Been snowing since yesterday, and it's still snowing! Hard to tell from the pics how deep it is--That's what she said

Cool looking Monte!!!

You definitely got more snow than us so far. Your my north Jersey snow gauge brah. I have to fill in and dispatch the trucks tomorrow, so it will help. I know I got at least 3 or 4 trucks to send up there from your area up into Spring Valley, NY.

I finally finished shoveling. We got at least 6 to 8" of snow.

The Monte Carlo is a piece of crap! The does have nice rims and tires on it though.

YES!!! Eat a shitload of pork and beans topped off with a half dozen hard boiled eggs and go build a hoegloo!!! **** yeah Tony. BTW, you never said how many inches of snow you’ve got so far. The last time we had a good snowstorm like that a few years ago, we got freezing rain on top after snowing for a few days. I was still driving around but it was tricky. Then, since we don’t use salt here and there’s nothing else that really works, our city got crippled because it didn’t melt for over a week, maybe two. The ice ruts on the streets and highways was crazy, you almost couldn’t change lanes on the highways because you would be in a huge ice rut.
Edit: I saw the snow depth in your last post.

ive got over a foot. just took my hoe through some deep stuff. even on lame tires, she just drove on trough like nothing. how deep you ask? i was hoping i didnt rip off my lower air damn deep. well over 2 foot deep worth of plowed lot where they turned past, but never cut through the burms of snow. good news is the air dam is still there lol

I used to love plowing through the snow in 4wd. They're like tanks!

 

[Tonyrodz]

I'd love to test these tires out in the snow.

when i drive it in deep snow on crap tires it really makes want to go buy a used snow plow and some BFG's and start cashing in. with the customer list a friend and i had, we'd make a easy 10 grand off this storm. then i think about all the ******** that comes with plowing, and i sleep well at night.

I used to plow for the state DOT. I loved it! I was the guy slinging snow towards you if your window was open! I'd down shift and the salt auger would speed up, throwing salt far and hard! And there was usually little stones or pebbles in it. Yeah--I was 20-21 and an *******!

 

[Scottydoggs]

i plowed for like 25 years. ive had enough.

I def hear that! I used to plow in north Jersey.

I used to design snow plows. Does that get me into this club?

 

[Tonyrodz]

Absolutely! As long as you didn't design the couplings or the lines that constantly leaked hydraulic fluid!

as long as you worked on fisher plows lol

if them quick connects rip apart, thats called user error lol you learn what breaks pretty fast, then you buy two of what ever just broke, cause you now know its a weak link.

my fisher plow was a first gen minute mount, the pump mount to the frame broke on me once, so i had a spare one in the glove box year round.
