Snow Performance

I had to drive mine once in March in 3". I live near Cincy I don't get near as much snow as Cleveland. The car drove MUCH better than I anticipated, I had the stock 17" PNero tires. I would go with a dedicated snow tire/rim combo. Good luck!

Hi fellas. I've always wanted to own a Mustang, but now that I'm finally in a position to buy one, I have to move to Cleveland. Aka, "the mistake on the lake." And I'm worried that my rear-wheel drive 'Stang won't handle well in Cleveland's 50+" of annual snowfall. Anyone here have any experience with Mustangs in the snow? Any advice or inside info is much appreciated! Thanks!

I test drove one in the snow in 05 and it handled exceptionally well considering it is a rear wheel drive with little weight in the back. This one was a stick so an automatic would likely be a little worse. In the end i would not want to drive it everyday in the snow. Do what i did: i bought a used V6 4Runner for $1500 to drive in the winter. Plus my wife sold her Tahoe so no way to haul anything without the Toyota anyway (she bought an LS).
