Now that is entertainment! I was doing that the other day with my Eagle and my transfer case shield underneath the drivers seat was compacted with snow and the next day I heard one heck of a clunk clunk clunking noise. I thought my u-joints were out. looked underneath and it was snow/iced up.

I didn't get to play that much yesterday.. the roads up here were pretty bad even for the Eagle.
Went to the store early before the idiots got out. But had more snow after that and then couldn't get the Eagle out till I put some weight in it and turned it around to drive forward out of my driveway.

We finally got some meaningful snow in Denver, I'm guessing we'll end up with 8-10" total.  I'm digging the new windshield line on the Kammback!

I always enjoy seeing your Kammback! It is so refreshing.

Believe the aero package may be improved but visability may be a slight problem.

Well, 8-10 inches of snow can't hide how capable those kammbacks look or how much fun a person could have driving one of them. Nice picture......thanks for sharing.

This makes me laugh because you got 10 in Denver and here in KC we got over a foot, but they are great in the snow.

Any savings in gas would be lost by having to guess where I'm going!

A foot of snow is hardly a challenge for an Eagle!

So true. My issue was that my poor Eagle is not up to snuff.  Bad suspension. Engine has power issues but it did pretty good.
