• Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...

Front-End Friday

@Frankie Knuckles Let it snow !! ❄️🌨☃️

So much fun driving in Snow Mode + Lock today. Found a unplowed street and had a fun on-demand slip and slide 😂

Traction and torque distribution was even good without Lock on, but the best times were had drifting around wide open spaces and getting in some first tracks in the early morning before the plows remove the deep white powdery snow ❄️🥰❄️

Nice! Any issues with the roads leaving Big Bear? We got the blizzard/avalanche warnings here 😅
No issues this time around. Had chains on the entire time and it was on a Monday, so traffic wasn't too bad.

Mammoth is next week. I see from your posts Tahoe got blasted by that same storm this week!

What chains to you guys recommend for a 2021 Telluride SX? Is clearance an issue with the Super Z6 SZ435? Going to Big Bear in a week and don't want to rely on just Autosocks.
 
I know it is dirty, but here is the front of ours. Chrome delete and Nightfall front emblem recently installed. This weekend the TELLURIDE letters get swapped out with matte black.

Looking good. I’ll be glad when all this snow and cold leaves and I can wash and detail mine. Maybe by next weekend, fingers crossed.
Hopefully you’ll get a break from the snow and cold by then 🤞

Washing and detailing? Sounds like fun.

I enjoyed my first sad attempt at wash, dry, clay, wax a few weeks ago and will try it all again in a few weeks, but first: another trip to the snowy Sierra Nevadas and possibly Virginia City too. I’d love to get some shots of my Telly in an Old West former mining camp/town for Front-End Friday and/or Sideshot Sunday.

I hope to also get stuck in a winter storm again so I can snow mode+lock and also find some empty wide-open snow-covered parking lots to disable traction control and have some fun with the different drive modes 🤣
 
Before I give you the real reason there are two Tellurides in my driveway (Don't really have any better front end pics that's why I posted this one, the other was to mess with you) I'm going to give you my top 5 BS reasons why.

In no particular order:

1. Was going to buy an XC90 and just got
two Tellurides instead.

2. I'm building an Ark.

3. They're like jet skis - they're more fun
when you have two.

4. Couldn't decide on one color.

5. They're so rare, I decided to buy one for
parts.

I believe the real reason may actually be disclosed in your very own popular thread, @disweds12. Try post #238...😁
😂
 
Happy Belated Front-End Friday y'all !! ;)

Malibu, CA parked in front of "Real Coconut" which is a great description of the people who live in "The 'Bu" :ROFLMAO:

Parking lot of my regular weekday sunset hangout, Neptune's Net. It's an iconic PCH spot for biker gangs, car clubs and tourists on the weekends so I avoid Saturday/Sunday afternoons at all costs. Plus, you'll get brake checked 900+ times by tourists in cars who see a nice view and slam on their brakes to take a selfie in the middle of the highway. I'm not kidding.

Weekdays are awesome because y'all can park wherever y'all want to park and there's no line of people crowded inside wondering where Paul Walker and Vin Diesel sat during that afternoon scene in the original Fast and the Furious movie when Paul Walker's character says something about not being able to pay for the delicious peel-and-eat shrimp. Spoiler alert: Vin Diesel's character pays for the shrimp. This movie came out decades ago and y'all should have seen it by now. :ROFLMAO:
