I can totally relate to this thread. Today's light snow here in South chicago was my first snow drive with the mustang which I have had for less than a week and have not driven it for more than a day. Let me tell you, exciting!!!! Slip, slide, fish tails. I have driven manual but never rear-wheel with a monster V8, only Frnt wheel four bangers. I think i am going to go home and get the PT Cruiser till everything clears up, to rich for my blood. Cheers!

Actually snow tires are pointless for me. My car was never meant to see snow. I bought a DD beater to get me through, it just failed to live up tomygoal for it.

Rather than run out and drop a grand or more on a stop gap measure, I chose to tough out the last few weeks of winter with the Stang. So the invesment monetarily and time wise for tires would be a waste.

I will invest a few grand this summer in another more reliable mode of winter transportation.

I just hate seeing snow /salt / ice and slush touching my ride.

I can handle the driving aspect of it fine. The intial experience was a bit nerve racking though. I worry about other idiots slamming into her.

I find myself coming up with excuses to stay in when it snows. Sooner or later I will have to go to work.
