I think I might be the only one around here that does.

I do have snow tires on it, but its only a V6 and is my best option out of my cars for a winter car. I don't want to go through the hassle of getting a winter rat for 4-5 months out of the year, and it doesn't make sense with money either.

I used to.



God I hated doing that. Not because of the way it acted but because it's a nice car.

But having 275s made it a pain cause when it was icy/snow it was more than a handful.

I drive the 92 year round ... if there is snow on the roads it can handle a little funny but I put a couple of sandtubes from 84 lumber in the back and that keeps me rolling . I drive the 68 during the winter but only if the roads are plowed
