Default Winter Driving in CT

I recently moved to the Cromwell area from SE Michigan and currently have a 2000 mustang 3.8. I am familiar with driving it in a Michigan winter, however I am wondering how it will handle the hills in the area, is this a concern?

You could put some sand bags in the trunk. Agood set of snow tires wouldn't hurt. I would suspect you probably got more snow in Michigan then we get here. Make sure you keep the underside of your car clean, as the state now likes to use the liquid de-icer aka liquid acid.
