Re: [MBZ] Made it back with the CD

2021-02-12 Thread Kaleb Striplin via Mercedes
Driving back all the way from west Texas, it was not too bad out west as nobody 
is out there so not much traffic. When I got back to Oklahoma and the 
interstate speed limit is 75 normal speed 80, myself and most people were 
driving about 60-65, with semis just flying by. I guess they did not realize 
they were basically driving on a layer of ice for the most part. Of course saw 
lots of Texas and Florida plates flying past as well. Saw several semis and 
cars off the side of the road upside down. No pileups though.

 Its tough when ice hits a place that doesn't normally have it. People aren't 
prepared, nobody has snow tires, the municipality doesn't have equipment, 
people aren't smart enough to stay home...
Actually that last point is so often overlooked "I need 4 wheel drive, I have 
to go out!" No, no you don't. Muffins the cat will do just fine if you don't 
buy more tuna until tomorrow...

Saw some news reports today of massive pileups on I35 in Texas due to ice.

Re: [MBZ] Made it back with the CD

 Was talking about the new farm with my class today and noticed that for the 
next two nights its going to be colder here than 450 miles north. Single digits 
either way but a degree or two warmer in Caribou than Winchendon.
They've got way more snow than us though.
We visited my folks in southern Maine last weekend. Driving home Sunday we got 
caught in a storm as we drove rt 101 across New Hampshire. The Jetta did fine 
but as we made the pass between Mt Pack Monadnock and Temple Mountain there was 
a car ahead of us that was just all over the road. We never saw them but you 
could see the tracks sliding across two lanes. Fortunately there is a climbing 
lane so they never went on the other side of the road. 
The Jetta doesn't have snow tires, if I'd known it was going to snow we'd have 
taken the pickup. We went to a Stupor Bowl party that evening and used the 
truck, it handled the snow no issues but its got snow tires...

[MBZ] Made it back with the CD

2021-02-11 Thread Kaleb Striplin via Mercedes
Rolled back into Okie Acres a little while ago with the CD. After 
picking it up Sunday I worked in Lubbock for the next couple of days and 
left Wednesday morning.  Most of the time I was there the temps were in 
the 70's.  When we left of course there was freezing fog all the way 
thru west texas.  Temp never got over about 25 and on roads that are 
normally 80mpg we were averaging about 60-65, so it took quite a while 
longer.  We stopped at the half way point for the night and finished the 
trip today.
