I hate snow <_<

Drive with extra care. Or don't drive at all. I know last winter there were a few days when i simply left the car untouched.

My M5 was covered with 6" of snow this morning.

Had no problem getting the car up the icey & snow covered back roads, just left her in P400, had DSC fully on & switched to the least aggresive gear change setting.

Install Night Vision and save yourself the hassle of scraping snow off of the windows. Or am I missing the point of that feature?

I'm driving back to Wiesbaden from The Netherlands today, so hope all that snow is gone - the first snow showers always end up in chaos :'(
