What did you do to your TJ today?

I used this same mix for my hardtop refinish and so far have been pleased. Planning on doing my bumpers (and maybe rockers) with it as well.

Actually got out in the mess for the first time since Friday, and had the 17yr old drive the jeep around to get a feel for how to actually drive in this stuff. For those not in the south, the general strategy is just wait for it to melt, but this storm was different and it is not melting at the usual rate. I grew up in Chicago so driving in snow was never an issue, but it's been close to 30 years since I lived up north, so driving in winter conditions has atrophied as a skill.

Anyway, she didn't wreck it, but I also had a hard time getting her to hit the gas and force the back end to break free. I guess we'll call that a success.

When I moved from CT to VA (originally from VT), people here were staying home for a week when it snowed 3". I drove my Camaro like the roads were clear with no problems. I think it's a mindset. My wife can't walk 10' in snow/ice without thinking she's going to fall. She has a phobia about falling on snow. I told her not to worry, "the extra weight you've gained throughout the years will soften your fall." 🤫
p.s. I just had to drive her 3 miles to work (5:45pm) because she was scared to drive. It annoys me.

Make sure to take plenty of food pics to avoid @AndyG writing you up for a forum violation. The US tariff fees would bankrupt you. ;) 🥳
p.s. I haven't taken a vacation since 1991. I had to bring my third wife on that trip and she ruined it for my GF (Florida Keys). :cry:

Took BB on a little snow run this morning, used 4wd to get to clear roads. We may have had 1/8 of an inch.......... 🤣 🤣

Checked out the BMB kit in the snow/slick roads and they out perform OEM by a mile, controlled braking was so much better. This is without a doubt the best upgrade I have done to this Jeep.

Thanks again to all who voted for me and to @mrblaine for being a sponsor and all he has done and is still doing for our community.
