Winter Fast Approaching In New England
What do you guys do when your mustang is your only means of transportation? I want to buy a beater for winters, but in all reality - I might be moving to CA in about a year so this is possibly my last winter.
I don't have any experience with snow tires, but I'm sure it would help. On my old mustang, I used to throw sand bags in the trunk to weigh it down as well. |
