re: Did you drive today?

Drove the 2 miles or so from the hotel back to the plant. Road was pretty crunchy.

Bunch of GWagons and Wranglers driving around.

My Canyon's rear end got loose a couple times on Bluebonnet

I walked around the LSU lakes and most drivers were cautious. There was a single Cadillac Escalade doing at least 40 down Dalrymple. Barely a care that he was on ice.

Of course I drove. Probably going out in a minute just to cruise around.

If you are scared to drive in these conditions you are a massive pussy.

I drove to go sledding on the levee. The experience to me was worth the possible loss of a $10k vehicle

Between midnight and 1:54 am I did not drive today. Next question.

After lunch I drove to Rouses. The hardest part was getting out of my driveway.

I drove last night, made it home safe. Was able to leave work around 730PM. Made it in less than an hour.

Plus what's the sense of having one of the most capable 4x4s if you don't get to use it when you need it.

I drove a 20+ yr old miata, did just fine. My son wanted me to leave it and come get me in the truck, but no need. For one thing, no reason for him to get on the roads too if he doesn't have to.
Second thing is the miata is RWD and a standard. I didn't touch the brakes the entire drive home, just used the gear ratio to slow down when needed. Bluebonnet and Airline were fine.

We stocked up on essentials to get through tomorrow, so no reason to get out unless it's necessary. Like many here, I have seen my share of snow so there is no curiosity about seeing it in the local area.
