In DFW, we've typically got to leave it in the garage for about 7 days. Today was one of those days.
What do you drive during the winter? A beat up Subaru or a Toyota 4 wheel drive, where you don't go into convulsions when it's bumped?

sadness In my opinion is understatement
winter depression is kicking in hard here only thing that keeps me going is when I go to garage and admire my F10 and dreaming about driving in sunny days

I live in Michigan too and I hate getting the car all messy and salted up but it's my DD so I just deal with it the best I can. The xdrive is a beast in the snow though especially with the lard ass weight of the 550.

Not all of us have a second car, so my F10 will have to suck it up. This is from yesterday, only a few inches. But we are currently in the middle of a storm now that will leave us with 18" by tonight

Why miss your beast. I drive it through any type of weather. Must have a good set of snows, of course.
Its a lot of fun driving in snow, pushing the stability and traction controls to the limits.
