I live in the City of Buffalo, where they don't plow very good or very often, and as bad as last winter was, I did not get stuck once.

I live in South Buffalo. I didn't get stuck at all either, but an AWD vehicle handles a lot better in general in the snow. Practically my entire drive is highway, so being able to drive at a more normal pace would be nice. In order to take back roads, I end up driving straight down Bailey and through the East side. Not really my favorite thing to do.

I still get compliments on it. I don't care much for the big one, just the small one.

Test drive one before you make that statement. Seriously, I don't find a problem with it, and I owned a Grand Prix before. In fact, it's much better in the snow than my Grand Prix. The traction control in my GP made it difficult to get unstuck in the winter. This car is just so much better, as little as it is.

They have great torque at a stop because nothing beats electrics off a stop line... hence why they are great around town that i will not knock. but once that prius is doing above 35 and it requires use of its what 1.8 or 2.0 naturally aspirated fart motor i couldn't handle it.. 90% of my commute is thru-way where i need to do 80 drop down to 60 cause some jackwagon in a prius thinks they are entitled to the far left lane and then be doing 80 again

Well I just don't speed. i just drive in the right lane and use cruise control. I don't need anymore speeding tickets or driving school. Not worth it.

I either have the option of speeding in the left lane or barely moving in the right lane during my commute. I choose the speeding lane, because frankly, sitting in slow moving traffic is not my idea of fun.

Driving in rush hour traffic on the 90/290 every day for the last 3 years has made me a much more aggressive driver than I used to be.

when I'm on 90 and am getting to the 24 exit for Albany everyone is completely confused because it is a left hand exit... so you have everyone who would be in the right handed lane going slow for the exit in the left lane 5 miles before the exit...so you really have to time your switch to middle lane go faster then move to the left lane so you can exit... its a pain

I've found that the middle lane is the worst. I swear it's all the people who are indecisive that drive in that lane. They can't commit to whether or not they need to exit or what. And if you pass them and then move back into the middle lane in front of them, they then decide it's appropriate to tailgate you.

yeah that will do it.. i am going on jobsites and need to "be professional" and i get a new truck about every 4 years... so its not worth it for me to do that. i put about 30,000 to 40,000 miles on per year

That is usually the case, but morning commute here middle lane from exit 25-24 is the way to go.

Also random fact Albany traffic on Tuesday is the worst

I think he deserves to be in the lineup, especially from what's been said about legwand, which is that he basically can't keep up anymore.

Just hit my 2 years with her and just ticked over 21k

Time for a new one within the next 6-9 months or so.

I agree but I wouldn't be surprised to see him start on bench over the vet Legwand same with COLAIACOVO starting on bench and Weber playing. Both will likely play themselves onto the bench.

Switch Larsson and Legwand. Not sure if McCormick will be cleared to play. Send Legwand to Rochester.

Didn't Murray actually say something like he "wasn't sure if there was going to be a spot for Legwand?"

Larsson/Reinhart might be nice on the 3rd line with a veteran.
But im not sure if McGuinn is a 4th liner.
