February 24, 201115 yr Finally got some mediocre snow in Beaverton Couldnt drift on it though, wasnt slippery enough... and I TRIED lol. Heres Ned stuck under some snow And then, I made a snow man and put him in the freezer lol Pretty cool, supposedly 4 more inches before Sunday... Lets hope its drifting snow
February 24, 201115 yr Holy Crap! You guys got way more snow then we did. Also here is your cars twin in the snow.
February 25, 201115 yr For those not "blessed" with being in the PNW, for the last week the TV News has been warning the Puget Sound region of the impending "Snow-tastrophe" (copyright pending ). After 3 days of being "on alert", I have about an inch of snow. I am in an area that typically gets snow before most of the region, and typically some of the higher accumulations. And I have about an inch... My Subarus are envious!
February 25, 201115 yr We got about 4-5in in our area. This was a strange storm tho. Moist cold air from the Gulf of Alaska and then cold air coming down from Canada. It came in waves and pockets her and there. Seattle had just a trace, yet areas south, east and north got scattered amounts. Some areas got dumped on and others got zip. I'm happy we got some, but bummed I cant go out and play in it. The fiancée has been home the last 2 days I also heard that this storm might push far enough south for it to snow in San Fran.
February 25, 201115 yr wednesday morning: after the commute: that afternoon: trying to clear out the parking lot: After that, i went across the street and towed about 6 people out of the mall parking lot, then when i tried to go home, the timing belt jumped about 10 teeth. A guy in a truck towed me back across the street and i dumped her in the parking lot and i managed to replace it today, after digging her out.

And then, I made a snow man and put him in the freezer lol Pretty cool, supposedly 4 more inches before Sunday... Lets hope its drifting snow Thats because you were out after the sun came up... I was on the road at 4AM working getting my garage truck sideways Then I threw on chains and needed them as TV highway was an icepack up until like 7AM Today I got to see a good 50+ melting snowmen... well snow people... they carrots were not placed properly to make them a snowMAN. Got pretty lucky.... WM was I think the only company in Washington county to not have missed customers.
February 26, 201115 yr Agreed.... I was up til 2 am with no snow... So I fell asleep and woke up to a white driveway, not bad, but oh well. Ned wanted to slide around... But since no snow, I took him to the mud today, managed to get mud on the roof this time, not too shabby.
February 26, 201115 yr we got some snow a few nights ago but I didnt get to play in it Edited February 26, 201115 yr by subinewby
February 27, 201115 yr we got some snow a few nights ago but I didnt get to play in it Your black coupe is still sexy as hell Loved following it up and back to WCSS... even if it WAS slow on the hills Marshall, it started snowing at 3AM in Forest Grove... so you were like an hour off
February 27, 201115 yr Your black coupe is still sexy as hell Loved following it up and back to WCSS... even if it WAS slow on the hills Marshall, it started snowing at 3AM in Forest Grove... so you were like an hour off Agreed, I love that coupe.... lol I like the rims too. Oh well lol, MW2 can only keep me up for so long, then its out I go
February 27, 201115 yr I wish I could give you all some of my snow.... I've plowed snow opening the door on my lifted GL way to many mornings this winter.
February 27, 201115 yr Id take it I love driving in the snow. Actually I guess I wont I need new tires and an alignment before I do anything further with my Subaru but Les Schwab wants near $600 for 4 new 195/50/15s and a 4 wheel alignment. Plus they will probably try to hit me hard to fix my front suspension issue Wish I could hit the lottery.

Plus they will probably try to hit me hard to fix my front suspension issue Wish I could hit the lottery. Craigslist/local forum for tires!! I just scored a set of 85% winterforces for $100. Go to a reputable shop for an alignment, shouldn't be more than $75 or so. I need an alignment too, and to have my tires mounted, so I'm looking at about $205 for tho whole dealy. Heck of a lot better than 600!!! Shop around man
February 27, 201115 yr Thanks for the love guys. I would gladly take some of that snow. We always get teased around the portland metro are.
February 27, 201115 yr Its hard, my trust on craigslist is kinda low. Picked up my set of 195-60-15s for $140 for all of them put on my rims... Tire went flat, took it to him since they came with a 30 day warranty on 1-28-11 (this was on the 25th that I went) so I was under warranty but apparently warranty only covers it if I have a blow out... GREAT, so I can have a blow out, lose control, hit a few other cars and Ill have reassurance that my tire (not TIRES) will be replaced... ugh haha. Oh well, soon Ill have the money for them lol.
February 28, 201115 yr I'm getting mine off a very nice member of a local forum. Yeah you should buy the wheels too!!! lol I am so sick of snow!!!! we have way too much of it, and it just keeps coming. I'm ready for spring/summer
February 28, 201115 yr Yeah you should buy the wheels too!!! lol I am so sick of snow!!!! we have way too much of it, and it just keeps coming. I'm ready for spring/summer If I buy the wheels too I'll have him keep the tires mounted so I don't have to pay the $40... I don't need to turn into another wheel whore. hahaha
February 28, 201115 yr If I buy the wheels too I'll have him keep the tires mounted so I don't have to pay the $40... I don't need to turn into another wheel whore. hahaha Yes, that's what you should do!!
March 6, 201115 yr to see a lot of debris and junk at the target range we stopped and had lunch at. ^ Looks like there could be an ok L series dual range 5 speed gearbox in there... Here's Ruby Scoo in the snow last winter up at Mt Buffalo: Mt Hotham: Can't wait to get back up the snow later this year, will be moving back to Mt Hotham in the next month or two before the winter to start organising apartments for occupation... Love not having to put the chains on too! Rarely do 4wd's need chains, most people fit them anyway because they don't know how to control a vehicle if a side is induced. Anyway, I love it and am jealous that you guys have ************-tins of snow over there at the moment! To cap it off our summer sucks this year - no heat Cheers Bennie
