Texans are NOT used to cold weather like our Yankee brothers.

It snowed!

I went to work, no one there, so I decided to go take a look at Lake Tyler. Right before I get there I come over a hill, and there at the bottom are about 10 cars, some in the ditch, all trying to make it up the hill, and a wrecker loading one car on back. I had absolutely no warning and was going about 45, so I had to hit the ditch. Not 10 seconds later a car, closely followed by a truck, both going about 50, come up behind me over the hill. Car slams on the brakes, goes sideways, and the truck also has to hit the ditch to avoid the car. Somehow they didn't hit anyone, but you could see the people standing at the bottom running out of the way.

Dumbasses.

I love this weather.

You and the truck alright?

Oh yeah, I didn't hit anything. I hit the ditch to get more traction, and to stay out of the way of the people behind me. Flipped a U and went back to work.

Yeah, I got a vid, not much going on, just testing the difference between 4 hi and 2wd. The camera doesn't do it justice. I'll post it in your thread.

Cool. I have an hour of video from yesterday's excursion that I need to go through.. For that matter, I never finished videos from Tuesday morning's outing.. I guess I need to go through that again, to see if there's anything worth posting.. :dunno:

Yeah, I found that most of the video wasn't worth it. I mainly had the camera up to catch any cool things or accidents in front of me...but I didn't put it up on the dash till after I saw the hill struggle.

Yeah, I've been putting mine up and just letting it run while I drive around.. LOTS of un-interesting stuff in there..
