How many Driving your GT all winter?
How many are actually going to drive their GT's during the winter months? Not all of us have the luxury of storing it or want to
I plan on good snow tires, no touch car washes, keeping a full tank of gas and some sand bags in the trunk. Anyone else?

I'm planning on driving mine in the winter as long as I won't be driving in snow. The winters here are mild, and if my office isn't closed I can either work from home or take vacation.

I will be driving mine all winter, in sunny Massachusetts and Rhode Island!
Maybe someday when I grow up ;-) I'll have a garage to park it in and a 4WD pickup to drive in the winter instead . . . but for now if I don't drive it, I don't get to work. Luckily I can work from home quite a bit.
That reminds me, I need to get going on those winter wheels and tires!

Only vehicle, so I'm stuck, not that I'd specifically want to store it anyway. No real plans to do anything, leaving the wheels and everything the same. Snow isn't that bad around here. If there's salt I'll just try to keep it clean.

I know my Mustang isn't as new as those who have posted, but the best advise I can give those of you driving your new Mustang in the snow for the first time is that snow tires make a huge difference. I also put a couple bags of tube sand in the trunk. Keep in mind my 97 GT does not have traction or stability control, with poorer weight distribution and I have been able to manage with the tires and tube sand good luck this winter everyone
