Snow Day Pics
My A33 was in the garage when it snowed, so it missed out on the pretty flakes (what a shame!), but the A32 was parked outside and got to feel the snow, so I decided to take some pics.
Front side view of A32 covered in snow:
Rear view of A32 with A33 in the garage:
Front view of A32 shot from A33's rear door:
Nice shot of A33's a$$ and A32's head:

Nice pics. I'm so glad my A33 is garaged! I went to the manual wash yesterday & hosed her off because she was filthy from all the snow & salt. Its just too cold to wash by hand right now. Hasn't gotten above freezing in like a week.

Yeah I haven't been washing my I's either, it's been 3 months for the '00! First it was the rain, and then it got so cold, maybe I should take it to those carwash places, but I haven't seen one that's full hand wash yet, I am scared of those machinese.
About the snow and salt combo, that's only in the east coast right? I am in the west coast, should I remove the snow from the car to protect the paint?

Salt is what you have to worry about.
F*ckers in TDOT decided to hose the interstate down with brine-solution this afternoon. Totally unnecessary. They seem to forget the we live in TENNESSEE.
(Seriously, no precipitation or road-freezing temperatures in the forecast...at all!)
Oh well. More reason to keep the freshly-washed I in the garage and take the Pathfinder or G35.

I don't know how wet/slippery TN roads get, but I had a hard time driving a RWD vehicle over here, so I would suggest you use the Pathfinder unless the roads are dry.
BTW, anyone know the official color name of my '98? Is it platinum metallic?

Heh, part of the humor of it all is that the roads here just don't get bad. If there's actual snow/ice (once every 5-6 years) everything shuts down for a week anyway.
Oh, and surprisingly, the G35 is pretty capable in slick conditions. Just modulate the pedal, don't panic, and trust in VDC.

Here in Nebraska they dump alot of sand & salt, so not only do you have to worry about the salt on your paint, but the chunks of sand/gravel that ding up my front bumper & hood! But I suppose thats better than driving around on sheets of ice.

They do the same damned thing here in CO. Sand everywhere!!! Sometimes, the yellow lines in the middle of the road are 100% covered over with sand. As soon as you go to pass someone, you can hear the 50,000,000 pebbles flinging all over the car.

And black ice+ pitch black night= Oh SH*!
I'd rather have a filthy car than a broken one.
