Leveled the playing field.....
Just outfitted the E with studless snow tires. Well, except for the stud in the driver seat. ZING!
Bridgestone Blizzak WS60 in narrow 235/40 and 255/35 18" on the E63 P30 wheels. Bring it on, Old Man Winter!
Was also was able to take back the OEM SL600 Alphards that were on the E-Class this fall.
Poor car looks so pitiful riding on those, at stock ride height.

Wife balked at it, because it's a "wagon".....I love it though.....so not sure.
The Rover dealer just (5 minutes ago) called me and made me an aggressive offer to just buy her Rover outright, without trading. Carmax style....
He really wants it...
Don't laugh, but I was looking at the 2011-2012 Explorer Limited with all the bells, including the new Ford MyTouch....not Sync, but MyTouch. That thing is VERY nice....I almost couldn't believe it....

Doesn't tick the right boxes. I'd keep the Rover over an SRT jeep 10s times out of 10.
Looking the get smaller, better MPG. Rover costs about $500 per month in fuel, and it's never going to be worth more than it is right now. I can't believe how strong this truck is in the used market. Now is the time to sell it....

Looks like you are ready to challenge those big trucks that race across the ice !!!
Hopefully the Mid-Atlantic won't have the brutal winters we have recently seen with those noreasters. But considering what is going on right now in the southwest, you never know.
Good move in maximizing the sale of the Range. Just make sure on the next buy you just don't settle.
Good Luck and hopefully most of the snow this winter will be up on the ski slopes !!!
In Atlanta, we just leave our cars in the garages and just wait it out !!!
