I will be truckin through another winter in the ol girl. I bought a set of Firestone Winterforce tires for my old black LX 5 speed car and this year put them on my new daily. I have no problems getting around in the snow at all. I made it up the nastiest hairpin hill in my town with ease this past storm. We got hit by 15 inches of heavy snow and I didnt have one problem getting around. These tires are amazing! They are 205's so they're nice and narrow. I also just put a new aluminum heater core in the old girl a month back so the heat is bangin. I'm hopin to unload this thing for a Marauder next summer but for now I'm fixin her up and enjoying the 5.snow as a daily for winter use.

It's only an inch or two. What's the big deal?

I don't even think mine has a heater. There's just gauges and stuff there now.

My long tubes act as the heater.

LOL, you wouldn't believe the crap I hear about those at work. But I bought it for a $1,000 with 67K on it. My buddy's grandmother bought it new and took great care of it.

Ha that's a sweet looking Olds reef. It reminds me of my old winter beater back when I lived up in MA. Save your foxes buy a beater!

Oh and snow sucks, I've made it my life goal to move as far south as possible. I grew up in MA, Army moved me to NC and finally this year to down to lovely warm FL
