Back then there was a few warm days leading to the storm and I didn't have my hardtop on. My vinyl rear window was also no existent, replaced by a clear shower curtain and two-sides foam tape. In a pinch it was excellent but the wind and highway speed made it scary at times.

So I'm on the highway with my 40lbs bags in the rear, and maybe a smaller one on the interior sun deck. I see my exit. It's not a popular one so it has not been plowed in awhile and although I'm only going a snails pace of no more than 25, the turn of the wheels in the newly fallen snow take my little nugget into the closest ditch. Yup, I've though about it in my spare time.
