Winter Mustang Driving, are you doing it?
Who is?
I have never driven my mustangs in the snow and I am not sure I dare to do it. I know how great my foxes are in the rain :p |
It's only a car, I figure let er dangle, SNOW TIRES, Eibach pro kit and 4.10s FTW! HAHA
|
OMG mine don't ever see snow since I have owned it.
The only thing it see's is darkness and the warmth lol I couldn't even imagine the car in snow, i'd be dead. |

The only snow ours ever see's is when we open the garage door to drive the trucks in. I don't think it would get around too well if we did drive it.

Put away until May! Miss it already!

park'er in the heated shed with all the other toys (not my toys) and drive the cherokee all winter, only time i got stuck was last winter in dad's wheat field :)
|
I'm out in victoria so we dont get alot of snow usually, right now we have 2ft or so in my front yard. So no for now, but other wise if we were to get our usuall dusting of snow I would drive it.
|
man i was scared to hell of driving my stang in the snow... sure enough i got hit a week before it dumped.. I try my best to not drive it.... going to kelowna on the 29th by bus to pick up my AWD talon from storage:tup the ultimate winter/off road car:chacha:
|
Talons are great cars for winter. And they are super comfortable.

Thats a joke right? lol
DEAD SERIOUS! :chacha: |
I put my convertible away for the winter and drive my 90 LX hatch 5.0L all winter.
|
My Mustang is more of a 3 season car, as long as there is no salt on the road, I drive it. I have a '95 Civic coupe for the winter.
|
Nope!!!!!!!!

Storage from end of October until April....315/35/17's are not a streetable tire in Ontario:wink:
|
No winter driving for my stang, I plan on keeping it for quite awhile. The winter conditions here in Cape Breton are not the best and lots of salt.
|
81 mustang coupe is the winter car and the 88 Mustang is the summer car.
|
I bought my '03 GT brand new with the intention to keep to the bitter end,so no snow driving for this one.That's what the daily family driver is for.:)

ahhh one of them ehhh? |
I was driving the V6 through this winter until the thing died on me.
The Cobra would just be suicide. |
i drove my mustang home from work last fall/winter the day it got parked, it snowed about a foot, drove home on 275/45/17's BFG G-Force Sports, it turned my 20 minute drive into a 2.5 hours drive, it wasn't pleasent, at that point i vowed to never drive a 2 wheel drive vehicle in the winter, 4x4 is the way to go
|
Driving my 06GT Vert all year round. Just put nice rims and snows on it and no issues. Little cold today though.
|
Come next winter when I get my G2 i'll be driving mine all year round. can't afford another car, so stuck with the stang in the snow

Besides $100.00 cars are the best if you run into something, or someone opens there door and hits your car who cares :wiggle: |
^^ indeed, wreck into a sign and mangle the front bumper, zip tie it on, it's just a winter beater... spring time sell it for scrap, don't even have to store it
