Drove 200 miles home through the storm yesterday. Didn't see a single vehicle in the ditch and the roads were all very clean.

I couldn't imagine living in the snow. I hate it. Shoot I even hate when it rains

My truck and I caught eyes while I walked past it in the garage... Haven't driven it all week lol. Although, while stationary in the garage, I installed some lightning corners and cleaned and conditioned the KR seats.

Just took it mudding for the first time with some buddies. It was a good time but now my ABS light is on. I'm guessing its probably just mud on the brakes and nothing to worry about? The brakes are still working fine

You probably git mud in the grooves on the axles that the abs sensors read

Its probably from trying to go through the mud in 2wd. When you do that and the back wheels are spinning but the front ones aren't, the abs system thinks theres a problem and it causes the abs light to come on. I would disconnect the battery and hook it back up and take it for a drive and see if the light comes back on.

Have to wait on the glass treatment until its warmer outside.
Went on a snowmobile trip up north last week. Ended up in a snow emergency situation. The new low beams helped a lot at 2am. The wipers rocked as well.
