12 Cars of Christmas – #5 Dashing Through the Snow
Editor’s Note: We’re getting into the Holiday Spirit this year! Sometimes the littlest things can bring a big smile to your face, and that’s exactly where this 12 Cars of Christmas idea came from. I was scrolling through some of my favorite social media outlets and Christmas-inspired hot rods kept popping up in my feed. I decided to reach out to some of these owners, do a little investigating on my own, and bring you (in no specific order) 12 Cool Cars that really took the holiday festivities to another level!
12 Cars of Christmas – #5
I thought Mark Bonnalie (@freedom_files on Instagram) described his recent trip in his Ford F100 truck perfectly, so in his own words…
“This past Sunday, December 13th we drove upriver to Orofino, Idaho like we do each and every winter to traipse through the deep snow in hopes that a perfect Charlie Brown Christmas Tree would say…‘Psst…Hey you, I’m the one! Take me home!’”
“The temp was 28 degrees and the road from my Mom and Dad’s house up the hill was slick as all get out. I thought I had the Ford ready for anything but with the slick conditions and then noticing all my rear tire studs were gone, turned our adventurous snow day in the Ford into more of a ‘let’s go find our tree and get off the mountain!’”
“On our way down the hill we stopped and visited with my parents. My Mom was making Christmas Wreathes and sent us home with ours. Lots of hugs and smiles. Just about a perfect day.”
“As you can see, we found our tree for Christmas 2020…not too big, not too small. Life’s good. And I think good gets better. Merry Christmas from mine to yours. Life’s short. Drive far. See lots. Enjoy it all like you could lose it tomorrow…”
