Whell it snowed out yesterday, and driving in snow is no fun.

Just to let you guys know, you who dont get much snow, I think mustangs arnt good in the snowlol. All those people that say " that must be fun in the snow, hahah" are right, Actually, mustangs are basically a sled, cant accelerate, cant turn. Its bad. I have some 555 nittos on the front, and there almost bald, and woah it was really scary yesterday trying to get home from work. The rear grips ok, cause i got some new tread, but it wont turn or stop at all lol! Ive never had the abs come on every time i go to slow down...scary!!! I know my tires dont help, but even when i had good tread it was still a death trap. Just to warn ppl, if you get a chance, dont try and drive the car this winter in the snow, you just go sideways and it sucks, all i end up seeing 90% of teh time is the guardrail going sideways, with my steering at full left lock. lol Thats why i cant wait to get this bronco im swapping a 351 into running!

Dah, last year i took my Mustang out too early (may) and it snowed.. had to drive to college, roads were ok but the parking lot, omg, with Bald Potenzas, it was very dangerous...

But you guys just had your first snow ? Look how it looks here since 2 months...

And this snow is NOTHING, we only had 1/2 of what we had of snow till that period last year...

Summmmmerrr

I love driving my stang in the snow, as long as there's no more than 1"-2" on the road. We got some snow over the weekend and the first thing dad did was take his stang out and play. Mine is engine-less at the moment so I had to play in the truck. Open diff=.

I remember one year I took my '85(1st gen) RX-7 out some backroads with about 3"-4" of snow. I couldn't make it up one hill and slid backwards into a ditch. At least the car was so light that we easily pushed it out
