i'll grab a shot of mine, but after last nights minimal snowfall combined with high winds, my jeeps look like they were caught in "the day after tomorrow".. like they were suddenly frozen on the spot... kinda cool looking...

Love that generation of Pathfinders. Always wanted a five-speed SE with the 3.5. Would make a good beater/utility vehicle for me at this point but they're tough to find in good shape.

For some reason my Iphone refuses to take a decent photo in anything but perfect daylight. So here's the best I was able to get (without grabby a legit camera).

Sonoma and Spitfire sleeping in the foreground, SLK sleeping up above. Both birds in the driveway, the red one completely salted in :( and the grey one waiting for warmer weather and attention. Behind the grey bird barely visible is our Santa Fe long-term tester, also covered in salt.

Oh, and a worn out spitfire transmission looking for a new home, currently resides on the garage floor.

Maybe the other half loves cars as is my case?  I'd have 8 cars if budget/garage space permitted....

Indeed, and same here.

My retirement will ideally consist of three primary daily activities.
1. managing my investment portfolio
2. cooking
3. tending to the stable of cars.

That's really all I want out of life.

Ideally, I want a 400 sq ft house and a 10,000 sq ft garage.   ;D

Always remember : you can sleep in your car, but you can't drive your house. :)

No reason you can't sleep in the garage either.  I've done it before.   ;D

Lol, well officially I have 8. The MGB, Lotus and Camaro are all in the garage at my Grandmother's place.

Ron's right though, my other half likes cars....Not to the degree that I do, but she does enjoy them. Space is my only real obstacle right now, I am pretty much tapped out. Few mores years here in Miserysauga and then I'll move out a little further into something with a larger garage/shop

Double edged sword, however.  At times, I'll be thinking "I don't really need another/different car!" and she'll be saying "You most certainly need another/different car!".   :rofl2:

That's a serious snow beard you've got growing there.  Or, to put it another way:
