Hi Im new and HELP!
I have a white 2000 Mustang V8 GT. I love it but I have a problem. Everyone wants me to trade it off for something more reliable, because in the winter I can hardly drive it, it gets stuck in the snow, or in the ruts and takes me forever to get out! I don't want to get rid of it or I'll have to park it and get something for the winter. Anyone have any tips of how I could improve its winter preformance? Like sandbags in the truck or something? Thanks!

RE: Hi Im new and HELP!
Lacey, Welcome.. Because of the RWD, any mustang will have that same problem. What you need to do is buy winter tires, designed for thick ice and heavy snow. Then, you need to put at least 75 lbs. of sandbags in the trunk to help balance out the weight ration. Give that a shot. Good luck and enjoy the site.
