You want a LOT more fun??? Get a rear wheel drive vehicle and learn to drift with the throttle.. WAY more fun!!!!

I'll bet! The closest I get to that is on Gran Turismo. When I hand-brake around corners in my front wheel drive, I pretend that I'm drifting. :-D

Dare I confess it in this thread?! Yes, it's true...I have never EVER driven in snow. Nope, not once...;-)

In such weather, I'd have to hang a sign outside my door..."Wake me when it's SPRING!"

You mean, drive through snow like this that I encountered on a photo safari in Esclante, UT last year? LOL!!!

That is my SUV.

Wimp! ;) ;)

slippy, get in a snowy lot, put your car in reverse, turn the wheel about 3/4 of the way to one side and smash the throttle.. they're called reverse donuts.. about as good as you can do in a fwd car..

Pretty much...... I think you might even be safe going a bit further than "wimps".... ;)


Take a hurricane head on and get back to me.


Take hurricane force winds at -15f.. then get back to me. When the wind chill drops below -40f, it separates the men from the boys..

LOL...I'm not fooled by you...I saw that twinkle of mischief in your eye!

But, none-the-less...thank you for such an outrageous compliment.
