Default Is it a bad idea to wash the car today?

I'm wondering if it's really going to snow here this weekend?

Just remember, if you DO wash your car and it DOES snow, everyone will blame it on you. They might even make fun of you on teh intraweb!!!!

Go ahead and do it. I washed mine today, so I can be blamed. Mine was painfully dirty. Everyone that got near the car, ended up covered in dust.

If you want to call it shovelling. They still havent been able to close the rear gate! Its hazardous to walk around the apartment complex.

I forgot about the rear gate being stuck open - shortcut back in, ha ha. But yeah, some areas still have an ice pack, although my sidewalks are clear. How about yours?

The sidwalks are clear of snow and ice, however, there is a large slab of ice where the walk meets the street, so you have to walk in the snow to keep yourself from slipping. Kinda defeats the purpose.

I haven't driven my car since November 4th.

On the bright side, I have one of these coming for the truck: http://www.superchips.com/html/produ...sel_trucks.htm

Mmm... 110 extra ponies...
