I'll be lowering mine come spring time, so next winter is going to suck.

 

I got a better idea; buy a Toyota Forklift (So you can have your tC and forklift all on the same Toyota Financial bill, lol) and put forks under tC's frame. Slowly raise the car above the snow and slowly move the car into uncovered spot.

 

:p, lowering wont be that bad, I go to school in buffalo, ny. a one or two inch snow isnt going to save you from 2 feet of snow :p

 

i hear you on this winter storm, I had to use my car as a plow this morning too... worked pretty good though 1st > reverse > 1st a little more > reverse haha

 

My car gets bogged down by as little as 4 inches, and I have to either back up and get more speed, or sit and burrow my wheels through, maxing out 1st.

On another note, has anybody got their speedo up to 127 on a patch of ice? I did. Yes, I realize if I had caught traction i'd probably be needing new tires, but this patch was huge, no chance of catching.

 

ujm.. Tropical Weather here :D

 

that is one of the many reason i parked my car for the winter and picked up a winter beater~Irwin

 

yeah i got stuck so many times today that i think i brote the plastic cover underneath the driver side engine compartment. i did so many burn outs today it was awsome.and my girls tc, her lower grill is pushed in from the snow also. cant wait for tommorowmorning

 

I wish I could afford an AWD truck. Beat up or not.

 

i almost got stuck in the snow yesterday but dig your self out of the snow first

 

it sure doesn't help any.

1-the neg camber and maybe even toe in (esp on the rear) makes the car loose as heck on snow.
2-more snow gets stuck in the wheel wells and underbody (i cleaned out mine tonite, its crazy how much snow is stuck in the wheel wells. Even one of my driveshafts is totally caked in ice). this inhibits the wheels ability to do its job, and basically coats the tire with snow with every rotation.
3. at stock height the suspension works as designed, absorbing the imperfections of the snow and maintaing stability. lowered, there isn't as much suspension travel, so its like driving on ice.

believe me, i drove at stock height and lowered in the snow, lowered is MUCH worse.

tip #1: start in 2nd gear.

 

snow? what's that...

I hear you man

 

I'm thinking on living on Orlando, is it good over there?

 

Wow thats alot of snow you guys have there. We have had a pretty tame winter this year...did get a bunch of ice yesterday though.

 

damn i love my garage ;)

 

x2

although you guys are going to be cold as hell come friday!!! all you need is some rain and..... who am i kidding!!!!!

 

Ohhh noes! Well, you are in Rochester. =(

 

Yea gotta love the snow. I just got my SW 2 weeks ago and it seemed like 2 days after getting it home snow started to fall like crazy. Prior to me buying it, we had like no snow at all this year. Now the crap wont stop coming! Hope we dont get too much more, I'm liable to lose it if it blends in to well.

 

lol....it's a lot of snow... good luck.

 

i'm glad i live in da south! lol .5 inchs of snow and ppl go madd!
