It can be fun with a little snow in an empty parking lot. Bun no fun when there is about 3 feet of it!

I would agree on the 86 Monte part. I had a 88 Cutlass Supreme Classic which was fun to drive in the snow. RWD plus a 302 V8. Although mine was pretty heavy but still fun.

Here is a pic of how cold its been here in western PA. I don't think the tC has ever been in this kind of cold much. It doesn't drop below 0 very often. But this was at 7 am and it was -5 I believe then went to -2 before I thought I would snap a pic. It keeps snowing a bit here and there. Got another 3-5 inches just the past few days. But hopefully nothing much more for a bit. Today it was sunny and hopefully stuff is melting.

O that just sucks. I know that feeling. My dad bought a Ford Focus....had to sell my Cutlass and and he had me driving the Focus. He worked for Ford at the time. Wrecked it twice and totaled it the second time around. I swear the pole jumped in front of my car!! Always sucks to total a car. Still paying for it now....over 5 years later. lol. but o well. We are better drivers now I say. That is how I look at it.

Ya that is wierd how it laid. But the plow people are compete idiots most of the time. I hate when they do that. I guess there isnt much they can do but still it blows. I live on a state road and pendot comes through and ends up leaving a HUGE mound of snow ice and slush at the end of my driveway. Makes me hate pendot even more! lol

Wow that does not look good.....my focus was like that. There was a V in the front. They said if I was going around 5 miles an hour faster I may have lost my legs....lucky me then I thought. We are both lucky we are alive. I still drive agressive sometimes but always smart. I dont push the car too far like I used to. I know my limits and the cars limits. I have calmed way down after the second wreck where I almost lost my legs. It was a wake up call for me I think. Theres more to live for other then driving stupid and ____. lol.

I would hope not either for your sake. I also just washed up the tC and got all that salt off. Tonight there maybe some snow into tomorrow morning but not much at all luckily. Some people were saying last week it could have been another 3 feet....not sure where they got their info. But on average we usually only get 45 or so inches of snow per year total and we are already at 42 I think for the month of feb. Which is crazy!

I agree we have to be responsible when we drive. I have alot of fun and can almost never turn down a race. Just beat a Lancer today on my way home from wally world. lol. But all in fun and never to hurt anyone.
