Hey I hear you on the snow part, I have three Subies, one in Az for winter driving in the mountains and two in Wi. They don't even know a foot of snow is there, and will handle a lot more, I also have a 99 Dodge Ram 4wd ,bought it new, love it, but when snow comes would rather drive a Loyale or Brat!!!!!!!

I'd rather be driving my '88 DL (which is 2wd for now) than the gmc 3/4 ton that I use as a water truck. It just feels way more stable that the truck.

 

Of course, I can't put 300 gallons of water in the back of a subaru (without snapping the subaru in half), so I'm stuck with the truck sometimes. It also has several more inches of ground clearance for the muddy season.

same here... lol

people need to come to alaska and drive.

 

try taking a mercury sable through thompson pass with 2 feet of snow on the road. We drove from fbks to valdez in 6 1/2 hours (normal trip is 6 hours)

Pushed snow over the hood for 40 miles of the drive.

Although if this here global warming keeps up it wont be like that much longer. That makes me happy and sad all at the same time :confused:

 

tell me about it... this has been the worst winter in my 5 years out here in MT.. snowpack in the mtns is about 50% of average, and down here in the valley it has been in the 40-50's almost all winter.. tis very surreal to be out mountain biking in february..

Thats right. US Alaskans know how drive in the snow (well most of us. :lol: ) I drive in the Ice Races every weekend on the lake. Now thats what I call fun. :headbang: Rock Out

 

Where do they do that at? Sounds like a blast!

 

I'm thinking about running the subaru I just got for $50 in the rallycross next weekend. The entry fee is almost twice what I paid for the car!:drunk:

We have 60cm snow around here in austria, and its snowing again... :-\

 

But I do not drive my Leone in winter, because of the rust. Its sitting in a

garage since october, and I am going to bring it back on the road in march or april.

Its a only-summer-car with 4WD and Dual Range! :grin:
