I live in Rochester NY, so I feel your pain.

We've had snow and hail/sleet and salt since Thanksgiving.

I'm now driving a 96 Escort.

Or as my friends at work like to call it, the 200E

I'm in the same club man. The worst part is paying for the car even though I'm not going to drive it for months

I know what you mean.


Not about snow or anything. I just hate it when it rains for 3 or so days in a row, I get close to suicidal. But today it was 70 out, I turned the TCS off, and I had to hit the AC for a bit with the windows down. It was great.

I goto school in Buffalo and I take my Z out everyday, but the problem is that I can't go past 2nd gear when there's fresh snow on the ground lol.

You must be using the summer tires?
Try using good set of all season or snows?
