We got a foot out here in the Wack and it's still coming down.
Oh and just for clarification.... On Saturday didn't the forecast call for 20-30cm of snow today and you all called them trolls?
Berz out.

stupid vancouver. same old crap again... barely plowed main roads (king ed. was so bad the buses couldn't pull up to the bus stops and had to stop in the middle of the road), and you can forget about the side streets if you are lowered... i was dragging so much snow started to pile up between my engine and firewall and caused my egt gauge and probe to go nuts

Hwy 1 eastbound from 246th on, is terrible. Has not been cleared. Add to this not much traffic heading that way in the morning and the snow gets to pile up. Dumb ass drivers not slowing down when changing lanes or making quick lane changes with little to no warning.

Lights are out at 41st/Knight, Kingsway/Knight. Noticed on my drive in to work this morning. Had to take sidestreets to make it to work on time. The snow was no trouble with my subie + snowshoes.

Toronto has ~1500 plow/salt trucks
I do not wish to pay more taxes to clear snow a couple days a year. People can deal with it for a few hours until it melts, or grab a shovel.

I don't know of any car that has an undertray that blocks between the firewall and the engine.
