Playing with your M37 during the winter months

Winter is upon us. Many of you from "up north" enjoy driving your M37's during the winter in the ice and snow.
Those of us from the southern tier never get a chance to experience that while still wearing shorts and t-shirts in the winter months. Snow..... That's the white stuff that falls from the sky north of the Mason Dixon line, right?
So how about you post some winter pic's of you using your M37's, driving, plowing snow or just a winner scene of your truck?
BTW.. I saw a "snow shovel" listed on EBay.... What the hell is that thing?

Between the brine and salt they treat the roads with around these parts my truck goes into hibernation in the winter months, I'd hate to see it rot out like everything else around here.

Thanks Carter... I've seen some pics in the past and knew you kept your M37's active in the winter. Plowing snow and having fun.

one of the reasons i bought the m43 was to have something solid to drive in snow.
i will just powerwash the undercarriage once in a while
i used to LOVE joyriding in blizzards with my willys jeep

Holy-moly Gary. Saw the pic's in the "soap box" section. 4 to 5 feet of snow? Must be a blast driving your "M" in this kind of weather.
Keep those winter pic's coming.
Thanks,
Jerry

Yes indeed! Lots of fun and some incredulous looks when I ramble past those Outbacks, Jeeps, and Avalanches going through the snow! i just posted some more in my Soap Box post.
The other day one of my neighbors stopped me and she said "I saw your tire tracks in the road the other day-looks like you were the only one able to move around last Monday." So far I've not had to air down the tires;
Top priority (take note you new guys) is to regularly check your gear boxes after these excursions or you may wish that you had. Mine all weep and it's easier this time of year to keep them topped off as opposed to fixing the leaks.
