[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have never been stuck in the snow in my entire 40 years of life in the DC area, so I am not anticipating that happening anything soon. Thank God you have that Hummer in case it does happen one day.[/quote]

I know, right?  The docs and nurses i shift back and forth feel just like you do, I'm sure.

Being from New Englad, i appreciate a truck. So does the medical field[/quote]

I'm in the medical field in [i]DC, which is where this forum is based,[/i] numbnuts.  The fact that Montana routinely sees 2 feet of snow on the mountain is moderately interesting, and completely irrelevant.

For the past 16 years, to get to my hospital in Bethesda from my home in DC, I have driven my sedan in all weather.  All -DC- weather.

Exactly [u]nobody[/u] in my staff parking garage drives a Hummer.    Now back to my lecture notes.[/quote]

And during larger storms here, I have helped drive for hospitals. Your experience does not change others' experiences. Should I stop helping your colleagues because you can get home?

When you grow up in consistently bad weather and have to consistently navigate it, you get really good at it. And appreciate proper tools. During the big 2' storms a few March's ago, I can guarantee your sedan was not able to drive up and down unplowed streets. You simply would not have the clearance. My truck did, which is how I got those doctors and nurses home safely.

Are you calling a Hummer a "proper tool"? There's [i]something[/i] about a Hummer that is a proper tool.[/quote]

My BIL went around during that storm in an old pickup truck and pulled people out and drove them home.  Perhaps the point is that if you're truly interested in a utilitarian vehicle that will handle well in the heaviest of snow, it's not necessary to buy and drive a Hummer the other 364 days of the year.[/quote]
