Just got my new 330i and all we've had is frigid temps and ice and snow! And this week's forecast?.... MORE of the same and even colder!

We all need to go somewhere warmer and be guaranteed to make more money! How's that?

Eh, looks pretty :) It's better than cold and boring. I guess that is also because I live in Boston so I don't have to drive anywhere lol.

disagreed...

the E90 330i is a BLAST to drive in the snow! donuts galore!

and as far as compensation goes New England in general is higher on the list than most other 'regions'... unless you are going close to other major cities....

Yea .. I mean if it's going to be cold I guess I don't mind the snow for a little bit, but I haven't seen grass in a good few weeks it seems :-\.

I'm sick of NE weather, definitely getting a place in CA or FL when I start making the big bucks :P

Having moved here from Florida, I can honestly say this is so much better than mid-August in Florida. Trust me.

This is actually quite fun! I can't wait for the next blizzard. Noreaster anyone???

Maybe it's all personal, but I certainly would prefer warmth over cold.

I agree! I frequently traveled to Orlando with my last job... July and August are just brutal humidity... while I was unemployed last year I did spend almost 3 weeks in Ft. Lauderdale/ West Palm... came back and was black from beach, ocean and pool everyday... so relaxing!!!

i don't mind the snow, and as far as the salt on the road... yea it sucks but w/e, it does no noticable damage to the paint because my car still looks perfect come spring time

what pisses me off is winter for us is between nov-april now..... it still snows and is still freezing cold in march and april

wtf ever happened to march and april being in the 50's and 60's?
seems like it just goes from 40 - 80 in a month

While I can do without snow, I don't mind the cold all that much. I can always get warmer when it's cold, but have a harder time getting cooler when it's hot.

I recall spending time in Florida that would frustrate me. It gets too hot in the sun to be able to wash your car without getting water spots, so you have to have a garage. Unfortunately, that's where it has to spend a lot of time if you really detail the paint, because the thunderstorms that move through everyday at 4:00pm suck.

My brother has been in Durham NC for the last 6 years or so. I really like visiting him there, the weather really is a nice balance. I think that's where I will want to relocate to once both sets of aging parents are no longer in need of our attention and companionship. No chance of getting them to move.

Well considering the state only puts down the salt, they don't do anything about trying to remove it.

It's not that it's warm - it's that it's unbearable. Try high 90s with 70% humidity for 5 months straight. It's really only 80 with low humidity for a month per year.

question: why would anyone want to move to florida? too hot and muggy. gotta live in coastal socal. south enough to never be cold, enough of an ocean breeze to never be too warm.

hmm socal? Yeah I'm not really interested in earthquakes, brush fires that consume everything and all the fake ass people...

And moving to florida is ok for like 4 months a year, but since Im not retired yet... Ill stick to New England and complain about the snow for 4 months a year... and the rest of the bizarre weather we have the other 8 months a year
