Just got power back. Mother nature Douched 25 or so inches on us. I must say even though im lowered 2/2 i didnt have much problems getting around. A lot is well done in 2wd. I did get stuck once but that was due to me high centering my self on a hidden ice block from a plow when i was trying to turn around for these pics.

Looks like fun. Any snow drifting?

Yup hence a most of 2wd comment. What i dont like about this truck is with stability disengauged. It dosent fully disengauge it. after a certian rpm or slippage it still partially engauges.

My 1st pic kinda reminds me of a Yukon man with a partial frozen beard lol. It was funny to see peoples reactions drifting around corners. People probably thought i got a call or was going into persuit. Pushbar came in handy again. Heard people say, hey this cop is offering to push us out even though i was wearing my Honda Uniform jacket lol

Some around town pics

What do you mean "partially engauges"? When i shut mine off by holding the button down for 5 seconds or whatever the timeframe is I can do donuts and stuff all day long without anything engauging on the Burb. That kinda ruins the fun a little bit :)

On mine the light will flash but u never held mine in. Ill leave to try that and see of that does any thing. When I try to do a donut I can whip it around like once and then the rpms lower. Same thing when I was stuck earlier. I can romp it but it would not let me rev over 3k or so.

Looks fun! Now I see that people like you actually use your winter setup.
If that much snow hit Texas, there would be enough salt on the road to turn a GM truck into rust waste.

I didn't know that there was a different mode you could engage! Learn something new everyday.

Yep, hit it once and the DIC say traction control off. But if you hit and hold it for five seconds or so your DIC will also tell you that stabilitrak is off and that's what you want. I did this earlier in the winter and got the burb doing donuts really well :rocking: this also proves that we never really grow up :lol:
