I'm going to laugh when an LS10 comes out

that should be good for some confusion for the LS1 crowd

most older 4WD trucks you see on the road in michigan aren't even 4WD anymore because the case walked on them and they can't afford to get it fixed

that is just what i have had experience with

I thought my T case was fubared, so I spent the day yoday putting one in, 15 mins ago as I'm snugging up my rear drive shaft bolts, I notice something, my pinion goes floppity flip flop all around. I'm uploading a video now. Wonderful...

i'd recommend a 2007 mustang GT.. i've driven it in a foot of snow. our roads are covered in ice for about 5-6 months out of the year.

SVO with snow tires. My did great last winter, didn't get stuck once, just need to know how to drive in the snow.

my 03 durango has treated me well in the snow. we had a couple really nasty snow storms last year and i had no problems at all. and i know you can pick them up with fairly low miles for pretty cheap.

I have a '99 4wd Blazer. Blazer's are awesome in the snow. I had a '94 Jimmy too, that was great in the snow. My friend's mom has a Blazer, '98 I think, and had a '97, both great in the snow.

The only problem I had was when I first got my Blazer and put it in 4wd, and was sliding all over the place, wondering what the **** was going on, Blazers are great in the snow. I finally get where I'm going, pop my hood, and find a busted vacuum line that goes to the actuator on the t-case. I was kinda pissed it was something so stupid, but happy at the same time that it didn't cost a cent to fix, lol.

I thought about getting a Blazer too, but I think I'm just gonna go for economical + good in snow. A cheap 2000+ Neon ftw. Great gas mileage and FWD

thats probably the worst idea i've ever heard.

please do not buy a dodge, let alone a neon, there are a TON of other alterntives, btw fwds just get stuck lol.
