I used to live in Vermont. Found that I didn't much care for driving in snow, though drifting around in the high school parking lot after a snow storm was always fun. Until the cops showed up anyways
. I always had to laugh at the people who would swear that 4WD was a must for winter driving, only to find them in a ditch on the side of the road while I drove past in my FWD Corolla. These were the same tools that would tell me that driving a RWD was this side of suicide on snow. We all love those people right?
Me personally, I wouldn't drive my Z in the snow unless I absolutely had to. Seen far too many vehicles suffer corrosion death for me to want to take chances with my toy. I would most likely pick up a beater and use that instead.
Of course, I live in Orlando, FL now. Not exactly an issue any more. (mid 70s right now, in case anyone is wondering)
