I'm sure the visibility is great, but that is a face only a mother could love. Congrats on the Mog. For the life of me, I can't remember the outfit that shipped my 406 to Cali last year. Good outfit and quick.

I finally found a company ( tn't auto transport ) to haul the ugly duck home. I didn't realize how difficult it is to transport 11,000 pound vehicles (with snow plow) across country!

With snow of your depth, is that windshield rated for plow duty? At least it's sloped the right direction!
Enjoy,

Thanks AK.
Fortunately, we only have about 10 inches in most places. The big drifts may be here untill spring
The weather people were forecasting another 30 inches, but have since changed to an ice storm. I think we may be in for a fun
winter. We had an El Nino winter in 97 and I kept track of about 120 inches of snow. I didn't have a mog or pinz back then!! Come to think of it, I didn't have a 4x4 tractor either....how did we make it?
You can spend a lot of money and still be in the same boat.
Anyone want to come play in the snow, because I want to go to Cabo!!!

El Nino affects us the opposite here....we get heat, and lots of it and no rain.
Farmers and the like here would kill for 120 inches of snow
Just moved onto stage 3 water restrictions the other week as Melbourne's water supply is down to about 37% ... we can only water the gardens for a few hours twice a week etc and recent temps are in the high 30 / low 40's. (100+ F)
....so if you package up some snow, I'II do the same with some heat and dry soil and maybe we can relieve each others misery

I feel for you. We had a dry year last year---lots of fires. It was not as bad as what you are having to deal with. I would much rather have blizzards than wild fires.
Try to stay Uncrispy!
