I'm looking to buy a used car to commute to college. The 1999-2004 Mustang caught my eye because it looks like a fun ride and if im going to be commuting i would like to have something fun to drive. I decided that the V8 would be impractical because of the gas mileage and the insurance, so i decided to look into the V6. I do however have some concerns, mostly concerning handling in the snow and icey conditions, im aware these aren't ideal mustang conditions but i was wondering if it handles safely enough so if i get caught in a snow storm i won't be fish tailing all over the place. I have heard that if you add some weight in the trunk then you shouldn't have too much of a problem with it. Anyway im just looking for some input on how people who live in a colder climate deal with their mustang in the winter months.
Thank You.
