Are the Snow pictures from Monday? I heard on the news Columbus got 2-4 inches of snow we didn't get any snow here in Northeast,Ohio on Monday.
Yup, from Monday morning. The snow started about an hour before my drive, and it snowed harder/hardest during rush hour.

Does anyone have noise at start up?….. like a phaser rattle? Does it go completely away after the older the vehicle gets?

One thing not discussed is that FWD Hybrids have the twist beam rear suspension still which can't be aligned and provides a much stiffer ride. I could be wrong but I still think that is the case.

Lucky you ….Ohio weather lately has been terrible
Ohio always gets revenge, though. EVERY time we've gone south there has been ONE more snow fall after we return, no matter when we return. I'm planning to bag February AND March returns and start thinking April... though this year I'm thinking I coulda' stayed till July...

Afraid really high humidity would cure me of that real quick!

Yeah, I would too. Ohio ain't home and while I don't hate it, I'm not very attached either. Through 20 years in the USAF I lived all over and have visited lots n lots of places; pretty much everywhere in the US. Where I grew up in Northern Pennsylvania is too rural and has it's share of crappy weather so there's no going back there for me. Not sure where I'd go, seems like the halfway decent places have gotten so 'spensive or crime-ridden that they hold no allure and like the Eagles sang; call someplace paradise and kiss it goodbye.

As soon as my wife and I are the oldest living people in our families we're headed for coastal Oregon. You can live on a small lake AND be within walking distance of the Pacific. The forest and a river is fine as well. Mountains everywhere. The hardest part will be where in Oregon. All I know is my Mav will be there.
