First snow!
 
Had the first snow of the season tonight...had to go out and play. It took some effort to break the car loose even with these tires...

Cool,,, we have light snow only last few days.

There's not enough snow for you to break loose...:D

No snow, just ice. Lots and lots of ice.

I miss snow :(

I can't wait for the snow to fall here. I REALLY want to see what the SVX is like in the winter. Plus I can't wait for my performance winter driving school in February.:D

Different strokes for different folks---all of mine go in the garage during snows. No chance I am going to get any that muddy or possibly exposed to salty roads. :) We had our first snow 3 weeks ago and have a pretty good chance of snow each of the last 4 days of this week. Ford 4WD Pickup time. :p

If I was trying to keep my car absolutely rust free and mint it would be stored, but it's already been through 15 winters, salt and all, so no reason not to enjoy it. Besides, the Taurus is not exactly a capable winter car. FWD, no ABS, weight distribution so bad that it will simply swing the tail out in a gently accelerating turn...I'd rather the SVX.

WOW! My '95 wagon was pretty darned stable in the white fluff. It did have ABS, but I very rarely got into it, even in in the snow. Maybe I just drive like a grandpa in the snow LOL.:lol:

Granted the Lego does MUCH better in it.

I drove down through PA on Sunday..it was the first real snow I have driven in in about 10 years, my SVX did great. Monday....back up through PA in the snow..again did great. We got snow here today in MA and I opted out of driving, rode with Evil to the grocery store in his SVX. Talk about totally different handling cars...I'd chose mine over his anyday :D

your right...I don't. So I will stick to MY car that grips the road rather than sliding across it.
