We've got about a good six inches accumulated, if you go by what's on top of the cars, and maybe 3 or 4 inches on the road from people driving over it. It's been big, sticky flakes, and has changed into a sort of freezing rain and snow mix. Branches have been snapping off of the trees in the neighborhood every few minutes, and the wind started picking up. This is pretty crazy for the middle of the fall...we have any members in New Mexico willing to put me up for a few nights til I find a place to rent?

And Johnny, I had no idea you modeled for novel covers! Nice duds, man!

Sounds like a good business to build, may want to get into talks with the 007 folks, you could have something on par with an Aston Martin in every recent film.

Eastern NC 2 ways to drive California style- top down A/C on or NC style- top down w/a little heat on.

If I need the heater, I never put the top down. It could likely be too cold for the rear plastic window.

Gotta disagree, Milehigh, I do run with a little heat even when it's 60 and late afternoon. Today, perfect example. Could see plane contrrails for miles & miles is SW PA tonight & perfect evening for top down with a little heat...

Okay. I barely run the heat in my house at 60.
