If it's as bad as they say, like it was in 2007 or worse, we will probably have 6"+ on the ground a few times. It was deep enough that my Mustang high centered on the rear diff and I had to dig it out... and that was in my driveway. Cost me 2 weeks of work over all, which is about what a beater would have cost me. If it's supposed to be even worse this year, I can buy a beater, drive it on the worst days, then sell it in the spring lol.
