Being "forced" to take the camaro isn't a bad thing, but the drive home after work had me a little nervous. We had to stay late to do inventory, so didn't leave until well after 10pm. I get out to the car, and it's covered in ice. Of course, I have no ice scraper in the Camaro - she's my fair weather car! So I let her warm up until the windows were clear, not a big deal. But it was only 26 degrees out, and I still have the P Zeroes on
No big problems, thank God, but the front end (yes FRONT end) got squirrely when I drove over a slick manhole cover. After that, I bet the people behind me were wondering why I was swerving around manhole covers the rest of the way home!
I love Ladybug, and know she has great safety ratings, but unless I get some winter tires, I'll feel more comfortable when I get my SUV back, with it's 4WD and studded snow tires...
BTW - Credit card = ice scraper. Studded tires I can't help ya with.
