Glad you made it back safe.

Ahhh.......Tule fog .. ??

Nasty stuff, especially if you're driving on a levee road in the river delta.....

That would be exactly where I was. Sketchy at best but good fog lights really do help.

...does having to drive off the curb and having (I think) just the mud guard scrape a snow mound count as crashing?

Look, I was corraled by a bunch of Subarus everywhere, including one Outback that parked perpendicular ON the driveway ramp after I showed up, leaving maybe 2/3 my car's width available to try to exit with. Lawn was clear, so I did a 180 there to face out and I squeezed out of the driveway with as much of my car on asphalt as possible to minimize the drop.

I wish I was able to drive the FR-S today. Still sitting in the garage on the spare tire waiting for my tires to arrive

I did try to slide it once with the spare, it did *not* like that (understeered like a fat WRX).

I think he means the available driveway width through which to exit was 2/3 the width of his car, so the remaining 1/3 of the car was off the driveway and had to drop down off the curb.

Here you go, Grumps. I'll do you a solid.

I don't think so (hard to tell) .....I took mrs humfrz's tank because it wasn't a drive thru and I had to back up.

I did notice that when I was leaving, the lady that was parked across from me, started to pull out .......then decided to pull back into her spot ..... she just sat there messen with some beads ......
