i went out night snow wheeling with a buddy, his truck is on 42's it huge, it was a great night spent a probly close to 3 hrs and never got stuck to the point that i needed a tow. i was able to get myself out of every thing i got into, 90% of the time i was plowing snow with the front bumper. i did try to take a couple pics but cause it was night time they didn't turn out at all. all was good until we called it quites, got back to my friends place and sat down and had beer, and the truck completly froze up. the hood was frozen so i couldn't get under the hood at all. the throttle cable froze and the shifter linkage froze. but 2 days in the garage and a bottle methalhydrate later all was good. just thought i would share with you guys

My thoughts exactly. It March, normal temp is +1 yet its -20 with a windchill of -30. Global Warming my a$$.
On the topic of wheelin' in the snow. I went today and probably did the most gratifying thing I've done in a while...pulled out my buddies 3/4 ton Chevy diesel with 33's out of snow up to the wheel wells with my F150. I should have got a pic.
