Title: said it b4, I'll say it again, MAN I love my zuki
Post by: bandit86 on January 22, 2005, 11:30:55 AM: it snowed about a foot here today, half as much friday, and a bit more here and there. The driveway is three cars long and two wide, but could only shovel to one side since the other lane is the neighbours... The snow banks on our side of the driveway were kinda big, 6 ft at the end, and it was a pain in the A$$ to throw the snow that high, so before leaving today morning, I kept ramming the snowhill with my zook till it was 6 foot back on the lawn, leaving room for more snow. now its 5 foot tall again, I'll have to do it again tomorrow morning. YAAAAY, I love driving a zooki. I'm going to rig some sort of a plow on it for next winter, maybe make some cash on the side.

Post by: nitromax on January 22, 2005, 05:47:27 PM: They promissed snow here as well, but all we have this morning is just a tiny bit of frost on the trees :( I was hoping to ride in the snow with the Sammi and the newly installed locker.
I'm in the Netherlands and we do not get that much snow, about 3 "is already very high ( and that already stop half the country on the highway >:( ) and most of the time it's gone within 2 days, turned into wet, muddy crap.

Can't you guys in the real stuff post some pics of your Zuks in the snowbanks ? ;)

Post by: Maiden Hell on January 23, 2005, 02:31:06 AM: I've said it before and I'll say it again too, I FRIGGIN LOVE my Sidekick. It snowed ALL day yesterday in Southern Ontario and I couldn't be happier!! My Sidekick is unstoppable with these winter tires, AT in gear 2 and 4WD engaged. Talk about control. I was leaving everybody in the my snow dust. Snow isn't melting either, it is so cold right now it's great!

City plows are working over time and they're creating these massive snow drifts along the side of the streets and block parking parallel to the curb. I just bust in there and park like is was a hot summers day! BWA HA HA!!

Everyone else with their POS 2WD cars and trucks can suck my you know what. I'll take a few pics today and post em later give you guys an idea of my winter wonderland. :D

But it wasn't, just that 1" of snow, stopping all traffic in the Netherlands. It's just been on the news, almost 600 km's of trafficjam, one of the biggest since a very long time. I'd hate to think what would happen with these people in the parts you guys live in.

WE WANT PICTURES OF YOUR ZUK IN THE SNOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

::)

Our snow didn't last to long up here though. We had a bit on the hills, but a warm front moved in and killed most of it.

Post by: CBTracker on January 25, 2005, 06:39:12 AM: I love mine, just got a fairly decent snow storm, 70cm down, drifting on top of the foot we had before. (yes I"m from canada hence metric and imperial :) he he). went playing in teh drifts at alocal parking lot and discovered my tracker fits quite nicely in a cart corral. he he. Ã‚Â I gotta find a good way to post some pics.

Any soft top owners know how to reduce the amount of snow blowing in the roof? gets pretty gusty here on the east coast. and shoveling out my daily driver isn't the funnest every morning. :-[

Post by: Loyal on January 26, 2005, 02:31:48 AM: CBTracker . . . you from the Rock?

We had approx 60cm (2 ft) snow on Saturday. Got to use my Snowbear Plow, Im impressed. Got some video and will post it later.

I love my Kick too . . . saved me HOURS of shovelling.

Getting another 30cm tomorrow.
