I love how my neighbor does a better job plowing our road with his 20-some-year-old pickup than the city does with their fancy dump trucks.

Also, what size filter did you get kev

dont remember lol. I hate plowed roads because the thin icy crap and mag chloride is slicker than snow, plus makes everything rust to death. I'd be happy if tax dollars for snow plows went to winter driving classes for everybody instead.

I know unplowed roads are better, but half-*** plowed roads are the worst.

Yea, if they would only just plow the roads better then it wouldn't eat the **** out of our vehicles, but at least they don't put salt on the roads like the Midwest

They only put down sand here actually, that is when they actually plow.

Here it is plowed, sand and mag chloride. And the **** barely helps. And it looks like my jeep has sweat stains after all the mag chloride gets on it. And I was going around a round about earlier and went to turn and it kep going straight so I hit the brakes and made the wheel straight and just hit the curb and went into the sidewalk haha.

the mag chloride is almost worse than salt. It attacks aluminum more than steel but still causes rust.
Ever feel the water on the roads with the mag chloride in it? I think we would get better traction if they slicked the roads down with 80W-90
