It's all the other idiots that drive in the snow that are the reason I would never attempt it. That and the fact that I live in a location where our yearly snowfall is recorded in tenths of an inch.


For me it's more the amount of snow we can get in one snow fall. It would be my luck that I head out, then it snows 6-7 inches, and then I'd be stuck until the plows get around. Plus who wants all that salt garbage all over your nice car

I daily drove my 350 when I lived in Wisconsin. It was ok to drive in winter with blizzaks but it sure did suck when it snowed more than 3 inches while at work. Donuts were fun though. I would much rather drive my four wheel drive truck any day of the week in the winter versus the 370 with snow tires. I still use my truck a lot during the summer too. I'd rather the truck take a hit from a shopping cart or a idiots door than the Z. It makes Z time just that much sweeter to me.
