getting spread around.

Since he did say "Cool Mod". lol/heheOtherwise he might be talking about the extension cord being plugged into the block heater. But that would not be cool now would it. Ooohhhh. I get it now. A little slow this morning. How else would you plug in your block heater other than using an extension cord? You can't actually get that close to a plug, can you?

I have the Frosty Vibe too and that's exactly what my car looked like this morning. I've decided that I'm moving to a warmer climate, I'm already sick of the cold weather and snow! I say that every year at this time, but here I am, still in Montana!

Seeing how your user name is a lot like mine in format I am working up north now, I only go back to Saskatoon occassionally.

See, I'm not the only one who's revived my login name. You spend SO many years with that as your "identity" that it is like some weird second name... Anyway, there's a very light falling of snow right now. Good thing my Vibe is in the garage.

No snow here yet this winter, but since we had some decent amounts last winter and I have a frosty Vibe as well I thought I'd share this one too.

Wow... now, that's FROSTY!Hopefully I can find a decent place with a garage next time I move, which is happening soon. My old Dodge Spirit always had a garage but my brand-new 2003 Vibe has to stay outside...
