• 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... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

Sideshot Sunday

Currently mid 50s here in the NW suburbs of Chicago and our driveway never looked so good :love:7CB01AA6-F405-46B2-B282-FCED367BC482.webp

What tires are you running? How's the handling in the snow? AWD?
Factory Michelins. Yes, AWD. They are some of the better factory tires I've had in the snow and are still holding up well.

Got like 5" today and went through a couple 18" spots where the plows had blocked up the intersection without trouble.

On the road in Paducah, KY at Dippin’ Dots corporate HQ.
That's a great looking vehicle right there! Would you mind sharing which Thule model that is? I'm in the market and narrowed down to a 2 or 3 models I like, curious to know which one that is and your thoughts if you don't mind. Thanks!

Thanks. That is the Thule Force XT/L. It’s the 16 cu ft model and has worked fine for my needs. I’m never going to haul long skis because I don’t like cold weather anymore. Mostly camping gear and overflow from the back of the Telly.

Awesome, thanks. I'm leaning XL of either the Force or Motion, but was worried it would be too big on the roof. Seeing the L on yours makes me think the XL will still be fine. Gonna be needing to use the 3rd row for passengers come the spring so almost all of our beach gear will go up top.

Thanks again!
