It's almost too cold in my garage. I had to wear a jacket and thermal socks working on my car in the garage even with the 1500W heater on full blast. The doors don't insulate very well.rs4rush;1207581 said:

Great looking Supra. To bad you have to drive it in the ice & snow but ya gotta do what ya gotta do. Been there myself. If you know before hand about a good chance of freezing rain wrap your windows in plastic. It worked for me very well. I got rolls of 6 mill plastic from Home Depot. I pre sprayed the glass with prestone de-icer & Wrapped the windshield & part of the side windows cutting off excess. I left enough on each side to close in the doors to secure it. When I got ready to leave for work I would just pull the plastic sheet off along with the nasty snow & ice in just a cpl minutes.
No Sir.
When you start doubling and tripling the factory horsepower output on these cars,
They don't cling well to anything other than dry pavement.
With that said, I've learned my lesson to keep the Supra(s) in the garage and/or under a car cover for the rough weather.......Having worry-free daily drivers are "FTMFW".
*edit* It was and is 3 degrees here...And dropping.
Wind chill factor (AKA "Feels like") -22*F.
It's ungodly cold here in Indiana. Quite possibly the coldest it's EVER felt.

Low today was -7 locally(live on the border of MI),w/o the wind chill.Been a few years since It felt this cold.Couldn't even ride snowmobiles in it as we've had only 2 inches of snow,just crazy low temps.
Not a chance I'd DD my Supra. Jeep FTMFW.
-3 at the moment, -25 wind chill. Warmer than the last two days thank god.

We have not had as much here in Boise as of yet, it's windy as all get out though, some drifts are 12" or more deep.
Pretty much, it's about 6" at the most here. IMHO.
But it's still snowing/blowing.
I did shovel the walk, driveway and clean off both the Sedona and A8 that are in the driveway. (The Supra and FZ1 are inside the garage..)
Good news is that this week, the Van does not need to go anywhere, and I'm not on a time critical deal with work either. (When I get there, is when I get there.)
What woke me up is the 737 that slid off the runway in Denver. I was just there Thursday night/Friday morning.. We finally got into Boise about 3:40am, landing on ice and snow packed runways/ramp, and it was running through my mind that it does not take much to slide a jet off the pavement in this type of weather. (Happened to my boss a few years ago in Kalispell, MT. Nothing as serious as the crash in Denver however. That split the airframe, and ripped off a jet engine, so it was a pretty hard impact, and small fire afterwards.)

Hell yes!!!! We had now here in Houston about a week ago, 2 days later 75* and sunshine! 50-ish today. Don't like the weather here.....give it an hour and it will change. As far as a daily, Tundra FTW :biglaugh:
Wait till you guys come up north... you will see why most people including myself hate winter.
On that note, I don't drive my supra in winter, but my brother drives his. He says its wicked fun and very steady.

Still snowing here. :cry: It doesn't snow here much at all but for some reason, we have this crap.
