The Colorado front range is getting more snow today. To bad the weather guys only forecast only 18 inches this time. The more the merrier. Me and the VX love playing in the snow. I had to chain her up on all fours xmas day to get to my sisters. Awesome performance in the snow with chains on all fours.

18 inches?! wow... that's a lot more than predicted for around my parts. Where is Pine again? (nearest town/city?).

VX does do great in the snow, even better with upgraded tires. But I do wish the snow fall would give us at least a 'little' reprieve so I can get a chance to wash all the mag chloride off her...

Yeah, we got a dab here in Reno last night. Not enough to keep people home, but certainly enough to make people drive 15mph when they don't have to.

Also, about driving in the snow. Last night I dropped my VX into 4WD Low and drove up a hill on the road, just to try it out. What is the recommended speed you should stay under while in 4WD Low? I was coasting along at about 20-25 but I noticed an incredible amount of drag when I let off the gas. Is this normal when in 4WD Low? I kept my main shifter in Drive to avoid high RPMs...

Color me 40 Shades of Jealous! --- The local National Weather Service just announced yesterday that the same trough in the jet stream that’s been responsible for all of the snow that you’ve been getting will continue preventing very much winter weather from visiting us here in West Virginia… For crying out loud, it’s 57* right now – DOH!

I have a whole lot more experience with a 5-speed / Tera-Low’d Rodeo, but last year I did get to play around in the snow with the VX a little bit…

In the VX, a top speed in 4-Low of about 20-25 mph sounds about right to me… as does the drag effect that you experienced. --- When letting off of the throttle, you *should* notice an immediate loss of forward momentum – that’s just the lower gearing doing its thing.

OK cool, I figured that was about right, and yes, when I let off the gas, she wants to slow down to a crawl it seems. As long as it is normal, I'm cool and the gang...

The local National Weather Service just announced...

...that Hell has officially frozen-over!

While watching the Weather Channel last night, I saw where they listed all of the places that broke their all-time high temps yesterday...
My very own little burg of BFE, WV was the very first city on the list, with a high of 69* !!!

No kidding - on top of this mountain, here in "Nature's Air-Conditioned City", that's warmer than some of our summer daytime highs!
