I know the snow discussion has come up on here before, but . . .
I've ordered an '11 V6 6-speed manual with the Pony package, and it will be my only car. So of course, a lot of people are telling me I'm going to be miserable in the snow.
But I've been thinking:
* When I was a kid, I drove RWD cars in the Rockland County area (including an '80 Mustang with the 200CID six), and I remember doing ok . . .
* The new cars have traction control . . . but then some people say it actually hurts you in snowy driving.
* Does it make a difference that I'm in the New York area versus, say, Vermont? Do any of you have experience driving in the Rockland/Orange/Westchester area?
Many thanks!
