Winter Driving > UPS Shipping

Why use UPS for shipping when you can take a 3 hour trip from Buffalo, NY to Chardon, Ohio to pick up SS/TC grills and an SS/SC cluster?



Some worthy notes. Seen an H2 hummer towing a snowmobile trailer off the road. Seen a Mitsubushi Lancer and a Ford Windstar that were rolled over along with a handful of other cars off the road.

Is it really that hard to drive in the snow??? I did 70-80 and never once even came close to losing control.

Some people just don't got the skill. Either overly confident, or overly safe.

It all about the right tires. Most people I have seen wreck in the snow had no tread on the tires
