I drove a 2 WD ranger for 5 winters. It was a complete disaster. I had to have weight in the back or I would slide every where, not to mention, if I came to a complete stop I would sit there with the wheels spinning when I attempted to go!

I drove a 2000 SS all winter last year. I learned to drive a 6spd a couple months before it snowed. I didn't weigh it down at all. It was much easier to drive than my ranger.

I will be driving my TA all winter, unless I come up with the money for a winter beater. I bought my car to drive it! I really am not that concerned. Driving in alot of snow is difficult unless you have 4WD and driving on ice sucks no matter what you drive!


Man, Michigan sucks!

 

Wow, thanks for all the input on the subject. I think that the determining factor now will be the availability of the car, and of course when I am able to get my mitts on those keys for a test drive to see if there is anything that I don't think I'd want to live with.

I think that no matter what happens with the Z, I'll be getting that Prelude, for $75 for a running car, how could I go wrong? And of course, once it gets me through winter, it might not live to see June .
