So, how bad is driving a vette in the kind of snow we see up and down I5? I just bought mine, wondering how I'll do driving to work if we get any snow. I'm sure I'll do fine, just wondering what everyones experience has been.

Funny you mention warmer weather, as I was checking out year round weather patterns for northern Arizona !

I'm thinking about it.... If only I could find a job there that pays me what my current job here pays me hmmm....

My kingdom for some warm weather !

I had to drive home in that. What a mess. Drove real slow. Luckily made it home safe and sound (35 miles from Astoria to Ocean Park) 34 degrees and snow.

I'm right there with you. If I can find a job in Arizona (southern) or the Texas hill country area that pays me what I make here or very close to it I'm gone. I'd rather have 10+ months of sunny, hot weather and take it for granted than only 2 months of "nice" weather and cherish every moment.

I absolutely love the scenery here. It is a beautiful state, but at a cost. I grew up in Coos Bay, Or. Used to the weather, cold, wet etc... It is really starting to wear on me, bad... My only problem with southern Az would the spouse. Anything with regular temps over say 90 and forget it...

I promised her a heat pump/AC but that didn't seem to make a difference...

I think I'll miss her

Glad I took the Vette out yesterday. Looks like it's the WRX for another few days.

Good luck! I have a set of Firestone Firehawks ESP. I backed out of my garage onto the driveway that has a slight slope and about 1/2 inch of snow and almost didn't get back into the garage.
