Grand Cherokke Limited FTW

And I am betting with that Jeep you are one of the Morons... No doubt you just drove strait out of the parking lot onto dorsey road when you left work yesterday... Little hill be dammed...

Taco Z FTW!
BTW, does anybody have any tires in the list below for the stock 18x8 Z wheels?
Here is what I am looking for these sizes in any tire brand (they are for the truck not the Z):
225/4018
225/35/18
215/40/18
215/35/18

working from home ftw!

Blizzaks FTW! First time ever driving the Z in the snow and it was just fine. In fact I felt more comfortable in the Z than I did in my old Acura. M/T helps with braking and as long as I don't punch the gas too much, everything is fine.
One problem though, today it is way colder than it has been so far, and I couldn't get ANY windshield washer fluid to come out, even after the car warmed up. I've never experienced this with any other car. Any ideas? I use the same fluid I always have too.

I most likely know the guy with that max. I hang with most of the modded dc area maxima owners.

And my first impressions are not to drive the Z in the snow!
Absolutly no traction, I thought my VDC would take care of things but it was going ape **** making all sorts of strange noises. The problems aren't the main roads but all the side streets and neighborhood streets. Why cant they make an all wheel drive Z!

Low rpm...high gear....I take of in 2nd and drive with the VDC off, however since you didnt grow up in IL like I did, please leave it on...the noises are nothing compared to you Z in a ditch or in the other lane of oncoming traffic.
I drifted about a half block on E St/New Jersy, in downtown DC this morning at about 545am...
Snow FTW! ICE FTL!

When I got new wheels, I got Goodyear Eagle F1 DS-G3s. Unfortunately that's what I had on yesterday, and it way to easy to get the car going sideways. I've got Bridgestone RE960AS's on the stock wheels. Those are going on today. They worked great in the snow last year.
