LOL I didnt realize she was a female, I thought we were just poking fun at a guy. Not that a chick couldn't handle it or anything.

Be careful out there and don't do this!

I do not think I could if I tried.

Never having driven in snow myself, I comment, living so close, couldn't she just drive at a snails pace, up one gear all the way home? Perhaps using her flashers to let others know she is in a jam. I do not envy her position.

A 370Z is absolutely fine to drive in the snow with winter tires. I have Bridgestone Blizzaks on. The car is predictable, and handles very well. (Last Monday I was driving to work in knee high snow in the unplowed side streets and even with a low skirt on the front (of the car!) because I have the sport model, the car was fine.)

A 370Z is absolutely unfine to drive in the snow on the summer tires. If you Do have to drive it I agree with the previous advice to take it as slow as you can, put on your flashers, and go easy on the throttle.

mr.tam- i dont know where where the op is, but in my area, if there's a car that was going down a snowy road at a snail's pace, guaranteed rear-ended.

if there's any on-ramps, it's like watching an ant trying to get out of an antlion's trap.

it's a very very sad sight.

Figures. Flashers apparently make a target out of it. I knew that their was more too it, than is obvious to a Californian. Enough from the ignorant.

I also figured that when the OP admitted to a boyfriend, she'd left be on her own. Glad to see a gentleman or two.
