Yes, I got lucky , I have the biggest parking spot, on my street. However I do miss having a garage. (None available where I live )

When I was leaving the office thats when i took the pics! I left the Z there and drove home with a coworker! When the roads got a bit better I went back, dug the car out of its grave and drove it home (about 13 miles away)! It wasn't that bad!

I wish I had a beater...i wouldn't have to deal with this every year, d@mn student loans

February 14th 2007

This is where my car sat for 1 week until the snow melted enough to move my car. BFG KDW2's don't do to well in the snow. Great tires, just not in the snow. I also busted one of my rear mud-flaps things trying to use a 2x4 to get traction so I could move my car....

Not a good idea...

And be advised, my driveway kept going, I couldn't get any further so I backed it into the grass...which is where it is in the picture...

In the grass...

This is from last winter. I like the frosted glass in this pic (must have been more of an ice storm/freezing rain).

Seriously I would love to have a beater like that. 2-3 inches is about all Virginia gets anyway most of the time.
