What do you drive, besides the 370Z? Winter vehicle

isayimandrew · 02-09-2017, 10:42 AM

I drive a 2017 WRX STI as my daily. No real "winter" in Texas haha Just random "winter" weather.

Side question for you guys though: For anyone that daily drives another manual car, do you guys feel uncomfortable switching between the two when you first start driving after driving the other? Whenever I switch between the Z and the STi, I have to drive a bit to start feeling comfortable again. Its especially noticeable when I drive my Z around then jump into the STi right after (or vice versa).

No winter snow here, but If it were, I think I'd be ok

SmartCar is my daily driver.

Up here in the 'Great White North' my winter beater is a '16 Tahoe LTZ. Can't wait to get the Z outta winter hibernation.

Toyota Tacoma. I live in the boonies of Ontario...the snow is normally higher than the Z would be. Tires don't make a damn bit of difference....clearance does. The truck is high and four wheel drive doesn't hurt.

Either drive a '13 Grand Cherokee TrailHawk, or a '08 Power Wagon.

I don't think Texas suffers during winter time.
Beautiful NSX though.

2004 Sentra 1.8S for whenever it's below 40F or I have to go to Wal-Mart (or any crowded parking lot).

My second vehicle is a 2015 KTM Duke 390 motorcycle haha. I drive my Z in the rain all the time, and one time snow. Only snowed for a little in Eugene Oregon.
