Man, you guys are writing about snow blowers and I got all sweaty mowing my yards today. Just imagine if we had to shovel or use scissors to maintain the yards  . Afterwards took the wife out to lunch and then to the beach, in the Jägermobile of course.

We get similar problems....It's called being snow blind.

Warmed up to 55 today, so I figured I'd exercise the top/motors/etc. More snow and cold coming east this week, but thankfully I'll be in Vegas.

Tomonomics, you know that front license plate is actually optional right?
I haven't had a front license plate on a car in NJ since Bill Clinton was President.
99% of time they don't even bother to write the ticket and if they do write at ticket,
it's better than having the Staties use it to zap me with the lazer on the Parkway.
As a matter of fact I got a ticket on the Parkway recently (warning with a fine) and they didn't even look at the front of the car.

P-Lap, I agree it's not a big deal most of the time, as I had no front tag on my Miata for 10 years and only received one warning. However, after getting two tickets at $100 each during the first ~five months in the Boxster, I decided it was no longer 'optional'. Sometimes it just comes down to the town you're in, the car you're in, and how Johnny Law feels that day.
I put it back on for inspection, and mounted it low and recessed into the front spoiler so I don't even see it when I walk around the car. It's been there ever since and doesn't bother me anymore. While I prefer the look without it, I choose to keep a low profile and not draw attention in that regard.
