Absolute love or sheer stupidity?

23 degrees with wind chill here and I'm soaked to the bone.

That's what I get for driving her the day after they sanded the roads...in a matter of 10 minutes, she was covered in grime and crap and was easily the filthiest she's ever been.

Ah well - she's back to good now.

Hehehe...reminds me of my '93 Z28. I actually went and bought an old Wagoneer for $1500 to get me around in the snow that winter.

After about 4 weeks, I gave up and returned to my Z and used her for the rest of the winter. I just couldn't help myself. And this was in some nice, deep Idaho snow...I remember the ABS light blinking almost constantly!
