Winter is Coming!!
 
Rain and snow is closely approaching. Will you put your 370z away or will you continue to drive it? No snow where I live, only rain, so I will continue to drive my Z. Discuss.

My little brother went back to college, so I managed to get use of his car for the nasty weather. Only thing is its a 2001 Purple Subaru station wagon

My Z will never see snow,she's barely in the rain

Drove my Z last winter (though not in the snow) and I will drive my new 5.0Z this winter as well (again, not in the snow). :tup:

This annual topic has been discussed before ad nauseum.

Answer 1: My Z doesn't even go outside unless it's over 70F, cloudless skies, and all the streets along the route have previously been street-cleaned in the last 2 days. On any day that doesn't meet these criteria, I ride a bicycle or stay home.

Answer 2: On days with any wintery precipitation, I instead drive a junkyard-salvaged SUV with bald tires that I've somehow rationalized is safer than driving the Z with snow tires.

Answer 3: I equip my Z with tank treads and routinely drive it into the Himalayas as I've found it handles better in snow than an M1A1 tank.

Labor Day. Traded it in and bought the Mustang from Lou Fusz. :tup:

My Z is my only car that is drivable in the inclimate weather, so it will be the one until I can pick up a Titan or Frontier.

Never gonna see snow, and has never seen rain. Thats why I got my Forester.

antman22 09-08-2010 09:03 AM

my Z sees all weather. just went through a monsoon today....ok not a monsoon, but a really heavy rain...it'll probably see a little snow/ice this winter.

Red__Zed 09-08-2010 09:46 AM

It'll see winter driving, probably not snow though...

kenchan 09-08-2010 02:25 PM

if they didnt use salt and this new icemelt crap here i would drive the G and Z but it's too corrosive for my hobby cars... so no, they will hibernate during the winter.

ClemsonWill 09-08-2010 02:26 PM

I rarely see snow in my area. I will continue to drive on dry days.

fuct 09-08-2010 02:29 PM
