Did you stick it in 6 times?
That's a personal best, isn't it?

Looks like when I drove from NJ to Toronto in December once. I don't think there was less than 3" of snow on the road the whole way from PA to Buffalo.... Sketchy and windy with a lot of trucks blown over on I90 in NY.

And that is a big part of why I'm really glad I don't live in Idaho anymore...

We made it. Today was the easiest day by far. All packed snow or dry pavement.

Up at 8000ft 5th gear is absolutely useless in the Jeep. Wont hold any faster than 50mph. But we got 14mpg cruising at 70-80 in 4th gear.

So you drove a Jeep through some snow, went down some hills during the process.
Isn't this like, what Jeeps do?

Congratulations on your trip.

I actually really like the cold. If I had a well heated shop and a house I wouldn't mind it. But an apartment complex, pass. Happy I'm going back to Oregon tomorrow.

Does the oil pressure gauge not work, or?

Takes 10 seconds to build oil pressure. I think the oil might be gelling a bit.
