16 Inches of snow in N. Illinois..and falling
And still coming down. Needless to say the 4runner is AMAZING. I was the only one riding around. The cops around here have Sedans and a few exploders... today would be a perfect day for a bank robbery in a 4runner

Hey Dan, you were not alone out there, I was driving around the North side of town too.....
My dad and I had to go recue my sister because she was driving our little corolla. We just got home, it's 11PM.
I have the crap Dunlops. I'm sure if I had Revos it would've been much more fun.

Send that snow this way, it's 42 in central MA right now and I am hating it. It should be 20 or colder!

NJ has had some really weird weather. It would be 20 degrees and then it would go up to 50/60 and rain like hell. Today we are supposed to break a record of 62 with rain. I hate to say I'd like to see some real snow, but I would. I haven't gotten a chance to play in real deep snow yet with the 4Runner, just 6" so far. Some KIDS never grow up! That's what my daughter that graduated collage last year tells me. That, and turn down the music! Never thought my kids would be lecturing me on driving too fast. KIDS!

Same here.... Few years ago, I sold my wrangler for a little Acura and all we got was snow. Now, I trade it in for the 4runner, and its the warmest January in years!

I want to go, but after every good storm, I get tied up with work. When I do have time, it's been a pretty warm week and it's probably ice or slush up in the mountains.
