WINTER MODE

The tires on the Snowblower were oem. From I think early 80's or late 70's! The only thing added was the electric start.

Which was full of awesomeness when I was tuning the driveline engagement. I was getting tired of pull starting it every time I tested the engagement.

I had a bit of a lightbulb, and remembered the electric start. oh and the mice parts are all out. I have a nice mouse hide, I am thinking of making a jacket for my GI Joe.

 
i love the black front calipers and the red rear

so i might be in the market for some winter tires because i dont know if AWD will be enough and i think ill need that extra help of a dependable tire. i'm currently using goodyear assurances with triple tread technology

I tried those same Goodyear tires on my 01 Outback and after 35K miles went back to Blizzacks. Like nite & day.

 
You ever get a coat of wax on that pig before winter?

Come drop it off to me some weekend when I'm at the firehouse. If its a slow day I can wax it up good.

 
Hmm...snow mode...
