New TT Hell

The new car is in the garage in Vail. Snow is everywhere. The streets probably won't clear until late March to get it on the road. At least I'll have the PCM figured out.......

You have a home in Vail and we're supposed to feel sorry for you?
Congrats on the pickup. Remember it's AWD. Slap some snows on that thing and enjoy it!

I spend a lot of time in CA and have come to the conclusion that CA is expensive because it is worth it.

Violins

Yeah, yeah, I know. I didn't expect much sympathy. But come June, we have some great drives out of here! I guess I'll go ski some new powder to get over my depression.

snow tires and a ski rack are your best friends. man up and enjoy the white stuff to its fullest.

I truly know what you mean. The weather in the Northeast has been miserable. I picked my new 2010 TT up in late January and I've only been able to drive it twice. At this pace the break in will take till Memorial Day.
Since this is my first post on this site I've posted a few pics of my new baby. That's about all I can do now. Read and post pics. What a shame.
I have to say this Turbo forum is very informative. Nice to be a part of it.

nice looking car. you can never go wrong with black/black


but let me reiterate... GET SOME SNOW TIRES AND DRIVE!!

CT and boston have had similar winters. my MOTHER (52 yrs old) daily drives her 6spd 997tt. if she can handle the white stuff, i should hope you can to.
