Where are you located?

Yeah, shoulda mentioned that. lol. I'm in the armpit of Texas.

Guessing the fact that it says where you are right under your user name was a little too obvious

Speaking of which, it is snowing right now in Dallas!!

Getting it in houston as we speak ...........

Na, that's too easy.. Plus, it only says shaped like Texas. Now I gotta go figure out how many other states are shaped like ours...

and hell, reading the weather, they're saying it might snow tomorrow!!!

Guess my response might be useful after all.

I live in Southeast Michigan, commute 45 miles one way and drive the Mustang virtually every day. No problems on the stock 235-55x17 Pirelli P-Zero's. Only got stuck once, and that was when we were hit with over a foot of snow and the subdivision hadn't been cleared yet.

I've driven through some big snow storms over the years too.

The only time I had an accident in the snow was when someone pulled out in front of me and I ended up rolling the car over because with FWD I couldn't recover it from the skid.

I think the X-charger and RWD will help prevent that for the future.

That's what I like about my RWD - I find it much easier to control the car, when a FWD car starts to skid it is tough to recover.

I have to admit though, I do miss my 4WD Explorer when we get the big dumps of snow here.

There is an old saying that goes; "The difference between a front wheel drive and a rear wheel drive car is the end you want to go into the ditch first"

I got caught with my GT in the snow a few times, and though it wasn't fun, it wasn't impossible. I just don't like the idea of some idiot sliding through an intersection or to a stop sign and hitting me.
