There is a grand am behind my truck. Somewhere??
We didn't loose power @ my house.
We averaged about 26 in of snow on my street.
Plus freezing rain today.
There's a forecast of more snow @ the end of this week & more next week.
We did loose a few small branches & several bushes.

We did okay up here in north jersey and NYC. I was at work in queens during the storm. Truck served me well as the 4x4 worked fine. Only problem is now the 4x4 cable def needs to be replaced as the front axle is having issues disengaging. Seems as though the hole in the cable has finally taken on some salt and is rusting it up. All in all everything was pretty good no loss of power, everyone in NJ stayed off the roads and things were back to normal quickly. Long island on the other hand, people got stranded everywhere because they thought it would be okay to drive on the LIE. They were wrong lol.

im on the ri & mass border & both states wanted everybody off the rd by 4pm fri.
by 9pm fri, full size plow trucks w/ sanders were getting stuck.
i didnt take my crew out till sunday, i didnt have a problem getting around in 2wd.
ive yet to put the truck in 4wd, so i dont know if it even works properly.
i know my limits & s series stock limits, ive been driving dimes for about 18yrs. & never put any of them in 4wd.
im glad that everybody made it through this storm.
