You must just be lookin at Used.

 

Raoul, I think what it meant is the traction control kicked in, not failed.

 

Yeah, I figured that out later and just hoped nobody would call me on it.

So much for Hope.

 

A buddy of mine has a '03 330ci, and he belongs to e46fanatics.com ... little too wierd/ricey for me.

Then again... I'm a dirty ol'e redneck fool.

 

1" of snow, hog wash, you kids just do not have what it takes. Lets see -14 tuesday morning, 10" of snow, roads are a &^&^% mess, winds blowing 40+ and there i am driving 45 with the window down 60 miles to work in a rav4 4x4. It sounds like a can of pissed off bees under the hood and the left side of my face is packed with blowing snow. So i turn on the heat for bit. toughten up wuss....

 

your also driving a low powered 4x4 suv not a moderately powered Rwd german car

 

I was exaggerating about the one inch of snow.

It was actually 5/8s to 3/4 inch.

The weatherman said there was no accumulation but, he was lying his *** off, I swear.

And with the winds blowing 12 to 14 miles an hour we had snow drifts 5 to 7 inchs high.

 

Most of the people up north would chit a brick if they ran accross the black ice we get here in arkie

 

We see it in Tx from time to time. Screw everyones world here in Dallas

 

it usualy happens here within 24 hours of Dallas. I kinda use the reports in Dallas as an indicator of when we are going to get it.

 

The worst I've experienced was on the Q.E.W. heading home from Toronto just before midnight a few years ago. You could have slapped a pair of skates on and played a game of hockey across all 3 lanes. Pure black ice. There was a vehicle in the ditch every few hundred meters. You couldn't go any faster than 30 mph because you really couldn't accelerate or brake. The scariest part was when the wind would catch the back end and I'd start fishtailing. It happened a lot because the road was slick enough to allow the wind to take the truck. You needed to feather the throttle and brakes and most of the time, coast. It was a white knuckle ride to say the least.
That was back when I had a Dodge 4x4 pickup, but 4x4 meant nothing on ice, other than helping with acceleration.

 

I was once in traffic going >very slow< An impatient ******* passed me on the shoulder of the road and got crossway in front of me.
No great loss though, as I was Driving a Dodge K!

 

Now thats funny right there!!! We eat black ice and **** out the tar bits after.
