Surprisingly enough, last year Denver barely ever froze over. This year looks to be different though!

I need some skis ...and snow tires

Doesn't that drastically reduce the gas mileage?

Im guessing no more than a 100 or so. But most snow plows i see come close to the bumper not sit so far forward. Feel like leverage isn't on his side

Front-heavy snow plow balances out unibody, prevents folding in half when you remove doors. lrn2XJ
