so after one cold winter suddenly everyone figures that they need snow tires.

and then this year, it's gonna be all wet snow and nothing else.

Should have bought stocks to tire makers around summer this year.

Man I remember that. I remember one night the power went out in like all of port coquitlam. My buddy wanted to go eat so I said ok I'll drive since I've got winter tires. I didnt bother scraping all the snow off the top of my car so I just drove around like that.

When I went up a hill I heard a really loud rumble and didnt know what it was.
Then my buddy saw some dude looking at us, then I figured it must've been the 200lbs of snow sitting on my roof sliding off

they do. but they can't roll the lever thing under my car, so another guy has to "lift" the car up by the fenders, and jamming the lever in.

when they jack the car up, the sideskirt is part of the support.

anyways, i will have to do it myself next time... since my steelies has made it even lower.

If they were smart, they would have put pieces of wood on top of each support. That way it would just clear the side skirts.
