I don't think that's going to go very well in the snow. One small snow drift on I70 and it's over.

For the uninitiated, Olsson is a professional skier renowned for his choice of cars. Not content with rubbing shoulders with the proletariat on the ski bus, in the past he's slapped a roof box on to a modified GT-R, Audi R8, Lamborghini Gallardo and Murcielago SV and even a Le Mans-style prototype race car and made his way to the slopes that way.

You should do that, they tried to franchise to the Denver metro area and it flopped for some reason. They have a few metro locations left, but not many. The one in Aspen closed for some reason even though it was always packed.
