NO ZOMGXB DO NOT leave your hood open in the rain....cause with your luck it will turn to freezing rain and you will have another ice related incident
You REMEMBER that?
Great, JUST the legacy I want to leave!

Though you're probably right - something stupid will happen. And then I'll be up here posting like "NESTING BIRDS HAVE MOVED INTO MY ENGINE COMPARTMENT...NOW WHAT?"

It took a minute to figure out what was wrong. Once we did we tried pretty unsuccessully to remove the mud. A slow drive home later I had to remove all 4 wheels and remove the mud
