coldweather has it'spro's and cons. cold weather+300whp = lots of 4 wheel burn out'sif im on the gas. and with brand new $600 snow tires, i mustconstantly hold myself back from indulging in that kind of fun
.that and having only about 4" of ground clearance sucks at times.. it was 15 degree's last night and the car pulls like all hell.. that and we've gotten over 2 feet of snow. even with that 2 feet of snow on the ground w/ 4" of ground clearance, snow tires + Quattro = HEAVEN! lots of donut's and LOTS of snow lodged in every crevese underneath my car[8D].. but everyone else is afraid to drive in the snow, i love it! and look forward to it!

+1 you said it! the only snow we've had in VA this year was a couple days ago but it was only about 1 1/2-2 inches.. i still drove around all day on backroads just for fun and my cars not even a quattro

On your way back to Oswego, if you're coming up 81N or 17, you should stop in Binghamton for a beer to warm up LOL. Seriously though, PM me when you see this if you wanna stop in and say hey on your way home, and I'll send you a number to get ahold of me. Maybe we can convince hiwords to show up too.
