Driving in the winter is all about knowing how to drive but you can't hate on someone for wanting an even easier commute by switching to something that's easier in snow.

I've driven my 240 with a shitty welded diff in the winter. It fucking sucked. Did I do it? Yes. But man is having awd so much more easy.

There isnt much water when its below freezing. And the slush there is is a hell of a less less then a rainstorm in spring.  B)

if its a concern, use an airbox (not sure if you got stock or aftermarket cai horseshit or not.)

I think it has a vararam which is right up in the nose. It's 3-4" off the ground. It is a bad idea, period.

i dont think you have driven a winter in wisconsin between the lakes where a 12-18 inch dump in half a night isnt uncommon lol. A lot less common then the 6-10foot drifts the cover every country road, lol. The winters arnt that much different here....yet, i plowed my supercharged 91 mustang gt through it, my 2006 hemi charger, my 2011 challenger, my new challenger this upcoming winter, and sadly on one occasion, my 74 dodge charger 440 big block with 315's on rear and 205's on front.

oh, sand bags in the trunk works wonders, fyi.


Did you have to pull the 'Duel Chutes" to keep it in line in the snow?

So I was supposed to pick up the one with coilovers today but the guy is a prick and sold it out from underneath me an hour before I was going to grab it. It was already under my insurance policy. Looks like if the other one is still around thats it.
