Credit where Credit is Due!

I have to say The Mustangers do drive them in the Snow way more then us Camaro drivers. I live in Mn. We got hit Big time this weekend with Snow. Today I seen lots of Mustangs making the trip down the grezzzzzey roadways. Not One Single Camaro. So Hats off to them Boys and Girls who drive um all year round. Also the the "FEW" Camaro People who also do.

I park mine in the snow and drive the wife's AWD Infinity. I hate that car, but it is the obvious intelligent way to handle a crappy day!

Actually with Rims and tires just like tirerack will offer you, These cars have to be one of the best snow cars made. It is hard even doing a donut in the snow, These are heavy cars and with the traction control they just plow thru the white stuff , , Live next door to you in Wis, And we got only about 3 inches maybe 4 , .

One time I made the mistake of going to Roseau (sp) at the end of December to pick up some units from Polaris. I was in a 3500 Silverado 4x4 - went to bed about 6 PM with a scheduled pickup at Polaris at 7:40 AM. Well needless to say when I went to bed the highway was clear and they had very little snow on the ground. When I woke there was 13 inches of the stuff and by the time I hit ND I was in over 2 feet. Minnesota please keep that stuff up there. Plus keep the minus temps.
