Anybody winter drive their cars and if so how? Mine stays in the garage as soon as the first snow flake hits the ground cause that's when it starts getting stuck.

Luckily, we've only had a few snow storms in NY this winter, but there were a bitch to drive in...It's actually parking that's the problem, cause the sanitation dept. plows the snow to the right side of the street and buries your car...I've needed help on a couple of occasions this winter to move my car...
But if you have to drive, try to have at least one person with you if possible, cause most likely you will get stuck...but -no big deal, a little push and your free...

I drive mine year round. This year wasnt as bad as I was anticipating though, Ohio didnt really have that much snow. I only got really stuck one time, and that was in my own driveway lol. I went to pull forward to leave, and as soon as I put it in Drive (yes, I have an autotragic), the *** end went straight into the yard. Needless to say, I had to leave it like that since I had to go to work (girlfriend took me in her dads 4wd Phaeton), and it took my step-dad plus 2 other guys to push my car free.

I take the train everyday, and we have had a light winter. Still, just a little bit of snow or ice makes it impossible for me to even get out of the driveway.
