Snow stangs - let's see 'em
 

Post pics of your stang covered in snow or out in the snow.

here's a quick pic from yesterday morning after pulling into the parking ramp at work...love the snow packed grille, makes the car look even meaner.

Before putting her to bed last weekend. Only snow she'll see.

Yep salt and snow driven car!!! :devil:

There's no salt in my driveway. :slap:

Here's my Ruby Red '14 GT followed by my Sterling Grey '11 Brembo GT. It was actually snowing the day I bought my '11 back in Feb '11. Snow and summer only Pirellis don't mix well! My '14 has all-season Eagle F1 Assymetrics so it actually goes in the snow okay.

Didn't get her undercover fast enough...but dint have to drive in the snow. Pulled right into the garage after this pic for a long winters nap!

Attachment 190161

My 2010 in the snow, the 13 hides in the garage during the snow and I hate taking pictures of it dirty :shame:
Attachment 190160

You still have the 2010?

Sold it to get the 2013 :nice:

This is as close as she gets. In the words of Jean-Luc Picard, "This far and NO FARTHER!!"

And please excuse the Honda photobomb.

Here's mine. Not too bad this morning but the other day was a different story. Stayed in the garage then.

This was from the quick snowstorm we had on Wednesday.

When was that pic taken, Don?

Btw, snowing here in Rockaway right now. Didn't see that coming.

Blizzaks got us over the mountain down 9A from Fishkill to Westchester on Saturday. Interestingly, I discovered I had better traction in the powder, where the tires could really bite into the snow, than in the groove, where all the other cars had worn the snow into a slick dust on the asphalt.

These are from last year, when NY got more snow than the prior 3 combined.

Couple of quick pics after the first snowfall.

Inevitably, it snows the day after a car wash!

Not mine but my daughter sent this to me! :-)

Snowing now :) The most we get at a time is around 1/2 inch, everything shuts (schools some stores, etc.) down. http://IMG 0437.JPG

nice chin spoiler and oem HID's

Thanks :) In 2011-2012 the HID's were a $525 option but as you know, standard for the 2013-2014.

I drive mine year around, nothing like a supercharged hockey puck.

Today.

Spring cannot come soon enough.

Yeah i feel they dont look as good though. The ones you have look more expensive and European.

sad we dont have snow in houston

Fixed.

Was supposed to snow today but alas it hasn't.

6 inches of snow last night.


Attachment 167886

18-24 inches forecast for tomorrow through wed morning. I think even with the Blizzaks I put on the 5.0 may have to stay parked in the garage for a few days.

We just got a skim of snow, but I'm thankful! If we can get an early spring that would be awesome!

Where the heck is that at?

I've heard the revised forecast for the upcoming Nor'easter might be up to 24" in some spots, probably the New England region.

But your area up diagonally through the Lehigh Valley and Poconos into NW NJ and beyond might get hit harder than first expected.

Let's hope they're wrong. Nor'easters can get very ugly.

haha yeh lol! just needs Ken Blocks' 4wd :)

Aww poor Kermit :)

Boston is supposed to be one of the hardest hit places over the next couple of days. We might see winds of 60 plus mph here with sustained winds around 40 mph. Hoping the power stays on throughout.


I'll have some great snow stang pics when it winds down...that is if I can even find the car in the snow drifts. Bring on the Spring!

You want snow stangs? I got your snow stangs right here!!!

:fear:

As close to snow as it's ever going to get.

ok thats nominated for best of the year snow stang

My back hurts and this snow will probably be around for two months. I think my only recourse is to order the mods I have in my build list. :D

Do you often kick a man while he's down? :p

Wow! And I don't like driving my car in the rain, yours is completely submerged! Lolol

Yeah. It's covered and it'll be sitting there for another two months. It's been there since November. If I'm lucky middle to end of March if the weather breaks. I don't mind the snow. Salt on it is a no no.

Only if he tries to get back up.

Such a nice car, Kinda makes me sad :-( I'm not familiar with storage in the snow but what about a car cover?

It has a California car cover on it. My 2000 lived like this for 12 years with no issues. Not saying I would pass up a garage but I have no other choice.

YIKES!!!!! :panic:

I can't wait for spring. Another month and the clock starts ticking. Serenity now!

How do I know that's stang and not a Camaro? Lol

Because snow piled on a Mustang still looks better than a Camaro. :)

Ha ha. Yep.

:rofl:

First and only time my car will see snow when it came off the truck.

Another foot plus today. Dreaming of mods, bbq's, and beer. Maybe not in that order. :)

SACRILEGE!!!

More snow and ice last night.


