With impending doom on our doorstep I figured we should show our cars playing in the snow.

I'll start. Mine with the winter shoes

Snow pics tomorrow.

Haha! Meant to put 14/15 in the title.

screw this weather! ruined Thanksgiving, all plans got cancelled, we lost power for the entire day, couldnt cook, sitting in front of the fire to stay warm!

Looks like my neighborhood right now. Ehh, pull the cover and go for a ride, it'll make you feel better.

Gotta get a pic or two tomorrow in the daylight before the snow goes away. I put the Conti EWC's on a few days ago, they turn this car into a little tank. Total confidence in the nastiest shit conditions yesterday, I was actually surprised. I mean, growing up all we had was rwd and we went everywhere (within reason) but I expected it to be more difficult with this car than it is. Going in and out of parking lots I got a bit worried about the front lip but she plowed right through and ate up everything else.

What type of car cover is that?

I am wondering about doing the same thing because I park outside and worried about the melting ice putting some scratches into the car.

Does this run risk of scratching your car as you put it on, take it off. etc?

its actually a BMW car cover,
it doesnt really fit so well on my car, there are spots meant for the mirrors and it doesnt line up so well

this material is soft enough where it wont scratch the car taking it on and off, only downside is if its outside, you might get a leaf or two stuck on the inside of the car cover

it would really well in the last snow storm we had!

It's been mid-upper 40's here which is odd for Wisconsin in the middle of December. Almost 10* above average for more than a week. We don't have snow anymore.
