Mustangs and snow

[96_Drift_Stang]

Just wondering how your stang does in the snow, and also how much snow everyone has gotten so far.

My 96 is actually very very good in the snow...with chains

I took mine out during the last snow and ice storm. I did well, got stuck half way up a hill though. Took me 4-5 tries to get up it though lol. Of course, I have to start in 2nd where ever I go and I still have my drag radials on. I just said forget it this year and parked all the cars. We've got about 7 inches here in beaverton in some spots.

I've only seen ONE in a weeks time.

A little dissapointed but not surprised. I tried to move mine out of the driveway as I was running it to keep warm but it wasn't going to move for me.

Some reason 315 Nittos and snow doesn't work. Any help? =P

Id guess 6-8 inches in federal way drove my 91 lx hatch it isent to bad in snow however ice is no cool. My friends 94 gt does a little better due to its weight i would guess and his evo is outstanding it gets it done for sure awd owns the snow.

 

[SMOKEDYA]

the evo would be sweet! i'd like to get a awd car like a subi. peace

I let my daughter drive my truck in the bad weather and I have been driving her 96 Mustang, it has studded tires and 5 cinder blocks in the trunk, I have had no problems getting around. I have chains also if it gets impossible to go.

Tried using the Cobra yesterday as an auxiliary to my Jeep. Chains didn't cut it and had to dig it out...

I've been driving the wife around all week in our 06' Impreza, that thing just won't get stuck anywhere. No snow tires/chains either. Very impressive!

I have been suffering from cabin fever since the first day of the snow. I have a F-250 Turbo Diesel AT 2wd. This has to be the WORST thing for snow. Useable powerband from 1000rpm to redline 3500rpm, meaning there is ALWAYS somewhere in the 400tq at the wheels. Spins the tires at idle.

I finally decided I was going somewhere yesterday, and spent 4 hours in the driveway digging myself out and testing and digging and testing. Got it on the non plowed streets of lynnwood, and got to where I was going (Puyallup), got stuck when I got to my buddy's house. He had a F-250 4wd, and he pulled me out, and I was fine until I got home again, where I was stuck at the bottom of a 30 foot hill, for 3 hours. A block away from my house. I obviously walked home, and grabbed the shovel and dug my way up the hill.

If you aint smart, you're going to be strong!

I had about a 1ft of snow in my yard in Tacoma as of the last day it snow before it started to melt. I parked my stang the 1st day we got snow. Even that day it took four tries to get it up the driveway. Been rocking the 'Yota 4x4...I love 4low around the backroads when it was fresh snow. Even steep hills the Yota owned it.

Well I'm a little late responding to this one. Mine had to stay home and boss picked me up for work, HOWEVER, I got her out on Christmas Day and low and behold.......the parking lot of the high school I went to was PRISTINE.
Until I got done with it..............
Just right for 15,000 mile break in.

Mine no go....(but neither will my other muscle car which will remain ANONYMOUS 'cause I don't want to be hated here)

 

[96_Drift_Stang]

so you have a camaro huh? lol

 

[natecr]

i used my 91 fox gt in the snow and put some blizzacks on it and does ok.. the 02 gt is better off at home... traction control only helps when there is traction to be had otherwise you cannot accel...

Mine just saw the outside world for the first time in a month. She hates snow and rain.

Since I got the Eagle F1 All Seasons on, I'm able to drive in snow again. That and a big bag of water softener salt in the trunk. Ice still sucks though, and it's usually solid ice from the end of my driveway to the main road.
