I bought my 4x4 package so I could go off road in Utah and California, but it really has come in handy the last couple days. We got about 24" snow in the last 24 hours. Wow. My F-150 is powerfully awesome!

At work, I have been plowing for the people with trucks that are bigger. If a person leaves furniture or other items in the street to save the spot they shoveled out, I will run it down and destroy it. It is junk in the street.

Anyways, I love my Ford F-150 4x4 Super Cab 5.4 XLT!!!

Is the stuff people are leaving in their shoveled out parking spot, in your way for plowing out other parking spots or are you running the stuff down merely for the sake of destroying it ?

I can understand why people want to save their clean space but if that space is a city street then of course those people don't own the space and would have no legal right to attempt to keep other people from parking in it.

 

ive been pretty thankful for our little jeep. theres about a foot of snow. ive never seen it like this before

I thought only people in Baltimore City, MD did that. I used to live in Baltimore and it was not at all uncommon to drive down the streets and see all kinds of items sitting in a freshly dug out parking spot. I remember years ago we had a huge blizzard, we got over 2ft. of snow in a 24 hour span. I had my truck parked out front of the row house I lived in at the time on a city road so that I could dig out and get to the city plowed road. The next day I dug out my truck and made it around back of my house to my car port where I normally park. The alley doesn't get plowed so my best bet was to park around front during big snow falls. Anyway, my GF at the time (who is now my wife) was coming over to visit, so I put a lawn chair in my freshly dug spot and told her to just move the chair and park when she gets there. When she arrives, she goes to move the chair and my old time neighbor (nice guy really) comes out and starts yelling at her saying it's my spot, etc. He eventually realized it was my GF and that I saved the spot for her.

Moral of my story is that folks in Baltimore uphold that "un-written" law that if you dig a spot out, it's yours if you mark it with a chair. They would probably shoot at your truck if you plowed their chairs in some neighborhoods in Baltimore, and I'm not kidding.

 

Snow? What is snow? hahaha I live in the only state that hasn't gotten any this year. lol

 

No I don't destroy just to destroy. I was trying to be humorous. It is junk in the street and according to the laws in our town, it is illegal. And not only that, it looks like crap.

The saving of spots is assinine, really. The cops hate it, we hate it and the govt officials hate it. The streets belong to all the citizens. It's the South Side losers who bring their bad habits to our city.

Not here to get into any verbal saber fights, just goofing around.

 

I have a 2wd and i wish i had a 4x4 but i found out the best way to drive it in snow is turn the over drive off i am in Maine and we just got 12 inch of snow in 12 hrs but had no problem. but i have been stuck with this truck 4 times sense i bought the truck Monday.

 

Check the Owner's Manaul for 4WD operation.


I plowed snow yesterday for 16 hours with a 2001 F-250 V-10; I got stuck five times--I unstuck myself five times. The snow is deep and I am right sick of it. That V-10 F250 is really a great truck and I like plowing with that more than I do with the larger vehicles. It was my task yesterday to blow holes through impassable streets so the FD Ambulance could have access to emergency events. The F-250 did the job.
