Default Oh the weather outside is frightful...

...but in Florida is so delightful.
And since we've got a picture share,
Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow!

With other parts of the country receiving record snow and harsh weather, I thought I'd share a pic after washing the car in some nice 65 weather this morning.

What does the weekend look like for everyone else?

Post up your holiday GS pics.

Happy Holidays and be safe.

Wish I was in Florida. I'm in GA visiting the parents. It's clear blue skies, upper 40s.

The Michelin PS2s have to be warmed up here before the GS460 can be let loose!

We're having snow at my parents house in Atlanta. I stole one of the interior parking spots since my summer tires are out of action.

How does your AWD do in the snow and ice? Got to test mine out the other and was surprised that it could still spin but overall i thought it did ok.
