Whats your winter beater?
So I took my winter beater out for its first spin of the season and noticed all the thing I've been missing since last winter, like an automatic tranny and a quite ride.

This is my winter beater, 1998 Cadillac deville

Her name's Berta. She's a little smelly at times and likes to mark her territory wherever I park. But she runs like a charm.....most of the time.

Yes. Many Mustang owners are required to buy 2 or more cars, not just one.

Here's mine:



And for "no matter how deep the snow gets":

I just bought a new winter beater, I sold my 07 focus a month ago and just bought a 97 grand prix.

It's not really a beater, it has only 22,000 miles on the odometer, but ... my 2005 Ford F-150 SuperCab 4x4. Had it since it was brand new.
