Don't think I would have gotten to far on the stock potenzas with 49k miles on them, anyway

...I need to stop being so cheap and get new tires!

DD on my potenzas all winter FTW.

I had about an inch thick of snow/slush/ice on my front from highway driving. Almost like a not-so clear bra. I ran into another guy (not RAN into him) with a silver Z at a stoplight and he rolled the window down and said "Z's aren't exactly best for snow, huh?" If that was any of you guys.... I couldn't agree more.

Well I thought there wouldn't be to much snow this morning when I left at 6:30 and it snowed and snowed! I got a little scared on 28 when I started slipping a little!!! Finally Jesse came and rescued the car at noon (thank god we have garages at work!) and I got the Jetta. After today I really think fixing the Ford Focus is worth it!!

+1 Honda's are always great to just BEAT on them!! In the ******* State (a.k.a. NJ.....it is definitely not a Garden State by any stretch), you MUST have a DD which you don't care about because people will crash into you in dry weather, and the snow only makes it much worse. Whhyy oh why did I move away from the Mid-A???