Attachment 168264

Yeah NJ snow was brutal past few days

Greetings Pilks.....first time I've seen one of your posts. Where in MoCo are you?

Closest to Precipitation my Stang will see... And covered up it still looks better than a Camaro! :-)

Just some perspective. My stang is way in the back. The snows keep coming. 26" blizzard followed by a 15" plus storm a week later with another foot or so on tap from Sunday through Tuesday.

I feel sorry for you people out there! And I'm in Minnesota. :p

I don't really. They're getting a normal Winnipeg-style winter...while out here we're way below normal for snowfall levels. Bunch of my buddies are into snowmobiles (I have one but it's been parked in a bush for years) and all the trails are closed up here. Just not enough snow. No point in the groomers going out.

We've had our share of brutal winters here in Boston. It's happened before it'll happen again and again. Hopefully when we sell this house I can find a house with a garage. My wife will just have to settle for the driveway when we do. :D

I have a double garage...the stang gets one side, the wife gets the other. My pickup lives outside....which is where I would live if my wife didn't get the garage. ;)

We're super low here too, but I'll gladly take it. We were still getting snow in may last year, so I think we deserve it. :heh:

**** right man. Last year was brutal. I ended up taking a trip to Jamaica in MAY of all months because I couldn't take it anymore. This year I'm going to Mexico...but leaving TOMORROW!

Not to jack the thread, but of the participants here, who needs me to have a margarita or 6 on your behalf?

Snow!

Jeebus!!! Another two feet by Tuesday and another possible big storm this weekend coming up. I'll be lucky if I'm driving my car in May.

Wow! So after this latest round of snow, I decided to really shovel out the mustang. I've been periodically taking snow off the car but not as much as I thought I was. After getting to the last shovelful the front of the car jumped up about an inch! I have to clear it out because of the next possible two big storms coming into the Boston area.

Not technically in snow but it sure had been before this picture! More coming this weekend unfortunately

That's sad. Salt looks so terrible on a black car. I'm doubly fortunate to be able to keep my black Mustang in the garage and have another car to use in this weather. Not every is so lucky to have 2 cars.

Whatever you do, NO CAR WASH!!!!!!! Love your wheels, by the way....even if they are disgustingly filthy!!!! :sad:

Thanks man. Yeah def no car wash. At least not an automatic one. I have a real nice manual wash by my house. Great pressure and hot water then spot free rinse. It takes 95% of that corrosive poison off then I spray the wheels with soapy water and wipe off with paper towels. Jet black spray and microfiber towels work great after that if you want. Will not scratch or swirl. Then when it's warm enough she gets a nice hand wash :nice:

My car is buried again. Blizzard here in Boston again. Was supposed to be 6-12 but it's turning out to be a blockbuster again. 18" or more. I'll take pics of my poor car. Next year I a garage.

I really feel bad for you folks in New England.

I realize it's kind of late now, but for those who don't have garages and whose Mustangs aren't DD's, have you considered a self storage facility during the winter? There's one in just about every town her in north Jersey and many have units that will accomodate a car.

Next year I'm going to definitely park the car in a storage unit. This year I didn't think I would have to worry about 100 inches of snow. My car is in my driveway parked with the cover so it's not so bad, it's not seeing salt. I've had it!

If you know someone who wants to do the same, you might be able to get a double sized unit for two cars. It's probably cheaper than two single units and you can split the cost.

I really feel for you guys out east/midwest. I got plants poking through the soil already. However, mother nature can always change her mind and dump on us out here, so i'm not convinced it's early spring just yet

Yeah it really sucks right now. But it looks like it's going to warm up a little bit next week into the 30-40s. Hopefully the snow starts to melt.

That's a good idea. Thanks.

This is my biggest worry. My neighbor's house. I need to remove that icicle tomorrow. It's freaking me out. I have some shovels right below it on my car. 0_0

Attachment 189407

I put snow back on the car to protect it. First time I've had to do that. Screw you winter!!!

Has the icicle fallen yet??

Can't quite get at it even stepping on snow. I'm worried about knocking it down and becoming the next Darwin Award winner. I'm confident now that my shovels and snow pack will protect the car. If it falls its going straight down. I was worried with no snow near the car once it fell it might topple toward car. The brutal cold is here for another week at least.

We got 6" last night. I know that's not that much but it's 6" more than I'd like. Not getting out today but I have to go to work tomorrow. So long clean car. Hello two tone salt and black mustang again. The thing that really ticks me off is it's going to be way below freezing for at least the next 10 days

48 degrees and good chance of rain here in central Indiana on Sunday. I will have to get the Mustang out after the salt is all washed away!
