Woke up to 6-8" here as well - roads practically untouched on my drive into the office. Explorer cut thru nicely.
<--- Wondering how the C4 will do next year???

Hey Tab, I love this weather, I took me 1.5 hrs to get to Toledo for work today but I had a blast! I was in my 4wd Tacoma although I thought about taking the bimmer so that the wife could have the truck. When I got out on our road, it is solid waves of drifts about 1' high. The radio stated a level3 "snow emergency" and that driving is illegal and I could be ticketed. I would like to see the cop who can catch me in twelve inches of snow Haha! I crack up at these snow emergencies, the people who send them out would not last too long if they lived up in Michigan where an 8-12" snowfall is routine.
When I get home today, if the plow made it down our road, I am taking the 16yr old driver out in her 924 for some winter driving lessons (this will be great fun)! By the way Tab, I just took delivery of a 48" scissors lift. I still need to build ramps so that I can get the 911 on it, but it picked my truck up quite effortlessly.

Even here in lowly, warm Dallas we got some of that white stuff.
Here's a picture of my Black SC Targa, if it were painted white:  We actually got more after the picture, about 2" on top of the car, but I didn't have a camera available then... Of course, the snow didn't even stick to the roads, so there was really no trouble driving, but my kids love it. --sagacis

Man, I hate the frickin' winter. We've got about 6-8" on the ground here in north-central Indiana and more on the way. My little T is resting comfortably in the garage - owner is restlessly waiting for spring

Souk it is a Bendpak brand MD-6XP (48"lift). I tried to buy the Harbor Freight mid high lift for $899, but they said it was out of stock and they could not predict when they would have them again (the lady on the phone in CA was an idiot and was very useless!). I found this one for $1400 delivered. This was the best "delivered" price I could find on-line.
It seems well made and is made in CA, but I would not hesitate to buy the "Foreign Knockoff" for less money. They were all out and I had a need to scratch my "I need a lift" itch ASAP!

Cleveland west side, Bay Village, looking at about 20 on the ground right now and another 4-6 coming. It hasn't stopped snowing since yesterday morning. It's very heavy compacted snow, perfect for the heart attack season.
I guess it's a good reason to get in the garage and work on the 911. John
