I don;t know why any of you with signficant investment money wise in your car drive it daily, let alone in the snow.

I get 30-35 MPG out of my 3000 dollar DD car, plus no miles on the stang. Cheap DD FTW!

I drive my Mustang in more snow than that every year. You'll be fine as long as you drive sensable.

They make special tires for what you want to do. I used to have them on my traxxas car.


just get some good tires and drive slow and dont take sharp turns fast and you'll be fine. Its easier than driving in the pouring rain on slicks...

i wouldnt suggest driving in the snow i woke up this morning to 4 inches. I tried to back out of my driveway and slid sideways and almost hit my girlfriends car. ended up taking her car. but ya its not worth risking it and wrecking your car

yeah i just had a snow problem i had to pull my mustang into my garage cuz my dad will be gone for 3 days. i started it from a dead cold start in like two inches of snow. freakin news casters said it would start around noonish so i said to myself... oh, il get up at 10 and pull it in. if you know what your doing it wouldnt be that bad to drive in a few inches of snow, just dont be mad if you get stuck. im usualy worried about the other drivers smashing into me. oh and keep t/c off, it hurts you more than it helps in the snow. i learned that from my past car.

I just tested my snow tires blizzacs they worked great. I would even so and go on a steep hile w/ 4.10 gears. I highly recommend them if you are going to drive your mustang in the winter. Tire rack I got them for $550 shipped to my door. Although next winter don't think I will be driving in the snow with s/c.
