The first rule of Tahoe Powder is:
We do not talk about Tahoe Powder."if the city is visibly one of humankind's greatest achievements, its uncontrolled evolution also can lead to desecration of both nature and the human spirit."

I still think that my subie being in the shop and unavailable for my use is the culprit....

Ditto, just put on the Summer tires and blingy wheels. Damn I hope this storm is cold and makes it to Utah...Originally posted by onehotchili
well hopefully i won't ditch my Suby onto the side of the road. to spur the snow gods, i swapped my dedicated snow tires with my summer tires. i also did other crap like sweep the deck, break out the BBQ, etc., but i did that weeeeeeks ago.
