Just to take a poll, for those guys who live in the northern states, do you guys drive your stangs in the winter?

Park It

You might as well because you'll move about the same distance(nowhere) when it snows and you'll save a lot of frustration.

yea, i drive mine but when its snowing i leave it in the garage and have co-workers drive me to work. it kills me to drive in the salt so it sits for weeks at a time sometimes.

I drive in the snow with mine, although i just killed my last motor doing so. You really just have to learn to overcompensate for everything, take it slow and have patience. Some skill and luck both help also.
