i disagree, if you can learn to drive a stang or maro in the snow you can drive anything

 

I dont now what to tell you. I'm from FL where today the high was about 75. But my car was actually covered in ice this morning. It got down to like 25 degrees last night. Brrr...

 

[] our high temp was about 30 today, last year we had a day that with wind chills was 60 below, and im in massachussets

 

I went to Atlanta over the weekend and it was a high of 30, with a wind chill factor of about 20. That was unbarable. I dont see how you can survive -60.
My advice to anyone who doesnt know how to drive in the snow would be to move to Miami or something.

 

thanks guys, believe it or not ur tips helped over the last few days

 

I don't disagree with that. But I think it's a lot better for him to learn in a car that he isn't worried about wrecking, atleast on the first trip out in the snow. It's hard to drive in snow period, even worse in a stang. Most of the time it's everyone else to worry about, but he doesn't wanna put the stang in danger if he isn't sure what to do in those conditions. []

My stang has had some serious scares in the snow, it's NOT fun. lol. []

 

yeah, it was fun in the parking lot, but when u hit the road i thought everyone was driving like they were on crack, myself included

 

I don't mind a good fishtail, but only in open space where nobody can hit me etc.

Just be extremely defensive when you drive in the snow. People get really STUPID in rain and snow, I don't know what it is, but a lot of people really can't handle precipitation.

Just take it slow too- I don't care if SUVs go flying by me at 70 mph... I'll still go 20 if I have to because i'm NOT wrecking/flipping my car. People who know what its like to drive a sports car in snow won't make fun of you for that.

 

kinda off topic, but how did u get ur racing stripes done???

 

heh. i live in kansas. driving around on post during snow is funny. im in the military, therefore there are people from all over the country in one place. most of them cant drive in the snow for ****. luckily, either the snow trucks come out and sand the road... or we get the day off at noon.

being in the military does have it's advantages. i dont know of any other job that will give you a month off every year, with another 15-20 days off (that are always friday/monday giving you 3/4 day weekends)
