How many of you snow belt guys drive year round?
How bad is a 2.3 NA auto in snow?

Danedog311 · November 5th, 2007, 03:09 PM

mine slides in the rain... haven't ran it in snow yet... but looking forward to it

I love snow... I'm throwing some sandbags in the trunk, running studded snows and hoping for the best...

TurboLX · November 5th, 2007, 03:45 PM

lol the 2.3's are much worse then 5.0's in the snow

Danedog311 · November 5th, 2007, 06:07 PM

due to weight i assume?

TurboLX · November 5th, 2007, 06:11 PM

Well I dont have a 2.3 but I wont let my stang touch the snow. But I live in more snow than you guys so I wouldnt even make it out of my driveway i mean 2-3 feet of snow lol need 4X4 for sure. But it will be horible in the snow like anyother rear wheel drive car try throwing sand bags in or something and not spin the tires on the ice.

Well have fun spinning on the Ice because they wont spin on asphalt

jk sorry I had too
