just wondering what you guys drove through the winter. me, its my old 1995 mercury grand marquis. thing is so AWFUL looking but it gets me where i need to go when i dont got the stang out.

 

I drive the stang. It looks horrible right now, but it's not warm enough to wash it yet (10*= car wash opens). Somedays, when the weather is horrible enough, I borrow my parents 4WD suv.

 

Unfortunately I have to drive my Mustang during the winter. I try to borrow my moms car whenever possible, but that doesnt always workout. I cant wait for spring to clean my car and put the rims back on!

 

EDIT: sorry, forgot to answer the question: My daily driver is a Toyota Corolla. Not quite in the same range as the stang as far as comfort, ride, etc, but it does get almost 40 mpg on the highway , and it's a Toyota (what else is there to say)

OFF-TOPIC: The only thing I hate about spring is that good ol' Mid-Atlantic POLLEN. Black car + Pollen season = Green car, even if stored in the garage. And, since it's black, it won't hide it at all. Thank goodness that only lasts a couple of weeks.

 

Mostly our '05 Focus unless my daughter isn't looking and I take her ZX-2.

It snowed about 1 inch the other night, followed by at least 1/2" of salt after the snow cleared. The parking lot at work looks like Bonneville.

 

I have my 2000 Escort ZX2
It got me around real good today.
We got our real first good snow of the year 4 inches.
Not a problem at all.

 

i hear ya, the pollen on my black stang is HORRIBLE. 60 seconds standing still and instantly its covered in pollen. hate it

 

Yeah, with pollen you get about 1 minute. Anything else it's about 2 It not even worth cleaning the car during the pollen season, because it is literally dirty by the time you are ready to clean the other side of the car.

Black looks great when clean, but you really have to love cleaning in order to buy a black car, because it only looks good for about 15 minutes after washing.

And, if you look at it wrong, it scratches. But man do they look good for a short time when clean, let alone detailed.

 

I drive Freestyle, my Stang is in the garage since November

 

My Ranger, of course, and loving it. I will be even happier when the Stang comes out of the "Batcave".

 

I have been driving my '06 Ranger since late November. Picked it up when Ford had some heavy rebates on the thing. Dieing to take the Stang out, but I have it convered under limited use ( no driving for 3 months of the year 12/1 - 2/28 )

 

01 Jeep Wrangler for me. Would never give it up for the winter. GT Stays in the Garage!

 

06 Ford Fusion Racecar - sah-weet!

LMAO

 

The Stang is my only car. That engine block heater and heated seats are nice.

 

GT is in Storage til April, or fine Weather hits.

Winter Ride is an 03 SporTac equiped with:
4x4, Block Heater, Battery Blanket, Heated Seats, Interior Warmer,
100 lbs Sand in Back and BadA Tires.

Today's High is -20 C and Low at -27 C

 

i drove my 94 Tbird v8 4.6L baby. car has 207k+ miles and still going

 

**** and i thought my grand marquis had alot of miles (169k)! and its also still goin strong. Found On Road Dead my A$$

 

Ok, I'll go the other way. My daily driver is a '97 Lincoln Continental 4.6L 32V V8 with only 34K on the odo. April 1st the Vert comes out of the garage.

Brrrrr.....it's cold here in Chicago.

 

I drive my car. If the weather stinks I just grab whatever used SUV we have that hasn't run through detail yet.

 

Here's mine, I like it but it's definitely a lot slower than the Stang!
