So I said to myself, I said "Handee"
and this voice came back and said..

We got somewhere around 2 feet - hard to tell since we had a bout of sleet on Friday night so a lot of it got packed down. We never did lose power & got dug out yesterday. I did get out on the roads with the VX a little last night. It did great but that (&*)(*^& TOD lite keeps coming back on.

Wohoo, power came back on, 66 hours later. I drove around a bit today and saw 4 power trucks nearby, accompanied by a couple tree trimming trucks. One thing is for sure, a generator is on the list of must buys this year.
Now, to get the house warm.

Over the last few weeks, I'm getting my first experience at driving the VX in the snow. Yesterday I was driving through 4 or 5 inches. I have the 33 inch mud tires on mine. It felt like it wanted to spin around on me. Not so much when I'm accelerating, but just driving along. I don't know if it was just the ruts in the snow making my tires follow them or if I was actually sliding a bit.
I was able to hit the gas and pull straight at any time, I was just a little nervous driving faster than 15 or 20 though.
Is that normal? Is 15 to 20 the speed I should be trecking through 4 inches of snow anyways?
I'm kinda new to this. We have been getting more snow here in my area this year than any other time since I was a kid.

I think your VX was 'searching' for the ruts. Mine does it too since my stance is significantly wider than a normal car, I don't match the ruts. If you take it out in virgin snow, I doubt you'll notice it.Originally Posted by samneil2000

we have the EXACT opposite thing going on around here...
colorado is drying up. everyone here is freakin out a little because we arent gonna have any water this year to feed all the other states for crops and whatnot.
the 'ski' mountains are also really hurting because no one is riding them due to the lack of base snow. (around 40 inches for most mountains right now, average this time of year is 120 inches)
