how bad is the snow? I have to go to portland tonight and i need to know if its heavy or not, if not i am taking my burban, is so i am taking the suby....
so far it's pretty light. you never really have to worry about snow as there never is a lot that accumulates (at the lower elevations), all you have to worry about is the ice, which there isn't any of that i know about so far.
Was pretty bad in forest grove. I went out for smokes and took me 4 tries to get back into the driveway. the last one took some style. I did a donut to pulling up the driveway tokyo drift style. it was awesome. I'll be damned if I park on the street.

I attempted to drive home (beaverton) from the NW portland industrial area at about 3. Got to burnside, went up a few hundred feet and traffic was merging to one lane and pretty much stopped with half the people turning around. I tried not to stop because I was worried I wouldn't be able to get going or would slide backwards. I ended up turning around, going back to work. The FC wasn't too great in the snow, even with new S. drive yokohama tires. Going up Westover I couldn't keep it straight, it was slightly sideways the whole way up, 2nd gear at 2k rpm lightly on the throttle. If I let off the throttle in gear the back end would start to come around on level ground. It was fun. But I don't think I would have made it home. Got a ride in a 4wd, had no problems. Just other people in the way. 45-60 minutes sitting on 23rd, once we got to Vista it was no problem. A mercedes made a left from a right turn lane onto 23rd and got stuck in front of us. So we just went around him. Karma bit him in the butt.
