AggieDave 6 #1 March 7, 2008 I haven't seen real snow in probably 5 years. Kind of strange, but it does make sense. It was nearly 80F last week it makes sense that it would be snowing this week. Not to mention that it HAD to snow since I'm not quite done building my VW and I have sold my truck. That means I ride a motorcycle around full time right now. Snow? Central Texas? Well, where I grew up in TX got 9" of snow last night, so it could be worst.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

iamsam 0 #7 March 7, 2008 I lived with a mate many years back and his brazilian girlfriend, the look on her face when she saw real snow for the 1st time (she was about 18 at the time) was absolutely priceless, even if it was the slushy grey London variety. Almost made up for the hell it was living with her. OK maybe her tendancy to walk around the flat wearing high heels, g-string and notalot else also helped..but what do I know Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sounds like Alabama, multiplied by 4. We're supposed to get some snow tonight. I have a lot of experience driving on snow while in college in Rochester NY, but tonight I'm staying the fuck home!

HeatherB 0 #13 March 7, 2008 We had several inches of snow here yesterday and last night, northwest of ft worth. Here in the boonies we always get more than Dallas. The schools were closed and there were a ton of accidents. I stayed home! I wasn't about to get on the roads with a bunch of Texans who have never driven on snow or ice before!

I believe ya. My Sister in law used to have a Mazda Miata, and she was 6'-1" and 210 lbs. She fit in there like it was a tight condom! I was amazed. I used to have a Porsche 914 and it looked small from the outside, but it was very roomy inside.

Amazon 7 #20 March 8, 2008 I checked out a Miata.... I felt like I was wearing it...not sitting in it... kinda like the 60's Austin Healy Sprite and MG Midgets I used to own back in the 70's when I was a tad skinnier...Porsche... meh...

Amazon 7 #23 March 8, 2008 QuoteSeriously, though...I did not know that they made a diesel version...that bears looking into, when it comes time to go car-shopping... I had a diesel VW Bunny back when I was in college. I bouight it after I got out of the Air Farce and it served me very well for 6 years. Even back in the early 80's I was getting 45 MPG in it. the main thing is to keep it up mechanically. What finally killed mine was a blown water pump on a summer trip in the desert.. it lost cooling immediately and the head warped. The newer ones seem to be better for that but you still need to maintain them if you want to get 300k or more out of the engine. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
