But, no pipes froze and nothing collapsed.

sorry quote system seems now working so good

Hey Dave, and Streetglide

Dave, being out in Western Pennsylvania and

Streetglide being closer to Baltimore, who was most blizzarded?

Sure seems like Dave was more inconvenienced.

Maybe rates as the most storm inconvenienced EA member

Who wins as the most blizzardest?

Or still some other members who maybe haven't been able

to get online yet?

BTW, S. Califo-nia is warm, sunny, shirt sleeve weather.

I can see the frozen water you call, "snow" on distant mountains.

I know you enjoy your four seasons.

This winter in this part of Colorado we've had temperatures twenty degrees below normal followed by two feet of snow at the beginning of December. The snow got hard packed and icy because the temps stayed so far low and then another two feet of snow on top of that. It stayed cold well below normal and almost never got above freezing in the daytime and so nothing would melt as normal. And then in one week's time we got another three feet of snow. Whereas the snowfall isn't that extraordinary and neither the temperatures also the combination and the timing of it all have been HELL. Three major roofs have collapsed in the area so far this year.

Blizzard, blizzard....

That was such a cool find.

I gave you a reputation hit.

How fast can it travel? How many Km/L (Miles/gallon)?

Bravo find, thanks.

Thanks for the reputation.

It uses original power train (except for the differential) of the car.

For the variant with Niva:

Weight (fully loaded): 2500kg (tracks, frame and controls- 700kg)

Top speed: 80km/h

Efficiency: 20liters/100km (original car's efficiency was around 10-14liters/100km)

It looks this thing is relatively old news - it is 2006.

Yeah thats kinda cool but a sad comparison to what is on the market here in the states. I have driven a Ford F-350 with a set on way impressed to bad my company didn't buy them for my truck.

Okay, for us loyal to English units,

like half the Mars polar probe on English units and the other half on metric, oops.

Our Russian/Russky friend reports this demonstrated vehicle can go up to

50 MPH

with a rating of 11.7 MPG on a 62 mile course. But at what speed?

Suffer YOU metrics as GOD's wrath
