Here in Houston we had Snowpocalypse 2.0. It was our second blizzard in a week. Check it out!

I see your dog at the door looking to go out and play in all that snow.

Schools, businesses and the city government closed that day. Of course the weathermen had been talking about our Winter Weather Warning for days.

Unless that's got winter tires on it, it's just plain stupid. I'll stick with my 4x4 Jeep for this time of year. Usually, the scariest thing on the road isn't the snow and ice; it's the other drivers!

+1

Winter is really hard on cars, not just because of the salt. Driving a nice car in the winter is like wearing an Armani suit to go hiking. You can do it, but why would you? I prefer to use the right tool for the job, and my Jeep gets it done.

Hey! Why a Dr's cars? Some doctors treat their cars well.

Just kidding.

Not too often you will see a car like that but I would.

...
I was actually talking to my GF about cars that would be nuts or cool to drive in the snowy weather IF I had the cash flow. A GTR - you see WRX/EVO in the snow. A SRT8 Jeep would be one 2. Both AWD and would do well in the snow with the right tires.
