    Easy now... If I lived in an area where it snowed I would park it for the winter too. Rust is not our friend and all the salt and crap they put on the roads when it snows wreaks havoc on you paint and body. Thats why you never see that many 4th gens out east in Toronto or anything. They rust away to junk. Why not just buy a winter beater and save the money it would cost you to repair the rust and paint damage. Seems pretty smart to me... Besides who the hell drives fast in the snow anyways. Seems like a waste to me to have a quick ride driving slow in the snow.....

    its not the same concept...PAL. rocks, other cars, shit in the road, rust, ice wouldnt hit my new tv like it would my car. and yes my car IS to good to drive in the winter...uhh period.

    I run 4 studs in the winter too. They make a godawfull racket on pavement and don't handle real well but when it gets shitty they sure are nice. I am OK until the snow gets deep enough that the car is dragging its belly. They are super nice when you get on the compacted stuff and if you get caught in torrential Cascade foothill rain the will not hydroplane at all.

    Whatever you say, enjoy driving you POS during the winter. I'll think of ya while I drive my car, not only that, but come spring time when I put my wheels back on, I'll post pics to prove that driving in the winter isn't that bad, as long as you wash it often.
