what do you drive in the winter??

[Poppn]

I have a bit of a problem. I have a 99 SS that I drive daily. I also have a 74 Nova, unregistered and uninsured, waiting in the garage for me to one day build.

I don't wanna sell the Nova, I've had it since I was 12 (my dad essentially gave it to me when I got my license) and I love that car dearly. Plus, I always hear the stories of how "I wish I never sold that car." I don't wanna be one of those people...

Sooooo, how bad of an idea is it to drive the SS in the winter and snow? I'm assuming the corrosion resistance is much better than yesteryear against the salt and whatnot.

I also have the option of buying a 500 dollar crasher to drive in the winter, but I would need a place to store both the SS and the Nova, which would be kinda hard for me to do.

How many of you drive your F-bodies in the winter??

I drive my Camaro year round here in Colorado. (60 degree days in January sometimes) However, If it snows or there is snow on the ground, I drive my 2006 Dodge Ram Mega Cab Diesel with 4x4.

go with a junker, worse comes to worse leave the SS outside and get a car cover for it with a tarp to go over it

2004 silvy 2500hd 4X4 from the fist frost to the last.

I drove my T/A last winter in oklahoma. It wasnt too bad but im a good driver. I was more afraid of others losing control and hitting me.

What is this winter you speak of?????

[StuntmanMike]

I drive it year round, but I also have a '97 Grand Cherokee that I drive if there's snow on the ground or forcasted.

I have to remember to check the weather though, last year I didn't and got stuck driving the 'Bird in the worst storm of the winter. I couldn't make it home from work (30 mile trip), I had to leave it at a CVS 10 miles from home and had to have my roommate come get me with my Jeep.

I drive the same POS that I drive during the rest of the year, 97 Ford Contour with 153k miles and no a/c.

[michaelinchains]

[02Ls1Formula]

Ive driven my formy the past 2 winters but a few months ago I got a Grand Prix and that will be my winter driver.

[Sarge]

I drive the same cars I do year round. Aint no "winter" around here

[doberman 152]

Dont have that problem in Florida.

[Poppn]

I think I've decided on buying another car, Prob a mid 90's Corolla or something as my girlfriend has one and I like it, could prob find one around here really cheap. Then I can park the SS and not have to worry about sliding into a telephone pole or some soccer mom plowing into me at a stop sign

[doberman 152]

I would buy a truck for the winter, trucks FTW

2004 Mazda3 with a 2007 MazdaSpeed3 (Turbo and M6) swap...



or

1996 Chevy Suburban 1500 for when the snow gets too deep for the Mazda...



I'll drive the Trans Am when it's nice out in the winter (happens once in awhile).

[67CamaroRSSS]

Ohhhhh, you mean snowbird season.......

[2002WS6TransAmT56]

I ride the red scooter on nice days to work, 04 Honda Reflex, gets 60 mpg.
The 85 Volvo wagon is my daily driver on bad days or the cool time of the year they call winter here in Alabama, I am from Iowa originally, this is no where near a real winter, lol.
The blue 73 Chevy C10 is backup for the Volvo or when I need to haul crap.

[jaslivers]

drive the yota 4x4... in the winter its snow and in the summer its mud!!!
