Sounds like you need a winter driver. The stang might not be your best choice. I got 2 AWD cars and they work the best by far. I like those on snow and ice not my stang.

My GT is a daily driver and I would say it definitely is suitable in terms of ride, comfort, and power. I've had it in the snow the last couple of days and it's not too bad if your sensible with it. You won't go charging up any slick hills, but it'll get you around it light conditions.

That being said, if I had the money I would keep the Mustang out of the snow and have a 4WD for bad weather. Mostly because I can't stand seeing the salt all over it.

I've had mine parked in the garage since the beginning of November. I've been driving my '04 F150 all winter. Its the first time I've drivenmy truckin the winter, but between the Stang & the truck, the Stang gets to avoid the salt.

You think so? I think the interior on the S197s are far better than the last couple generations. I mean, it's only 90% plastic now! [&:]
