More ice and snow...Yippeeeeeee

Well to make you all feel better...I'll take my motorcycle for a ride tomorrow. :bowdown :hide :yah
 
I tried to get Deb's Fucos out of the garage the other night to go get the mail. Got about 3' out and the car bottomed out in the drift. Had to really work it to get it back into the garage but managed.

She drove it to work yesterday and called me when she arrived. Said that the car drove horrible and wanted to pull bad to the right. When she got home last night I went out, jacked the car up and pulled the front tires. The snow had gotten packed into the front suspension and froze solid! Fired up the convection heater and got it all cleaned up. She drove the car today and it's back to normal.

That's the first time I've ever come across that one!

Hey Mikey.....

You most likely caused that trying to go get the mail....lol

The problem of snow packed wheels was a daily thing for us during the winters in Iowa when I was growing up. So glad I am out of that stuff now.....plus my back gets real bad in the cold.......

Absolutely caused by the attempt at getting the mail. Tires full of snow I'm used to, frozen packed snow in the suspension is the new part!

+1, but no motorcycle here anymore, so I guess I keep driving the mustang.

Pretty cool....wonder why they never caught on...Midlife, can you tell us why they didn't sell?

There was no air compressor large enough to get those tires up to 600 psi.
 
I got home from work last night about midnight. The snow was coming down heavy. My son and his wife were over and blocking the garage so I had to park out front. Four inches of snow greeted me this morning.
