Road salt

Unfortunately it's getting to be that time of year in PA.
This video popped up on my youtube. I know the topic has been discussed here. It's nothing new, and won't change anything, but it's the first I've heard it brought to the general public's attention.

Just rock me to sleep tonight BC will ya!

Washed and waxed my 4R yesterday. She’s still only seen snow twice at 42k miles, only once on purpose…Caught a bad squall on the way home from Penns in March one time. I try to get it out once a month or so over the Winter, just to run it, but I try to find a window where it’s rained at least once since the last snow AND the roads are completely dry. It’s definitely sat 6 weeks or more (not really good for it) waiting for such a window before. But my wife said I’m allowed to “keep” one vehicle. And I intend to keep this one. So I really try to not let it see salt period.

Gotta do my daily yet for the Winter. She doesn’t get quite the life of the 4R.

But yeah, not good for our water clearly either. Everyone who I’ve ever known who has driven a car on snow tires (the new “all-weather”, not “all-season”, category are pretty good too) once, immediately buys them. Yes, they make that much of a difference. Give me tires, keep the salt.
