Yeah, Mustangs are terrible in slick stuff.

My Malibu isn't all that much better, for that matter. I miss my SUV.

You still driving that mustang go chiefs? If so, there's your problem

It's pathetic how the city of Kansas City plows their roads.

BigCatDaddy 02-09-2014 09:38 PM

I'm expecting that call in the morning that my sons school will be canceled for the 5th straight day. Rural school bus routes don't get plowed very well.

Subarus are a ton of fun in the snow. My wife owned an Impreza when we lived in Colorado, and I loved taking it if I was doing a lot of highway or interstate driving (like my commute up to Wyoming back then). Not as badass as a dedicated 4wd like my 4runner at the time, but still impressive. Main advantage of the 4runner was clearance. I could break tracks in 30" of snow in it (which I got to do while we were out there) and the Sub was going nowhere.

Yep. Only issue I ever have while driving in snow with my Subaru is clearance. I love my Impreza WRX STI

Hell no. They found it up in the hood. Whoever stole it did it for a ride, walked away, and all the zombies picked it apart over the following weeks. Stole all the wiring, fuse box, catalytic converter...and my carrier still wouldn't total it.

Surprised you still had a radiator, AC condenser and heater core. Those are usually the first things meth-heads go after because they can be sold at a scrap yard for the copper.

Just out of curiosity -

1) Where is the other town with the hotel room
2) What is the name it is under
and
c) Does it have a mini-bar?

I've concluded that here in KS, we get approximately 2-3 weeks of great weather per yet (or, at least it seems that way).

It's either balls cold, or balls hot the remainder of the year.

I should know. I'm a doctor. It's science.

We haven't seen 70s since October.

This isn't the coldest or the snowiest winter but we keep going back and forth from subzero temps to a slight warmup that comes with more snow, rinse, repeat.

Nice warmup coming for the KC area. Might try to get out and play some golf this weekend.

Unless the course you plan to play drains like a badass, it's likely they'll be swamps.

Spent 3 1/2 hours this afternoon shoveling 14" inches of snow plus another 3' that was built up along the entire bottom of the driveway in a 15' x 8' grid.

It was raining and sleeting for quite a while so I was soaking wet when I finished. It's now turning back to snow and expecting 4-5" more.

This winter can't end soon enough for me! :cuss:

ShowtimeSBMVP 02-13-2014 05:51 PM

Good for you. I lived in Sandy Eggo too, it has its advantages, but it has just as many detractors. I did NOT shed a tear when my career moved me from SD to Virginia Beach. It's like people who live in Hawaii, it's all great at first, then reality sets in...

But if you like it, enjoy...

Graystoke 02-14-2014 07:43 AM

Made a road trip from Northeast Iowa to Minneapolis last night. Winds at 40-50 mph. I35 was like a war zone with flipped Semi's from the wind and black ice.
Ok Winter..you win. King of the Seasons!

Supposed to be around 90 here this weekend, which is unseasonably hot by about 15 degree this time of year, even for here. Think I'll take a dip in the pool with this extreme weather.

My goal is to own a retirement home in Scottsdale. I once briefly owned a new home in Pinnacle Canyon off Dynamite Blvd on E Whitefeather La.

I love the area and after all the snow and freezing cold we have suffered this season, I'm trying harder than ever to speed up my plans. I don't want to spend anymore than 3-4 more years in the cold during the winter.

And rightfully so schools should have been closed. The mayor was trying to blame the national weather service and Rooker basically said f you. I live in a snow belt upstate so if there are a lot of snow days they just add days at the end of the year no big deal.

jd1020 02-14-2014 08:09 PM

I think my city didnt think we were going to get much snow.

Yesterday it was only estimated we would get 1-3 inches. I woke up this morning to see my truck burried in at least 4 inches of snow. Classes were still scheduled, and when I was driving to class the streets, including the highway, were awful when they are typically presalted and clear to drive on. The whole time I was driving I was thinking why the hell are classes still scheduled???

When I left to come home I was lucky enough to have someone slide into the back of my truck and when the cops came out I was also lucky enough to have forgotten to put my new insurance card in my truck. Now I have a sweet court date in a month.

What an awesome day!

Woke up this morning and once again, MORE F****** SNOW!

Not much at all but the roads, walkway and cars are all covered. JFC I'm so over this winter already.

The only small positive is all the ugly black and gnarly ice along all the curbs from the plowing is white again.....

Where is there wheat in Kansas? I was in Kansas a lot last summer and didn't see any. Just sorghum and corn.

I lived in Kansas thru much of the 70s when I was a kid. I remember wheat growing everywhere.
