Re: Trucks in the snow.
EEK! 2 hours?!?!?
Mine's been outside through 15+ inches of snow, and 2 ice storms so far this winter! (I'm lucky that nothing came down on her, although, the garage did survive and I got to take out my chainsaw. I should have made my garage doors big enough for my truck!!!) Anyway, I just cleaned her off for the second time... I'll have to move the truck to someone's nice cozy garage soon... Maybe even get her running. who wants to pollish my stainless??? I'm imagining that I could do that in front of the TV. If I watched any. *edit* good thing my body is already shot.

Re: Trucks in the snow.
I'm kinda cheating, this is from last year, only time my trucks seen snow since it left NY in 2002.
I don't think it's going to snow here this year. It's been in the 50s/60s for the past few weeks and it appears it will be for at least another week or two... not normal... should be in the 30s/40s.

Re: Trucks in the snow.
FYI: leaving NY IS actually considered cheating (to us NYers)
*shakes fist at cheating*

Re: Trucks in the snow.
these are our homemade creation. yip, the winter is long and cold here in canada. there are two versions, the older red ranger was the concept truck, the truck was free, so we were testing with it to see if it worked. after relentless thrashing, the motor finnally blew up (it was a 4cyl, way to slow anyways) and so we bought a 4.0L V6 ranger for a litle more kick. sorry, no action pics of the newer ranger, only the older one.

Re: Trucks in the snow.
I am not going to do anything with it until the weather gets better. I will then register as a site supporter and probably sell it or part it. You can PM me so I can save a spot for you assuming you would still be interested whenever I make my mind up.

Re: Trucks in the snow.
Here's mine a few weeks ago. This pic doesn't show it, but we received the most snow in 40 years and had a white Christmas.

Re: Trucks in the snow.
I didn't want my baby to suffer the snow, so i put her in my neighbors garage for the winter. They use so much salt here in the winter, i probably wouldn't have a body by spring. We have gotten over 40 inches this winter so far. So, it's been a decent snow year.
