Midwest blizzard is here...few pics...

Well it pretty much came outta no where. Predicted to get up to a foot of snow. We already have 6 inches and its not stopping till friday night i guess. Winds of up to 45mph later today and tomorrow. Good thing the snow is some what wet so it wont blow as bad. Just ran to town to get some groceries and some other things and i had a helluva time getting there and back. Took gravel roads and busted my way through the drifts. Its a good thing i dont have an FX3.5 or i would be digging myself out yet

Annd my parents are in Mexico for a week. I called them and told them i hope they get the worst sunburn ever haha. They are suppoce to fly in friday night but i dont see that happening. So they will be stuck in memphis, tennessee for a day or so. I just hope the power doesnt go off or ill have my hands full........................

He's just jealous that his "4x4" spins just as many tires as my 4x2.

No twice as many. Depends if all 4 want to spin, or 3 or just 2. haha. You only get one tire spinning.

You might not have been around here long enough to understand why your really only driving an FX3.5. Ford just put FX4 stickers on since it looked better

Na, i really really wish i had the limited slip rear end in times like these. But, its nice having an open rear end when your pulling a trailer on ice and snow otherwise its pretty easy to lose control when posi is locked in. Id be satisfied if i just had new tires on my hog.
