NO more Alky for us

[Grumpy]

Last few days we had been getting a inch of snow to make things a hell hole around here with the salt . Plus drag radials aren't that good in even an inch of snow (hey we can spin the tires now ) Soooo no more "Alky" for 3 weeks /month Seriously the car is coming apart to do some part swapping I got yelled at for getting salt on the car to ok crunch time has begun :biggrin:

[matt87]

well sorry Grump,no salt on my fries! in a perfect world i would drive it every day. we got 178k miles on ours, it gets its workout, but only in the sun!

 

[Grumpy]

ummmm we have put way more than that on our fleet of winter/summer Buicks since 1986 .. mine arn't garage queens they are DRIVER's/racers ... Melissa doesn't drive them anymore in the winter if she can help it .. I did because she left the keys out and I needed to go out oh the 9k she put on her car is the one she just bought and started driving in sept ... her WE4 had 130k (gone) .. Her Limited had 218k (still here ..her 1st car ) sooooo you see we do drive our fleet of junker's

Here in Boise we get little snow, but the chemical crap they put down, stays on the pavement, it is magnesium something, they always used sand in the past, but with this crap you can spin your tires at part throttle at 70mph, the State Police hate this stuff cause they beleive it causes more accidents then it prevents because it stays on the road, Oh well prolly somebody's Uncle, brother, sister, sells this stuff to the county, plus you need to see what it does to alloy type wheels.
