Default Snow Plow For C5 ?

Anyone know where I can get a snow plow for my C5 ? With 345 HP, and top speed of 172 mph, I figure it won't take long to do my driveway !

Ah, just kidding, but 2 inches of snow in southern Maryland today (1/19/05) has "snow bound" my daily driver

Just lower your C5 and drive it - the rubber air dam will act like a natural plow

A little bit more snow, and your car would be a snow plow.

Not to Hijak, but... Last week I was in Stu's and Stangkiller's backyard at a conference at UCF in Orlando. Lovely low 80's weather, good times in a college town. Came home, my basement was flooded, I mean FLOODED. Drying out now. Now, to the point, I started the snow blower tonight after work. Letting it warm up, at about the 7 minute mark it throws the push rod right through the damn crank case. So.... I got your snow plow! When is snows, it freakin' pours!!!
