It's not about the money at all for me,... its about keeping the car clean.

Mine stayed tucked away in the garage so that I didn't have to spend 4 hours cleaning it again every weekend

Yeah, poor car? WTF?

I drove my STI in the salt for 2 years and you could eat off the bottom of it. This isn't 1992.

Flooring it isn't usually the best approach with ice. There's a snow setting for the traction control in my Lexus GS 400. Makes it feel like the car has no power. But it gets through moderately deep snow and up my icy drive much better with this setting on. Trickier with a stick shift, of course.

Snow is like acid, but more cold, and wetter, and not acid like.
