Yesterday I plowed and chopped ice from sidewalks. It took a maddocks to break up the ice.

I also took the little Mitsu to a local repair shop and got the oil changed, the brakes checked and the u joints checked. Allisgoot.

Oh yes I also got the new rear shocks installed which I have been carrying around for about two years. It rides like a benz now. (not really),

I had some fun after the blizzard drift busting in my W126. Amazing what they can do with a good set of snow tires! I never even came close to getting stuck....and I was going through stuff bumper high and beyond!

Ya how is that one wheel drive working out for ya The quattro gets enough traction I can plow with the subframe.

I guess buying an Audi did turn me into a smug *******. Now I point and laugh at people in Aveos with bald all seasons trying to get up a moderate incline
