Default RE: check my pics now..

I don't mind cold, and I don't mind snow, it's that freezing rain that is ticking me off.

That stuff is the worst! Especially when you have nothing to scrape it off with other than your fingernails! Man does that hurt getting that stuff stuck between your fingernail and skin! I've always felt like give us all the snow but keep the rain! It's also easier to work in the snow than the rain outside as well!

I'd never do it with the Jag, but I had to take a ball peen hammer and tap the ice off my windshield on my Ford Ranger a few years back when I had it because it was so cold it simply wouldn't come off. It broke off in 4" chunks and was practically glued to the vehicle.

More pics of the SC :drool.

Saw a dude in Ann arbor w/the licence plate "soarer", guess he did the engine swap!

Put a 2jz in there...and then you'll boot all around town.
Shesh, get those cars inside a garage man. I hate when I see beautiful cars like that outside in the elements.

+1 with the freezing rain. I had to deal with that this weekend. Not fun waiting on the car to defrost that stuff.

That's not just the mondeo...most fords in general have a good heat/cold system in the cars. I noticed it in our semi's as well which are made by sterling (ford components pretty much everywhere)

Just snowed 8" or so. The car has been in the garage for an hour or so now, wish I took a pic when I just pulled it in. Here you go though!

Still no sign of snow in the big apple! Looks like you'll have to cancell the competition until next year

Quite simple.... 31 yrs old, married ten yrs, but NO KIDS.

Plenty of free cash from the kid fund to play with

That and I own www.lextech.org which is an engineering firm I founded 6 yrs ago.
