No kidding man, it had a huge drift on the hood. I had to get to work though and thanks to that tool that hit my truck I have no other vehicle right now. His insurance company is being ****** about the rental too.

Thats really something.. Underage person under influence hits you and you cant even get a rental car? Id go after them for everything I could possibly get. I cant imagine driving my car on a DR in this crap.. I barely got home on all season radials.. Im sure itd help if I wouldve put snow tires on , I just didnt feel like spending $700 for Dunlop Wintersports.

Yeah no kidding I cant stand snow. I can deal with the cold, but F-bodies and snow dont mix. This is the first and last winter I will drive my Bird. People dont understand when I go 30 in the snow. I dont pay attention to them though. Theyre not the ones that have to worry about putting an F-body in the ditch.

I agree, It snowed about 4 inches when I was at school once and I bearly made it out of the parking lot. There was a huge line of cars behind me as I went 25mph down the road and you could tell everyone was getting pissed off. But i'm not gonna put my car in a ditch just to make someone else happy.

I was actually having fun with it for a little while. Locked the trans in second gear and drove through the slide. It was pretty hard getting moving off the line though since I didn`t have any weight in the back. On tuesday I came home from school for lunch and I almost decided to skip stopping for lunch and just keep cruising in the snow .
