i might be moving there and wanted to know if these cars are alright going uphill in snow and such... i have a manual with mods listed below

thanks

 

Yea, I do but haven't had the '07 GT in snow yet. Has to be better than the 67 Coupe or the 69 Fastback. I got around with them for years.

 

my friend lives on the top of a mountain where it snows almost every day. let me tell you trying to go up or down that winding thing in my mustang with my pirellis i would be scared ****less. in minnesota i dont do so well in the snow. i would suggestsomething with awdor atleast some blizzak tires and some sand bags in the trunk. if you are aren't going to be driving up and in mountains you will be fine.. depends where in colorado you plan on ging.

 

i live in Utah. i got snow tires with studs and managed to get up a very bill hill in 6+ inches of snow. thats just good drivin j/k

get snow tires and studs for the winter and you'll be ok

 

I live in CO, last year I got caught once in the snow on stock tires, didn't go very well. I drive my audi in the snow, AWD works great. Other people have said they were fine with a good set of snow tires and some weight in the truck.

 

it would be in colorado springs so definetely up in the mountains.
are there any good snow tires that do well with dry performance as well?
or would snow tires be something i'donly need touse in winter?

also what are studs as you mentioned Dex?

 

snow tires only for winter i wouldnt be riding blizzaks at the track or anything.. thats the pain.. your best bet is buying some cheap take offs and just putting some blizzaks on them when winter rolls around... a lot easier than taking your tires on and off your rims each season.

 

Yep, live in the Springs. The tires on our cars suck when it snows. Get some studded or good snow tires on an extra set of wheels for the rears, or leave her parked when snow is on the ground. I got a Suburban for the really crappy days. Good thing is, the snow clears real fast and the streets are clear a day or two after each storm. Except for last Winter which really sucked.

 

The car isnt terrible because the weight distribution is pretty good. But definatly get snow tires, the pirrelies will get you stuck on snow pack pretty fast! And yeah, last winter blew in denver too, the crap wouldnt let up!

 

Uhmmmm, Colo Sps is on the flat. We call em flatlanders. I seldom snows there and if it does, it is gone bu 10 AM. Now to play fair, you folks did get a blizzard last year and we up in the mountains felt for you. You folks don't know how to drive on snow because you rarely see it. We on the other hand see snow 7 months out of the year. That's why we don't consider that Colorado starts at the Kansas line. It starts at Georgetown.
