CLAY...WTF! You were born and raised in MICHIGAN right? There is snow here in Michigan and if you think that Colorados weather is any different you are mistaken. As much as you reseach stuff and think things out you might be missing this one.
Anyway dude do what you want but you know how the economy is here (mich) and if you are going for an EVO you'll have to live with driving a forgien car thought for a while....good luck.

A couple of years back I had an '02 GT here in Mass. Can be a real bear to drive in the snow, but traction control helped quite a bit. Sadly I may be getting rid of my Pony too, need the money to finish the work on my house.. Life goes on.

well unfortunatelyhere in southern Cali, EVO = EGO. there's so many idiots(EVO & WRX owners)here that think they are professional race car drivers, it's not funny. if it gets any colder than Los Angeles, i wouldn't go.

Have you ever driven a FWD? It's about a thousand times better than a RWD for traction on snow or ice (or rain, I suppose.)

It doesn't "feel" as good as a RWD (driving just seems better -- and is definitely more fun -- with the car pushing as opposed to pulling you), but in terms of traction, there's no contest between RWD and FWD.

well man, good luck with the evo. those things are beasts, and i am sure you will have fun with one. and dont let all these guys get to you, if they wanna dive in the snow with their stangs, let them. if you dont feel comfortable doing it, then do whatever you need to do, just be safe lol!!

btw, i was pretty close to selling my car and buying one of those at a few points. i really like them, but i didnt want my parents to flip out lol

Drove mine through a foot of unplowed, in a hilly town, on the stock T/As and an open diff. No drama.

Next year: Now that I've got the LSD, it'll either beBlizzaks on the 16" rims, or a beater 4wd truck, whatever's cheaper.

I think the beater, lol.

This may work to your advantage! I've driven Mustangs in Minne-snow-ta for a very long time with no problem. Understood, CO and the Rocky Mountains get a lot more snow, but it's still do-able.

First of all, like was said, if one storm drops 2 feet of snow and nobody is able to get anywhere, then you won't, either in anything less than a 4x4 with mud and snows and a lift kit.

But, get a LSD, which you can justify really easy. The other thing is a good set of Winter tires.

I had a 94 GT with Posi. When I bought it, I found a Mustang salvage yard in Georgia that had a set of aluminum rims off a SN95 V6. I put mud and snow tires on those wheels, and every fall I'd switch from my Eagle ZR's to those. It worked great - never got stuck with that car.

This is an opportunity to add mods in the name of safety - and who can argue with that???? Keep the Stang - you won't have a problem.
