Snow has finally arrived here in the mountains of southern WV. My huskies
love it and so do I!
Wednesday my wife and I drove from DC to Oglebay Resort at Wheeling, WV for
a couple of days of what I will euphemistically call R&R and then Friday we
came on home. The entire trip involved what most would regard as nasty
weather. Rain at first on Wednesday followed by snow and snow covered
roads for the rest of the trip. The quattro handles those conditions with
ease. I was able to comfortably (and perfectly under control) cruise at
speeds at least 15 mph above that of mere cars and 4 by 4's. The main
caution is to watch the traffic and conditions far enough ahead in order to
permit action appropriate for the "then current laws of physics". :-) A
lowered coefficient of friction requires a greater stopping distance.
This morning I look out to see at least 6-8 inches of new overnight
snow. Let's go quattroing!
