That may be a stupid question but I guess here in Canada, we have to think about it. I'm thinking I may drive my old car in the winter and find a garage for the stang... Then again this is a pricey car that I'd like to drive more than 6 month a year. What do you think?

 

Depends on where I am working.

If I continue to work where I am, which is about 8km from home, then the salty commute is not that bad.

If I have to get a job where I drive considerably farther, example over 20km away, then I would look at getting a winter beater.

 

I live in Pittsburgh. They say this winter will be snowy, but I will still be driving my 05.

 

I wonder if traction control will do a good job on icy or snowy road... I'm in Quebec and every winter is snowy!

 

Yep, when I get mine...it'll see winter...

I guess it depends on how BADLY.

I currently drive my V6 in the snow (with the stock 225s) and its not bad at all.

The new one will handle way better.

 

Down here in Windsor, we don't get as much snow; but yes I would drive my new Mustang in the winter.

As the commercial says "Built for life in Canada"

 

I drove my 2000 V6 (manual) through last winter and I will never drive it in the snow again. I just bought a house with a 25'X30' heated garage and both my Stangs will be hibernating inside from now on. Picked up a used 96' Saturn as my winter beater to get me through.

 

Will drive in winter. 50km round trip per day.

 

Fortunately for you Dan Toronto's winter time isn't as harsh as here.

I think it's a shame to buy a 40000$ car and let it sit in a garage for 5 month a year but then again it would be a shame to waste it in the snow and calcium...

Can't decide yet...

 

Going to let that pony sleep for the winter. Run the 05 here for a winter, and you might have the glass left come spring!

 

I Live in Victoria so I'll be driving mine to the golf course

If I ever get it....Im hearing rumours that if you ordered the IUP that the V6's arent being made!!! I hope this is only a US problem. Im still waiting to hear from my dealer.

 

Live in Montreal, minimum of 60km per day...
I've ordered 4 Michelin X-Ice 215/60/17 to help with all the snow....

 

Hey StangMary, what kind of deal did you get? I'm wondering if Québec dealers are ready to go lower than the MSRP...

 

Hey Preacher,
I have the X-plan !

 

i have the x-plan too I've ordered 4 michelin x-ice 225/55/r17 that I put on my bullitt wheel and I will probably buy the torq trust2 this summer

 

Frank,
Where have you put your order ?? (dealer's name)
I've called at least 5 or 6 dealers before finding one who will accept the X-plan....

 

"LaPĂ©rade ford " it's located at St-Anne de la PĂ©rade B) this dealer have a good reputation for his service.I was the only one to order a gt in August,in the middle of septembre I got my vin and my built date

 

oups I'm sorry Stang Mary I put on the bad button...I know that two others dealers offers x-plan too..it's St-Onge Ford situate in the cities of Grand-Mère and Shawinigan-Sud

 

That's cool !!!
As I told you, in the Montreal area it's more difficult to have the X-plan...
I hope I will have my built date this week.... (I cannot wait anymore !!!! (J'en peux plus d'attendre !!! :bang: ))

 

(moi aussi ):bang: :bang: :bang:
