Yikes. And I was just reading about Fredericksburg—folks stuck in their cars over night in 14 inches of snow.

Yeah, chains or snow tires. KO2 are mostly snow rated so no chains for me.

Funny to see a bunch of people with chains on driving on dry road. The pic I posted was off the main road. I did see a Camry get stuck driving slightly off the main road.

I absolutely loved my 4th Gen T4R. I truthfully do not have anything nice to say about my 5th Gen other than it made me want my 4th Gen back.

Funny I was just about to say this when I saw your comment. Classic size and lines.
