Lol been doin that for awhile now

 

My 100th post

 

whooo! lol

 

Hey ol dixie. I recently moved from kc to st louis. Keep me in the loop about this 4 day camping wheeling trip. I have a 00 sport that hasnt been initiated yet. Myabe going to colorado next week. Might know some jeepers from kc that would make that camping trip down south.

 

Ya I'm in kc and am interested in this trip, just depends when

 

i put a thread up in midwest that has all the infor. not exact dates yet but ill post em there when theyre decided.

 

tomorrow in bloomsdale MO custom differentials mud bash. doors open at 8. gonna be fun. were bringing a huge BBQ pit so bring some beers and some food and get muddy and hang out with us!!

 

How much snow did everyone get last night? We got around 2-3 inches, and MODOT forgot to clear the roads. The drive to school was... interesting.

 

Only got a half inch here, and its all gone =\

 

Funny, this MoDot worker was out all night for that piddly little amount of snow. Where my vaction home is, Cotopaxi Colorado, they don't even come out unless there is 4+ inches of snow. Every time we get a little skiff of snow people crash and slide off all over the place, now that is interesting, LOL

 

Our road didn't see a plow until Noon lol, but Franklin and Gasconade Counties always suck. And yeah it's pretty sad that winter catches us off guard in JANUARY

 

Do you live on a main road or secondary? Modot buildings all have what are called continous treatment routes. They are the main routes for those paticular counties. We are not allowed to touch anything considered a secondary route until the storm has stopped and the continous treatment routes are clear. If by some chance we have a extra truck we can start the secondary routes early. Secondary are generally all double lettered routes, BB, RA, WW and single lettered routes, A,B you get the idea. Numbered main routes are normally but not always two digit routes. 97,32,39. I reread my previous post and it sounds like I am trying to be a smart ***. I am not, I just here alot of people complain about the guys out plowing the road and they don't have any control on policy and what roads get cleaned first, if at all. Ok I am off my soapbox now.

 

You're fine, that makes a lot of sense. I live on a secondary (lettered road) but even Highway 50 hadn't been cleared when I came through at 7:45. When my Dad came through at 6, all of the trucks were sitting at the shed in Drake. We usually tend to get overlooked because we're in the same county as Washington and Union, so they usually get priority (or at least it seems like it). Besides, even when they did plow it didn't help much. Too cold.

Oh, and I'm certainly not bashing on you guys, plow drivers don't get near the respect they deserve. It's the people running the show that really aggravate me. I've never seen a group of people that seem to care less about doing their jobs effectively.

 

I live in South St. Louis city and we got a few inches. This was the first time I got to play in the (little bit we had) snow with my new Duratracs and the lockers & gears. The XJ went like a champ.

I'm actually looking forward to more snow now

 

I put a set of duratracs on my wifes DD wrangler before last winter, they are AWESOME in the snow.
